| 20:45.59 | dyoung-zzzz | Hi beewoolie. |
| 21:02.46 | beewoolie-away | dyoung-zzzz: hey man. |
| 21:03.45 | dyoung-zzzz | hows it going? |
| 21:04.53 | dyoung-zzzz | so if you had $1500 or so to buy a 'scope and multimeter, would you get a tek TDS2000 series or something similar or a fluke scopemeter ? |
| 21:06.41 | beewoolie-away | I looked at those products some time ago. My problem with the flukes is that they don't have much bandwidth. Protable, but not ultimately not going to be much help. Also, I want at least 4 channels. |
| 21:08.02 | dyoung-zzzz | Yeah, my main problem was with the 20 or 40Mhz limitation |
| 21:08.53 | dyoung-zzzz | I was leaning toward the Tek. |
| 21:09.16 | dyoung-zzzz | My stupid 2246 is gone all flaky so I'm gonna just get a legitimate scope for the office. |
| 21:12.14 | beewoolie-away | Tek's little storage oscilloscope is pretty nice. I used one for a while. too much for my budget, but it was small, light, and fast. |
| 21:12.40 | beewoolie-away | I think my favorites were the agillent's. Again, too pricey, but they have the features I wanted. |
| 21:13.07 | dyoung-zzzz | I'm browsing the current DRMO BP closing auction today. Some of these people are INSANE. |
| 21:13.24 | dyoung-zzzz | c'mon guys, $2550 for a bus up hobart dough mixer?! |
| 21:13.33 | dyoung-zzzz | Those used to go for $150. |
| 21:14.37 | *** join/#openjtag [g2] (~g2@g2.nslu2-linux) |
| 21:14.45 | dyoung-zzzz | Hmm, maybe I ought to look into agilent productt line too |
| 21:15.25 | [g2] | did you guys see xilinx is releasing 7.1 with free Linux support ? |
| 21:16.16 | dyoung-zzzz | yes, and they already have SP1 for it. |
| 21:17.02 | [g2] | cool are you playing with it ? |
| 21:17.41 | dyoung-zzzz | I downloaded it but never did anything with it yet. Got all distracted with some other stuff. |
| 21:18.05 | [g2] | I know how easy that can happen :) |
| 21:18.46 | dyoung-zzzz | the bummer part is the MXE is windows only. |
| 21:19.28 | dyoung-zzzz | But i suppose if theres a linux tool to do something with an IBIS model, you might be ble to get similar results. |
| 21:20.38 | beewoolie-away | I saw that xlinx release. Honestly, I'm not sure I know what it means. It's a hardware design tool or something. |
| 21:22.07 | dyoung-zzzz | its the doodad you need to compile Verilog or VHDL for putting into a Xilinx CPLD or FPGA. |
| 21:31.11 | beewoolie-away | [g2]: you feeling better, then? |
| 21:31.44 | [g2] | I'm feeling much better thanks |
| 21:32.05 | dyoung-zzzz | [g2] are you fatslug enabled yet? |
| 21:32.19 | [g2] | I really understand now why so many ppl die from the flu each year now |
| 21:32.49 | [g2] | you know I've been meaning to ping ka6sox about the fatslug |
| 21:34.03 | [g2] | I've got the Fat Avila slug |
| 21:34.17 | dyoung-zzzz | oh yeah; that sright. |
| 21:34.19 | beewoolie-away | [g2]: what do you mean? Were you on death's door? |
| 21:34.28 | dyoung-zzzz | so did you play with apex on the avila yet? |
| 21:35.39 | [g2] | I had nearly a 103 fever on 1300Mg of tylenol |
| 21:36.12 | beewoolie-away | [g2]: Ah, so if the bug didn't get you, the tylenol would. |
| 21:37.10 | [g2] | dyoung-zzzz, I haven't played with Apex on avila yet |
| 21:37.54 | [g2] | I've been on the fence about rigging up my digilent cable or just ordering the sw/proper cable from gateworks |
| 21:38.19 | dyoung-zzzz | what kinda connector on the avila? |
| 21:38.25 | [g2] | 2x7 |
| 21:38.56 | [g2] | I could probably order the connector from digi-key :) |
| 21:39.25 | [g2] | ditto on the serial |
| 21:39.40 | dyoung-zzzz | if its a standard "arm jtag" connector someone makes an adapter for xilinx cable -> arm jtag. |
| 21:39.46 | dyoung-zzzz | whered I see that now..... |
| 21:40.09 | [g2] | the pinout is described on the pdf for the avila board |
| 21:46.45 | [g2] | Pin 1 VCC3 pullup, 3->RST 5->TDI 7->TMS 9->TCK 11->TDO 13->VCC3 pullup 12->Board Reset |
