Roach in a balloon....
Just an idea if some engineer wants alot of work to do. One could put a whole ROACH into a tiny circuit board these days using the new Xilinx ZYNQ chips. It is a multi-chip module w/ high end Xilinx and 2 ARM cores. It would of course require recompiling all the ROACH IP for use w/ ARM. But the resulting hardware would be small, and not use alot of power. It would be a fun project.

To: [email protected] Message-ID: <[email protected]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Has anyone flown a ROACH board on a high altitude balloon? Did it work? Did you make any engineering changes for this challenging environment?
