    摘要: A circuit that includes a core device that is embedded within fixed interfacing logic circuitry that, in turn, is embedded in an FPGA fabric. The FPGA fabric may be configured into a test mode of operation to test either the embedded device or fixed logic devices formed within the fixed interfacing logic. While the FPGA is configured in a test mode, test circuitry and communication paths are made present within the fixed interfacing logic circuitry to facilitate the testing. Additionally, the test circuitry comprises isolation circuitry that is formed between various modules and circuits that are to be tested to isolate the device under test and to produce test signals thereto and there from during testing operations.

    摘要: Generation of consistent connection data for a first circuit embedded in a second circuit. In one approach, a master file is established with design data that includes for each pin in the embedded circuit, a hardware description language (HDL) pin name from an HDL description of the embedded circuit, a schematic pin name of the second circuit to which a corresponding pin in the embedded circuit is to connect, a signal direction associated with the pin, and a name of a clock to trigger a signal on the pin. A plurality of design views are generated from the master file. Each design view has a unique format relative to the other design views and includes for each pin in the embedded circuit design, at least the HDL pin name, the associated schematic pin name, and a signal direction associated with the pin.
