Hi

Ever get the FIFOED UART to work. I am in need of a UART for a NIOS 13.0sp1 design. It seems that the Avalon UART in Qsys can be hooked to DMA and this will allow for streaming and flow control as well as offload the NIOS processor. I am just getting started after looking at the FIFOED UART and not being about to port the IP to Qsys.

Any comments or insight would be appreciated.

Thanks.
