Team Status Update for10/3

This week, our team was spread pretty thin across lots of outside priorities. As a result, we are somewhat behind schedule. However, we did plan our project with the mindset that we would dedicate more and more time as the semester goes on, so the first week of our schedule was intentionally easy to account for an issue like this. As a result, we feel we shouldn’t have a problem making up the time next week. We looked through our…

The sampler is still something I have to study and understand so I can properly take in input from the MIDI at a consistent clock rate. Starting next…

The test suite was completed and I am quite proud of how useful it is. Here is a subset of the files I created this week. Omitted is a template SystemVerilog +…

I finished reviewing Joe’s code, and now that the test environment is mostly finalized, I’m not as wary of jumping into writing my testbenches. I think I didn’t really get as much done as I wanted to,…
