Hello world,

I am putting together my first embedded DSP processor with an FPGA and
I am wondering if there are specific pins I should use in the DPI for
SPI (i will need two seperate SPI buses, one for FPGA and another for
DSP-DSP comm). Also, if there are specific pins to use for I2S on the
DAI or if any can be routed in software.


Danke,

Omer Osman

For the I2S you can use any DAI pins you like.

As regards the SPI you need should be aware that for booting putposes the
SRU connects all SPI signals to certain pins by default after reset (look in
the manual under the SRU chapter).
Of course you can change that, too. But most people boot through SPI.

Bittesch�n :-).

DPI 1 = MOSI
DPI 2 = MISO
DPI 3 = SCK
DPI 5 = SS# for FLASH BOOT

The rest of the DPI use any way you want.

I would use a 21469 for a new design and use the link ports for FPGA
interconnections.

DPI & DAI are the same as 21369

If you need external DRAM, 21369 SDRAM expansion is much easier than 21469
which uses DDR2.

We do make a 21369 + Cyclone III dspblok module.
