offtopic: i'm surprised byuu doesn't like Rust with all of the things that they want out of C++
<rqou>
although having type-level integers would be really really helpful
<cr1901_modern>
Short version (I don't want to talk about it): byuu is not fond of Mozilla period.
<rqou>
i mean, i'm not either
<rqou>
mozilla seems to have totally lost their way, but the Rust team seems reasonably unaffected for now
<rqou>
although tbh i feel the entire "web infosec people" just seem to love doing user-hostile things
<cr1901_modern>
In any case, you'd be the 50th person to suggest Rust to him :). He's relaxed a bit, but suggesting it used to be a good way to get him to rant.
<rqou>
idk, byuu seems to have a really unusual coding style
<rqou>
but then i guess i do to, and my style fits Rust better

<rqou>
lol you actually do movies?
<awygle>
it's a thing my dad and i do together
<awygle>
otherwise i wouldn't pay for a theater seat
<awygle>
lol the scientific name for the black rat is "rattus rattus"

awygle: Ahhh yes I go and see that tomorrow
<rqou>
awygle: "first board with [m]ore than two layers+BGA, be gentle" :P :P :P
<cr1901_modern>
Unfortunately, my taste in movies is considered suspect by others *cough* zino *cough* (I _liked_ BvS: Dawn of Justice)
<awygle>
rqou: (and actually cr1901_modern if you don't mind): while i'm looking at this, are there any other things along the lines of "how do i do decoupling good" that you feel or felt unsure of, or that were never explained well?
<rqou>
i mean, i never learned PCB design "for real" even at $FANCY_SCHOOL
<rqou>
my PCB skills are basically entirely self-taught based on looking things up on the interwebs and just building boards
<rqou>
(and then we wonder why we can't find talent, blah blah blah <insert usual drama here>)
<cr1901_modern>
Put two caps, for each IC, one w/ 10s more capacitance to cancel out the inductive effects of the other. Nothing you don't already know :P.
<cr1901_modern>
10 times*
<awygle>
rqou: sure, and there are a lot of people like that. i'm just wondering what you feel are the holes in that transfer of knowledge.
<awygle>
thinking about writing some blog posts maybe
<rqou>
i'm in general not super good at decoupling or analog/rf
<rqou>
since i'm mostly a "digital" guy
<rqou>
despite having my extra-class ham radio license lol
zino has quit [Ping timeout: 240 seconds]
<awygle>
hm, don't install both the 3-pins and the SMAs for clock
<awygle>
depending on clock rate i guess
<rqou>
i specifically want the 3-pin to allow you to cheat and not care
<rqou>
about signal integrity
<rqou>
i'm hoping that it won't degrade a "real" clock signal too much
<awygle>
sure, but if you _do_ care, the pin will cause a stub
<awygle>
the hole is probably fine, but the long pin may not be
<rqou>
what if i just install only one or the other?
<awygle>
that should be fine yeah
<awygle>
why do you have a jumper from ground to ground?
<rqou>
for clipping scope probes
<rqou>
yeah yeah i know, should get the springs
<rqou>
azonenberg uses special thingies specifically designed for you to clip probes, but i find that a pin header is cheaper :P
<awygle>
yeah i'm with you there :p
<rqou>
ugh digikey changed their favicon and now i'm confused whenever i look at my browser tabs
<awygle>
rqou: this looks fine
<awygle>
i'm a little bit uncomfortable with the 40 MHz clock routing
<awygle>
specifically in the bottom left quadrant where it does a few jumps back and forth from top to bottom
<rqou>
yeah, i was trying to avoid the gap in the power plane
<awygle>
because the reference plane change isn't handled _totally_ optimally
<awygle>
(you have a 3V3 to GND cap nearby but not like, _right_ nearby)
<awygle>
also how much current do those oscillators drive? they might not expect that much loading
<awygle>
but again, both of those things are probably fine, i'm just nitpicking
<awygle>
(also you still didn't widen that 5V trace to the plane :p)
<rqou>
lol oops
<rqou>
afaik these are supposed to be "lvcmos" output drivers on the oscillators
<rqou>
so probably fine?
<awygle>
i'd personally throw on 3 fiducials if i were you but if you're never gonna get this assembled out of house, nbd
<rqou>
oh yeah fiducials are a thing
<rqou>
meh, probably won't bother
<awygle>
oh and definitely include your mounting holes in your paste layer. it makes alignment waaaaay easier.
<rqou>
how do i change that in kicad?
<awygle>
check f.paste and b.paste in the pad properties
<awygle>
under technical layers
<rqou>
ah ok
<rqou>
and now the 3d viewer is like "oh, you want solder paste over this hole?"
<awygle>
well yes there's that lol
<awygle>
your mask expansion is such that you have no webbing on the upper left quadrant qfp
<rqou>
yeah
<awygle>
idk if it would even be fabbed though, they might just clip it
<rqou>
yeah, i didn't realize it, but that footprint _sucks_ to use
<rqou>
who the heck makes QFPs with exposed pads?
<awygle>
yeah course, fine pitch qfp with a thermal pad
Bike has quit [Quit: Lost terminal]
<awygle>
they combined my and azonenberg's nightmares
<rqou>
cheap though, 90 cents each on digikey
<awygle>
rqou: RF people do sometimes which is weird. low inductance grounding... and then hella lead inductance.
<rqou>
oh, and the exposed pad is mandatory
<rqou>
it's the _only_ gnd connection on the chip
<rqou>
to maximize IOs i guess
<azonenberg>
awygle: yeah i dont get it
<awygle>
that's not that uncommon these days
<azonenberg>
why not go bga?
<awygle>
i mean QFN is the ideal rf package in a lot of ways, sadly
<awygle>
BGA isn't too bad either
<azonenberg>
*wirebonded* qfn? :p
<awygle>
idk, lot of machine capacity
<azonenberg>
can you say L?
<awygle>
azonenberg: lol yeah ok
<awygle>
fair point
<azonenberg>
IMO the ideal RF package is flip chip WLCSP
<rqou>
all of these packages are wirebonded
<rqou>
even the bga
<awygle>
aka "non wire bonded QFN" :p
<awygle>
anyway i'm done rqou. i didn't run azonenberg's checklist, so maybe do that, but it looks pretty decent to me overall.
<buhman>
