Xilinx's tools provides the possibility of running software in simulation, or using a suitable FPGA-board to download and execute on the actual system. Purchasers of Vivado are granted a perpetual license to use MicroBlaze in Xilinx FPGAs with no recurring royalties. The license does not grant the right to use MicroBlaze outside of Xilinx's ...
PicoBlaze is the designation of a series of three free soft processor cores from Xilinx for use in their FPGA and CPLD products. They are based on an 8-bit RISC architecture and can reach speeds up to 100 MIPS on the Virtex 4 FPGA's family.
Xilinx produced the first commercially viable field-programmable gate array in 1985 [3] – the XC2064. [5] The XC2064 had programmable gates and programmable interconnects between gates, the beginnings of a new technology and market. [6] The XC2064 had 64 configurable logic blocks (CLBs), with two three-input lookup tables (LUTs). [7]
Xilinx's Embedded Developer's Kit (EDK) supports the embedded PowerPC 405 and 440 cores (in Virtex-II Pro and some Virtex-4 and -5 chips) and the Microblaze core. Xilinx's System Generator for DSP implements DSP designs on Xilinx FPGAs. A freeware version of its EDA software called ISE WebPACK is used with some of its non-high-performance chips.
Virtex is the flagship family of FPGA products currently developed by AMD, originally Xilinx before being acquired by the former. [1] Other current product lines include Kintex (mid-range) and Artix (low-cost), each including configurations and models optimized for different applications. [2]
An Altera MAX 7000-series CPLD with 2500 gates. Die of an Altera EPM7032 EEPROM-based Complex Programmable Logic Device (CPLD).Die size 3446x2252 μm. Technology node 1 μm. A complex programmable logic device (CPLD) is a programmable logic device with complexity between that of PALs and FPGAs, and architectural features of both.
In computing, a logic block or configurable logic block (CLB) is a fundamental building block of field-programmable gate array (FPGA) technology. [ citation needed ] Logic blocks can be configured by the engineer to provide reconfigurable logic gates .
Probes are added directly to the RTL design to make specific signals available for observation. When the system is run, the RTL-based probe connected to each of the instrumented signals collects the signal's value at each clock cycle. The data is stored in a trace buffer in FPGA block RAM.
