Hi everyone, we have a modified microblaze (mblite) on top of which we added an fpu and everything is implemented in an FPGA. I'm now facing the issue to generate a toolchain for this platform [1] and I have some doubts on how to proceed. First I'd like to say that I haven't found a single one release from Xilinx that I can potentially rely on. Several Xilinx webpages point to a ve...

Hi, We currently do most (all) our embedeed FW testing on either real HW (if available), using FPGA, or using HW simulator and Verilog models. We are looking at performing more testing on the "Host" rather than the target, and since this is new to our group, I am looking for suggestions and comments. BTW, we use C, currently we don't use an RTOS, but going forward, this is something that we wil...

Hello all, I've had an enquiry in about a project that is mostly simple enough, I'll be using an FPGA for what's required, the fly in the ointment is the client wants the thing unit via TCP/IP. All the ethernet interface is going to be used for is driving and reading internal registers, it could very easily be done via RS-422 (which is an option) but it looks like they definitely want TC...

Hi everybody!! I'm a spanish strudent on Systems Engineerering, and I'm very interested on microcontrollers and its applications. In my degree I've been working with two types of them, a Spartan FPGA and a Motorola MC68HC11 microcontroller. I also know that is usual to use PICs as small microcontrollers. But a question is rounding on my mind, because I don't undestand completely which are...

hey! i am using spartan 3E board to transmit UDP packets to my pc. I have implemented most of it, i have interfaced the PHY but there seems to be one problem, the data leaves the FPGA bt the packet is dropped at the pc's end, how i know it is that i can see the light blink bt nothing gets through to ethereal. I am assuming that my crc32 is not correct as i have double checked my other headers, t...
