Resumen del proyecto:

The aim is to develop the first member of a family of Field Programmable System-On-a-Chip (FIPSOC) devices. These circuits will integrate combinational logic blocks, programmable analogue cells for signal conditioning and data acquisition, and an on-board microprocessor. Configuration and control data will be stored in on-chip RAM memory. The on-board 8051 based microprocessor will be able to access both the configuration and the actual signals within the logic cells, providing a strong interaction between hardware and software. Standard, off-the-shelf FIPSOC devices will be configurable to a wide variety of tasks including analogue and digital data acquisition and processing as typically required by the electronic instrumentation and industrial process control sectors. Users can develop their own applications by implementing (programming) both hardware and software functions in the same device. The chip will be ideally suited as an easy-to-use system prototyping workbench as well as in low to medium volume product applications.
