do you guys know a way to get to pins of FMC-LPC connector without those fancy breakout boards that cost more than the FPGA board?
<
kyak>
what i want to do is generate some PWM and capture digital pulses using my Zedboard
<
kyak>
and i'm just wondering how on earth this board is considered "hackable" if there is no easy access to FPGA pins...
<
sb0>
since when hacks had to be easy?
<
sb0>
if you want just a couple pins, a cheap option may be to order a bare FMC connector from samtec, and solder wires directly on it

xilinx has a breakout board I don't think it is that expensive
<
larsc>
well, ok 159$

yeah, very cheap
<
kyak>
"hacks" are not necessarily easy, but the term "hackable" usually implies it should be easy (and cheap, too)
<
kyak>
really cheap, not half the price of the zedboard for bare fmc connector
fengling__ is now known as fengling
<
kyak>
i'm now thinking about utilizing the XADC connector of zedboard, since it's much more accessible..
<
larsc>
why not the pmod headers?
<
kyak>
was just going to say that.. yeah, they look great for the purpose
<
kyak>
so it looks like it is possible to couple Zedboard and DRV8312-C2-KIT from TI to spin the PMSM motor
<
kyak>
i have the two kits, and was trying to avoid buying costly ~2k kit from Avnet
<
kyak>
(that is, FMCMOTCON2)

so linux can't easily execute arbitrary acpi methods from userspace?
<

well there's the somewhat limited acpi_call module...
