SiFive Core Complex IP Arty boards specific files

This project provides support for the SiFive synthesised E31/E51 devices running on the Arty development board.

Developer info

This section is intended to developers who plan to include this library in their own projects.

Prerequisites

A recent xpm, which is a portable Node.js command line application.

Compiling the source code requires a modern C++ compiler, preferably GCC 5 or higher.

Easy install

This package is available as @sifive/arty-boards from the npmjs.com registry; with xpm available, installing the latest version of the package is quite easy:

$ xpm install @sifive/arty-boards@latest

This package is also available from GitHub:

$ git clone https://github.com/micro-os-plus/sifive-arty-boards-xpack.git sifive-arty-boards-xpack.git

How to use

The standard way to include the board files is

#include <micro-os-plus/board.h>

Macros

• SIFIVE_E31ARTY_BOARD
• SIFIVE_E51ARTY_BOARD

E31/E51 Core Complex FPGA Eval Kit Clock and Reset

The E31/E51 Core Complex FPGA Eval Kit has a 100MHz input to the FPGA. This is used to derive the Core Complex’s io_coreClock at 65 MHz, and the clock (peripheral clock) at 32.5 MHz. The io_rtcToggle is driven at approximately 32kHz.

The system reset driven by the Reset Button on the evaluation board is combined with the external debugger’s SRST_n pin as a full system reset for the E31/E51 Core Complex FPGA Eval KitT ̇his is combined with the io_ndreset to drive the reset input to the Core Complex.

The reset vector is set with Switch 0. Leave the switch in the “Off” position to execute from SPI Flash.
