Wow, one FPGA of the largest size..... Now what does it do? Oh well it is an AI module helping people to find ways how to reduce global warming ;-) LOL They have been pooring kilo dollars into AI for many years..... Hey, I have a ready design, my 5 Watt webserver (and it really works): OK I did not do most of the hardware and not most of the software.... But genius is putting the right parts together in the right way :-) http://panteltje.com/panteltje/wap54g/index.html#wapserver I do not play in contests, never. Note to self: Do not post this, will overload server.
