“The iconic #Commodore64 home computer is set to make a comeback, and a full-on return to relevance for the brand may follow, as a group of enthusiasts from the Commodore fan community have acquired all rights and #trademarks associated with the company.
The global group – including #Australian retro hardware experts and led by British actor Christian Simpson, also known as retro computer YouTube personality #PeriFractic — has formed a new incarnation of the company called Commodore International.”
…
“As well as resurrecting the beloved Commodore 64 in a way that supports technology old and new, more than 30 years after the machine was discontinued, the company plans to produce new hardware that embodies the friendly computing and creativity of the 1990s.”
“Simpson has appointed members of the Commodore enthusiast community — many of whom have previously created unofficial Commodore 64 hardware and products — to various roles in the new company. He has also engaged individuals who worked for Commodore decades ago, including the co-creator of the Commodore 64, #AlCharpentier, as technical adviser.
#JakeYoung, a manufacturer of #RetroTech based in #SouthAustralia, will serve as Commodore’s chief technology officer.”

Isle FPGA 電腦
➤ 一個專注於開源、簡單且可玩性的 FPGA 電腦專案
✤ https://projectf.io/isle/fpga-computer.html
作者正在開發一款名為 Isle 的電腦，其設計理念是簡單、現代且開源，鼓勵使用者進行實驗與客製化。Isle 採用 32 位元 RISC-V CPU，具備 2D 圖形引擎、Unicode 文字模式、聲音、SD 卡儲存、鍵盤滑鼠介面，並預留擴充插槽，運行 Isle OS。作者強調其設計的「在地化」與「互通性」，並利用 FPGA 開發板及模擬器進行硬體設計，軟體開發則與硬體同步進行。專案名稱「Isle」寓意著一個可以進行實驗與演化的獨立空間，作者期望激發一個「電腦羣島」的生態系。
+ 聽起來很棒！我很期待看到 Isle 的發展，特別是它的圖形和聲音部分。
+ 使用 RISC-V 真是個明智的選擇，這樣就能利用現有的開發工具鏈。希望作者能盡快公開更多硬體細節。

Of course, this is done using an #fpga based submarine written fully* in Spade https://gitlab.com/TheZoq2/submarine_firmware
We offer a position as #FPGA developer for software defined radio #SDR with JESD204B-ADCs, a mixture of #DSP algorithms in logic on Xilinx/AMD FPGAs and #GNURadio on #embedded Linux for our upcoming satellite project.
https://jobs.mb-satellite.com/HPv3.Jobs/MB-Satellite/stellenangebot/46970
The lab is located in Hamburg, Germany, but most of the work can be done fully remote.

Looking for advice:
I have a camera sensor (CMV12000). I want to capture a single frame via the LVDS signals. For now I do not care where it goes, as long as I can use it in a more accessible way. My initial research suggests I should look more into FPGAs.
I've been looking into the ECP5/Trellis stuff for some time, never tried it. Would that be a good path to follow?
Can you hint me in a good/better direction? Any advice and also shares would be very much appreciated!

Amaranth 語言與工具鏈 0.6.0.dev100 文件導覽
➤ 用 Python 打造 FPGA 硬體的強大工具
✤ https://amaranth-lang.org/docs/amaranth/latest/intro.html#the-amaranth-language
Amaranth 是一個基於 Python 的開源工具鏈，用於開發同步數位邏輯硬體，旨在簡化 FPGA 開發流程。它結合了 Amaranth 語言、標準函式庫、模擬器及建置系統，並能與現有業界標準工具鏈整合，同時提供開發板定義，讓使用者能專注於應用邏輯。
+ 終於有了一個能讓 Python 愛好者也能輕鬆駕馭 FPGA 開發的工具！
+ 整合了 Yosys 和常見 FPGA 工具鏈，感覺很完整，期待實際應用。

Icepi Zero looks like an interesting open-source ECP5 #FPGA dev board. It’s got a decent spec in a small form factor. The only obvious omission is audio out. The big question is, how much will it cost? https://www.crowdsupply.com/icy-electronics/icepi-zero
I don't yet have a complete system to share with you. Getting the design right takes a lot of experimentation; I've hit dead ends several times. I'll gradually introduce components over the coming months. The first part looks at display signals. #FPGA

If you're, like me, not a fan of Discord and want to try my self-hosted #Matrix server, come join the LameHQ for #Amiga, #FPGA, #openFPGA, #DemoScene discussions and more if people are into it.
Right now it's really just to make sure I have everything setup correctly...
I was told a few weeks ago I'm being told that I am being fired on Monday unless I was able to find some work at my current company. So I guess I should look for some work. I'd love to do something I can feel good about doing. I'm currently in the SE US, but happy to move to the North East.
I have over 10 years of experience in the embedded electronics space. I'm often moved around as I pick things up quickly and give insight others find valuable.
I've done FPGA design and verification, software and hardware reverse engineering, and rapid prototyping. I've mainly worked with xilinx parts. I love digging down in the weeds and figuring things out. I live in the muddy middle between hardware and software and comfortable with both. I have at least some experience with most standard embedded protocols and am very at home in electronics labs. I've recently been learning web dev using Flask with a sql database. I know VHDL, and python, I'm a bit rusty on tcl, c/c++ and others.

Isle 
is my new #FPGA project.
Isle is a simple, modern computer — an open design that encourages tinkering, experimentation, and doing your own thing. I hope to inspire you to come on a journey with me and build your own computer. http://projectf.io/isle/fpga-computer.html
I have improved the hard disk “firmware code” in #zeST, so now it supports most standard ACSI/SCSI commands and error codes.
Now partitioning tools work, so you can configure new drives from the running Atari without the need of an emulator on PC.
zeST is also ready to support multiple drives. I still have to adapt the configuration interface for that.
I love to hear about interesting accounts to follow for #FPGA, #riscv, #oshw, and #permacomputing. 
New #FPGA project from me this Friday. Just been validating the HTML and running some final tests. I thought it was time I nailed my colours to the mast. 
Commodore 64 Ultimate is a new FPGA-based computer that should be compatible with most classic C64 games and software
The Acorn Atom is ported over to the Icepi Zero.
