Has anyone tried out one of the Digilent Nexys-2 boards? http://snurl.com/nexys2 (product page) http://digilentinc.com/Data/Products/NEXYS/Nexys_rm.pdf (ref manual) I don't see how they can make much money selling these for $99, when most other vendors selling Spartan3E+Cypress FX2 dev boards (fpga4fun, Opal Kelly, etc.) charge 3x as much for significantly less hardware. Or, to phrase it differently, I don't see how the other board vendors are competing with Digilent. This looks like a good platform for custom high-speed acquisition and timing work, and they even give you a C library to program it. You can move 20+ megabytes/second in and out of your PC with one of these puppies. -- john, KE5FX _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
