摘要:
An embedded system bus is woven between a plurality of embedded master elements and at least one slave element within the FPGA device, and provides an external processor interface allowing direct access to any of the plurality of embedded slave elements. Using the embedded system bus, any of a plurality of masters may be allowed to program an embedded element, e.g., embedded FPGA logic, whereas conventional FPGAs allowed only a single master (e.g., a processor) to program the embedded FPGA logic. The embedded system bus is a group of signals, typically data, address and control, that connects system elements together and provides a basic protocol for the flow of data. The embedded system bus allows for control, configuration and status determination of the FPGA device. The embedded system bus is preferably a dedicated function available at all times for arbitrated access to allow communication between the various embedded system components.
摘要:
The various embodiments of the invention provide an apparatus, system and method for data content deskewing among a plurality of data channels for data synchronization. The various embodiments determine whether a data alignment signal has been written, for each data channel of the plurality of data channels, such as a comma character. When a data alignment signal has been written in a data channel of the plurality of data channels, the embodiments determine a corresponding channel location of the data alignment signal for each data channel having the data alignment signal. When each data channel of the plurality of data channels has the data alignment signal, and when the data alignment signal is to be read on a next read cycle in at least one data channel, the various embodiments move a corresponding read pointer for each data channel of the plurality of data channels to the corresponding channel location of the data alignment signal. The data alignment signal is then read in all channels during the next read cycle, followed by subsequent reading of deskewed or otherwise synchronized data, such as for conversion of parallel data into serial data for subsequent data transmission.