WLCSP looks like a ~regular BGA; why is it special?
<azonenberg>
buhman: there's no fan-out
<azonenberg>
a "normal" BGA you wirebond the die to a FR4 substrate then put solder balls on that
<azonenberg>
a flip-chip BGA you solder-bump the die to a FR4 substrate then put balls on that
<awygle>
there are lots of things labeled "wlcsp", too. it just means "the package is not much bigger than the die".
<rqou>
uh, not necessarily
<azonenberg>
but in both cases the pacakge is much bigger than the die to allow for saner PCB design rules
<rqou>
there are some wlcsps with polyimide layers
<azonenberg>
whereas with a WLCSP, you basically put solder balls on top of the wafer
<azonenberg>
then dice it up
<awygle>
c.f. TI's XSON nonsense
<azonenberg>
and that's your packaged chip
<rqou>
azonenberg: what's polyimide "advanced packaging" count as then?
<azonenberg>
awygle: in my taxonomy, a WLCSP means you put down a polyimide layer over the wafer
<azonenberg>
solderbump it
<azonenberg>
then dice it
<azonenberg>
and call it done
<azonenberg>
i.e. no package, no fanout
<rqou>
but there are WLCSPs that don't need the polyimide layers
<azonenberg>
at most, a thin layer of epoxy or black paint on the back of the die to keep light out
<awygle>
azonenberg: i wish we lived in a world where things were as clean as they are in your ~religion~ taxonomy :p
<azonenberg>
there are plenty of chip scale packages that are other designs
<rqou>
azonenberg: don't like "shy" RasPis? :P :P
<azonenberg>
but WLCSP implies wafer-level packaging
<azonenberg>
So you cant have any fanout because, well, the package is built on top of the wafer and then diced
<rqou>
also, azonenberg, now that you're here, can you please take a look at my board?
<buhman>
where's this board?
<azonenberg>
in a few, have some higher priority stuff to do
<rqou>
so, i'm about to order "the cheapest LEDs i can get" again
<rqou>
i wonder if i will end up blinding myself?
<rqou>
i did the "¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 330 ohm" thing
<awygle>
you definitely will go blind and should do the math
<rqou>
but the math is hard :P
<awygle>
so is LASIK
<rqou>
lol
<awygle>
(idk if that's true or even relevant but it felt appropriately snarky)
<rqou>
btw another recent birbsite thread that i found pretty funny was Fiora asking for "halp, i want a calculator for presumably LEDs and stuff but don't want a complicated ECAD tool"
<awygle>
there's a piano someplace outside my apartment but every time i get up to go look for it it stops playing
<rqou>
actually, thinking about it more, why is engineering so inaccessible?
<rqou>
it shouldn't be this way
<awygle>
i agree wholeheartedly
<awygle>
this is why i hate when people are like "lol circuitmaker" or whatever
<awygle>
"lol arduino"
<awygle>
those tools serve a crucial role
<awygle>
also why i have huge respect for people like e.g. manishearth, who work on docs and onboarding and all that good stuff for inherently-complex projects like rust
<rqou>
ZOMG WHY ARE CONNECTORS SO EXPENSIVE
<rqou>
i just added like $50 worth of connectors
<awygle>
lol yuuuup
<awygle>
and those are mostly cheap connectors too, except the SMAs
<rqou>
yeah
<rqou>
these are just generic right-angle pin headers
<awygle>
idk why. the charitable answer is "material cost" but idk if that's actually it.
<rqou>
wtf why do dip switches have a "washable yes/no" selection?
<awygle>
depends what you need to dip them in
<rqou>
hey um, dip switches are standardized dimensions, right?
<rqou>
ie "DIP sized?"
* awygle
shrugs
<rqou>
what's the exact difference between "frequency stability" and "frequency tolerance" on a crystal?
<awygle>
frequency tolerance is "difference from ideal at 25C"
<awygle>
frequency stability is is "difference from 25C over operating temperature range", usually
<rqou>
hmm, so i assume for the ft232h i need <= 30 ppm for both
<awygle>
sometimes you get non-temperature stability values like "over 10 years" or whatever
<awygle>
temp is unlikely to be a serious issue for you since they're probably specced at least 0/70 and you'll be in like... 20/30
<rqou>
whee, this board is going to cost me half a grand including parts
* awygle
reiterates low-cost fab options
<rqou>
well, it's $350 in components
<awygle>
yeah that seems high
<awygle>
connectors?
<awygle>
or CPLDs?
<rqou>
$50 is connectors
<rqou>
a bit over $200 for CPLDs
<awygle>
ah ok
<awygle>
well *shrug* i guess
<rqou>
and then everything else like LEDs and crystals and shit
<rqou>
also any passives i might need (but i think i have usable ones in my parts bin that predate the current shortage)
<rqou>
azonenberg: willing to say how much your Coolrunner-II board cost?
<azonenberg>
rqou: cant begin to guess
<azonenberg>
it was like 4 years ago
<rqou>
is $500 for my board about right?
<azonenberg>
bare pcb or parts too?
<azonenberg>
does that include a stencil?
<rqou>
pcb+parts
<azonenberg>
my CPLDs were way cheaper than yours
<rqou>
hmm
<rqou>
5m40z is 90 cents
<azonenberg>
the 2c256 is under $20
<rqou>
but the 5m2210z is like $20
<azonenberg>
$19 or so
<azonenberg>
the 32a was, at the time, about a buck
<azonenberg>
then 64 and 128 plus one more for the crossbar
<azonenberg>
so maybe $50 in cpld total
<rqou>
hmm so this should be about the samr order of magnitude
<azonenberg>
i also had pmod only, no sma's
<rqou>
oh, this is for 3x boards
<azonenberg>
good smas are $5-10 eachj
<azonenberg>
... oh
<azonenberg>
that souds totally reasonable then
<rqou>
i didn't include the SMAs
<awygle>
Oh if that's 3x then yeah
<rqou>
yeah, it doesn't make much sense to spend so much effort and make 1x board, does it? :P
<rqou>
even azonenberg made 3x
<awygle>
I usually build 2. But I'm usually just building for me.
<azonenberg>
i normally do 1 of most of my designs
<azonenberg>
i do 3 if i'm using several, like my jtag dongle (i think the only board i've ever done >1 prod run of at oshpark)
<azonenberg>
Or, in this case, if i want boards to sell/give to other people
<azonenberg>
since i gave one to you and one to diamondman

