Embodiment Construction

[0027] In order to facilitate those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the present invention will be described in further detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. The following is only exemplary and does not limit the protection scope of the present invention.

[0028] Such as figure 1 As shown, a scalable reconfigurable multi-core processor connection method described in the present invention includes the following steps:

[0029] S1. Establish a reconfigurable on-chip resource array

[0030] For a chip with reconfigurable resources, let the chip be chip C, and each basic reconfigurable unit is called a programmable logic block (Programmable Logic Block, PLB), and all programmable logic blocks are arranged in rows and columns on the chip On C, it is assumed that there are (m+1) rows and (n+1) columns of programmable logic blocks on chip C. A wiring space is reserved between adjacent programmable logic b...

Abstract

The invention discloses an extensible reconfigurable multi-core processor connection method. The method comprises the steps that S1, a reconfigurable on-chip resource array is established; S2, a reconfigurable multi-core network-on-chip is established; S3, on-chip routers are configured at intersections of connecting lines of the network-on-chip; and S4, programmable logic blocks are connected tothe on-chip routers. The technical scheme has high efficiency and flexibility, the network-on-chip and the reconfigurable technology are combined, all the programmable logic blocks are connected through the on-chip routers, therefore, connection on a chip is realized not through a bus but through the network-on-chip, wiring width is reduced, the utilization area of the chip is enlarged, and the extensible on-chip connection method is provided.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an expandable and reconfigurable multi-core processor connection method, which belongs to the technical field of reconfigurability. Background technique [0002] Reconfigurable computing is regarded as an effective solution that can combine the high flexibility of traditional processors with the high processing efficiency of ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit). Due to the good adaptability of the reconfigurable architecture, the processing speed can be accelerated through different granularities of parallelism for different applications. Among reconfigurable devices, FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array) is the most widely used reconfigurable device. Dynamically rechargeable and configurable FPGA is an important basis for realizing hardware-level multitasking. [0003] The integration of multiple processing cores on a single chip has brought a new challenge, that is, how to connect a large number of on-chip devices....
