LPC2106 and FPGA - leon_heller - Apr 5 8:36:00 2004

Some time ago I mentioned that I was thinking of producing a PCB with
an LPC2106 and FPGA on it. I was intending to use a Xilinx Spartan-3,
but they are very difficult to get hold of, so I've decided to use
the much easier to find Altera Cyclone EP1C3T100. I've ordered a few
and will get them tomorrow.

The Cyclone chip shall be configured via the LPC2106, which will have
a flash device for the configuration data interfaced to it. Most of
the LPC2106 I/Os will be connected to the FPGA, with the other FPGA
pins connected to headers for a daughter board. A socket for a DIL
clock module will be provided with the clock output connected to a
PLL input on the FPGA. The PCB will have four layers.

If anyone is interested in this project and would like to discuss it,
please get in touch.

RE: LPC2106 and FPGA - Benjamin PRADAYROL - Apr 6 1:36:00 2004

I would be interested by the algorithm or the source code for initializing
the FPGA, because I'm working too on project in which we have a LPC2106 and
a Cyclone chip.
Do think it's possible to do it with SPI port ?

It might be but I was intending to bit-bang the configuration. I did this a
few years ago to configure an earlier Altera device with an ADI DSP. As I
recall, I had some problems getting the code to work properly but it wasn't
really all that difficult. I don't have that code any more, unfortunately.
My previous employer should still have it, and I might be able to get it
from one of my friends there. They've now dispensed with the FPGA, it was
primarily to get over a bug in their earlier ASIC.

One drawback to this is the size of sprom the ( and the size of the
FPGA ) FPGA needs for configuration. If its a larger FPGA and you are
going to emulate the load and include it in your firmware in the cpu,
it may take a big bite out of your code space even if compressed. I'd
lay pads for an sprom as an option too. Loading a Xilinx is well
documented in their appnotes. -Lee --- In , "Benjamin PRADAYROL"

I intend to use a serial flash memory for the configuration code.
