[cctalk] Re: Good C to FPGA/PLA compiler

Hi Mike, Since you are planning to use a micro anyway, and it doesn't appear you will need a great deal of external logic, you might consider one of the micros that has some programmable logic on board. Cypress PSOC is the prototypical example: https://www.infineon.com/cms/en/product/microcontroller/32-bit-psoc-arm-cor… They have a wide variety starting with Cortex M0 and going up, with varying amounts of programmable logic. Their tools are pretty nice, too, with pre-built modules and also allowing you to drop into raw HDL if you need or want to. They have a nice selection of reasonably priced dev boards to get started. Will If you want to build a ship, don't drum up people to collect wood and don't assign them tasks and work, but rather teach them to long for the endless immensity of the sea.
