Altera DE1 FPGA BOARD - Porting Rockbox to a softcore CPU (NIOS II)

<< < (2/2)

markun:
I guess I read it here: http://wiki.altium.com/display/ADOH/Altera+Nios+II

But since I don't see the altera site mentioning it, it's probably not correct.

EDIT:

Is the wrapper in the last post of this forum thread useful?

The Milkymist SOC (milkymist.org) using a Lattice FPGA may also be of interest.

Sure, in my thesis i compare the nios II from altera, mico32 from lattice, and the leon3 from gaißler research.

I have only one week left for the final release so i am spend all my time on writting now.

I will upload my thesis when i finished it. The time was sadly to short for porting rockbox complete to the de1 board, but i will continue it in my free time during master studies.

The problem of the nios II is that the cpu isnt free and you dont get the source. For the mico32 and leon3 you can download the full source and both are under the gpl.

The problem with the mico32 is that if you use a lattice fpga you dont have a jtag connector for debugging.
