8 years agoUpdate: I have succesfuly got the hdmi output through from cyclone 2 fpga to the phillips monitor via hdmi, it turnd out that I had my clock and a color line mixed up in my wiring, head banging over :) my samsung wont work yet but we'll see what code can achieve.
Edit: Samsung now works, but the Hdmi/dvi port cuts out , probably sync issue and different settings required Will investigate. Edit: it appears that the cyclone II fpga is limited to 480p , 720p is a difficult thing to achieve at the maximum mbps of the cyclone II, any ideas? I've tried caskading two ppl's with their output and input clocks to trick into higher mhz (that works fine) but beyond that the output doesn't support 640mbps on lvds via differential pairs TX out.
