That looks like a good one too. All good suggestions. So many options. Ideally, I would like a single board capable of running RTEMS, with at least 128 MB of RAM, SD flash card, Ethernet or wifi, with 1 or 2 DAP's, an i2c pin, RS-232 interface, and with at least 6 hardware PWM GPIO pins. I want to put this in my quadcopter. I already have a micro controller driving the rotors and connected to the sensors, but rather than adding a CPU, I want to combine them in a single board. One of my coworkers likes playing with FPGA's, so I said I would see if I could find an FPGA with soft core.<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'><br>On Feb 11, 2013, at 6:43 AM, Jiri Freyvald <<a href="mailto:jiri.freyvald@gmail.com">jiri.freyvald@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<o:p></o:p></p></div><blockquote style='margin-top:5.0pt;margin-bottom:5.0pt'><div><div><p class=MsoNormal>Hi Mathew,<br><br>that's funny, I have the same thoughts.<br>My goal is to port LEON3 on xilinx board, but i'll probably start with something like microblaze.<br>Actually yesterday i ordered this board: <br><a href="http://www.element14.com/community/blogs/alex-the-kidd/2013/02/06/pipistrello-rev-20-fpga-board">http://www.element14.com/community/blogs/alex-the-kidd/2013/02/06/pipistrello-rev-20-fpga-board</a><br>(prize is $140)<br><br>So on some stage we could probably somehow exchange information.<br><br>With regards,<br>Jiri Freyvald<br><br><br><br><br>On 10/02/13 13:01, Mathew Benson wrote:<o:p></o:p></p></div><blockquote style='margin-top:5.0pt;margin-bottom:5.0pt'><p class=MsoNormal>Has anybody got RTEMS to run on an inexpensive FPGA based board?
