And some chips are famous for being "noisier" than other chips, despite similar clock speeds.
Very interesting point. Thanks for the advice.
Might you suggest how I might discover this? My candidates are ST Micro STM32F and NXP LPC13xx or LPC17xx. I've been recommended SM32F by a very capable person, but he is using many-layer boards as his system is digital video (very high speeds).
Good show on the Maple team actually paying attention to such things;
Yes a wonderful example. I am very impressed.
I don't know if other would-be "improvers" take the same care.
I understand that I don't understand all of the difficulties, but I'd like to try to follow them. The Leaflabs Maple is an inspirational piece of work.
For some of the projects we'd like to try (like an onboard interpreter), it gets easier with single address-space, 32-bit machines and a good amount of RAM (64K+), though that won't be the first goal!
