Except that’s not what he *said* he was trying to do. Thus the confusion and attempt to clarify what he’s trying to do. We now have a half dozen people who are equally confused about the task and no further input from the only person who actually *knows* what he’s trying to do. If indeed you have registers and the like, then they are probably in an FPGA. If you already have an FPGA doing the high speed stuff, the need for the F7 is even more questionable. Yes it’s a $12 or so chip, what needs to be done can be done with a $2 chip. Not only is would it be cheaper. It likely would be faster and easier to get working.
