      Whenever I see OpenVizsla being used for real USB work I have creeping flashbacks to when I - like uh, 20 years ago - evangelized Desktop Linux; some projects may better be kept in a proof-of-concept stage. But maybe it wasn't _that_ bad? (OpenVizsla, I mean. KDE 1 surely was.)

      Both OV1 and KDE1 were disasters, and both became usable by version 3 :-)

      Did you realize an XMOS would be perfect for Glasgow as well? You get deterministic, event-driven IO, and you can program it in a C-like language, so no need to mess with RTL. XMOS has excellent USB support as well. You really should use that. It's great!

      I don't think "programming in a C-like language" is inherently an advantage (quite the opposite!), but more importantly, while XMOS can probably match HX8K on many tasks, I don't think it can match ECP5

      Sorry, that was meant to be ironic: OV1 used XMOS and was quite the disaster. OV3 switched to an FT2232H+FPGA, using migen and python, and was a wonderful universal development platform. XMOS performs great on paper but projects eventually fail for stupid (but valid) reasons.

      oh. yeah I've never given XMOS more than a passing look, so I haven't even suspected it was supposed to be sarcastic.

      As far as I can tell the sole decent use case for XMOS is USB audio (or maybe other audio). I have a DIY DSP thing running my speakers using an XMOS and it has better latency (0.25ms analog-to-analog, ish) than ~every high-end DSP box you can buy.

      That's running 15 biquad EQ filters × 6 channels at 96kHz 32bit internal resolution (24bit codec), on two XMOS chips. Good luck getting that latency on a traditional DSP. But for anything else? Stay far, far, FAR away from XMOS.

      In 2013 @0x111a and I designed a board that was essentially Glasgow (even the same 74LVC1T45 level translation), except with XMOS for lack of an open FPGA toolchain, and quickly came to the same assessment of the XMOS ecosystem.pic.twitter.com/eIiwtR8FBE

      At least you weren't crazy enough to try to use that cursed dual-row QFN package.

          Yeah, well the XS1-U8 we designed in wasn't actually purchasable in quantity at the time, and its integrated USB transceiver required a new version of the binary blob USB stack that clearly hadn't been tested with anything besides their audio class example.

          Anyway, the software side of that project turned into https://github.com/signalspec/signalspec …, which is still very much vaporware, but I really want to get it into a state where it can be useful with Glasgow.