<rqou>
i have some on hand but not all
<rqou>
whee, hirose didn't do anything dumb and their micro-b footprint is compatible with their micro-ab footprint
<rqou>
azonenberg: why are NP0/C0G capacitors so much more expensive?
<azonenberg>
Not entirely sure, probably tougher manufacturing tolerances or something? idk
<azonenberg>
in general i got X[5|7]R for decoupling
<azonenberg>
Y*V has terrible performance under bias
<rqou>
yeah, i know
<rqou>
i get NP0/C0G for crystal load caps only
<azonenberg>
NP0/C0G is good for RF or when you need precision values but for decoupling IDGAF about the exact value, i just want decent C/V
<rqou>
at least for now
<azonenberg>
i generally prefer to use oscillators to crystals
<azonenberg>
infinitesimal increase in cost, i can feed directly to an FPGA or clock buffer
<azonenberg>
less passives to place, less noise sensitive layout
<rqou>
hrm, i'm seeing ~$2 for an oscillator, 40 cents for a crystal
<rqou>
quite significant for higher volumes
<azonenberg>
infinitesimal when you have a $300 FPGA on the board :p
<azonenberg>
I dont do cost optimized high volume designs
<azonenberg>
i mostly do one-offs that have high BOM cost in capital components and where system cost is dominated by PCB NRE and engineering time
<rqou>
ouch, once i put in all the "misc" the final parts order is $380
<azonenberg>
Which is why i have so much focus on conservative "right first time" design practices rather than pushing limits of how cheap i can go, how few decoupling caps i can have, etc
<rqou>
my wallet :(
* azonenberg
looks over at $1200 digikey cart pending for LATENTRED
<rqou>
anyways, i'm placing the parts order now even though i totally don't have to
<azonenberg>
that's for one unit, not counting PCBs, and that's only the major ICs for the brain card
<rqou>
but it's unlikely to change, unlike last-minute PCB tweaks
<azonenberg>
i dont think i have the buffers for the backplane either
<rqou>
btw azonenberg, do you have a chance to look at my design?
<azonenberg>
i looked at the screenshots you tweeted
<azonenberg>
didnt do a full design review
<azonenberg>
thats what the checklist is for
<rqou>
i uploaded the kicad file to github
<azonenberg>
nice, but i dont have time to do a full review
<rqou>
my only concern is that i have funky-looking internal planes because of where vias get positioned
<awygle>
It's not great. It should be OK if you don't need much current.
<awygle>
And assuming decoupling of course
<rqou>
current isn't too high
<rqou>
how can i do better?
<awygle>
Hard to see how much latitude you have but if you can swap which side you break out on for some of those balls, you might get the 1v8s closer together
<awygle>
Otherwise... Do the remnants of that plane end up thicker than the biggest trace you can fit? If not, run traces instead maybe
<awygle>
Tough to do a *lot* better on 4l
<awygle>
Maybe change the 3v3 breakouts too so you can go around the outside of the dense section
<awygle>
That make sense?
<rqou>
but that doesn't really help the gnd vias getting in the way?
<rqou>
ooh i think i see
<rqou>
hrm, that would be annoying
<rqou>
is this "good enough?"

