How to instance SDRAM controller in DE10 Lite?
- 1 year agoClearly ease of use. Works without installing JTAG stack (at least Standalone-Programmer) on the client computer.
Altera/Intel RS232 UART IP uses AVMM interface which I don't need in basic HDL debug logic design. I have simple Rx and Tx code with fixed baudrate (921k) written from the scratch. There's no code I can send you as is, I'll check if I can extract something. There are however tons of UART code on the net.
1) Why did you switch to UART? Performance? Ease of use?
2) What UART did you use? The "RS232 UART" from the IP catalog?
3) can you share your code for both options?

I can send old VHDL that I already posted in a forum. It's the ancestor of my present code.

Thank you for the great positive attitude!
However, VHDL is not my thing....
In the meantime I downloaded a Verilog model from GitHub. I compiled and simulated it and already found few bugs because the author probably made it work for a specific baud rate....
I am not sure why the internal seems so complicated to use with no documentation along with e many file it is using.
I was expecting pure Verilog.
I will search for documentation, yet it seems I will take your advise for using ready to go HDL, instead of the UART-RS232 IP.
