Building a Stand-alone JTAG FPGA Flasher

By Nulltek

Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs), are powerful programmable logic devices that are commonly used in high-performance / high-complexity low-volume electronic designs. FPGAs differ from many other programmable electronic devices, such as micro-controllers, as the software deployed to them doesn’t “execute”. This software actually configures the structure of the FPGA hardware, such that it can perform…

NullTek Disciple – Bringing UART OS to an Open-Source Embedded Platform

By Nulltek

It’s become apparent that a I need a configurable multipurpose embedded control system. This is something I have been theorizing the designs for since I was in university (See Butterfly Board). Now with me putting a more intense focus on developing out the NullTek open-ecosystem, I would like to design and build a controlling ‘hub’…