<azonenberg>
rqou: as a general rule, i just use the Long Thing as a "signature"
<rqou>
what is that thing btw?
<azonenberg>
It's a bit of family lore that goes back about 15 years, lol
<azonenberg>
We had an L-shaped bunk bed with my brothers on a double mattress on the bottom and me on top in a single
<azonenberg>
No ladder, you had to stand on the bottom bunk to get to the top
<azonenberg>
one of them was on the bottom bunk as i climbed up to the top
<azonenberg>
I was a skinny teenager and from his shallow-angled viewpoint i looked even skinnier
<azonenberg>
made some comment about me being "so long it made him sick"
<azonenberg>
so of course my brothers took that quote and ran with it
<azonenberg>
and invented this species of creatures called "long things" that were 7-dimensional monsters that could ooze through a hole the size of a quarter
<rqou>
wtf
<rqou>
you guys are all a bunch of nerds
<azonenberg>
had eye stalks (that they called eyelids, but they were really on stalks)
<azonenberg>
left radioactive slime trails of "long juice" behind them kinda like alien slugs
<rqou>
i don't have a super consistent signature, but recently i've taken to hiding nyan cats under QFPs
<azonenberg>
they like to ooze slowly down pipes too, and sometimes get jobs as plumbers cleaning out clogged pipes from the inside
<azonenberg>
Long juice also is an excellent lubricant so they often work as mechanics too
<azonenberg>
Anyway, many years later i had ally draw a long thing off my brother's description
<azonenberg>
the resulting image started out as a full color drawing but she traced it to line art and i made a kicad symbol

