50Mhz Firmware

Post by GadgetUK164 »

Hi, I've been buying the parts needed to assemble a TF530 board I bought from Stephen a few years ago - it has been ages since I looked at the 530 stuff and not sure if the latest firmware on github is the version that can work at 50Mhz.

These are the two files I have:-
2017_3_6_tf530_bus.jed
2017_3_6_tf530_ram.jed

Are those the version that works with a 50Mhz chip, assuming the CPLD and RAM are fast enough? Anyone that has one working at 50Mhz - what specifically is needed, other than the CPU. eg. 10nS Xilinx chips? What about RAM? The RAM I have here is Alliance AS6C8008-55ZIN - is that fast enough? I've not built it yet as waiting on other parts, but just wanted to check these things in case I need to order different parts.

Thanks!

The TF530 shareds firmware a the source level with the TF534. The latest version is in the terriblefire-binaries repo. It does work at 50mhz. Its all standard parts like 10ns.
