Re: [xl7] Any interest remaining in a self-programming FLASH SIMM?

Ok, an old post of yours mention DRAM. Was hoping maybe you had figured out some clever scheme to squeeze in refresh cycles while the P2k was busy doing other things.

Anyway, are you back to working on this? Can we help in any way to make it happen, such as donating money?

It would be too expensive to provide 32MB of SRAM, even VSRAM to simulate a single slot. It is better to have FLASH memory which is reprogrammed by the microcontroller on cue. (either from an SD card under the appropriate circumstances or via USB).
