Abstract
This paper presents an open and flexible digital phase-locked loop optimized for laser stabilization systems. It is implemented on a cheap and easily accessible FPGA-based digital electronics platform (Red Pitaya) running a customizable open-source firmware. A PC-based software interface allows controlling the platform and optimizing the loop parameters remotely. Several tools are included to allow measurement of quantities of interest smoothly and rapidly. To demonstrate the platform's capabilities, we built a fiber noise canceller over a 400 m fiber link. Noise cancellation was achieved over a 30 kHz bandwidth, a value limited mainly by the delays introduced by the actuator and by the round-trip propagation over the fiber link. We measured a total latency of 565 ns for the platform itself, limiting the theoretically achievable control bandwidth to approximately 225 kHz.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
