  1. 6. Improving an FPGA Optimized Processor

    University essay from Datorteknik

    Author : Mahdad Davari; [2011]
    Keywords : FPGA; Soft Microprocessor Core; IP; Cache; Exception Handling; MIPS;

    Abstract : This work aims at improving an existing soft microprocessor core optimized for Xilinx Virtex®-4 FPGA. Instruction and data caches will be designed and implemented. Interrupt support will be added as well, preparing the microprocessor core to host operating systems. Thorough verification of the added modules is also emphasized in this work. READ MORE

  3. 7. Handheld Navigation System Implementation on FPGA Board

    University essay from JTH, Data- och elektroteknik

    Author : Thamer Salman Ali; [2011]
    Keywords : GPS; Compass; FPGA; DE2 Board; Quartus-II; Nios-II;

    Abstract : The widespread use of navigation devices is increasing rapidly. This all becomes possible mainly due to increased development of hardware, for instance increased computing power (e.g. microcontroller, GPS, Compass) and software. READ MORE

  4. 8. Adapting an FPGA-optimized  microprocessor to the MIPS32 instruction set

    University essay from Datorteknik

    Author : Olof Andersson; Karl Bengtsson; [2010]
    Keywords : FPGA; Xilinx; Virtex-4; MicroBlaze; soft core processor; optimized; MIPS; MIPS32; Coremark;

    Abstract : Nowadays, FPGAs are large enough to host entire system-on-chip designs, wherein a soft core processor is often an integral part. High performance of the processor is always desirable, so there is an interest in finding faster solutions.This report aims to describe the work and results performed by Karl Bengtson and Olof Andersson at ISY.

  5. 9. Implementation of Elementary Functions for a Fixed Point SIMD DSP Coprocessor

    University essay from Datorteknik

    Author : Orri Tomasson; [2010]
    Keywords : SIMD; DSP; mathematical functions; elementary functions; polynomial approximation; fixed-point arithmetic;

    Abstract : This thesis is about implementing the functions for reciprocal, square root, inverse square root and logarithms on a DSP platform. A multi-core DSP platform that consists of one master processor core and several SIMD coprocessor cores is currently being designed by a team at the Computer Engineering Department of Linköping University.
