AnaDigIO dlk - boot-logic


The boot information for a ´dlk´ system comes out of a standard Flash-memory. The memory contains FPGA configuration data and the program memory of the CPU. Control of the boot sequence is done by a state machine realized in a non volatile, flash-based, CPLD.
  • several different FPGA configurations and several CPU programs can be saved in one single Flash-memory
  • the selection of the FPGA configuration file in Flash-memory is done by external signals or jumpers
  • the selection of the CPU program in Flash-memory is done by configurable logic within the FPGA
  • fast boot procedure of FPGA's due to parallel data path
  • use of inexpensive standard Flash-memory, dual-used for FPGA and CPU
  • comfortable programming and update of boot-logic via ´dlk´ internal JTAG emulation
  • use of inexpensive standard CPLD, not-used internal resources are available for user application
Open system, source code completely available. Adaptable to customized implementation (segment size, program size...).
