Re: PE0FKO/DG8SAQ firmware conversion to Si5351A?

 

Hi Mike,

A way to get around the memory limitations and make the porting easier would be to use a processor with more memory.? These days you should be able to get something in the same price range with more memory and processor capabilities for close to the same price, or at least still saving money when taking into account the money saved on the oscillator.

Alan,
Well, the goal is software compatibility with the original Softrock (to the extent possible).
But if this is too much of a challenge for me, I'll switch to some other approach.
I think CAT control is a more portable/multiplatform solution than ExtIO DLL. There are already programs to do this, for example one by WA6PZB:

I'll just need to port it to Attiny85 with a smaller Si5351A library and a different I2C. Maybe also do the quadrature output.
But then it is no longer a Softrock.
