主题:取代ASIC 设计好选择:使用新型低成本FPGA进行系统集成
在线问答:
[问:kensom] FPGA 的速度能否比得上ASIC,另外请指教哪几款FPGA的性价比最高? 
[答:Susan] It depends on the design.  Some of design that FPGA can perform well but some of them probably ASIC performs better.   Stratix is our high performace family.  But it still depends on your design.  Please contact our distributors for further discussion.  [2004-11-11 10:32:38]
[问:liuliuyyf] 1。cyclone II 的平均价位在什么水平,例如EP2C5要多少钱。 2。NIOS 内嵌处理器都包含那些处理功能,可以和一般单片机比较吗? 
[答:Susan] Please will ask our distributors to provide the pricing information to you.     [2004-11-11 10:34:03]
[问:wangzhuyinghn] 我在用altera公司的提供的Maxplus和Quartus软件开发产品时,用的是Verilog HDL,但该两种软件对于Verilog中的很多语句的编译不支持,特别是有关延时方面的,请问贵公司对此有何特殊的解决办法。 
[答:Stone] 目前,Maxplus和Quartus软件对Verilog 编译支持很好.有关延时方面的语句只能用于仿真,不可综合  [2004-11-11 10:35:29]
[问:dongxiongjie] 常用FPGA设计的软件有那些?各自有和优点? 怎样选用元器件?选用元器件有何规则? 在嵌入系统和DSP系统中该如何叫好的应用FPGA进行设计  
[答:Jerry] Altera QII, MP2可以帮助客户完成从输入,编译综合,布局布线,仿真,下载全套设计流程。也可以跟常见第三方EDA工具交互使用。如:synplify, modelsim 等。  [2004-11-11 10:39:10]
[问:asaa] 你好:我想用FPGA坐一个图形控制器(2048X2048)或 (1600X1200),用哪种芯片性价比较好一些呢,Cyclone ?CycloneII? Stratix ?相同规模的情况下,哪种芯片较经济一些, 
[答:Robin] For your application,I think cyclone II is good choice.Other side,if you need more hipe formance image process,you can take a consider of StratixII.  [2004-11-11 10:41:24]
[问:limberm] 使用fpga中常遇到的是寄存器不足的问题,请问如何最大限度的节约寄存器资源,或者最大限度的使用寄存器?谢谢! 
[答:Edgar] If you"re referring to register (寄存器), it is rarely the case that FPGA do not have enough registers because each Logic Element (LE) has at least one register for implementing RTL (register-transfer-level) design.  If register is really not enough for your design, usually, that"s mean you"ll have to choose a higher desity device.  However, if you"re referring to RAM (存储器), then, it is true that sometimes it is not enough, and usually what you can do is to use double-clocking multiplex techniques (时分复用)to share a single pieces of RAM.  For example, Altera Quartus"s software provide the FIFO sharing function in the Megawizard, where customer can use this function to use one piece of RAM to implement several pieces of FIFO.  [2004-11-11 10:42:53]
[问:guanghui] 请问Cyclone II的DSP板和SOPC板什么时候能够买到? 
[答:Jerry] 根据altera schedule, CycloneII 的器件基本上在05年Q2前所有型号都可以出来,相应的DEMO板,也应该在05年Q2前都有。详细下单情况可以咨询www.cytech.com 或各地办事处。  [2004-11-11 10:44:12]
[问:gaozg] 您好!我现在使用的是altera公司stratix系列的nios开发板,我的问题是nios处理器响应中断的时间是不是比较长,时钟频率50MHz时,需要多长时间才能响应一个中断?谢谢! 
[答:Jerry] 是这样的。nios2减少了中断数量,可能要好些。  [2004-11-11 10:45:18]
[问:xly6] 我用EPM3128,我在(分配引脚前)编译的时候看到只使用了102个宏单元,但分配引脚后编译就不能通过。请问:在实际用CPLD设计时,使用总容量的百分之多少合适? 
