12 years agoPDAP is basically a FIFO, which is what I thought you were looking for? It ought to be quite simple to interface to from the FPGA.
i.e. I think your application is even more simple than this: http://www.analog.com/static/imported-files/application_notes/ee254v01.pdf Regarding tool costs etc. since this is an Altera forum, I will only say that Altera tools are very reasonably priced and the devices (e.g. Cyclone V with ARM) are very capable. There would have to be a compelling reason to include the DSP in the design.
