36-wonderphi

This is the technical specification. The deliverable it describes is the full 36-wonderphi blueprint package.

Enterprise blueprint packages settle by wire transfer — their value is above any card ceiling. Request the package below and a reference number is emailed to you straight away. The package ships to you on a Blu-ray disc once the wire clears, so include the address it should be mailed to.

WonderPhi is a complete, three-layer hardware/firmware/software driver system governing all 142 AutoPhi integrated-circuit designs across 14 IC categories. The driver is locked at version 1.0.0 permanently—enforced at compile time by _Static_assert and burned into silicon as Verilog localparam values. It shall never be updated, patched, or amended. Its constitutional law is the 10 Commandments, a set of immutable rules encoded in C #define constants, Verilog hardware parameters, and runtime enforcement logic at every layer of the stack. The package also includes a Python+ChromaDB RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) application for querying the AutoPhi PCB-design knowledge base.
Author: Christopher G. Brown. Company: AutoPhi. Version: 1.0.0 (PERMANENT). Date: 2026-04-05.
Every commandment is defined as a C #define constant in commandments.h and mirrored as a Verilog localparam in autophi_commandments.v. The commandment checksum is the XOR of all ten commandment codes, verified at boot and queryable at runtime. The total count is enforced by _Static_assert(AUTOPHI_NUM_COMMANDMENTS == 10).

Enforcement: the commandment checksum is computed as the XOR of all ten codes (AUTOPHI_COMMANDMENT_CHECKSUM). At initialization, the firmware reads the hardware commandment register, compares it against the computed checksum, verifies the driver signature (0x4155544F ^ 0x50484921), and verifies the locked version. Any mismatch returns AUTOPHI_ERR_COMMANDMENT (-8).

The complete IC configuration table is defined in autophi_ic_table.h as a static array of 142 autophi_ic_desc_t descriptors. Each entry carries: IC ID (1–142), category code, supported-interface flags, preferred interface, register-map size, maximum clock frequency (MHz), base register address (32-bit), and a human-readable name string. Every IC supports all four bus interfaces (SPI, I2C, UART, Custom Bus) via the IC_SUPPORTS_ALL flag. The 14 category identifiers are defined as hex codes 0x01 through 0x0E.
Read section 5 for $1.90
Ten synthesizable Verilog modules define the silicon-level driver, operating at a default 50 MHz system clock. All commandments are encoded as localparam values that are burned into the netlist and cannot be altered post-synthesis.
Read section 6 for $1.90
Thirteen C source files implement the firmware layer, running on the embedded processor. All memory is statically allocated per Commandment VIII and X. No dynamic allocation, no floating point, no external dependencies.
Read section 7 for $1.90
Seven C source files implement the host-side driver, providing the public API for applications communicating with all 142 AutoPhi ICs. The driver opens the device at /dev/autophi0, verifies the commandment signature on open, and dispatches read/write operations through per-interface sub-drivers.
Read section 8 for $1.90
Since the driver can never be patched, resilience is built in. The failover engine (autophi_failover.h) automatically switches interfaces when the primary fails.
Read section 9 for $1.90
The autophi_aes256 module provides hardware-level encryption for all bus communications. Since security patches will never come, the cryptography is built to be bulletproof from day one.
Read section 10 for $1.90
The autophi_watchdog module implements hardware-level self-healing. Because the driver can never be updated, it must heal itself.
Read section 11 for $1.90
The autophi_debug_port module is the primary diagnostic tool for field deployment, since the driver can never be updated.
Read section 12 for $1.90
Every AutoPhi IC—all 142 of them—presents a common register block at offset 0x0000–0x003F with identical layout, followed by category-specific registers at 0x0040–0x0FFF.

Common registers (all ICs):
Read section 14 for $1.90
Absolute register address for any IC and register: autophi_reg_addr(ic_id, reg_offset) = IC_base_address + reg_offset, where IC_base_address is looked up from the IC configuration table (e.g., IC 1 = 0x00000000, IC 21 = 0x01000000, IC 51 = 0x03000000, IC 101 = 0x07000000, IC 141 = 0x0C000000).

All types are self-contained per Commandment X (no external headers):

This package ships on a single Blu-ray disc, posted to the delivery address on your order. The archive on the disc is AES-256 encrypted; the passphrase is sent separately, by email, once the disc is despatched — so the disc alone is of no use to anyone who intercepts it.

Discs are despatched by tracked, signed-for post. Allow 5 business days for mastering and verification before despatch.
