SVE:new set of vector instructions for ARMV8

SVE introduce new set of register
• 32 Z registers, z0, z1, . . . , z31;

Data register multiple of 128 bits up to 2048 bits, support 8-bit bytes, 16-bit halfwords, 32-bit words or 64-bit doublewords.

• 16 P registers, p0, p1, . . . , p15;

Predicate registers hold one bit for each byte available.

• 1 FFR register.

Special predicate register that differs from regular predicate registers by way of being used
implicitly by some dedicated instructions, called first faulting loads.


SVE is more flexible and efficient than the neon instruction . Target on the multi vector computation such as: machine learning and the graphic .

Competitive Programmer’s Handbook Note.

1.g++ compiler provide __int128_t type 128 bits interger

2.Because the precision errors it's better use subtraction and compare with a small number like(1e-9) than use == to indicate two floating point numbers is equal.

NANO100:Using data flash without the external 12M HZ crystal.

The data flash start address is set by register so it need a reset after update the address, but in default it will use  the external 12M HZ crystal.It's need to modify the CFOSC .

Modify the \SampleCode\StdDriver\FMC_RW set_data_flash_base() function

NANO100:Enable printf use Nu-Link to send massage

1.Add #define DEBUG_ENABLE_SEMIHOST in Library\StdDriver\src\retarget.c .
 

2.Start Keil C IDE debug session and enable the View\Serial Windows\UART #1.

3. Now you can see the printf massage in Keil C IDE.

Octave: Modulation Sine Wave use PWM generate look up table for MCU DAC.

Input the target sample frequency ,sample bits and sample frequency.Generate the duty of PWM(percentage).
Code:
Avoid the negative part cause normally MCU didn't have negative voltage output ability.

NANO100: MCU Sine wave generator - using MCU DAC(Look up table with adjustable amplitude)

1.Generate sample point use octave.

2.Create look up table.use const to store look up table in ROM for less latency.

3.Scale to real data function (for 12 bits DAC the max value is 4096)

nrf52 : Add CMSIS_DSP package in Keil 5

1.Open Manage Run-Time Environment and check the DSP

2.Include arm_math.h
  and  path in your project:Keil_v5\ARM\PACK\ARM\CMSIS\5.0.1\CMSIS\Include

3.Add symbol ARM_MATH_CM4 since nrf52832 use Cortex M4F

4.Simple matrix multiplication code
