Block diagram of Experiar SoC

Features

  • Dual RV32I cores
  • Per core SRAM
  • JTAG interface
  • External flash controller
  • Shared video SRAM
  • Configurable VGA output
  • 3x UART ports + 1 internal to caravel
  • 1x SPI ports
  • 4x PWM counters with 4x separate outputs (2 are internal read only)

Need to do

  • Write SPI test
  • Write PWM test
  • Write core arch test
  • Fix timing violations
  • Make final version of art
  • Disable routing on met5

Could do

  • Look into simulation with CVC
  • Write macro level simulations to get more coverage due to shorter simulations
  • Add JTAG test
  • Add uart pin swapping
  • Flash controller
  • Interrupts
  • Tile map rendering
  • Fetch next instruction a clock cycle earlier so instructions only take 2 cycles
  • Allow JTAG to read from wishbone bus

Reference work and inspiration

  • Zero to ASIC Course: Complete course on ASIC design. Also has useful references and terminology definitions.
  • Openlane Documentation: Reference for a lot of configuration. The Variables and Hardening Macros pages have been particularity useful.
  • Caravel Documentation: Reference for caravel and configuration. This seems slightly out of date, but an alternate version can be found in the github repository.
  • Riscduino: Used for inspiration and as a reference for using openlane. There are a number of similar aspects to this project, but all have been reimplemented rather than copied.
