FPGA Processor Types

Top  Previous  Next

Previous versions of Diamond used the processor types FPGA and FPGA16 when declaring a processor that was to be used with attached DSPs. These processor types are no longer supported.

 

Instead, you now declare FPGA processors using proctypes that correspond to the types of the DSPs that can be attached to them. By convention, the processor type name you use is the same as that for the DSPs but with the suffix '_FPGA'.

 

For example:

 

PROCESSOR F1  SMT361_FPGA

PROCESSOR D1  SMT361       ATTACH=F1

 

PROCESSOR F2  SMT362_FPGA

PROCESSOR D2  SMT362       ATTACH=F2

 

Attaching processors is discussed in ATTACH attribute.
