Hi, I'm about to start a new project, and am looking for an SBC to use for prototyping. I need something with a VGA output and an ethernet interface. A CF-type drive or HDD as well. I'd prefer a powerpc board, but it's not a requirement. If anyone knows where I could acquire something like this at a decent price (

looking for 32 bit cpu with MMU, FPU and fairly high throughput benchmark (> 300 MIPS) that is not PowerPC or Pentium based... trying to stay clear of Intel, AMD, Motorola, AMD.... any recommendations/experiences ? thanks!

hi guys, can anybody provide the older version (beyond 2005) of ocd commander software for powerpc 603e target thanx

Hi, I am doing the simulation for a system-on-chip project, the processor is PowerPC and in my code I have something like this, int main (void) { print("Hello \r\n"); print("ByeBye --\r\n"); return 0; } But in the simulator I can only see the "\r\n" after "Hello", I can not see it after "ByeBye --". Instead I see all are 0x8, which is BackSpace. I just wonder ...

Ah, Saturday. Time to sit down and play with this PowerPC board. I installed a series resistor so the COP port on the board is supplying IO power (3.3V) and fired everything up. But Commander gives me the dreaded 03; cable disconnected error. If I query registers, I get either all 0s or all 1s (randomly, it seems). The only thing I can do is reset - that DOES work, so I know the interface ...

hi there, first of all, let me just thank anyone who has taken the time to read this post. needless to say, i'm kinda at the end of my tether trying to figure out what the heck is going on ... what i'm trying to do is run mv linux on an embedded PmPPC7448 PowerPC-Based processor pmc module my linux kernel is 2.6.10 and the artesyn board has the following configuration, CPU: MPC7...

I strongly suspect it is the 8051 core. It has good maturity and is produced by many many companies. Yet the 6502 onwards were more popular before the 8051 was (am I right?). What about the 68H11? is it popular at all? Ive seen many references to powerpc-based MCUs but never bothered to dive in. Are they used around much? I was opening an MP3 player at home and gave myself an exercise to...

Hi. I'm looking for a 32-bit kernel with preemptive multitasking (realtime is not required). It should be simple & lightweight, and be written in hardware independant C (with full sourcecode). Considering that my project requires a TCP/IP stack, I would prefer a kernel for which such support modules have already been ported. This is for replacing an 8-bit system to PowerPC. While I do...

I've just realized that the box causing one of my shelves to bow down in the middle is a complete Xilinx ML403 PowerPC+FPGA evaluation kit, with the USB-JTAG adapter and all the other goodies that it originally included. It's vanishingly unlikely that I'll ever use it again. I guess I should list it on eBay; anyone have an idea what it's worth? Thanks.

Many years ago when dinosaurs roamed the earth, there was the x86 and then there were the viable contenders. That list was headed by MIPS and PowerPC with others as "also ran". With time none of these architectures kept up with the megalith Intel's forces and the x86 took over the world resulting in the extinction of the dinosaur. In more recent times the focus has shifted from raw po...

One of our customers will be asking us to implement a bunch of math functions on an FPGA-boards. There are a lot of "decisions" that affect control processing/algorithm selection, so they specifically requested an FPGA with "PowerPC." (This immediately tells me Xilinx's marketing has done an A+ job of getting managers and other non-technical people to subconsciously associate 'FPGA CPU' wi...

Hello. I am looking at some possible processor architectures for future products. Intel offers some Pentium III and Pentium M derivatives plus chipsets that include peripherals and graphics controllers with 2D acceleration. I have browsed through Freescale page looking at their several PPC families. There are some very interesting SOCs based on medium to high end CPUs (which I guess...

Hello, We are searching high and low for a set of header files (and C files?) for the powerpc 555. tpu_pta.h is what we know we need. I think there is also an associated C file (tpu_pta.c) but I'm not certain we need it. Anyone have a clue? Web searches are turning up very little. Briefly, I've got a group of students trying to use the timers to figure out how long a signal is high f...

Hello, I've been coding in C/C++ for quite awhile for Linux and solaris. My next assignment is in Embedded systems (PowerPC, VxWorks or Embedded Linux) and I have no experience in it. What are the surpise waiting for me in embedded systems? Could please suggest some good reading meterails? Thanksm Jeeva.

I am new in 32bit embedded systems. Can you advise me what architecture I should choose for learning and future projects with embedded Linux? At the moment I am a bit confused because of the following information: 1. x86 has the "inherited inefficiency" - I do not really know what it means. 2. x86 has the higher overall cost - After looking for SBCs I can not confirm this rule. ...

Why is the assertion BUG_ON(in_interrupt()) in __get_vm_area_node? I have been getting this assertion after running my application for several hours. Any ideas what may be the cause? I am running Linux 2.6.26 on a PowerPC.

Hi, I'm trying to write a graphics demo program on an ML-300 board with embedded PowerPC CPU and 128MB of RAM, no graphics acceleration chip. I got the linux kernel running, and have been advised that regular X11 will not run because it takes too much memory and I need to run some other memory-extensive tasks on the background. Does anyone know of a good widget toolkit that can solve...
