Design Example (cont’d)

Implementation steps

1.

Choose HW or SW implementation per operation

2.

Design the analog IO parts

3.

Design the Printed Circuit Board (PCB)

1.

Pass the PCB files to manufacturing firms

4.

HW: Develop the FPGA contents

1.

Program the FPGA configuration EEPROM

5.

SW: Develop the 8051 program

1.

Program the 8051 instruction memory (EEPROM)

6.

Integrate HW, SW, and the PCB

7.

Test

1.

Limited test in isolation (as far as possible)

2.

Test in action (on the robot)

Analysis

Development

Isolated (SW, HW, Analog electronics)

Consistency check: designers

Debug

Before PCB is available

Isolated (SW, HW, Analog)

After PCB is available

1.

Remove the EEPROM/8051

2.

Change the configuration/program

3.

Re-insert the EEPROM/8051

What if PCB initial design (or analog parts) was wrong?

Analysis (cont’d)

Some other problems

Tools used

Protel, OrCAD for PCB

Altera MAX+Plus II for FPGA

8051 command-line compiler and debugger

Tool interoperability issues

Solution

Try to do as much of the tests as
early as possible in the design cycle

Step 1: Combine HW and SW simulation

Step 2: Add analog parts as well

Analog Mixed-Signal (AMS) simulation

Step 3: Entire design of the PCB?

Ideas for course project

Alternative 1: App. case study

1.

Select an embedded application

2.

Design an executable specification for it

3.

Step by step manually refine it to HW-SW implementation

4.

Report performance, area, power & compare with full-SW

& write a paper (optional)

Suggestions

Data compressor/decompressor

Voice codec

A game

JPEG, JPEG2000

Ideas for course project (cont’d)

Alternative 2: Methodology case study

1.

Select a system design language and

methodology

2.

Implement an application using them

3.

Give a presentation

Suggestions:

Handle-C & Celoxica “DK Design Suite”

SpecC & the associated tools from UCI

Tensilica’s processor generator (XTensa processor)

Ideas for course project (cont’d)

Alternative 3: Case study in ODYSSEY

1.

Select an application

2.

Develop an OO C++ program for that

3.

Implement it as HW-SW system using
ODYSSEY tools and flows

Suggestions

The same applications as in alternative 1

Alternative 4: Implement
algorithms

1.

Select one of the co-synthesis
algorithms (to be taught during the
course)

2.

Develop a program that implements
the algorithm for ODYSSEY
