Last labs today.

Today is the last of the 8:30AM labs (and soon the 2:00PM labs), which is too bad. I really had a good time with the students. I'm now drinking my morning coffee and working on a weird compilation error I'm getting on my FPGA  project. It would seem as though the compiler thinks that one of my pins is a clock pin, which isn't true, and it's complaining about it. 

Once that is done, I'm ready to test the interface at low speeds. I bought a USB-Serial adapter so I can plug into the serial out port on the ML402 board. This will allow me to see what is going on as the processor I've placed on the ML402 executes its code. It'll definitely work as a proof-of-concept that all my stuff works, and then *I just need to figure out the Ethernet connection. Of course, compilation errors are rarely referred to as easy to fix.
