In general, running at different EMIFA bus rates should be OK as long as you keep in mind the following po...

We were having some issues with our server earlier today. It should be all better now.
cheers
/Tim - Hi,
How are you doing ?
I was following the steps listed here:
http://support.criticallink.com/redmine/projects/a... - Hello,
I am running my L138 CPU at 372 MHz, which results in the EMIFA bus running at 93MHz instead of 100 MHZ.

- 03:38 PM Software Development: RE: Using the EMIFA to read/write FPGA registers
- It worked! I changed to 0x40 and used 16 bit numbers. Here's the new code that worked-
UInt32 *Fpga_mem_ptr = (un... - 02:30 PM Software Development: RE: Using the EMIFA to read/write FPGA registers

- 12:19 PM Software Development: RE: Using the EMIFA to read/write FPGA registers
- Well the wiki says CS5 is used for the DSP, but when I look at the VHDL it says CS4.
- 12:15 PM Software Development: RE: Using the EMIFA to read/write FPGA registers
- Marc,
Are you using CS4 or CS5?
0x66000000 corresponds to CS5.
-Mike
- 12:04 PM Software Development: RE: Using the EMIFA to read/write FPGA registers
- So does the EMIFA just run in the background and constantly refresh the values? Or does it perform an action when yo...

- @sfh_OMAP-L138 -erase -p COM7@ worked!!
- 03:00 PM Software Development: RE: continual reboot
- Should. You'll need to reflash again the u-Boot and UBL. Give it a try. (good catch, BTW).