[答:Stone] 一般来说,两个80%.逻辑80%,I/O 80%b比较好. 不过,你的问题不是逻辑使用过多,而是I/O分配不太合理. MAXII CPLD具备比传统CPLD更好的布通率.  [2004-11-11 10:50:20]
[问:jean_hz] 请问如果用NIOS核的话,需要哪家操作系统以及开发环境的支持?

[答:Jerry] altera 的时序仿真结果跟实际非常接近。  [2004-11-11 10:57:56]
[问:pepperworm] cyclone 2需要专用的语言开发吗?  
[答:Edgar] VHDL, or Verilog Hardware Description Language. Or you can use Schematic in Quartus II (our 开发工具) Or you can use our 开发 software DSP Builder, SOPC Builder.  [2004-11-11 10:58:53]
[问:liuyonghe] 介绍一下STRATIX和CYCLONE的区别? 
[答:Susan] Startix is our high performace FPGA family.  It has greater density range and more features like build in DSP block etc.  Cyclone is low cost FPGA  which adress mid range of density.  It is cost effective solution.  For detail spec comparison, please go to www.altera.com or send a request information to sopcworldasia@altera.com.  Thanks.  [2004-11-11 10:58:54]
[问:ssufn] 是不是所有FPGA的管脚都有一对MOS管? 
[答:Robin] In Cyclone II,here are three dedicated registers per I/O element (IOE): one input register, one output register, and one output-enable register.  [2004-11-11 11:00:17]
[问:jxyangjp] 用CYCLONE集成的32BIT处理器和ARM系列有何优势和缺点,能跑多快 
[答:Jerry] NIOS2 的fast core 在cycloneII中可以达到150DMIPS。 NIOS2 软核的优势是灵活,低成本。缺点是现在大陆地区还需要培养用户掌握这个开发开发流程。  [2004-11-11 11:01:20]
[问:kennypan] does  Cyclone II support migration to HardCopy? structured ASICs?  
[答:Susan] Currently we do not have solution for migration of Cyclone II to Hardcopy.  The reason is the pricing of Cyclone II is very competitive and most of products can use it for prodcution.  We only support Stratix families to migrate to HardCopy now.  [2004-11-11 11:01:30]
[问:DirectCG] 一般来说,同样集成度的ASIC和FPGA,在成品率和生产成本上有何差别? 
[答:Horace] Although the average selling price of FPGA devices is typically higher than that of ASICs ( around 30% ), when comparing the two solutions, carefully consider the total cost of ownership: 1. NRE Costs: ASIC costs will be much higher than when using FPGA devices. 2. Engineering Resources: Implementing a design in an ASIC requires significant customer engineering talent and resources, adding additional NRE costs. 3. Opportunity Cost: Because of the long lead times associated with ASIC development, using FPGA devices may represent a significant advantage over ASICs, allowing the customer to get to market much more quickly. 4. Lower Risk: FPGA devices offer lower risk than an ASIC implementation, as the designs used for FPGA are already proven in the target system.  [2004-11-11 11:03:39]
[问:riple] 请问工程师,cyclone 内部的pll怎样使用,使用中有什么注意事项 
[答:Robin] You can use megawizard to use PLL in cyclone.and in this PLL megawizard,you can set PLL parameter to implete your clock multiplication and division, phase shifting, programmable duty cycle, and external clock outputs, allowing system-level clock management and skew control  [2004-11-11 11:03:44]
[问:gaomin] 请告诉我用fpga设计时序电路的最好方法,怎样最大限度的避免毛刺的产生和怎样最大限度的减少延时。 
[答:Jing] 其实如果采用同步设计的话,就可避免毛刺。当然这实在时序满足的情况下而言。要满足时序,基本要考虑两方面:1。逻辑级数;2。时钟域切换处利;3。逻辑优化。4。布局布线。关于第一二点,有很多要注意的地方,例如状态机风格,If/Else或Case语句的处理,FIFO设计,算法等等。在这里不能一一详举,可参照市面有关设计风格的参考书。这里另附上一个不错的网站以供参考:http://www.sunburst-design.com/papers/ 至于后两点,是需要熟悉对逻辑分析和布局布线工具的使用。这可以和我们的技术支持联系。www.mysupport.altera.com  [2004-11-11 11:04:12]
[问:DirectCG] 在FPGA中如何实现MCU?如何操作MCU内核? 
