ethanhsHi _florent_, sorry to bother you, but would you have any suggestions for parts for adding ethernet to the Acorn? I think that is probably the cheapest solution for my problem. My Google skills seem to be failing though, all I can find are SerDes chips I'd have to solder directly to, which I'd rather not :) Oh and some ethernet PHYs but it seems without SerDes I can only do 10Mbit/s directly from the FPGA...01:00
zypthe 20-pin socket has 12 IO which should be enough to hook up a RMII PHY if 100 Mb/s is enough01:22
zypotherwise if you need gigabit, the easiest way is probably to make a board with an m.2 socket and a sfp socket01:23
ethanhszyp: ah interesting, thank you for the information, do you have a link to information on how I'd set up 100Mb/s connection with such a PHY? And/or a suggestion of how to get one01:23
ethanhssorry not how to get one but which to get, most seem to be available only at volume01:24
ethanhs100Mb/s is plenty for my needs, just need to stream some video01:25
zypsomething like this, perhaps: https://www.waveshare.com/lan8720-eth-board.htm01:26

zypbut I believe you'd have to remove the oscillator so you could feed it ref_clk from the fpga, IIRC the acorn doesn't have any clock inputs available01:26
zypand I'm not sure how much luck you'd have running RMII over jumper wires either :)01:27
ethanhsah I see, thank you for the link. Unfortunately it seems if you want cheap, ethernet, pcie on an FPGA you can only pick 2 (or you have to hack something together)01:29
ethanhswell, maybe I will give this a try and see how it works out01:33
