Hi guys,
Thanks for your valuable advice. Appreciate that.
Since you all think that it is not advisible to start with the FPGA. I will look for other option for this application.
I have clock signal at 2.5MHz (differential signal) and the data (differential as well) comes in 34khz packets. Each packet contains 32bit data and a start bit. I will have to detect the start bit and then read the following 32bit data and output it in 32bit parallel single-ended TTL signals. timing is quite relax, as the 32bit parallel signal is output in 34khz rate, perhaps with a clock signal accompanying that as well.
Skogs, the ARM processor you suggested seems pretty cool. Can you point me to the right place to get hold of the device, development board, and getting started info. I would to get this working in a short time. Will appreciate all your inputs.
Keith, do you think the PIC 24 could handle 32 bit output? Or are there any other PICs which may do it?
Thanks again
