[Discuss-gnuradio] SPARTAN FPGA on USRP2

2009-12-07 Thread yashas nataraj
Hi, My research group is in the process of exploring about the purchase of USRP2 which employs SPARTAN-3-2000. In this regard, I had a few queries: 1. Is there some room leftover on the SPARTAN-3-2000 for USRP programming? - Many people whom I contacted were of the opinion that there is

That's probably ok. I haven't ever used one of the breakout cables to connect to a SATA connector, but it sounds like SATA cables don't have the built in crossover like the SAS ones do. Matt On 12/07/2009 11:57 AM, Charles Irick wrote: Thank you for the fast reply. It looks like I need th

Thank you for the fast reply. It looks like I need the SATA fanout connectors to be the host in this case because pin 2-3 are TX for the SATA port. Would there be any issue having the mini-SAS as the target? (part: iSAS-7P88-U) Charles On Mon, Dec 7, 2009 at 2:29 PM, Matt Ettus wrote: > On 12/07

I double checked the scrambler code and I really do not see anything wrong with it, it seems to meet the 802.11 spec for DSSS. Then I found something in the spec that says that the transmitter need not start with the seed, since the receiver's descrambler is self-synchronizing. So then I figured,
