Abstract:
A method for configuring an interface unit of a computer system with a first processor and a second processor stored in the interface unit. A data link is set up between the first processor and the second processor. A peripheral of the computer system is configured to store input data in an input data channel and to read output data from an output data channel, and the second processor is configured to read the input data from the input data channel and to store output data in the output data channel. A sequence of processor commands for the second processor is created such that a number of subsequences is created.
Abstract:
An interface unit for data exchange between a first processor of a computer system and a peripheral environment. The interface unit has a number of input data channels for receiving input data from the peripheral environment and a first access management unit. The access management unit is configured to receive a request for providing the input data, stored in the number of input data channels, from a first interface processor stored in the interface unit and from a second interface processor stored in the interface unit and to provide or not to provide the input data, stored in the number of input data channels, to the first interface processor and the second interface processor. A first priority and a second priority can be stored in the first access management unit.
Abstract:
An apparatus for testing an electrical component, having a simulation unit for producing a simulation signal, a plurality of test units, and at least one electrical connecting device, whereby the simulation unit and the plurality of test units are connected or connectable to each other in an electrically conductive fashion via the at least one connecting device, and the at least one connecting device has at least one electrical switch device, which is situated to make or break an electrical connection between the plurality of test units.
Abstract:
A method for operating a real-time-capable simulation network having multiple network nodes for computing a simulation model. The network nodes are connected to one another via a serial data bus, and the network nodes exchange data via data bus messages. At least one event-driven task of the simulation model is implemented on a first network node, and a nondeterministic triggering event is detected by a second network node. The second network node communicates the detected triggering event to the first network node and the first network node computes the event-driven task. A fast response time is achieved by the means that a detection signal is sent from the second network node in the form of a multicast data bus message or a broadcast data bus message to multiple network nodes of the simulation network or to all network nodes of the simulation network over the serial data bus.
Abstract:
A method for implementing an adaptive interface between at least one FPGA with at least one FPGA application and at least one I/O module, which are designed as the corresponding sender side or receiver side, for connection to the FPGA, whereby a serial interface is formed between the at least one FPGA and the at least one I/O module, comprising the steps of configuring a maximum number of registers to be transmitted for each FPGA application, configuring a shared, fixed register width for all registers, setting an enable signal on the sender side for the registers to be transmitted out of the maximum number of registers to be transmitted, transmitting the enable signal from the sender side to the receiver side, and transmitting the registers, for which the enable signal is set, from the sender side to the receiver side.
