Repository files navigation

FPGA Cores is a repository of common RTL code mainly targeting FPGAs.

Code is divided in synthesizable, simulation helpers and testbenches.

• FIFOs
  • async_fifo.vhd: dual clock FIFO
  • axi_stream_fifo.vhd: single clock AXI stream FIFO
  • sync_fifo.vhd: single clock FIFO
• AXI Stream infrastructure
  • AXI Stream delay: insert FF delays on an AXI stream data path
  • AXI Stream master adapter: allows arbitrary number of cycles between a fullsignal (aka tready) and the write enable (aka tvalid). The idea is to isolateAXI's back pressure from the processing pipeline, making it easier to stop.
  • AXI stream width converter: width converter that supports non multiple ratiosand non power of 2 data widths
  • AXI stream skid buffer (VHDL version of ZipCPU's original)
• Basic stuff (no explanation needed)
  • Edge detector
  • Pulse synchronizer
  • Shift register delay
  • Synchronizer
• Memories
  • RAM inference (single and dual port)
  • ROM inference
  • Pipeline context RAM: wraps a RAM inference with a small cache thateliminates data hazards, allowing reads before data makes in and out of theactual memory element
• Misc
  • Exponential Golomb encoder

• AXI file reader: reads a binary file into an AXI stream interface.Configuration interface allows reading different files and controlling theprobability of tvalid being asserted.
• AXI file compare: uses AXI file reader to generate the expected data andcompares with data input on the AXI stream slave interface
• AXI stream bus functional model: makes it easy to write data to an AXI streammaster via procedures
• Linked list: implements a generic type double linked list
