#FOSDEM 2026 was awesome! 🧇

Very cool to meet lots of interesting people :) 🍻 🫂

Video & Slides of my talk about SucréLA are online! 🎉

SucréLA: open source usb 3.0 logic analyzer based on FPGA https://fosdem.org/2026/schedule/event/WSKHHU-sucrela_open_source_usb_3_0_logic_analyzer_based_on_fpga/

Anyone ever use the standalone generator?

Well that's kind of frustrating. This LiteDRAM DDR2 controller using sim mode (built-in DRAM model) eats the write transaction, eats the read transaction, and then never responds.

I followed the init_sequence from the generated C code, but I have a hunch more is required.

Litex: Because who needs years of study when you can cram a "formal language" in a lunch break? 🙄⚡ GitHub's version of "skip the content, learn nothing!" 🤖👨‍💻

Woohoo! #SDRAM on #ULX5M is working with #LiteX #FemetoRV!!! #Cologne GateMateA1 that is #CM5 pin compatible... All done with #opensource toolchain!

I'm making lots of progress on the HydraSucréLA bringup! 🎺

Open source sw/hw/gateware logic analyzer incoming!

It's already capturing 🎉 🥳

Pro tips when using Migen's SyncFIFO() module in your pipeline design...

I went from 70 MHz max frequency to 100+ MHz by just adding this parameter: `buffered=True`

It helped a lot for timing closure of the design :)

Nice! nextpnr-xilinx in the #openxc7 #opensource #FPGA toolchain now can place and route a #LiTeX GTX transceiver test design.
