Overview

The XPS HWICAP (Hardware ICAP) IP enables an embedded microprocessor, such as the MicroBlaze™ or PowerPC™ to read and write the FPGA configuration memory through the Internal Configuration Access Port (ICAP) at run time, which enables a user to write software programs for an embedded processor that modifies the circuit structure and functionality during the circuit’s operation.

Key features

  • PLB v4.6 based PLB interface
  • Partial bitstream loading is possible
  • Enables Read/Write of CLB LUTs
  • Enables Read/Write of CLB Flip-Flop properties
  • ICAP interface operates at clock rate of PLB
  • Support for MicroBlaze and PowerPC embedded processors

Creating the Xilinx Zynq-7000 Extensible Processing Platform

In March of 2011, Xilinx officially announced the first four devices of its new 28nm Zynq-7000 Extensible Processing Platform (EPP) family. Each of these devices merges an ARM dual-core Cortex-A9 MPCore processing system with a NEON media engine and a double-precision floating-point unit on the same IC, along with Level 1 and Level 2 caches, memory controllers, large programmable-logic blocks and a slew of commonly used peripherals.

Designing FPGA Based Reliable Systems Using Virtex-5 System Monitor

The fast track development and 24x7 operations have put tremendous pressure on the servers, networking systems and communication equipments. It has become necessary that these systems should operate reliably irrespective of the change in external operating environment like the temperature, humidity, and power fluctuations or, on chip conditions like on-chip temperature, internal voltage levels etc. Measuring the reliability of these physical systems is must for every operational unit.
