Advantages of Minimig with ethernet:
- No need to use flashmemories
- Faster
- Can be used online
- Faster development cycle (edit - test - crash ..)
- Handle decompression of disc images
Relativly simple. Needs only an ethernet PHY in essence. Thoe only 4 user i/o is free = problem.
A cheapskate version is to use on pin per direction without protective magnetics for 10Base-T networking. Uses easy manchester encoding.
An I/O expansion could otherwise be done with an external fpga-2 that communicates with the first one via a highspeed bus.