[答:Jerry] 如果你是把一个8051的ip放进PGA中,这个不是我们说的nios. 关于NIOS or 升级的NIOS2 有一整套开发的流程。详细了解www.altera.com/nios 页面或各地代理。  [2004-11-11 11:04:23]
[问:jean_hz] 你好,我以前用过arm9和PowerPC的处理器,但是对NIOS还不了解,我想了解一下大概的情况,比如说它支持什么样的操作系统? 支持LINUX吗? 有比较成熟的开发环境吗? 谢谢!! 
[答:Edgar] Yes.  NIOS II is a 32-bit RISC process base on Harvard Architecture (with separate data and instruction cache).  Designed for use in our FPGA, you can choose any type of peripherals you wanted to achieve your customized CPU, whose flexibilities are unmatched by pre-build CPU like arm or PPC.  We provide 成熟的 The Nios II IDE based on the open, extensible Eclipse IDE project and the Eclipse C/C++ Development Tools (CDT) Project. www.eclipse.org.  And support uCLINUX (www.uclinux.org)   [2004-11-11 11:05:27]
[问:ciber] FPGA在数字信号处理方面的能力不算强,而我们所使用的很多ASIC都是DSP+MCU形式的,这样的ASIC能够完全被FPGA所取代吗? 
[答:Susan] It depends on your design.  Not all DSP+MCU can replace by FPGA, but some of them can.  Cyclone II has build in multiplexers that can support DSP function.  Also MCU can replace by NIOS II. For further discussion for your specific design, please contact our distributors and send an email to sopcworldasia@altera.com  [2004-11-11 11:06:07]
[问:chunsen] 在设计和验证上,FPGA和ASIC有何优缺点?

[问:Nigeria2004] Cyclone II主要适合应用于那些领域 
[答:Susan] Cyclone II is very suitable for Digital Consumer designs because of it competitive pricing.  Also it is good for Communication, Industrial, Computer & Storage designs.  [2004-11-11 11:09:36]
[问:riello] 能否详细介绍Cyclone II的开发软件和开发环境? 
[答:Jerry] 如果用过altera QuartusII, CycloneII的开发流程和环境因该没有问题。只不过cycloneII的支持需要QII5.0以上的版本。  [2004-11-11 11:10:53]
[问:zero] 我用DSP BUILDER设计了一个FFT器件,能把它直接通过用户逻辑放到NIOS 处理器结构中吗,如能怎么做 
[答:Robin] NIOS is soft cpu implement in Altera FPGA.You use the NIOS CPU to do FFT, and at same time you also use FPGA logic to implement FFT get more high performance.  [2004-11-11 11:11:45]
[问:ar_zhe] 我在使用quartusII的过程中,在user logic 方面遇到了问题。怎样将自己设计的模块挂接在Avelon总线上,我查看资料,有一个寄存器的文件register.v我始终不知如何去写,不知能否告知到何处去找这方面的详细点的资料或例子?谢谢 
[答:Stone] 可以参考NIOS开发资料.有具体问题可以先与骏龙公司联系,他们可以提供详细点的资料或例子  [2004-11-11 11:13:01]
[问:xly6] NOIS II中有普通的8051内亥吗? 
[答:Robin] You can implement 8051 core into Cyclone II. NIOS II is altera latest 32 bit RISC soft cpu.  [2004-11-11 11:15:22]
[问:shicong] 我想问一下,fpga对dsp处理支持的情况,它速度和处理能力是否能与专用DSP芯片相比较,在设计DSP方面有什么优势? 
[答:Horace] Altera Stratix II devices are the industry fastest FPGAs!  With support for internal clock frequency rates of up to 500 MHz and typical design performance at over 250 MHz, Stratix II devices provide designers ASICike performance with the time-saving advantages of a programmable solution. This must faster than specific DSP.  [2004-11-11 11:16:18]
[问:lty] nios2是以什么形式提供给用户的?是否提供源代码,是否允许用户自己修改? 
