Description
The System ACE鈩?Multi-Package Module (MPM) solution
addresses the need for a space-efficient, pre-engineered,
high-density configuration solution in multiple FPGA sys-
tems. The System ACE technology is a ground-breaking
in-system programmable configuration solution that pro-
vides substantial savings in development effort and cost per
bit over traditional PROM and embedded solutions for high
capacity FPGA systems. As shown in
Figure 1,
the System
ACE MPM solution is a multi-package module that includes
the System ACE MPM controller, a configuration PROM,
and an AMD Flash Memory.
The System ACE MPM has four major interfaces. (See
Figure 2.)
The boundary scan JTAG interface is provided for
boundary scan test and boundary-scan-based Flash mem-
ory programming. The system control interface provides an
input for the system clock, design set selection pins, system
configuration control signals, and system configuration sta-
tus signals.
The native Flash memory interface provides direct read and
write access to the Flash memory unit. The target FPGA
interface provides the signals to configure target FPGAs via
the Slave-Serial, concurrent Slave-Serial, or SelectMAP
configuration modes.
Separate power pins provide voltage compatibility control
for the target FPGA configuration interface and for the sys-
tem control/status interface.
See
Figure 3
for a complete view of the components and
schematic of the signals in the System ACE MPM.
