Hi Goran ... You have to pay for micro blaze don't you ? John. Goran Bilski wrote: >MicroBlaze will fit the XC2S200 and you would get around 65-70 MHz. > -- http://members.optushome.com.au/jekent |

MicroBlaze comes as a part of the Embedded Development Kit (EDK) from Xilinx, in the form of a netlist and with a host of peripherals. It costs $495 right now and can be bought online at the Xilinx web. ----- Original Message ----- From: "John Kent" <> To: <> Sent: Thursday, March 20, 2003 7:57 AM Subject: Re: [fpga-cpu] Transputers [ was What are peoples opinion of the AlteraNios Processor? ] > Hi Goran ... > > You have to pay for micro blaze don't you ? > > John. > > Goran Bilski wrote: > > >MicroBlaze will fit the XC2S200 and you would get around 65-70 MHz. > > > > > > > > -- > http://members.optushome.com.au/jekent > > > To post a message, send it to: > To unsubscribe, send a blank message to: |
