Hey there Victor! Thanks for your interest in NuttX port to FPGA!! :-) No there is no such design yet.. you would have to create everything from scratch.. so there is some serious amount of work to do.. but imagine the results.. there will be just one step to ASIC!! :-)
I could reconsider my mentor position in this kind of project because I would really love to see the internals first hand.. with a help of more experienced NuttX'er for sure as second mentor :-) :-) I did a PONG on FPGA over 10 years ago but I would never dare to run CPU-less-program directly on FPGA.. then RTOS.. then lets say Atari emulator.. chip module player.. open source smart debug probe.. a neural interface.. who knows.. would that even fit into the FPGA? :-) :-) I have a strong feeling this may be important.. but I leave the whole decision to the PMC :-) Have a good weekend my friends :-) Tomek -- CeDeROM, SQ7MHZ, http://www.tomek.cedro.info On Sat, Jan 27, 2024 at 2:55 AM Victor Suarez Rovere <suarezvic...@gmail.com> wrote: > > I can certainly port NuttX to run on some FPGA boards too > Is any board already supported? > > On Fri, Jan 26, 2024 at 4:40 PM Alan C.
