Title says it all - just placed the order for version two's PCBs and feeling cautiously hopeful. The hardware on this board is a major step up from the last:
- Two MAX 10 FPGAs (one as the CPU and the other as an I/O controller) vs. one Cyclone IV
- 16K logic elements per FPGA vs. 6K
- 32-bit SDRAM vs. 16-bit
- 16 GPIO, plus two external buses and two SD card slots, vs. 16 I/O overall
Everything will be here in a week and a half - plenty of time to start refreshing the CPU implementation - and then it's on to assembly and the inevitable cycle of debugging.
