A video of the Xilinx XC9572XL v1a and Lattice LC4032 v1 CPLD development board builds and power up test.
Due to a technical problem most of the soldering video was lost.
In this video:
- Xilinx XC9572XL and Lattice LC4032 CPLD development board builds
- A jab at Altera
- XC9572XL power up test and programming
Don’t forget there are PCBs for both of these boards in the free PCB drawer if you want to build your own.
Tomorrow we’ll probably post a build video for the IR Toy Arduino shield.
What do you use for editing/fast forward?
I’m using an awful program called AVS. It was cheap and actually loaded the AVCHD video from my digital video camera (unlike my 10 year old copy of Adobe Premier). AVS is terrible. Only a single video timeline, maximum 12x speed up, no easy way to separate audio and video, no easy way to scan the video and make clips. And it’s crashy. However, the demo worked and it was only $20, so I’ve been using it. There is something else out there (from sony?) that is supposed to be pretty good and around $100. I’m also going to try the stripped-down adobe premier elements (the real deal is $500, and needs 64bit OS).
This is why I don’t make a lot of video :-) I asked because I am thinking of making a series of videos on basic semiconductor physics stuff. I am sure there are many non-formally trained persons who might like to know more about how it all works inside the lump of epoxy.
I’m testing Premier Elements now, seems like more than enough for what I’m doing, and a ton better than AVS.
I might give that a whirl. I don’t feel like being frustrated over that sort of thing. I have CS4 but it is flavor with Premier. I can probably get it cheaply through my university though.