[答:Stone] nios2是以IP形式提供给用户的,不提供源代码,用户自己可以配置CPU及外设.  [2004-11-11 11:16:20]
[问:boyfly] 请问altera的软件是否支持增量设计这个功能? 
[答:Stone] 支持  [2004-11-11 11:17:51]
[问:anidea] 您好,我有一个关于Quartus的问题,在我使用该软件综合设计的过程中发现,对于状态机的处理,将无用的状态有化掉了,比如对于一个vhdl语言描述的双进程状态机,其case 语句中的others 部分被优化掉了,这样如何保证状态机在出错状态下的恢复? 
[答:Jing] 这问题没有具体代码,很难在这里回答。但如果想您所说是无用的状态,而被优化掉则是正常的。可能要检查一下代码,是否忽略了一些条件。如果是涉及恢复状态的逻辑,这是不应被优化掉的。不过“others"语句的确是专家不建议用的语句。建议不要用“others"来屏蔽过多的译码比特,而应该在设计时用刚好的译码比特,而把不能所见的多余状态逐一列名他们的输出和下一状态。 另外可考虑用“one-hot"的译码方法,和"full case","parallel case" 等方法。这一网站有不错的建议,可供参考:http://www.sunburst-design.com/papers/  [2004-11-11 11:18:22]
[问:chunsen] 采用FPGA设计个性化系统是否意味要回到ASIC的路子上去?它和ASIC有和区别? 
[答:Edgar] FPGA vs ASIC: (FPGA has the following main advantage) -- faster time-to-market (becuase FPGA can be reprogrammed in minutes, ASIC has long design cycle) -- Lower risk (because FPGA can be verified in system immediately, while ASIC cannot be verified in system until 3-6 months away from design finish). Altera is also an ASIC prvoider and we provide a FPGA-->ASIC flow named "HardCopy" flow.  Our HardCopy is Strcuture ASIC device preserves FPGA architecture and FPGA-proven functionality.  Hence it combine the benefit of both FPGA (flexible, low cost, low risk) and ASIC (lower cost), and HardCopy has the added benefit of faster turn-around-time than traditional ASIC because it preserves FPGA architecture and take less time to manufacture. For more information about HardCopy, please refer to http://www.altera.com/products /devices/hardcopy/hrd-index.html [2004-11-11 11:20:52]
[问:riello] 软处理器Nios II目前的速度能动达到多少?性能达到什么样的水平? 
[答:Edgar] Nios II can achieve performance over 200 DMIPs.  Feel free to refer to http://www.altera.com/products/ip /processors/nios2/ni2-index.html   [2004-11-11 11:22:38]
[问:youbaoshan] nios 2 如何配置引导程序? 
[答:Jerry] NIOS2 中一个重要的区别是去掉了bootrom 程序,这一点不同于Nios了。详细可以download 或向各地office索取有关nios2 training的文档中有详细介绍。  [2004-11-11 11:23:35]
[问:zzkeng] 如何对FPGA的配置文件加密? 
[答:Jing] 目前,我们的Stratix-II器件支持配置文件加密。基本上是由QuartusII来加密,并由Altera提供特有密钥的Stratix-II芯片来配合使用。每一客户的密钥都不同,所以就算别人偷取了贵公司的加密配置文件,也不能再同型号的芯片上使用。  [2004-11-11 11:26:16]
[问:陈炜] EPM7128S系列I/O驱动能力有多少mA 
[答:Jerry] LVTTL,LVCOM 的驱动能力不一样,7128S也是一款很早的cpld. 其IO驱动不可以调整。一般在12mA左右.建议你在数据手册的上查找driver ability. cyclone或新的MAX II CPLD 其驱动都可以调整。不同的电平标准从2mA ,4mA, 8mA 12mA 20mA 等。  [2004-11-11 11:29:03]
[问:theprimegod] 请问fpga的功耗一般有多大?对于便携式系统是否适用? 
[答:Stone] fpga的功耗一般比ASIC大,主要取决于你设计的资源使用情况,时钟工作频率,I/O使用等因素.  [2004-11-11 11:29:09]
[问:zzkeng] 在速度和保密性能上,低成本FPGA是否完全胜过ASIC,到了能完全取代ASIC的地步? 
