Orbit Noise Generator Baseband Board (BiBo)

BiBo performs baseband I/Q data acquistion and generation, data processing and transmission to upstream data servers through a USB interface.

Hardware Components

  • Cypress EZ-USB FX2 - CY7C68013 USB microcontroller, which is an 8051 core with a USB2 interface
  • Xilinx XC3S400-4TQ144C FPGA

First you must upload the firmware onto the FX2. Once the firmware is ready on the FX2. Once the FX2 is programmed, it programs the FPGA by feeding it a sequence of bits or bytes that configure all the gates and datapaths and doohickeys inside.
