ROFLMAO! And how exactly do you access 512K of any kind of memory with a 16 MHz AVR (and how long does it take you to do anything useful with that much data?!?)? :) IMHO the whole concept of the Tre is a bit crazy...the AM3359 already has dual 200 MHz 32-bit controllers that run rings around an AVR Arduino, but I guess you can't code for the PRUs using the Arduino IDE. Ah well...maybe someone will write a virtual AVR emulator for the PRU, then you could have *THREE* Arduino's on a Tre! Oh...and on the already shipping BBB, the PRUs have multi-ported access to the 512M on-board DDR memory. Feel free to only use 1/1024 of the available memory for your wish-list 512K shared memory region. :) -- Charles Steinkuehler char...@steinkuehler.net -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
