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. -
Development of Softcore Processor
IJRET: International Journal of Research in Engineering and Technology eISSN: 2319-1163 | pISSN: 2321-7308 DEVELOPMENT OF SOFTCORE PROCESSOR Mohammed Zaheer1, A.M Khan2 1Research Student Department of Electronics Mangalore University, Karnataka, India 2proffesor chairman, Department of Electronics Mangalore University, Karnataka, India Abstract Designing of softcore processor on FPGA is based on software hardware co design. A soft-core processor is a hardware description language (HDL) model of a specific processor (CPU) that can be customized for a given application and synthesized for an ASIC or FPGA target. Embedded Systems which performs specific application using components having hardware and software together is known as embedded system. With hardware design getting complicated day by day, using of software tools for designing the system and testing has made the necessity of today’s technology. Due to the reduced size and greater complexity of hardware models, it requires a higher technological tool for simulation to satisfy the needs of the designers. The more efficient the simulator, complexity in the hardware model can be easily executed in small intervals of time, resulting in design product in a stipulated time intervals. The design of soft core processor system involves strict performance involving area, time, power, cost constraints. Advantages of Softcore processor design improves in design quality reduce integration and test time, supporting growing complexity of embedded system, processor cores, high level hardware synthesizing capabilities, ASIC/FPGA development and platform independence. Xilinx microblaze softcore processor support package allows to create mixed Hardware Software application using micro blaze processor. These processors are called as soft-core processor. -

Accelerated V2X Provisioning with Extensible Processor Platform
Accelerated V2X provisioning with Extensible Processor Platform Henrique S. Ogawa1, Thomas E. Luther1, Jefferson E. Ricardini1, Helmiton Cunha1, Marcos Simplicio Jr.2, Diego F. Aranha3, Ruud Derwig4 and Harsh Kupwade-Patil1 1 America R&D Center (ARC), LG Electronics US Inc. {henrique1.ogawa,thomas.luther,jefferson1.ricardini,helmiton1.cunha}@lge.com [email protected] 2 University of Sao Paulo, Brazil [email protected] 3 Aarhus University, Denmark [email protected] 4 Synopsys Inc., Netherlands [email protected] Abstract. With the burgeoning Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) communication, security and privacy concerns are paramount. Such concerns are usually mitigated by combining cryptographic mechanisms with a suitable key management architecture. However, cryptographic operations may be quite resource-intensive, placing a considerable burden on the vehicle’s V2X computing unit. To assuage this issue, it is reasonable to use hardware acceleration for common cryptographic primitives, such as block ciphers, digital signature schemes, and key exchange protocols. In this scenario, custom extension instructions can be a plausible option, since they achieve fine-tuned hardware acceleration with a low to moderate logic overhead, while also reducing code size. In this article, we apply this method along with dual-data memory banks for the hardware acceleration of the PRESENT block cipher, as well as for the F2255−19 finite field arithmetic employed in cryptographic primitives based on Curve25519 (e.g., EdDSA and X25519). As a result, when compared with a state-of-the-art software-optimized implementation, the performance of PRESENT is improved by a factor of 17 to 34 and code size is reduced by 70%, with only a 4.37% increase in FPGA logic overhead.
