Re: XS1-A8-64 Stick Project

I was thinking on doing a prototype it like this. Of course I'd like a 40 DIP Stick... maybe the second round :).
The board is 5x5 cm, two layers.

Re: XS1-A8-64 Stick Project

Thanks for the information. I seem to have missed the exact section I was looking for....
I want to build just a few, start with 2 because I'll build them per hand.

XS1-A8-64 Stick Project

I'd like to make a couple Sticks based on the XS1-A8-64, the BGA96 device. A couple questions come to mind... which coils do I need ? I know there are "power" coils but which one ? I have also an "old" XTAG board and I ask myself if that one can program these newer devices, any t...

Re: New U series Chip confusion

The old datasheet is still there... I hoped for a hand-solderable package for new parts, but most probably the frequency doesn't allow it :/. Are they going to drop 4 cores devices ? it seems so...

Re: SDRAM/SDcard board for XC-1A

The boards finally arrived. I'll populate one and write some code. Send me a PM if you are still interested. I have to get the gates but the other parts lay already on my bench :-)

Re: Sharing variable betweed Threads

I have used shared memory from XC and assembler. And you can also do it in C. It is a restriction in XC that two or more threads cannot access the same location, unless read-only.

Re: Parser for disassembly?

Could you please elaborate on what exactly you want to do ? Do you need to see functions prolog and predicates or what ?

Re: SDRAM/SDcard board for XC-1A

Here are as promised the schematic and the board. It uses a similar design as the new sdram slice, because we do not have that many free pins in the XC-1A :/. I'll get a couple done by the guys at http://www.mikrocontroller.net/articles/Platinensammler , you may have heard about 'em. I'll use a 74LV...

Re: G4 and XTAG-2

With 2 L2s will be evrything bigger.... I wanted just a 5x5 cm board with 2.54 mm spaced connectors... let's see...

Are the G devices then eol'd ?
