Bari mentioned the 80200 evaluation board we developed for Intel. I don't want
to degrade the list's signal-to-noise ratio, but thought a brief description and
pointers to additional information would be useful because the design is new and
not yet well known.
The 80200EVB is a reference design and evaluation platform based on an open
source FPGA companion chip, making it a simpler, lower cost, higher performance,
and easier to use platform than those based on the 80200 CPU / 80312 companion.
The 80200EVB's simplicity enables straightforward porting and code development
with minimal hardware configuration and driver support. The open source FPGA
companion chip also allows hardware designers to develop companion chips
tailored to their application or to further leverage ASICs or FPGAs that may
already exist in their design.
Hardware design sources will be on the Intel website shortly, but for now are
available under NDA from Intel - please contact me if you would like more
information. An application note about the FPGA companion chip is at
http://developer.intel.com/design/iio/applnots/273494.htm and general
information is on our website at http://www.adiengineering.com/products.html.
