Sellers account was brand new and 0 feedback2. Seller only accepts money transfer to bank account, so no paypal and no buyer protection3. Seller did not answer any of my questionsNow, what do you think, was this a fraud auction or real?I stopped bidding at around 2000 Eurohttp://www.ebay.de/itm/252134972931

content: I think I have one on my shelf too from some earlier project that never happened. I looked but couldn't find it; too many eval boards, I guess... Essentially, we chose Altera Cyclone IV GX over Lattice for many reasons: better documentation, better tools and better company (Xilinx and Altera having the largest share, lattice only a minor)!Did you ever work with the Lattice software and devices? What are the summary in terms of good and bad? Any reason to use compared to Altera tools and devices?/John.

content: Lattice's Diamond has been steadily improving, one big thing is their ILA called Reveal which is far better than Xilinx's chipscope (and doesn't require subscription edition). Lattice parts may fit your niche in a way that X/A can't, in my case it was that the ECP3 is able to actually support DDR3 dimms with write leveling, which only Altera Stratix IV+ and xilinx 7 series support. Lattice parts are also available with a volume discount from low volume suppliers (digikey, mouser etc) unlike the other two vendors.

I've been using Mach XO and XO2 CPLDs in the past, and would like to find a project that can use some of the low cost iCE40 parts now.Quote from: blueskull on October 18, 2015, 06:12:43 amIt's a fantastic price, you should grab it if you think you can use it. You don't need it in a PCIe slot because you can use it standalone, flat on the desk. it doesn't need to be in a slot, unless you want to actually transfer data on the PCIe bus.

Low-cost Cyclone and Arria only support DDR2 up to 200/267 MHz. So far that's been enough (I've gone wide rather than fast) but DDR3 might be useful in the future.

[WTB] FM dipole antennas with banana plugs - Page 1

content: HelloLooking for around 10 - 20 FM Dipole antennas with banana plugs like those used on older FM radios...Preferrably EU/Germany/Ebay....So far I've only found dipole antennas with coaxial female plugs on Ebay...

author: Richard Crowley
author_rank: Super Contributor
timestamp: October 25, 2015, 12:32:26 pm
content: Dipole antennas are naturally balanced (what you seem to be calling "banana plugs").They require addition of a BALUN transformer to become unbalanced ("coaxial plug").So it would appear that simply removing the balun transformer would create a balanced output which you want.(BALUN is an abbreviation for BALanced to UNbalanced)

timestamp: October 25, 2015, 10:40:13 pm
content: I don't think it's a question of balancing or unbalancing; I think the OP is looking for balanced - 300 ohm feeder dipoles aerials that are terminated with a (horrible, horrible) two-pin jack/banana plug. Something like this:http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/271924489939The jack plugs were often brown in colour and were good for one or possibly two insertions before becoming intermittent (not saying that I hate the things but ...).

content: Yes, the T-shape "folded-dipole" antenna made from 300-ohm "twin-lead" is very common for reception of the FM broadcast band. And that kind of antenna is naturally balanced.Here in North America, it was common to use spade-lugs on the 300-ohm twin-lead which attach to screw terminal strips. Apparently you have some sort of standard plug-in connector for use with balanced antenna connections. The photo doesn't show what we would normally call "banana plug".

My advise: if you are in the need of a logic analyzer: get this, you will not regret.@alank2: this item is very small and light weight: you should consider to ship it world-wide e.g. with USPS. Shipping of such a small package with USPS as a Priority Mail International Small Flat Rate Box is $26.50.Allowing worldwide shipping broadens your potential buyer base a lot.I never understand why US people often offer shipping to residents customer only and not shipping world wide. Such a behavior almost unknown in the rest of the world. Maybe somebody can explain this to me. (Of course I would understand if they would exclude specific countries such as Iran, Pakistan, Russia ....).
