- how many NDA signers?
- if necessary, add Albert and remove Palmer
- Richard and John are already on there as well, keep them
- follow up with Brian Richards
- synopsys training is cancelled! too few students
- cad tool documents are located at /tools/designs/Dcdg/docs (open index.html) on BWRC servers
- 28nm early ASIC flow results:
- tile runs at about 1.2 GHz
- whole design runs at about 700 MHz
- critical path goes from queue into a tile then back out into a queue = seems very wrong, need to verify
- parallel correlator architecture seems to perform poorly on hurricane, so we’re going to try streaming architecture
- for debugging poor performance
- write custom hurricane code as “golden reference"
- add complex multiply instruction
- stevo: come up with fake antenna array properties and propose them to dan (data rate, # antennas, etc)
- stevo: come up with tape-out TODO list to get a sense for how long this will take (can we meet January deadline?) (consider: verif, LVDS, PT, timing, RTL changes, pad-frame generator)