[答:Susan] For speed and security features, low Cost FPGA can replace most of ASIC designs but not all of them.  It depends on your designs.  For furture discussion on your specific design, please contact our distributors or send an email to sopcworldasia@altera.com  [2004-11-11 11:30:28]
[问:josephfu] 如果我在开发中需要您们的技术帮助,请问我可以联系的方式?我在深圳。  
[答:Jing] Please email inquiry@cytech.com, 或是将问题发到www.mysupport.altera.com.  [2004-11-11 11:31:56]
[问:maszcy] 用Cyclon实现1024点浮点FFT需化费多少时间? 
[答:Jerry] 1k 点浮点FFT可以download FFT IP userguider 查询。cycloneII中有专用硬DSP 乘加器。cyclone 没有,所以情况不一样。   [2004-11-11 11:33:51]
[问:DirectCG] 在设计的灵活性和功耗上,ASIC和FPGA有何差异? 
[答:Edgar] FPGA has the following benefit compare to traditional ASIC: 1.  Faster time-to-market (FPGA can be reprogrammed and verified in system minutes after design finsh, while traditional ASIC has longer designer cycle) 2.  Flexibility--FPGA is reprogrammable.  ASIC cannot. 3.  Lower risk--FPGA can be verified in system right after design finish.  ASIC cannot as you have to wait until the silicon come back after a long manufacturing period (3-6 months). Altera is a also an ASIC vendor.  Altera provide FPGA --> ASIC flow named the "HardCopy" flow.  Our HardCopy devices preserves FPGA architecture and FPGA-proven functionality, and take less time to manufacture than traditional ASIC.  Hence, "HardCopy" combine benefits of both world (low risk verification in FPGA, and achieve lower cost later by doing the "HardCopy" flow).  For more info, please refer to http://www.altera.com/products/devices /hardcopy/hrd-index.html   [2004-11-11 11:34:42]
[问:zzkeng] FPGA中的时钟分布和性能是否能满足ASIC的要求? 
[答:Jing] 只要时序报告显示速度满足,就没有问题。FPGA的全局时钟是可以满足零skew,和高扇出的要求的。  [2004-11-11 11:35:45]
[问:zzkeng] 采用低成本FPGA替代ASIC,在成本上有何优势?能举例说明或用数字说明码? 
[答:Horace] When comparing ASIC and FPGA, carefully consider the total cost of ownership: 1. NRE Costs: ASIC costs will be much higher than when using FPGA devices. 2. Engineering Resources: Implementing a design in an ASIC requires significant customer engineering talent and resources, adding additional NRE costs. 3. Opportunity Cost: Because of the long lead times associated with ASIC development, using FPGA devices may represent a significant advantage over ASICs, allowing the customer to get to market much more quickly. 4. Lower Risk: FPGA devices offer lower risk than an ASIC implementation, as the designs used for FPGA are already proven in the target system.  [2004-11-11 11:38:18]
[问:riello] 能否举例说明Cyclone如EP2C70的价格?和其它公司同类产品相比有和优势? 
[答:Susan] Compare with the same products in the market, Cyclone II has advantages at: X1.5 performace 30-50% lower cost per LE larger density (up to 68416 LE). For more detail pricing information, please contact our distributors or send your request to sopcworldasia@altera.com  [2004-11-11 11:38:59]
[问:DirectCG] 在处理功能和逻辑功能上,FPGA和ASIC有何差别? 
[答:Edgar] 在处理功能和逻辑功能上,FPGA和ASIC 基本没差别  [2004-11-11 11:39:29]
[问:beachover] nios2和nios的区别是什么 
[答:Robin] NIOS 2 is latest 32-bit soft cpu  implement in Altera FPGA. Use NIOS II,you can get more high cpu formance with less resource compare with NIOS. NIOS is 16 bit ISA RISC CPU and NIOS II is a 32 bit RSIC CPU; You also use IDE to design your CPU software. For detail difference between them,how about contact with FAE get help.  [2004-11-11 11:44:30]
[主持人:ChinaECNet] 所有问题均已提交给Altera公司的专家。座谈期间未回答的问题,Altera公司专家也会逐一回答,并在中电网上公布,请大家注意收看。  [2004-11-11 11:47:27]
[问:chunsen] 请详细介绍ASSP的概念.为什么它的客户设计成本是很低的,面市时间是很快的?如果是这样,FPGA如何和它进行竞争? 
