micheleandClaude Sonnet 5 44be4a7d81 docs: reflect flash #1 removal and the N=4 8/8 timing recovery
Datasheet and pinouts.md updated to the current, real state after
today's session: flash #1 was implemented then removed (user's own
MHz-over-persistence priority call), the clock-closure table now
shows the post-revert, post-DEC-0042 numbers (N_SLOTS=4 @ 64MHz 8/8,
worst 64.55MHz/best 72.37MHz; N_SLOTS=8 deferred by explicit user
request), and the FPGA_DATA_READY any_pending formula is updated to
the real counter-based implementation (credited to the user's own
diagnosis) that fixed the last failing N=4 seed.

Compiled clean (45 pages, 0 errors).

micheleandClaude Sonnet 5 7d6311bce3 feat: two-flash programming architecture, FPGA_DATA_READY, real JTAG/config pinout
Establishes the real ESP32<->ECP5 programming architecture: flash #1
(neural-network data, existing V1 subsystem, ball reserved not yet
wired into V2) stays separate from flash #2 (boot bitstream, MSPI
auto-boot, CFG[2:0]=[0,1,0]); ESP32 talks JTAG only (bit-banged, no
hardware JTAG-master peripheral on S3/C6), updating flash #2 through
the ECP5's own internal sysCONFIG-to-SPI bridge, never driving the
flash pins directly -- zero bus contention, confirmed against the real
Lattice hardware checklist and sysCONFIG user guide.

Adds real, verified ball assignments (official Lattice CABGA381 CSV +
Project Trellis iodb.json) for JTAG, PROGRAMN/INITN/DONE, CFG[2:0],
and the MSPI dedicated pins -- all written to docs/pinouts.md.

Implements FPGA_DATA_READY as real RTL: a system-idle detector
(dependency_manager's any_pending OR neural_director's !queue_empty OR
any active slot), sticky on the busy->idle edge, self-clearing on new
work -- not a per-neuron completion pulse, which was confirmed too
fine-grained. Bit-exact regression re-verified at N_SLOTS=4 and 8
(zero cycle-count change), new explicit data_ready assertion check
added to the D-Stress testbench (PASS both configs), and a fresh
Yosys+nextpnr-ecp5 placement check (0 errors, data_ready placed at G3).

Also fixes a real, independently-found bug while editing an adjacent
file: nms_neural_multiprocessor_sdram_unified.v's own sdram_a port was
still [11:0] (12 bits), stale from before the 64MB/13-bit memory
upgrade. Not exercised by the real board-level top (which wires SDRAM
directly, bypassing this wrapper) but WAS silently truncating A12 in
every D-Stress simulation this session, including today's earlier
ERR-0029 verification runs. Assessed impact: all D-Stress test
addresses used this session decode to rows under 4096 (bit 12 never
actually needed), so no false-positive PASS is believed to have
resulted -- but the full 64MB space was never actually exercised
through this wrapper. Fixed; re-verified bit-exact with identical
cycle counts.

See decisions.log DEC-0041 for full detail.

micheleandClaude Sonnet 5 81a9619214 chore: remove root-level V1 duplicates, superseded by hardware/v1/ freeze
hardware/v1/ was created (dc0b331) as a frozen snapshot of the V1
project that then lived at the repo root (rtl/, sim/, synth/, tools/,
docs/). Root received zero further commits to those files after the
freeze -- confirmed byte-identical to the hardware/v1/ copy for every
file removed here. Root was the "before", hardware/v1/ is the
curated, canonical "after".

Removed (all verified exact-hash duplicates of hardware/v1/ content):
  - rtl/ (20 files, 100% covered by hardware/v1/rtl/)
  - tools/{netasm,pinout,run_regression.py,flash_catalog,validation,
    fpga_benchmark.py} (19 files, 100% covered by hardware/v1/tools/;
    tools/neural_sim/ kept -- unique, post-freeze, no counterpart)
  - sim/*.v (47 testbenches, 100% covered by hardware/v1/sim/; the
    ~38 remaining sim/ entries are compiled binaries and .vcd
    waveform dumps, left as a separate cleanup decision)
  - synth/ecp5/{p2,p4,p8,post_fix_verify} (25 files, exact duplicates
    of hardware/v1/synthesis/; the other ~84 synth/ecp5/* experiment
    build directories are historical artifacts never carried into the
    freeze, left as a separate decision)
  - WORKLOG.md (duplicate of hardware/v1/docs/WORKLOG.md)
  - docs/{FPGA-Neural-Datapatch-Benchmark,FPGA-Neural-Hardware-Design,
    FPGA-NeuralNetwork-Engine}.md, docs/validation/*.md (18 files),
    docs/FPGA-Neural-Datasheet-{EN,IT}.pdf -- all exact duplicates of
    hardware/v1/docs/ content
  - hardware/v1/docs/DatasheetLatex/ (24 files) -- exact duplicate of
    hardware/v2/docs/datasheet/files/docs/datasheet/en/ (discovered
    during this audit; not the same DatasheetLatex already removed
    from hardware/v2/docs/ in an earlier commit)

Moved (genuine, unique, post-freeze V2 content -- not duplicated
anywhere, just living in the wrong/legacy root docs/ location):
  - docs/architecture/*.md -> hardware/v2/docs/architecture/
  - docs/pinouts.md, docs/FPGA_NEURAL_V2_DATASHEET.md,
    docs/FPGA_NEURAL_V2_SCHEMATIC.md,
    docs/FPGA-Neural-V2-Datasheet-EN.pdf -> hardware/v2/docs/

Left untouched (separate decisions, not part of this cleanup):
  - docs/FPGA-Neural-Flash-Subsystem-Verification.md, docs/
    v2-description.md -- orphaned root-only content, no duplicate
    found anywhere, but also not part of the reviewed plan
  - synth/ecp5/* experiment dirs and sim/*_sim + sim/*.vcd build
    artifacts -- not literal duplicates, flagged as candidates for a
    future, separate cleanup pass

Verified no functional breakage: grepped all remaining scripts/docs
for references to every removed path -- only prose/comment mentions
found, no executable imports or build-script paths broken.
