Risc5x is a small RISC CPU written in VHDL that is compatible with the 12 bit
32
opcode PIC family. Single cycle operation normally, two cycles when the program
33
counter is modified. Clock speeds of over 40Mhz are possible when using the
34
Xilinx Virtex optimisations.
35
 
36
 
37
This program ( hexconv.cpp ) may be used to read in a .HEX program file
38
and outputs directives to the Xilinx build tools to initialise the program
39
ram correctly.
40
 
41
Usage :
42
 
43
hexconv sourcefile.hex                  outputs to screen
44
 
45
hexconv sourcefile.hex > temp.ucf       outputs to file temp.ucf
46
 
47
this will generate 16 x 6 statements like this :
48
 
49
INST PRAMS_0_INST INIT_00 = 00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000E9A7B9E4;
50
 
51
copy these to your RISC5X_XIL.UCF file. Job done.
52
 
53
 
54
The program source has a commented out section which will produce "attribute
55
init" statements which may be used in the VHDL code directly. Replace the prams
56
generate in RISC5X_XIL.vhd with the following. The advantage of this technique
57
is you can see the correct init's in the EDIF file, and if you have a block ram
58
simulation model that you can pass INIT generics to, then you can simulate it.
59
 
60
prams : if true generate
61
 attribute INIT_00 of inst0 : label is "00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000E9A7B9E4";
62
 
63
begin
64
  inst0 : ramb4_s2_s2
65
  port map (
66
    dob   => pdata(1 downto 0),
67
    dib   => "00",
68
    
69
 
70
    doa   => pram_dout(1 downto 0),
71
    dia   => pram_din(1 downto 0),
72
    
73
    );
74

75
  port map (
76
    dob   => pdata(3 downto 2),
77
    
78
 
79
    doa   => pram_dout(3 downto 2),
80

81
    
82
