21 years agoHi Mike,
Your docs were fine and it was clear that I had to instantiate my own fifo. Well I built a system with your FIFO. One request is that the port names be shortened, they caused my SOPC block to grow in width and break all of my connections. http://forum.niosforum.com/work2/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif I went over the next iteration of our prototype design this morning with the HW guy. He really wants to pursue a fifo based approach for streaming data into the Nios. When I get his new logic I'll wire it up to your fifo port and give it a whirl! I think your point about the dc fifo not having an AlmostFull flag will be important for our application. Not sure when this will be, but I'll buzz in with my comments. I'd like to make a dummy data generator that you give it a data rate and it spits data into your fifo port at that rate. It would be great for testing and verification. Ken
