Excellent I2C core for Altera, Xilinx and PLDs for $50.00. Im a FPGA
designer and wacked off about two weeks from developing my own I2C
interface. The great thing about the product was that unlike alot of
the other I2C cores I tried the darn thing fit in an already 90% full
Altera 7256 and worked great in interfacing to the slave PLD
devices. This is the kind of core you can put in the smallest Xilinx
or Altera family PLD and have a cheap interface from any
microprocessor-microcontroller to all your I2C slave parts through
simple registers. It will keep your microcontroller from being
bogged down doing the I2C operation via software. Or you can
integrate the whole thing in you larger FPGA design. The great part
is that Im a consulting engineer and I can reuse the code without
repaying for license fees of the I2C core I bought, and there is no
per product royalty for using it.
