VALID: Custom ASIC Verification and FPGA Education Platform
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes VALID, a platform for testing student designed ASICs and for teaching the basics of FPGA design. VALID is designed to maximize ease of use from a student’s perspective while maintaining enough flexibility for its use as an FPGA development and instruction platform. This system was designed entirely by students, has been successfully manufactured and is currently being used in a number of courses at Rice.

An FPGA-based Experiment Platform for Hardware-Software Codesign and Hardware Emulation
With increasing number of hardware-software systems, there is a need for mechanisms to assist with the efficient design and verification of such systems. Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA) have evolved to provide a practical experimentation and verification platform for emulation of hardware without the non-recurring engineering (NRE) costs of ASIC hardware. In this paper we describe in deta...
متن کاملSimplifying SoC design with the Customizable Control Processor Platform
With the circuit density available in today’s ASIC design systems, increased integration is possible creating more complexity in the design of a System on a Chip (SoC). IBM’s Customizable Control Processor (CCP) [1,2] addresses the new challenges facing design engineers by identifying the common features required in most SoC designs, and creating a hardened platform that can be used as a starti...
متن کاملHigh Performance Architectures for OMP Compressive Sensing Reconstruction Algorithm
Compressive Sensing (CS) is a novel scheme, in which a signal that is sparse in a known transform domain can be reconstructed using fewer samples. The signal reconstruction techniques are computationally intensive and power consuming, which makes them impractical for embedded applications . The paper presents novel architectures for Orthogonal Matching Pursuit algorithm, one of the popular CS r...
متن کاملModel-Based FPGA Embedded-Processor Systems Design Methodologies: Modeling, Syntheses, Implementation and Validation
The evolution of field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) as custom-computing machines for digital signal processing (DSP), real-time embedded and reconfigurable systems development, embedded processors, and as co-processors for application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) prototyping has led to the emergence of several modeling and design methodologies among which are the register transfer lev...
متن کاملA Technical Report on Design Space Exploration and CLB Customization for Application-Specific FPGAs
The inclusion of field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) within a system-on-a-chip (SOC) design offers programmability, flexibility, and reconfigurability not possible with applicationspecific integrated circuits (ASIC) or full-custom implementations. However, these benefits come at the expense of significant area, performance, and power consumption overheads compared to ASIC or full-custom circ...