<rqou> $50 is connectors
<cyrozap>
rqou: Are you not buying the connectors from AliExpress?
<rqou>
I've also done that
<rqou>
they're objectively worse
<cyrozap>
They're 2-row 0.1" right-angle headers, right? That seems like it would be pretty hard to mess up...
<rqou>
i bought the cheapest 0.1" pin strips a while back and they don't solder as reliability
<rqou>
i still use them for quick hacks though
<awygle>
mine melt
<awygle>
almost immediately
<awygle>
the pin melts away from the plastic
<awygle>
oh also remember all my complaints about lead-free soldering? turns out the solder i bought was not sac-305
<cyrozap>
rqou: How did you measure "solder reliability"? If something isn't soldering for me, I usually just apply more heat/flux depending on the situation.
<awygle>
(despite the clear labeling _saying_ it's sac-305)
<rqou>
how did you find this out?
<awygle>
by using actual sac-305
<awygle>
(borrowed from a friend)
<awygle>
actually what first tipped me off is that the sticker says "rosin core" and there was no visible flux
<rqou>
cyrozap: mostly qualitative assessment of how much heating i needed before the solder would properly wet the pin header, compared to the other pin headers that i acquire from Fry's
<qu1j0t3>
awygle: Yeah, mine melt too (PVC?) -- but my iron is likely very hot (not temp controlled)
digshadow has joined ##openfpga

ugh. that feeling when your code _almost_ works but also is _almost_ too complex to safely modify and you have to decide whether to refactor or get to functional first.

<azonenberg_work>

and, unless I'm mistaken, you should be able to implement (or at least closely implement) an ASIC in an FPGA
<qu1j0t3>
ZombieChicken: I assume you already asked in #prolog? specifically ttmrichter?
<ZombieChicken>
qu1j0t3: I asked, but it's a bad time of day for that kind of thing
<ZombieChicken>
I thought 'maybe someone in #openfpga might know something'
<qu1j0t3>
ttmrichter might grep his literature library for you, but yeah, google doesn't really turn up anything.

awygle: i assume the fun is compounded by *) my father has paid for my digikey orders (his name in bill to, my name in ship to) before and *) my father was ordering parts at the exact same time
<awygle>
yeah i guess so
<awygle>
but it still implies weird things about their backend to me

tfw you think a machine is down because you are pinging 192.168.1.* instead of 192.168.0.*

