# Christmas tree controller (ASIC)

This project implements a Christmas tree controller that include four dedicated modules :
 - Infrared receiver (protocol NEC)
 - StepMotor controller (full-step, half-step, with strenght control)
 - Led string controller (compatibles WS2812B)
 - Pseudo-random generator (32bits)


### Architecture

This design is based on [Caravel user project](https://github.com/efabless/caravel_user_project.git) template.

Below is a representation of the architecture:

### Memory mapping

The Wishbone bus address mapping below :

| ADDRESS | DESCRIPTION |
| ------ | ------ |
| 0x30000000 | NEC IR receiver |
| 0x30010000 | PseudoRandom generator |
| 0x30020000 | Step motor controller |
| 0x30030000 | String Led controller |
