-- WS2812 "GRB" LED chain driver module

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--

-- Author: John Clayton

-- Update: Oct. 19, 2013 Started Coding, wrote description.

--

-- Description

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-- This module outputs a serial stream of NRZ data pulses which

-- are intended for driving a chain of WS2812 LED PWM driver ICs.

-- Actually, the WS2811 is the driver as a separate IC, and the WS2812 is

-- a complete RGB LED pixel with the driver built right in.  As costs drop

-- the popularity of this device is rising.

--

-- The datasheet seems to indicate some very specific timing requirements.

--

-- A '1' bit is apparently 0.35us high, followed by 0.8us low.

-- A '0' bit is apparently 0.7us high, followed by 0.6us low.

--

-- The datasheet also states that Th+Tl = 1.25us +/- 600 ns.

--

-- Well, based on that, this module chooses to use 1.25 microseconds

-- per bit time, which corresponds to 800kbps.  Internally, the system clock

-- rate is divided by 800000, and the result is the number of clock cycles

-- per bit available for creating the serial bitstream.

--

-- Then, constants are determined based on CLKS_PER_BIT according to the

-- following formulae:

--

--   CLKS_T0h = 0.28*CLKS_PER_BIT

--   CLKS_T1h = 0.54*CLKS_PER_BIT

--

-- This means that the timing will be closer or farther from ideal,

-- depending on the SYS_CLK_RATE.  For example:

--

--   Fsys_clk = 50 MHz

--   CLKS_PER_BIT = 62.5 which is rounded down to 62.

--   CLKS_T0h = 17.36 which is rounded down to 17.

--   CLKS_T1h = 33.48 which is rounded down to 33.

--   This leaves 45 clocks for the T0l time.

--   This leaves 29 clocks for the T1l time.

--

--   For this example, the bit time is 1.24us.

--   The T0h is 0.34us and T0l is 0.9us.

--   The T1h is 0.66us and T1l is 0.58us.

--

-- The lower the SYS_CLK_RATE, the tougher it is to meet the stated timing

-- requirements of the WS2812 device.  Using this scheme, the lowest clock

-- rate supported is 20 MHz.

--

-- The LEDs are driven with 24-bit color, that is 8 bits for red

-- intensity, 8 bits for green intensity and 8 bits for blue intensity.

--

-- I stopped short of calling it an "RGB LED driver" since WS2811/WS2812

-- receives the data in the order "GRB."  The ordering of the color

-- bits should not really matter anyway, so let's just be very accepting,

-- shall we not?

--

-- After the entire sequence of serial bits is driven out for updating the

-- GRB colors of the LEDs, then a reset interval of RESET_CLKS is given,

-- where RESET_CLKS is set by constants.

--

-- Interestingly, it seems that sending extra color information will not

-- affect the LED string in a negative way.  So, for example, if there

-- are only eight devices in the string, and the module is configured to

-- send out data for 10 devices, then the first eight devices will run

-- just fine.

--

-- Yes, that is correct, the LEDs closest to the source of sdat_o get lit

-- first, then they become "passthrough" so that the next one gets lit, and

-- so forth.

--

-- This module latches color information from an external source.

-- It provides the c_adr_o signal to specify which information

-- should be selected.  In this way, the module can be used with a variable

-- numbers of WS2811/WS2812 devices in the chain.

--

-- Just to keep things on an even keel, the c_adr_o address

-- advances according to the following pattern:

--

-- 0,1,2,4,5,6,8,9,A,C,D,E...

--

-- What is happening is that one address per LED is getting skipped

-- or "wasted" in order to start with each LEDs green value on an

-- even multiple N*4, where N is the LED number, beginning with zero

-- for the "zeroth" LED.  Then the red values are at N*4+1, while

-- the blue values are at N*4+2.  The N*4+3 values are simply skipped.

-- Isn't that super organized?

--

-- This unit runs continuously, the only way to stop it is to lower

-- the sys_clk_en input.

-- LPD8806 "GRB" LED chain driver module

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-- Author: John Clayton

-- Update: Apr.  8, 2013 Started Coding, wrote description.

--         Apr. 10, 2013 Simulated and tested in hardware.

--

-- Description

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-- This module outputs a serial stream of clock and data pulses which

-- are intended for driving a chain of LPD8806 LED PWM driver ICs.

--

-- This type of LED driver is commonly sold pre-built into strips

-- of LEDs, with each LPD8806 circuit driving two multi-color LEDs.

--

-- The LEDs are driven with 21-bit color, that is 7 bits for red

-- intensity, 7 bits for green intensity and 7 bits for blue intensity.

--

-- I stopped short of calling it an "RGB LED driver" since lpd8806

-- receives the data in the order "GRB."  The ordering of the color

-- bits should not really matter anyway, so just be happy, OK?

--

-- The first bit, the MSB, is set for updating the LED colors, and cleared

-- for resetting the drivers.  Therefore, after each sequence of color

-- information bits, about 24 bits of zero are sent out to reset

-- everything in order to be ready for the next update.

--

-- This module generates its own serial bit clock by using a DDS based

-- on the underlying system clock rate.  It has been suggested that

-- 2 MHz is a good number, although I'll bet many other speeds will

-- also work, both higher and lower.

--

-- Another DDS generates the update rate pulse, which kicks off

-- the updating process.  Beware, if one sets the update rate too

-- high, it may become impossible to transmit all the required color

-- bits, and so the LEDs at the end of the chain may get left out

-- of the process!

--

-- Yes, that is correct, the LEDs closest to the source of SCLK

-- and SDAT get lit first, then they become "passthrough" so that

-- the next one gets set, and so forth.

--

-- This module latches color information from an external source.

-- It provides the c_adr_o signal to specify which information

-- should be selected.  In this way, the module can be used with

-- different numbers of drivers and LED pairs in the strip.

--

-- Just to keep things on an even keel, the c_adr_o address

-- advances according to the following pattern:

--

-- 0,1,2,4,5,6,8,9,A,C,D,E...

--

-- What is happening is that one address per LED is getting skipped

-- or "wasted" in order to start with each LEDs green value on an

-- even multiple N*4, where N is the LED number, beginning with zero

-- for the "zeroth" LED.  Then the red values are at N*4+1, while

-- the blue values are at N*4+2.  The N*4+3 values are simply skipped.
