DE2-70 with D5M Camera

Hey, I am working with the DE2-70 dev kit and the D5M camera. From my understanding, the demo for the camera uses both sdrams on the kit. I am trying to make it so the camera only uses one sdra...

I've been working on D5M camera module for static image capturing using DE2 (not DE2-70) development board recently. The camera is integrated with nios2 system used for biometric image processing.

I made some changes to the image buffer (default SDRAM) because I needed it for program memory. So, i toss away the SDRAM design in D5M and used onchip memory as image buffer. However, the onchip memory on Cyclone II is too small. I can only capture 100x100 bayern pattern picture. :(

I hope to port this design on larger FPGA, maybe DE3 board with Stratix III.
