17 years ago --- Quote Start --- I do not have experience with the Microtronix version of the controller. However, the Altera High Performance controller has been very easy to use. Using SOPC builder you could easily do a 7-port implementation (I've done many more than that) with little effort on your part. Alternatively I don't expect it would take you long to come up with your own arbitration logic scheme if you were to do it outside SOPC builder. As far as performance. That depends primarily on how efficiently you access the SDRAM. I have at times achieved up to 95% efficiency on the Altera controller. Jake --- Quote End --- Hi Jake, I am considering arbitrating the masters myself but I have no experience with this kind of task. Would you please tell me more about your experience? How did you share the bandwidth between masters to achieve the system performance and function. Mine is a video processing system from/into which video data is streamed. Looking forward to hearing from you.
