The DE0 Nano with the Altera Cyclone IV EP4CE22F17C6N FPGA has 22,320 logic elements, 594 Kbits embedded memory, 4 general purpose PLLs, and 153 FPGA I\/O pins. There is 32MB of SDRAM on this small FPGA developer board.<\/p>\n<p>The OpenRISC code for Linux 7.0 has also fixed a bug in the OpenRISC SMP kernel code preventing it from running on FPGA developer boards. There is also a fix for build failures on OpenRISC for drivers using the nop() macro.\n<\/p>\n<p>These OpenRISC changes were merged for Linux 7.0.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.phoronix.com\/news\/OpenRISC-Linux-7.0\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OpenRISC With Linux 7.0 Improves Out-Of-The-Box Support For More FPGA Dev Boards https:\/\/www.phoronix.com\/news\/OpenRISC-Linux-7.0 Publish Date:&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":214038,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.phoronix.net\/image.php?id=2026&image=de0_nano","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[48],"tags":[71],"class_list":["post-214037","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-linux","tag-linux"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/214037"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=214037"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/214037\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":214039,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/214037\/revisions\/214039"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/214038"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=214037"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=214037"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=214037"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
