Krzysztof Foltman has posted his FPGA efforts so far on GitHub! Currently the codebase contains modules to deal with: – key-matrix input – LED output with brightness control – Serial port input and output – SPI flash – Quad-SPI flash (4 times as fast as regular SPI) No doubt this will Read more
Let’s make some noise! Most development starts in a very cushy environment with great debugging support. Goldfish once started in the Jeskola Buzz virtual studio platform so I could quickly test and optimize the algorithms without having to upload and install the binaries on a PocketPC. The Goldfish and Platinumfish synthesizer plugins Read more
When you can fix a problem in 5 minutes – do so directly! In this case, a shipment of reels was uncoiling all over the place. Something had to be done! I used some Makeblock parts to build a quick reel-stand. A simple square base with a holder – like a Read more
written by Roman Buehler This Is Not Rocket Science on Google+ managed by Roman Buehler Brilliant minds come together to play with their combined knowledge. Stijn Kuipers, Priscilla Haring, Kzrysztof Foltman, Niko Kuipers, Roman Buehler, Lauri Koponen and Roy Bekhuis go on a business adventure trip, experimenting, researching, having fun Read more
HDMI video out should be well within reach of a Spartan 6 FPGA. I am still in the process of readin up and figuring out. Here are some of the more interesting reads I’ve found. Some are interesting in-depth, technical details, some are stories of people that did this before. Read more
The Goldfish platform is slowly growing in scope and complexity. The first three Goldfish designs focussed on getting components to work at all – microcontroller, audio codec, TFT screen and MIDI. The designs I’m working on right now will provide the processing power to do something more interesting than polyphonic ringtones. Read more
