The article, "Myths and Misconceptions about Hardware Hacking," http://www.cptwg.org/Assets/Presentations/ARDG/ARDGHardware_hack05-28-03.pdf offers some interesting insight into the current capabilities and trends of hardware hackers. A particularly interesting item is the easy with which relatively high performance Flash A/D converters can be constructed using external resistors and the LVDS comparators inside the FPGAs. A 6-bit, 10 MHz+, design is offered. Is anyone on the list able to offer a competent analysis of how practical this is for some of the applications being discussed on list? How far can one reasonably extend this to higher bit depth and speed? Is it cost/performace effective?
