09:55 <d1b2> <dave berkeley> I'd like to be able to add bitslices of signals as named traces for a VCD dump in pysim.py I have a payload Signal. I'd like to be able to generate a named trace for slices of that payload. Is this something that the replacement for Record will be able to do?

22:17 <d1b2> <josuah_dem> So, you ask things that people would consider trivial, I conclude you are asking in the right place!

22:19 <josuah> @VA3TEC-Mikek-14362: I think lawrie played with amaranth since early on, these projects might have been built for an earlier version of Amaranth

22:32 <josuah> documentation contributions might be going onto here: https://github.com/amaranth-lang/amaranth/tree/main/docs

23:15 <d1b2> <VA3TEC-Mikek-14362> HaHa 🙂 Thanks! Yes, So Good news I figured it out! I was putting in the wrong io standard, and voltage setting. it was from Lawrie's project. I was able to get past that part ! Now it's dying on the pin names, The code I am using using is adding a "" in the pin name, and Quartus does not like that. I think it's a python finger problem. Still going through it. I am still learning python, :). Other good news I finally

23:15 <d1b2> broke down I bought the Siglent SDS2000x Plus. with the logic probes. HAPPY happy Joy joy! Now just to have to get some twittly bits on the screen!! 🙂 Thanks Josuah! Appreciate your helpful comments! 🙂

23:21 <josuah> a cheap logic analyzer is also convenient and some cheap clones of a discontinuited do a good job for very low speeds, such as I2C/SPI/UART/...

23:22 <josuah> https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005003649856071.html <- this can be plugged directly onto a PMOD, and then has the right pinout. It works with Pulseview (open source)

23:22 <josuah> mind to offset it by 1 pin to avoid connecting Gnd to Vcc though...

23:23 <josuah> I think you can get ScopeHAL to work with Siglent scopes in case the built-in features feel short

23:23 <josuah> very nice feature to have keyboard mice available on them!

23:24 <josuah> hah, 16 digital channels, you'll likely not need any of these cheapo chinese things
