We currently are using the Phillips XA processors for our embedded projects.
We looking to move in to something new (JTAG not ICE) and something we can
'next generation' What is the general view on ARM and NIOS softcores FPGA's,
I've been told the Altera parts are a long ramp up time and maybe we should
go to an ARM by my sales rep. We do floating point, use some memory and need
some glue logic. 16 or 32 bits would be our first choice. Any suggestions?
thanks all
