Ultranet is a protocol created by audio manufacturer Behringer to transmit up to 16 channels of 24-bit sound over a Cat-5 cable. It’s not an open standard, though: Behringer doesn’t …read more Continue reading Reverse Engineering the Behringer Ultranet Protocol
Soft cores for FPGAs come in many different flavors, covering a wide range of applications. The Bit-Serial CPU (bcpu) soft core presented by [Richard James Howe] is interesting for taking …read more Continue reading Bit-Serial CPU: Ultra-Tiny VHDL-Based CPU With Forth Interpreter
When faced with an FPGA, some people might use it to visualize the Mandelbrot set. Others might use it to make CPUs. But what happens if you combine the two? …read more Continue reading Compute the Mandelbrot Set With a Custom RISC-V CPU
One of the more interesting facets of GPS is that, at least from the receiver’s point-of-view, it’s a fairly passive system. All of the information beamed down from the satellites …read more Continue reading Building a GPS Receiver from the Ground Up
If you really want to look at how much something costs, you need to look at total cost of ownership, not just the sticker price. Same goes for things like …read more Continue reading Will We Recycle FPGAs In The Future?
In this week’s episode of “Stupid Chatbot Tricks,” it turns out that jailbreaking ChatGPT is as easy as asking it to repeat a word over and over forever. That’s according …read more Continue reading Hackaday Links: December 10, 2023
You probably don’t notice keyboard latency when typing or doing mundane tasks, but if you start gaming, that’s also when you might start complaining. Every millisecond counts in that arena. …read more Continue reading Nyan Keys: Because Your Keyboard is Painfully Slow
A new BeagleBoard is on the way, full of FPGA hotness: the BeagleV-Fire has been announced. The new $150 Single-Board Computer (SBC) from the pioneering open source BeagleBoard company is …read more Continue reading BeagleV Catches Fire With The BeagleV-Fire
That EPROMs, EEPROMs and kin can be used as programmable logic should probably not come as a major surprise, but [Jimmy] has created a Lisp-based project that makes using these …read more Continue reading Using EPROMS and EEPROMs As Programmable Logic With Lisp
When it comes to driving a display, you can do all kinds of fancy tricks with microcontrollers to get an image up. Really, though, FPGAs are the weapon of choice …read more Continue reading FPGA Runs IBM 5151 MDA Display
