Efficient Reconfigurable On-Chip Buses for FPGAs
Dirk Koch, Christian D. Haubelt, Jürgen Teich · 2008
This paper presents techniques for generating on-chip buses suitable for dynamically integrating hardware modules into an FPGA-based SoC by partial reconfiguration. The buses permit direct connections of master and slave modules to the bus in combination with a flexible fine-grained module placement and with minimized latency and area overheads. A test system will demonstrate a transfer rate of 800 MB/s while providing an extreme high placement flexibility.
