Implementation, Verification and Validation of an Openrisc-1200
(IJACSA) International Journal of Advanced Computer Science and Applications, Vol. 10, No. 1, 2019 Implementation, Verification and Validation of an OpenRISC-1200 Soft-core Processor on FPGA Abdul Rafay Khatri Department of Electronic Engineering, QUEST, NawabShah, Pakistan Abstract—An embedded system is a dedicated computer system in which hardware and software are combined to per- form some specific tasks. Recent advancements in the Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) technology make it possible to implement the complete embedded system on a single FPGA chip. The fundamental component of an embedded system is a microprocessor. Soft-core processors are written in hardware description languages and functionally equivalent to an ordinary microprocessor. These soft-core processors are synthesized and implemented on the FPGA devices. In this paper, the OpenRISC 1200 processor is used, which is a 32-bit soft-core processor and Fig. 1.

For verification and debugging purpose, a software toolchain from (RISC) processor. This processor consists of all necessary GNU is configured and installed. The software is written in C components which are available in any other microproces- and Assembly languages. The communication between the host computer and FPGA board is carried out through the serial RS- sor. These components are connected through a bus called 232 port. Wishbone bus.

Softcores for FPGA: the Free and Open Source Alternatives
Softcores for FPGA: The Free and Open Source Alternatives Jeremy Bennett and Simon Cook, Embecosm Abstract Open source soft cores have reached a degree of maturity. You can find them in products as diverse as a Samsung set-top box, NXP's ZigBee chips and NASA's TechEdSat. In this article we'll look at some of the more widely used: the OpenRISC 1000 from OpenCores, Gaisler's LEON family, Lattice Semiconductor's LM32 and Oracle's OpenSPARC, as well as more bleeding edge research designs such as BERI and CHERI from Cambridge University Computer Laboratory. We'll consider the technology, the business case, the engineering risks, and the licensing challenges of using such designs. What do we mean by “free” “Free” is an overloaded term in English. It can mean something you don't pay for, as in “this beer is free”. But it can also mean freedom, as in “you are free to share this article”. It is this latter sense that is central when we talk about free software or hardware designs. Of course such software or hardware designs may also be free, in the sense that you don't have to pay for them, but that is secondary. “Free” software in this sense has been around for a very long time. Explicitly since 1993 and Richard Stallman's GNU Manifesto, but implicitly since the first software was written and shared with colleagues and friends. That freedom is achieved by making the source code available, so others can modify the program, hence the more recent alternative name “open source”, but it is freedom that remains the key concept. -

Five Ways to Build Flexibility Into Industrial Applications with Fpgas by Jason Chiang and Stefano Zammattio, Altera Corporation
Five Ways to Build Flexibility into Industrial Applications with FPGAs by Jason Chiang and Stefano Zammattio, Altera Corporation WP-01154-2.0 White Paper This document describes using an Altera® industrial-grade FPGA as a coprocessor or system on a chip (SoC) to bring flexibility to industrial applications. Providing a single, highly integrated platform for multiple industrial products, Altera FPGAs can substantially reduce development time and risk. Introduction Programmable logic devices (PLDs) are a critical component in embedded industrial designs. PLDs have evolved in industrial designs from providing simple glue logic, to the use of an FPGAs as a coprocessor. This technique allows for I/O expansion and off loads the primary microcontroller (MCU) or digital signal processor (DSP) device in applications such as communications, motor control, I/O modules, and image processing. As system complexity increases, FPGAs also offer the ability to integrate an entire SoC, at a lower cost compared to discrete MCU, DSP, ASSP, or ASIC solutions. Whether used as a coprocessor or SoC, Altera FPGAs offer the following advantages for your industrial applications: 1. Design Integration—Simplify and reduce cost by using an FPGA as a coprocessor or SoC that integrates the IP and software stacks on a single device platform. 2. Reprogrammability—Adapt industrial designs to evolving protocols, IP improvements, and new hardware features within one FPGA on a common development platform. 3. Performance Scaling—Enhance performance via embedded processors, custom instructions, and IP blocks within the FPGA to meet your system requirements. 4. Obsolescence Protection—Increase industrial product life cycles and provide protection against hardware obsolescence through long FPGA life cycles and device migration to new FPGA families. -
