Neither is the NOR we get rid of interestingly enough, Sean told me. The FT2232Ds are $3.80/1K and I am sure FIC will get a much better deal. http://www.mouser.com/Search/ProductDetail.aspx?qs=vnwGVgFuQiZDCvvilrqK0Q%3D%3D > It would cost about 200mm2 PCB surface in total.

Protection is less of an issue if the user can always recover the device, make new bad block table, etc. > But yeah, let's see what physical dimensions we'll come up for GTA03 > and such first. We can lose the debug connector and stick the extra IO elsewhere as discussed before too, remember -- no more nonstandard flat cables either. There is spare IO from the FT2232D so we can drive nRESET from the host too, getting rid of the button. - -Andy -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFH1pzqOjLpvpq7dMoRAs7cAJ9Ol9VWAtA0adHP4/Rj9cKqfoh9SwCeNpwA zBGr0pyxq87nfcAnj3FATKc= =e9qo -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