[答:Horace] ASSP is targeted on some specific application. It mean there is no design ability needed, and all the feature is standarded ( un-changable ) However, FPGA can provide : 1.Ability to add/remove features in hardware; 2.Ability to change functions in hardware; 3.Ability to integrate several functions in a single chip (and reduce board congestion) For the price, ASSP due to no design effort need to make, and all your competitor is able to do the same what you are doing, it make your profit margin lower. However, you can use FPGA to do a specific feature product as you want. Your profit margin is also higher.  [2004-11-11 11:48:03]
[问:boyfly] 我想请教一下时序限制的方法。我用altera的芯片做设计,在板子上调测时,功能正常,稍作无关改动(如引一测试管脚)功能就不正常了,我认为是时序做的不好,你有什么好的时序限制的经验教我,谢谢你 
[答:Jerry] 这种情况一般都是客户有关键时序处在临界。我建议你详细阅读QII handbook 关于timing assignment 部分。通常我们会在assign/timing seting/ indiviul... 定义所有关键path. 然后到assignment editor /timing 中去根据不同的feature 选择关联上不同的constrain.  [2004-11-11 11:49:45]
[问:chunsen] 在FPGA设计中怎样可以使得芯片资源利用率提高?它的利用率最高可达到多高? 
[答:Jing] 这基本上可又设计软件实现。在QuartisII的Assignment Editor中的Optimization Technique logic option,选Area. 另外,Auto Packed Registers 选项可选为ON. 现在的利用率可达95%或更高。但要小心,设计太满会令编译时间非线性增加,并使后期调试工作非常困难,帮助调试的内嵌式逻辑分析仪也因此放不到器件内。  [2004-11-11 11:50:48]
[问:jinib] FPGA的发展趋势?VHDL与VERILOG哪种编译效率更高,更通用,谁是主流?它们编译使用软件有关吗?对FPGA的设计,使用何种输入方法效率更高,更稳定,可靠? 
[答:Jerry] 现在verilog 的人多些。altera 或第三方的EDA普遍都支持这两种。软件都很丰富。  [2004-11-11 11:51:34]
[问:gaozg] 刚才我问了一个关于中断的问题,如果想利用nios处理器来处理中断,而且希望有较快的响应时间,我该如何做? 
[答:Jerry] contact: jerrypan@cytech.com  [2004-11-11 11:52:32]
[问:xly6] 请问哪儿有ALTERA元件的PROTEL的原理图库和PCB封装库下载? 
[答:Jing] 我们只有OrCAD的symbol. 不过PROTEL是有转圜工具的。 http://www.altera.com/support/software/ download/pcb/pcb-pcb_index.html  [2004-11-11 12:01:19]
[问:jinib] 使用FPGA/CPLD的好处和主要优点体现? 
[答:Susan] FPGA is gate arry like architecture, SRAM base, rich registors and address mid to high density range designs. CPLD is PAL like architecure, EEPRROM base, suitabe for more logic design and address in low to mid range designs.  It depends on your design to decide whether use FPGA or CPLD.  If your design is more complicated and need more registors, then FPGA is the choice.  If you just like to do the simple logic design, like decoder, the CPLD is your choice.  For more detial discussion, please contact out distributors or send an email to sopcworldasia@altera.com  [2004-11-11 12:01:38]
[问:gaofang1976] 1)这些新型低成本和通常FPGA相比有什么不同? 2)在SOC越来越成为潮流的今天,虽然是些中低规模,但是还是涉及许多HARD MACRO在里面,怎样通过这些低成本的FPGA来达到验证的目的? 
[答:Edgar] For 1) With advance technologies such as 90nm, advance chip architecturing ,新型低成本的Cyclone II will provide the lowest cost FPGA in the market, and faster performance than older-generation FPGA.
