WP10 Implementation of a JTAG Master Controller for the reprogramming of the "User-FPGA"

Description


Regarding the extension of the project with the implementation of a JTAG Programming Master controller, the work package 10 includes the
  • extension of nanoFIP's functional specification
  • VHDL implementation of the Controller
  • testing with VHDL simulations
  • Bus Arbiter software developments
  • testing on real hardware


In collaboration with CERN, TE-EPC, the deliverables are

  • Updated nanoFIP functional Specification
  • VHDL code that implements a JTAG Master Controller
  • VHDL test bench that tests the JTAG Master Controller
  • Bus Arbiter software
  • Testbed

The estimated duration is
  • Four manmonths
