Validation Notes
2024-03-23
isoSPI can sometimes fail on the AFE side. When AFEs are not reading back values correctly and isoSPI signal looks “suppressed” on the scope, it’s likely an AFE side issue. Try probing the line with no AFE connected.
IMPORTANT: Balancing and thermistors are going to be left unimplemented until mockup is complete. There is currently a smoke that works with balancing on the afe_validation branch. num_devices in the config may need to be changed so note that before running the project.
