hi wan,
regarding your question on roach I/O:
in about a month, roach will be running BORPH,
a linux operating system for fpga's
(the operating system we use on the BEE2).
in BORPH, registers, block rams and fifo's
in your simulink design appear as linux files
which you can read and write.
you can learn about borph in video lecture 3,
by hayden so:

best wishes,
dan

Hi all:
I just could not find any documents in casper web site talking about the
control software running in the PowerPC.
So my first question is how can I use the interface between FPGA and
PowerPC? For example, how can I design a block memory which can be
written by ADC module and can be read by PowerPC?
The second question is there are only external PowerPC on the ROACH. So
the PowerPC firmware can not be loaded by FPGA bitstream. So how the
PowerPC firmware will be loaded in the ROACH? How the software will be
customized according the FPGA configuration?
The third question is I can not find ROACH software fold. Anybody could
tell me when it could be available?
Thanks
Wan