<rqou>
i don't know why they don't have problems with dorms/apartment complexes/companies though
<rqou>
oh wait they do
<rqou>
i remember getting a call from a confused customer service person at digikey when i tried to get an order shipped to Foothill
<rqou>
but yeah, it seems they're too smart for their own good
<awygle>
pie___: argh illegal local subnets are a particular pet peeve
<awygle>
err okay i guess that's not illegal
<awygle>
"unexpected" then :p
<pie___>
more like i forgot xD
<rqou>
IPs here at $WORK confused me for a moment because they start with 172
<rqou>
but not 172.16
<rqou>
ie they're public addresses
<awygle>
i always forget 192.168 is a /16 not a /24
<awygle>
rqou: nobody uses 172.16 :p they all jump straight to 10
<rqou>
i used them
<awygle>
more people should use 169.254
<rqou>
i usually use them for local test nets specifically because most people don't use them
<rqou>
can't do that because many of my test nets were actually routable
<awygle>
sure there's lots of times you can't use it but people don't even think about it
<rqou>
e.g. i put equipment management interfaces under 172.16 but normal PCs under 192.168
<azonenberg_work>
yeah my home network is all 10
<awygle>
also tons of people are wrong about how IPv4LL, DHCP, and mDNS (and DNS-SD for that matter) interact. like what's required when.
<rqou>
so both need to be non-link-local
<azonenberg_work>
and i just make lots of /24s under that
<azonenberg_work>
but i am trying aggressively to move to all-ipv6
m_t has joined ##openfpga
<awygle>
so fe80::/10 :p
<azonenberg_work>
i still need v4 for some legacy gear but i want to have most stuff that doesn't touch the internet be v6-only in the not too distant future
<rqou>
ipv6 source address selection is still a bit screwy
<rqou>
i probably need to start running real routing protocols :P
<awygle>
i need to learn more about ipv6 than "128-bit addressing"
<rqou>
or actually go write my "systemd-everythingroutingd"
<awygle>
especially things like slaac that are relevant to my interests
<azonenberg_work>
i use slaac exclusively
<azonenberg_work>
however i do need to fix something on my network and i may need to make one or two boxes statically assigned
<azonenberg_work>
tl;dr if you have the same box slaac on multiple interfaces
<azonenberg_work>
its a bit tricky to figure out which route it will use
<awygle>
no dhcpv6?
<azonenberg_work>
especially if some of the slaac endpoints are private subnets that don't route out
<rqou>
dhcpv6 doesn't disable auto-assigned addresses by default
<awygle>
ooo jumbograms
<azonenberg_work>
I dont like dhpv6, and this issue is only a problem if you connect to multiple subnets and some go to the internet and some dont
* awygle
plots
<awygle>
does ipv6 solve the checksum thing that you hate, azonenberg_work?
<rqou>
and yes, i have the same problem as azonenberg_work
<azonenberg_work>
and i only have one box that does that
<azonenberg_work>
awygle: no, it *introduces* it
<azonenberg_work>
ipv4 UDP allows you to have an optional chcksum at layer 4
<azonenberg_work>
the layer-3 checksum is headers only, then layer-2 is at the end of the frame sanely
<awygle>
ah i see where my confusion was now
<azonenberg_work>
ipv4 TCP, and all IPv6 TCP/IP, require full payload checksums at layer 4
<azonenberg_work>
And it's at the start of the packet
<awygle>
oh so ipv6 doesn't have a checksum at all, but requires udp to have one? that's weird
<awygle>
fuck your layers amirite
<rqou>
did i ever mention the hilarity that my father once ran into with checksums?
<rqou>
my father used to do a ton of "tunnel good-protocol (e.g. Ethernet) over shitty-telco-protocol-layers (e.g. T1)"
<rqou>
at one point somebody was working in the simulator and was noticing that a particular checksum never changed
<rqou>
but further tests showed that it was indeed correct
<rqou>
turns out two of the layers both specified a checksum
<rqou>
with the same size and polynomial
<awygle>
lol that's great
<awygle>
hm, do jumbograms actually work? udp length is only 16 bits
<rqou>
afaik 9k packets do work
<rqou>
but i don't usually run them
<awygle>
lol "just set it to zero" that's a totally reasonable solution
<awygle>
jumbogram is "ipv6 allows packets of length UINT32_MAX instead of UINT16_MAX"
<rqou>
qh ok
<rqou>
i don't know anything about that
<awygle>
turns out they do work and you just set the udp length to 0 and use the ipv6 length plus some math
<awygle>
(they also appear to have caused a lot of CVEs lol)
<rqou>
ipv6 has caused an absolutely ridiculous number of CVEs
<awygle>
that makes sense to me
<awygle>
and i doubt it's ipv6's fault in most cases, just people making v4 assumptions and forgetting about them

well the ISDN exchanges only send up to 20 digits (really ascii chars) per message
<jn__>
awygle: as far as i understand it, POSIX defines PRIu64
<rqou>
afaik nobody actually uses that
<gruetzkopf>
didn't find a message-count limit though, you'll get more and more messages until you send back either "yeah, ringing" or "nope, not here"

So i called the pro desk at the home depot to ask what was going on, they said they'd look into it
<azonenberg_work>
I swung by the store a few minutes ago to buy some unrelated stuff and stopped in to see if they had any updates

awygle: (although %jd is probably a more reasonable way to do it than the standard way)
<azonenberg_work>
Turns out, they faxed the purchase order (yes, the vendor still uses faxes) over to the vendor's corporate office
<azonenberg_work>
Corporate then lost the PO and never forwarded it to the local warehouse that was going to fullfill it
<rqou>
how do you keep managing to use the most assbackwards vendors?
<azonenberg_work>
not entirely sure
