Costs of IPs

Hi

Can anyone please give me an rough overview about prices of IPs for the Xilinx Virtex II Pro? i.e.

10/100 Ethernet CAN-Controller LIN - Local Interconnect Network Bus Controller (iLIN) Do I have to pay for each sold piece or one time or one time per project?

Frank, I'm not being rude, but that's kinda like asking "Can you give me a brief overview of the price of cars fuelled by petrol? i.e. SUV Compact Luxury Do I have to lease, finance or purchase?"

To answer your question, you gotta go to your local IP mall!

Have a nice weekend, Syms

Yes, it is this kind of asking. In your example i think i can give an answer. But with IPs? Do I have to think about 100$ or 100.000$ for an ethernet mac? If every IP like the listed examples is about 10.000$ or more I don't have to think about it any longer. If someone has examples, it would be nice.

is free on opencores

is free on opencores

LIN is basically simple UART protocol can be handled with UART + SW or even software only

beware the "free" is not completly free as it often not complete lacks documenation and or support

The non public IP cores are targetted at high volume stuff. So unless you're there, forget them.

the ethernet ip from opencore is for wishbone. is it possible to connect it to a powerpc core?

hm, we have succesfully connected several wishbone peripheral cores to OPB bus (used in Virtex2Pro PowerPC systems). I havent checked if the ehternet core requires busmastering or not. Without bus mastering the OPB to wishbone adaption is fairly simple.

Erm, not if you want to master the sync break right... 13 consecutive low bits doesn't come out of the UARTs I've used.

I've seen it work with SW only, but it's not spec compliant...
