DEC RK07 drive interface specs wanted

Xilinx has embedded PowerPCs inside Virtex-II FPGAs. SDRAM interface is certailnly possible to arrange on that kind of FPGA, if you need. PCI is certainly possible to achieve at a cost (money or blood, sweat & tears). For more info go see the site below. http://www.xilinx.com/ipcenter/processor_central/ultracontroller/index.htm Probably not for this one. Anything commercial and good enough to handle these big FPGAs will cost you dearly. Without any detailed knowledge I would guess you will end up at about 10 to 20 kUSD (or more) for a profes- sional design kit (e.g. Synplify HDL synthesis, Xilinx ISE place & route, ALDEC AHDL simulator, all these Win blech :) The more *IX you want the more bucks you have to pour into it. I know about gEDA and Icarus verilog, but have so far had no luck... We are all admitted to have an opinion, no matter how unpractical... ;) Good luck. /Ulf A.
