I am creating my own test IP and can't find the proper way to generate external NET connection with logic using graphics tools of EDK how do I generate the "mytest_rx_pin" entries in system.ucf ? (In port flat view, I never had the choice to "make an external connection" in my tes_0 instance, as said in docs...) my test is rather simple : I want access from microblaze to H13 button as in : value = XIo32_In(0x42000000); (value changes if buton is pressed) my config is spartan3E starter kit and EDK 8.1. user_logic.vhd -=-=-=-=-=-=-= ... signal data : std_logic; ...

I just did this yesterday for the first time. I had EDK generate my peripheral and then I had to edit .ucf, .mhs, .mpd, peripheral.vhd, AND user_logic.vhd to add my clock and ADC lines.

which FPGA are you using? All the families, basically, have embedded RAM blocks which can be easily instantiated both in a schematic and hdl way. I did it few times with Altera chips APEX and FLEX and turned out very simple on quartus. I usually make a schematic, place the block that I need, follow the wizard and once is done i export the vhdl so that I will place it in my hierarchy. There's going to be an easier way though, this is just the one I worked out by myself. cheers Al ashu_19_1980@yahoo.com wrote: > hiiiiiii, > > I am designing a switch controller to be implemented on > FPGA,i need to map memory blocks to FPGA,are there any libraries to do > this?Does the simulator automatically map the memory?if so give me an > example how to do this. > > regards, > hema. > -- Alessandro Basili CERN, PH/UGC Hardware DesignerArticle: 110582

If you aregoing to drive a cable between two different pieces of equipment, then 8B/10B encoding is superior for a number of reasons. If you are going point to point (between two boards in a chassis) then start/stop may be sufficient. Start/stop has a lower overhead than 8B/10B encoding, so your power will be a little lower (effective line rate at 1.6Gb.s throughput -> 1.8Gb/s) than 8B/10B encoding (line rate 1.92Gb/s), but start/stop has run lengths of up to 17 bits where 8B/10B encoding has a maximum run length of 5. This simplifies coupling (for AC coupled signals, such as across cables). The shorter run length also simplifies the interconnect ac model (by limiting the low frequency end of the effective bandwidth). 8B/10B encoding also has low DC wander (zero across long times) whereas start/stop does not. Much depends on 'what you want to connect to' and how. Cheers PeteSArticle: 110583
Hello, I'd like to know if there is any documentation on the (presumably normal) form of the LUT boolean equations as used by Xilinx to describe the LUT's operation in fpga_editor and xdl files, and if there is any existing algorithm to get this normalized equation from the LUT's memory contents. Thank you, JBArticle: 110584

Hi, I am having a problem with simulation of EDIF netlist file. I have generated EDIF file using leonardospectrum synthesis tool, then created a Xilinx project with ISE and provided the ucf file. But here, I am not able to get the sdf and timesim files for the timing simulation. Please, tell me how to go about this.Article: 110586

AFAIK there is no better/faster way of doing this. The documentation says: For peripheral creation, you must do the following: Indicate the module name and destination, such as the XPS project or EDK repository in which the peripheral must be stored. Select the bus interface to which the peripheral is targeted. For OPB/PLB peripherals, select and configure IPIF services. These are common functions required by most peripherals. If you select this, reduce the amount of HDL code you write. For FSL peripherals, select and configure the FSL bus interface and driver function. -> Implement user logic in generated files. This requires the use of common HDL-based design flows. Implement peripheral driver files. This requires the use of common software-based design flows. FrankArticle: 110587

Hello Markus, Thank you for the quick reply and the pointer. I also had a look at wikipedia before posting, which lists several algorithms for getting a boolean equation from a truth table. My question was more about the fact that the number of possible equations is huge, and I was under the impression that Xilinx used some kind of normal form for this, meaning that for each LUT content the equation as written in the XDL or NCD would be deterministic. I may have completely misunderstood the problem though. JBArticle: 110589

Figured this was the place to ask (comp.arch.embedded or comp.arch.fpga) Whats the cheapest board to study VHDL on? Ideally Id like an FPGA based board with a few inputs (dip switches,toggles?), some outputs (parallel or serial connector, some leds) < $100 I am looking on ebay now, and I see one or two boards well above $100. Any suggestions? Thanks in advanceArticle: 110595
Hi all, I'm new to the Xilinx FPGA FIR filter and would like to ask for help. I have two (X and Y) channels and their frequency is about 10Mhz. Using 2 14-bits ADC with sampling 50Mhz. I have my Xilinx clock about 50Mhz. How many taps for each channel is necessary for doing a cutoff frequency of 10MHz? How many bits should the coefficients length is? how to do a optimal design? I have to use FIR because my moving avaraging doesn't solve the problem. What other terms I need to consider? is my Spartan 3 xcs3s400 enough? 16 multipliers. is that 1 tap require 1 multiplier. If so, I would get a virtex II pro. board. At last, I want to say thank you for looking at my thread and I hope you can answer my questions. thanks again, Kenny,Article: 110596

I'm sure you have seen it on Ebay but have a look at our Raggedstone1. Ebay wise look for the non-EEC price if you are in the US. Similar pricing on our own website. It just about gets under you $100 mark depending on the current exchange rate. For something much cheaper you probably talking about a CPLD board.
