Can't this be done on the Metlino (where it *might* make more sense to have a MPSoC) or with gateware? What are those feedback calculations exactly? > My comment in the previous email about "users" wanting this also pertains to > the idea that people not using ARTIQ might want to buy these boards and use > them for their own purposes.

There is no shortage of general purpose FPGA boards for Zynq users. Do we really want to compete in this market?
