First, I'm mostly an analog engineer just now getting into microcontroller design. I'll be using the XC167 and am have trouble finding external memory. I have 12MB of external memory area and am therefore looking for 12MB of memory. Ive been looking for synchronous DRAM but can only find 64MB and greater. Does anybody have recommendations for external memory?
Did you get all your fuzzy feelings out, I hope so. There is absolutely no technical merit to your post above. I do not deal in feelings, if that is what you want to discuss, I suggest you find a forum on that subject. THE END unless you, as before, state that my attempt of terminating this useless discussion is "then you simply stop responding to points that you've been picked up on"
"Did you get all your fuzzy feelings out, I hope so." What are 'fuzzy feelings'? Are they the same as the yet unexplained 'cuddeling'? "There is absolutely no technical merit to your post above." There is technical merit in my post - I point out yet again that your sweeping statements about what is acceptable in a design are incorrect. This is of benefit to anyone who may be misled by those statements. "I do not deal in feelings" Being an engineer does not exempt you from being part of the human race. It does not give you the right to behave in a way that others find offensive. "if that is what you want to discuss, I suggest you find a forum on that subject" I have no interest in discussing feelings. I have merely pointed out that I am not alone in finding your attitude at best rude and at worst ignorant. "THE END unless you, as before, state that my attempt of terminating this useless discussion is "then you simply stop responding to points that you've been picked up on"" Well, that's exactly what you've done. As predicted.
i stated: "THE END unless you, as before, state that my attempt of terminating this useless discussion is "then you simply stop responding to points that you've been picked up on" Ok, you could not resist Well, that's exactly what you've done. As predicted. NO, NO, NO, NO, and NO again. I am trying to end this useless discussion, but it seems impossible to get you off your high moralistic horse and down to the real life - life is tough, not sweet and cuddling. There is technical merit in my post - I point out yet again that your sweeping statements about what is acceptable in a design are incorrect. Where do you find "not acceptable" in my post? "I think you are in deep doo-doo" does not say "not acceptable" it says "THINK". Again, this is not what I "find acceptable" it is what I see need clarification. Being an engineer does not exempt you from being part of the human race. It does not give you the right to behave in a way that others find offensive. If you would PLEASE have a look, you will see that the two "offensive" threads you refer to both have led to clarification followed by a reply. There are many threads where it took a lot of posts to get to the nitty gritty - but you would like the "language", here it took only a few posts (not counting your criticisms which have nothing to do with it) - but you have a problem with the "language". I also find it interesting that, as far as I can recall there has never been an OP that found my post "offensive". That it does not take much to get you to feel offended on the behalf of others, is another story. Erik ONCE MORE THE END unless you, as before, state that my attempt of terminating this useless discussion is "then you simply stop responding to points that you've been picked up on"
"I am trying to end this useless discussion" If you want to end the discussion, feel free to leave it. I'm quite happy to continue. "Where do you find "not acceptable" in my post? "I think you are in deep doo-doo" does not say "not acceptable" it says "THINK"." You also said: "ONCE MORE if you need 12Mbyte, you have chosen the wrong processor" Which would give me the impression that you think 12MB is 'not acceptable', as it would anyone else reading it. "If you would PLEASE have a look, you will see that the two "offensive" threads you refer to both have led to clarification followed by a reply." I quoted you from one thread where you you were particularly rude. There is no clarification or reply in that thread, nor an apology. "There are many threads where it took a lot of posts to get to the nitty gritty - but you would like the "language", here it took only a few posts (not counting your criticisms which have nothing to do with it) - but you have a problem with the "language"." I have more of a problem with the technical content of your posts in this thread than with your language. I have repeatedly explained this problem to you, as has Walt, but you refuse to bend. Instead you focus on complaining that I shouldn't comment on your 'person', 'verbage' or 'language'. "I also find it interesting that, as far as I can recall there has never been an OP that found my post "offensive". That it does not take much to get you to feel offended on the behalf of others, is another story." You seem to be ruder to newbies than to regular posters. I suspect the newbies aren't sure how to react and therefore keep quiet. I'm not offended in the least, but I do feel sorry for those who find themselves on the receiving end of your attitude. "ONCE MORE THE END" How many more times do you plan to say that? "unless you, as before, state that my attempt of terminating this useless discussion is "then you simply stop responding to points that you've been picked up on"" Oops! There you go again... This discussion wouldn't be useless if you'd actually try and understand it.
There is no clarification or reply in that thread, Oh yes, ther is an indented code (as I requested) and a reply (from me) about a problem. "ONCE MORE THE END" How many more times do you plan to say that? Till you stop. This discussion wouldn't be useless if you'd actually try and understand it. I understand it perfectly. As I do not express the same opinion as you, but a dfifferent one, you get upset. Erik
"Oh yes, ther is an indented code (as I requested) and a reply (from me) about a problem." And a whole lot more unjustified criticism stemming from the fact that you were wrong. "Till you stop." How utterly childish. If you want to continue with the discussion please do so, but these comments devoid of content intended to ensure that you have the last word are pathetic. "I understand it perfectly." No, you haven't got there yet. "As I do not express the same opinion as you, but a dfifferent one, you get upset." You present your opinions as facts. They are not. This is the root of the problem that you refuse to, or cannot, understand.
Erik, Stefan, can you please both calm down, or at least continue this by now quite pointless discussion in private? Seriously, looking at the last half-dozen or so posts of yours here reminds me of nothing if not this old wisecrack: A: "Why do you always have to have the last word?" B: "But how am I supposed to know you don't want to say something anymore?"
Erik, Stefan, can you please both calm down, or at least continue this by now quite pointless discussion in private? Hans-Bernhard, I gladly will. Let Stefans last post stand as it is repeating a lot of things I already have refuted. Erik
I'm Laughing my f***ing ass off.............You guys are Hilarious!
Mike, AFAIK the XC has no contiguous 12MB memory area inside that 16MB space. You will find (nearly) 12MB starting from 0x10000 if you do not use the TwinCAN.
Mike, in the hope we can discuss technical issues without interference some questions" 1) has "the programmer" used this group of chips before ? 2) is "the programmer aware of the board size including 24 memory chips ? 3) is there not a limit to the size of the board ? 4) has "the programmer" stated the size of flash and RAM as separate numbers. ?
