 		 #136873 - FPGAs work fine for processors for us
Responding to: ???'s previous message
We regularly test processors using FPGAs.

It works fine, PROVIDING that you use a limited number (ideally 1) of clocks in your design, and you have a CLEAN design.

If you exceed the number of clock resources, or rely on asynchronous logic (glitches), then you will be punished.

   They do work to a limited extent, but...            01/01/70 00:00      
      there's a range ...            01/01/70 00:00      
         What architecture?            01/01/70 00:00      
            805x, but modified            01/01/70 00:00      
               are you reinventing the wheel?            01/01/70 00:00      
                  Yes, but it's worth the trouble            01/01/70 00:00

                        I only looked at their site once ...            01/01/70 00:00      
                     SiLabs pricing?            01/01/70 00:00      
                        That's what they had on their website            01/01/70 00:00      
   RTFM?            01/01/70 00:00      
      Mostly, it's absence of "TFM"            01/01/70 00:00

   I hate to assume, but            01/01/70 00:00      
      "free" ... I doubt it ...            01/01/70 00:00      
         OK a recollection from a seminar            01/01/70 00:00      
            Maybe from this convention?            01/01/70 00:00      
   is FPGA a suitable "substrate" for a processor?            01/01/70 00:00      
      it's not as easy as the marketeers say ...            01/01/70 00:00      
         FPGA Software            01/01/70 00:00      
      FPGAs work fine for processors for us            01/01/70 00:00      
      FPGA-based processors            01/01/70 00:00      
         Shouldn't it do better than 50 MHz?            01/01/70 00:00      
            50 MHz is pretty fast            01/01/70 00:00
