Agreed - we used the PRUs for high speed data acquisition (~3.4msps.). What would have normally required a lot of outboard logic ended up being almost all software. Very much an underrated feature, although the Learning curve is not so great though for anything non-trivial.
- chli 13y agoDo you have a blog or somewhere where I can get more information on your experience using the PRUs ? Thanks !
- aray 13y agoI'm curious what you do with them. Sage Devices doesn't seem to have a lot of info available but Bolt says y'all are doing "Home Energy Management". What in home energy management requires ~3.4msps?
- TD-Linux 13y agoI kind of wish the PRU's were Cortex-M0 or something that can be targeted with GCC. That said, they are a very nice idea. I'm currently using the Zynq for a project and it's basically the extreme of the idea. FPGA's are kind of horrible in other ways though, such as the 30 minute build times and power inefficiency.
- GeorgeHahn 13y agoI considered writing a LLVM backend for the PRUs, but put it aside while I wait to see if the rumors of a TI provided compiler pan out.
