SGMII Interface
Not quite on topic - but I thought somebody here might know - Does anybody know where I can get hold of the SGMII spec (Used on SFP modules, esp. 10/100/1000 copper)? All I can find in the SFP/PHY datasheets that I've looked at so far is references to the data bytes being repeated 10 times (Which doesn't help... 14 Dec 2005 16:27

MMC(MultiMedia Card) interfacing with FPGA
Hi We are trying to interface a 16MB MMC(of Infineon) to Spartan-2 FPGA ... We have designed reader for card(in VHDL) abopting MMC protocol(not SPI) and this card is supports 2.7 to 3.0 standard ... Before designing its writer i want to test reader ... and before that i want your suggestions ... :) ... 13 Dec 2005 12:47

some new PCIe products
most PCIe PHY datasheets are still under NDA, but Marco Groeneveld has already made freely available the schematic of the SENDERO board that includes the PX1011A chip with its connection - downloadable from http://www.fpga.nl/ and PLX tech just announced PCIe to generic local bus bridge PEX8311, it looks li... 13 Dec 2005 08:58

PLX 9056 application
Hello, I am trying to use PLX9056 as an interface between PCI bus and local bus, in manner as simple as possible. I would fill some SRAM on the local bus with certain amount of data (256 or 8K or 32K or 64K words) from uP or FPGA and then tell PLX to take that data and transfer it to PCI bus. The transfer may al... 7 Dec 2005 15:04

Free x86 IP-Core is really working!
seeing is beliving :) the modelsim precompiled version was offered by HT-LAB for free for some time, but that did not trigger my curiosity level - but now as also EDIF version are available its really simple and easy to test drive the CPU86 ipcore in FPGA! it took about 1 hour to get the core todo something in... 7 Dec 2005 10:20

VGA controller
I'm looking for simple VGA (XGA up to 800x600) controller for displaying simple images on the LCD pannel - any suggestion for available ASIC (LCD controller) or FPGA (VHDL core) design will do. Thanks, Damir ... 8 Dec 2005 04:31

FPGA development board with digital image camera
Hi, I will do some research on video/image processing on FPGA. I will design VHDL codes for some video/image processing algorithms. I needs a FPGA development board with a big FPGA chip on it. I also hope it can be connected with a digital camera or image sensor with real-time image access into the board. It... 8 Dec 2005 12:25

Slow FIFO using external SRAM
I need to implement slow FIFO (16-bit wide, max. 10 MHz) using external single-port SRAM connected to the FPGA (Spartan II/III). Does anyone have similar FIFO controller (sync/async) implemented using VHDL? Thanks, Damir ... 2 Dec 2005 08:49

Memory in VHDL
I would like to code the on-chip memory in vendor neutral VHDL. I got it running for a dual-port memory with single clock and same port sizes for the read and write port. However, I need a memory with a 32-bit write port and an 8-bit read port. So far I was not able to code it in VHDL in a way that the Synthesiz... 29 Nov 2005 06:04

VHDL algorithm/code for implementing QAM on FPGA
Hello Everyone, I am working on designing a digital modulator that will implement QAM on FPGA. The FPGA will be programmed in VHDL to modulate an input signal(maybefrom a function generator) A D/A converter will convert the digital signal to an analog one that canbe transmitted. Anyway, what I need now is ... 9 Nov 2005 21:41
