How much are the devkits? Can an Actel do 1x PCI-E gen1, or usb2/3? (the other interface of note might be thunderbolt.. http://blogs.synopsys.com/tousbornottousb/2012/03/30/ti-supports-thunderbolt-thunderbolt-pricing/ ) I'm thinking this looks like it would work pretty good for an openshader devkit too... http://devbisme.webfactional.com/blogs/devbisme/2011/06/02/simple-vga-interface-xula-fpga-board I am currently looking for an opencores or1k or or1200 I can fit on a XESS Xula2 board. I'm still stuck with the crappyness of the FPGA dev toolchains. The Xilinx ISE I'm trying to get installed to make bitstreams for my xula2 is multi-gigabytes. Going back to xess.com, for: $14.95 (stickit motherboard) $14.95 (stickit vga module) $119 (xula2 XC6SLX25) --- ~$150 total, you get a usb-connected module that can do VGA. _______________________________________________ Open-graphics mailing list [email protected] http://lists.duskglow.com/mailman/listinfo/open-graphics List service provided by Duskglow Consulting, LLC (www.duskglow.com)
