15 Dec 2010, Stefan Ritt, Info, New source file structure of MSCB tree
|
A long planned modification of the source file structure of the MSCB subsystem has been implemented. This is however only for those people who do actively
participate in micro controller programming with MSCB. The idea behind this is tha the central include file [B]mscbemb.h[/B] had a section for each new

Just for completeness: Attached is the VME transfer speed I get with the SIS3100/SIS1100 interface using
2eVME transfer. This curve can be explained exactly with an overhead of 125 us per DMA transfer and a
continuous link speed of 83 MB/sec. |
