DESIGN AND CODE OPTIMIZATION WHEN WORKING WITH TIME-CRITICAL DATA

Abstract

FPGA modeling techniques for DUT's are currently the state-of-the-art in the testing and verification industry for ASIC designs and with a growing interest in smart house solutions, a quick time to market is a benefit for any company. The system presented in this paper consists of an FPGA-based multifunctional digital clock with a temperature sensor connected to a Microblaze CPU and a control and monitoring unit consisting of a software running on a Raspberry PI 3B with an enhanced version of Linux with PreemptRT patch. The paper presents the design and testing of the system and also an analysis of the optimizations considered for the proposed system.
