Problems solved by technology

However, for digital circuits, in order to prevent the impact of static electricity on the FPGA when plugging and unplugging the downloader, it is necessary to power off the board before switching operations, and the download port of the emulator is easily damaged by repeated plugging and unplugging, which is very inconvenient in use

Abstract

The invention provides a FPGA emulator switching device and method. The FPGA emulator switching device comprises a shell, an intermediate switching module, a switching button and more than two output port connected indicator lamps; wherein the shell is provided with input ports and more than two output ports; the switching button controls the intermediate switching module to select the corresponding relationship between the input ports and the output ports; and the output port connected indicator lamps correspond to the output ports one by one. When the number of the input port is one, the switching button controls the intermediate switching module to select the output port corresponding to the input port; when the number of the input ports is n, then the number of the output ports is n, and the n is greater than or equal to 2; the indicator lamps connect the input ports and correspond to the input ports one by one; and the switch button controls the intermediate switching module to select the connection relationship between a single input port and a single output port, the one by one connection relationship between the actually used m input ports and m output ports, and the connection relationship that is not connected. By means of the FPGA emulator switching device, the number of insertion and extraction times of the FPGA card interface and the number of insertion and extraction times of the emulator are reduced, and the probability of easy damage caused by the multiple times of insertion and extraction of the emulator downloader is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of communication emulation switching devices, in particular to an FPGA emulator switching device and method. Background technique [0002] With the gradual development of digital circuits, FPGA has been used more and more due to its powerful online programming capability. In the use of FPGA, code download and online debugging are usually completed by connecting the emulator through the USB interface of a general-purpose computer. However, one USB port of a computer can only be connected to one emulator corresponding to the download port of one FPGA, so for boards with multiple FPGAs, the following two methods are usually used to realize the code download and online debugging functions: 1. Multiple emulators perform code download and online debugging for each FPGA; 2. One emulator is used multiple times, and the code download and online debugging for multiple FPGAs can be realized by plugging and unplugging back and f...
