I didn't see the original.
Philip Freidin (www.fliptronics.com) is a friend of mine who is doing a
3.2Ghz FPGA. Yes, it takes a level of skill most of us don't posses but
I've seen it protos running on his work bench. Doing 1Ghz for him would
probably be rather straight forward.
I find that hard to believe.Are you sure you don't have decimal point
off. He may be good but he an't Scotty - the miracle worker. FPGA's are 1/10
the speed just do to routing and buffering over gates of the same
technology.
