daveshah: there is no way to enable/disable HFOSC trimming 'on the fly' right ?

tnt: I don't think so
<

There might be a way of reading the factory trim values over SPI, but I'm not sure what that would be

the worst target ever :D
<

(or equally worse as Virtex 4 pro) :p

nats`: what's so horrible about it?
<
nats`>
a lot of bug in the hardware IP is the first things in my mind
<
nats`>
starting the PPC cores is......
<
nats`>
(part because of the arch but also because EDK was an awful tool)
<
mwk>
now I'm wondering how that thing works
<
nats`>
which one ?
<
nats`>
maybe you can find some old doc about it
* mwk
has a ppcful virtex 5 board, would like to get it working some day
<
nats`>
I'm not sure what is your goal
<
mwk>
just messing around
<
nats`>
that's ok :)
<
nats`>
have fun :D
<
azonenberg>
Sell it on ebay to some sucker who doesnt know what it is
<
azonenberg>
then buy a zynq :p
<
mwk>
I've looked at the example that came with the board
<
nats`>
azonenberg, I didn't want to say that
<
nats`>
but yeah....
<
mwk>
that thing uploads a bitstream via JTAG
<
nats`>
anything pre 7 serie is really a bad idea to work on
<
nats`>
(maybe S6 can still have some use)
<
azonenberg>
s6 wasn't that bad for its time, but i consider it de facto NRND now
<
mwk>
and then issues some weird undocumented PPC-specific JTAG commands to boot the CPU, I think
<
mwk>
like, a lot of them
<
azonenberg>
7 series is also the only xilinx family likely to get a f/oss toolchain in the foreseeable future
<
mwk>
azonenberg: untrue
<
azonenberg>
mwk: oh?
<
mwk>
I'm specifically working on S6 support
<
azonenberg>
hey, if you're into that i wont stop you
<
nats`>
anyway I really advice to not go down the Virtex 6 and older road
<
nats`>
those fpga are power hungry for nothing
<
nats`>
I still have fun with some old project using S3 but they could be replaced by Lattice ICE today
<
azonenberg>
the smallest few s6's actually have a small edge over the equivalent 7 series in static power
<
azonenberg>
although dynamic power is often worse
<
nats`>
I wonder if someone works on MAX10 support
<
nats`>
I had a great experience recently it's a cool arch
<
kc8apf>
Every PPC core I've used has some bootstrapping done via poking things over JTAG
<
kc8apf>
Even PowerMac G5s had a PIC on the processor card to do that
<
kc8apf>
I've only heard about work on the Vs: MAX V, Cyclone V
