Lots of these are fractured (bitrot?) so you may have to pull a couple of versions of things to get a complete image of something, but a lot of them are useful. look under the IBM and MAC headings for the as11 stuff.) I've collected some other 6811 stuff (like the nifty VB-based simulator from RMIT Australia) but I can't find the FTP site I got them from. I think it was: ftp://cher.media.mit.edu/pub/projects/6811 but I can't seem to get through to there any more. > Date: Thu, 04 Jul 1996 08:46:43 -0700 > Subject: Re: 68HC11 > > Let me know if you want it.

Thanks for any update info on | this or related fpga tools. | | mike | Mike asked me about the Cypress VHDL compiler that I bought, and since there was some interest last time I mentioned it I figured I'd forward a reply to the lists. I just got v4.0 of the VHDL compiler. I haven't used it much, but it appears to be.... A VHDL compiler. :-) It supports all the Cypress chips, including PALs, CPLDs, and FPGAs. I think you need additional software to really do your own FPGAs, though (like floorplanning and timing analysis). But for CPLDs it's a complete package including simulator. The download cable/software wasn't available at the time, although it should be now. I need to call back and see. The download cable/software works with all of the Cypress "ISR" chips (in system reprogrammable). These are the 371i to 375i. They range from 32 to 128 macrocells, 44 to 160 pins. Each chip is programmed thru 4 special pins, which means you need an additional connector on the board if you want to reprogram them in-circuit. Actually, I guess an additional connector for each chip. Or it occurred to me that you could make a board with one cable connector and a bunch of blank sockets to use as a "poor man's programmer". I'd recommend this package to anyone interested, esp. since the price is reasonable. It was about $116 US with shipping, and it includes a textbook published by Addison Wesley about VHDL on programmable logic. The download software and cable is another $100, and only runs on PC type platforms. The WARP software itself is available for PCs or several workstations.

I have decided to turn our Tektronix CRO into a long period data logger. I have a simple program that only needs little modification for this purpose, however (you guessed it) its written in Quick-Basic 4.5 and I need to be able to compile and link the code. If anyone can help it would be much appreciated.

Beyond that I'd consult the "alt.lang.basic" newsgroup or "comp.lang.misc.basic" Good luck and best regards, Thomas Sparks ------------------------------ End of DIY_EFI Digest V1 #193 ***************************** To subscribe to DIY_EFI-Digest, send the command: subscribe diy_efi-digest in the body of a message to "Majordomo@xxx.
