The Design And Implementation Of Remote Development Method Based On SOPC

With the development of the PLD technology, FPGA (field programmable gate array) has become one of the hottest fields in embedded system area. People begin to use different ways of FPGA configuration to enhance the flexibility of FPGA itself. However, there are still many tasks to be completed face to face.That means during the process of configuration, parallel, serial or USB interface will be needed to connect with PC.To solve these problems, people start to turn to the remote configuration based on Internet for help. Compared with the traditional way, remote configuration will not be limited to time and place when carring out configuring FPGA through Internet, which makes its application field wider.Nowadays, the researchs about remote configuration mainly aim at ISP way based on traditional microcontroller. The thesis plans to carry out FPGA remote configuration with soft-core instead of traditional one, which uses SOPC technology and improves the expansibility of remote system.First, this thesis introduces the basic knowledge and current development of configuration technology based on microcontroller and demonstrates the target and research work of remote configuration using SOPC technology after comparing to traditional configuration way. Second, two key technologies-SOPC and FPGA configuration, are introduced. After whole design of remote configuration architecture, the important model called "SOPC platform" is designed in details, based on which the thesis carries out the model. Eventually, based on the theory of JTAG module, a test way is designed and carried out to meet the configuration running correctly.The research of the thesis provides a method and referenced scheme for the application of SOPC in the internet field. And the result of the thesis plays an important role in further development of remot configuration.
