Hi all, I'm reading http://www.linux-sh.org/shwiki/Processors and if I click sh7044 I read that the page is not more available or it need to be written. In the past I tried to make somethink with Paul, but I did not finished the activite bacuase of lack of time. Just a question; was it really avalilable in the past or not? Thanks a lot. -- Fabio Giovagnini Aurion s.r.l. via degli orti 11, 40050 Funo di Argelato (BO) Tel. +39.335.8350919 Fax +39.051.8659009 www.aurion-tech.com account telefono VoIP skype (www.skype.com): aurion.giovagnini |

Correct, this is just a simple information page, and that's more of a placeholder. Feel free to add some notes there if you like, or you an remove it if you don't figure it's going to be of any use. > In the past I tried to make somethink with Paul, but I did not finished > the activite bacuase of lack of time. > Just a question; was it really avalilable in the past or not? > Most of the work that we did for this before is still hanging around, so it should be pretty easy to tie in to the rest of the SH-2 support code that's in the tree now. You're still going to need a board with more RAM though, so it might not be worth dealing with SH7044. By this point, SH7044 is quite an old part, so it's likely not worth spending too much time on it.. especially since there's far more interesting work to be done on SH-2A. |

Considering sh2-7044 very old, I think it is an error for the following=20 reason: it is 5V supplied, insted of being 3.3V supplied.=20 We disovered that 3.3 V is not so suitable around each application=20 environment, so that 5V devices are still ther dignity, even if ther seen t= o=20 be old are birth age. Among all the sh-2 Renesas' devices 5V devices are not so mach, so 7044 and= =20 its 5V childern I think are still interesting. Anyway now I have 1 Mbyte ram Board 7045 based, and not much ram is availab= le=20 on all the board made by me; I don't know if 1MByte of ram is enough. Ciao and best regards. P.S. What are you working on at this moment? > > By this point, SH7044 is quite an old part, so it's likely not worth > spending too much time on it.. especially since there's far more > interesting work to be done on SH-2A. =2D-=20 =46abio Giovagnini Aurion s.r.l. via degli orti 11, 40050 Funo di Argelato (BO) Tel. +39.335.8350919 =46ax +39.051.8659009 www.aurion-tech.com account telefono VoIP skype (www.skype.com): aurion.giovagnini |

It is easy to work with 7044/7045. But RAM requires more a lot. =20 > Ciao and best regards. >=20 > P.S. >=20 > What are you working on at this moment? >=20 >=20 >=20 > > > > By this point, SH7044 is quite an old part, so it's likely not worth > > spending too much time on it.. especially since there's far more > > interesting work to be done on SH-2A. >=20 --=20 Yoshinori Sato <ys...@us...> |
