## POWER Soft CPU on FPGA
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Have a proposal to build a soft CPU which is comparable VexRISCV
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Also looking at having a "POWER-formal" - https://github.com/SymbioticEDA/riscv-formal

|
|
|
|
|
* Microwatt doesn't fit!

* https://antmicro.com/blog/2020/05/multicore-vex-in-litex/
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* In collaboration with the creators of LiteX and SpinalHDL, we implemented a test design on Digilent’s Arty A7 board. Taking only 70% of a 35 KLUT FPGA - the Artix A35T - VexRiscv runs at 100 MHz and boots Linux in about 4 seconds.
