    摘要: A Direct Memory Access (DMA) system is provided for simplified communication between a processor and IP cores in an FPGA. The DMA system includes use of dual-port BRAM as a buffer and a decoder as a DMA control signal identification mechanism. The DMA control signals are stored in an area of the BRAM memory recognized by the decoder using chip enable (CE), write enable (WE), and address (ADR) signals. The decoder, upon recognizing a DMA control signal, will generate an event vector. The event vector triggers a READ operation by the receiving device at the associated BRAM control data memory address. DMA control codes can be detected as sent from either the processor or the IP core or both, depending upon whether the system employs a MASTER/SLAVE, SLAVE/MASTER, or PEER/PEER control model.

    摘要: A direct memory access (“DMA”)-based multi-processor array architecture that may be implemented in a single integrated circuit is described. The integrated circuit includes a plurality of processing units. A first processing unit and a second processing unit of the plurality of processing units are topologically coupled via a first DMA block. The first DMA block includes a first dual-ported random access memory and a first decoder. A multiple-processor array is provided by topologically coupling the first processing unit and the second processing unit via the first direct memory access block.
