13:51 <modrobert> hello

13:51 <modrobert> would a this fpga board be suitable for litex? https://www.xilinx.com/products/boards-and-kits/ek-s6-sp605-g.html#hardware

13:53 <modrobert> if not, roughly, what additions or changes might be involved to get it running?

13:55 <modrobert> after looking at this: https://github.com/litex-hub/litex-boards

13:56 <modrobert> closest match would be 'pipistrello'

13:58 <_florent_> Hi modrobert,

13:58 <_florent_> we already have the SP605 platform: https://github.com/litex-hub/litex-boards/blob/master/litex_boards/platforms/xilinx_sp605.py

13:59 <modrobert> _florent_: thanks!

13:59 <_florent_> but it's only suporting some of the peripherals of the board: Clock/UART/Ethernet

14:00 <_florent_> For DRAM, you could look at the others Spartan6 boards with DRAM

14:00 <_florent_> for PCIe, Spartan6 is not supported (could be but hasn't been done)

14:01 <_florent_> If you already have this board, you'll be able to use it and already create simple SoCs with LiteX

14:01 <_florent_> if you want to go further with this board, it will require some work

14:02 <_florent_> If you are just planning to buy this board, I would recommend switching to an Artix7 or ECP5 that have better support in LiteX

14:02 <modrobert> yes, that's fine, was thinking more along the lines if something essential was missing (bought the board in 2011 iirc, kind of old)

14:05 <_florent_> you will not find a specific target for this board, but it should be possible it should be able to build the simple target on it: https://github.com/litex-hub/litex-boards/blob/master/litex_boards/targets/simple.py

14:05 <modrobert> noted about Artix7

14:05 <modrobert> ok

14:06 <_florent_> python3 simple.py litex_boards.platforms.sp605 --build

14:07 <_florent_> This will generate a SoC with ROM/SRAM/CPU/UART

14:09 <modrobert> thanks again
