\subsection b3xx_misc_multdev_sync Multi-Device Synchronization
|
||||
|
||||
Multiple B310 devices can be synchronized using a shared external clock and PPS signal.
|
||||
Connect each device to either the same 10 MHz reference and PPS source or via multi-device sync cable. Then, use
|
||||
`clock_source=external` and `time_source=external` if using a shared 10 MHz reference or `clock_source=sync` and `time_source=sync` if using the multi-device sync cable.
|
||||
|
||||
When all devices are configured with matching sync sources, the multi-device session
|
||||
will run the synchronization procedure automatically during initialization (resource names for the devices can be found via uhd_find_devices):
|
||||
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.cpp}
|
||||
auto usrp = uhd::usrp::multi_usrp::make(
|
||||
"resource0=<resource0>,resource1=<resource1>,clock_source=external,time_source=external");
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
This procedure must be run during initialization for the ADRV9032 transceiver chips to synchronize correctly. The cabling for the multi-device system must be connected before the session is initialized.
|
||||
For the 10MHz external reference clock, the setup is similar to other USRPs and is documented here: \ref sync_commonref_pps. For USRP B310, a new method of synchronization was introduced using the SYNC
|
||||
port on the back of USRP B310 and a separate multi-device sync cable. The multi-device sync cable is a mini HDMI to eight SMA cable,
|
||||
four of those SMAs (PFI 0-3) carry a high-frequency reference clock (either 122.88MHz or 125MHz, depending on the session master clock rate) and the other four SMAs (PFI 4-7) carry
|
||||
a PPS signal exported from the B310 that is connected to the SYNC port. This can be used to synchronize up four B310s.
|
||||
Any of the four B310s can be used for the mini HDMI connection, but this connection must be setup before the UHD session is opened. A diagram can be seen below for connecting four B310s using the multi-device
|
||||
sync cable. NI recommends using the accessory '791010-01 - USRP MULTI DEVICE DIRECT SYNC CABLE, 0.3M', orderable through ni.com or your local sales representative.
|
||||
This cable breaks out the mini-HDMI (HDMI Type C) to 8x SMA.
