Abstract

Reconfigurable SoPC is an advanced component for distributed and real time applications. Co-design of HW and SW for SoPC are both in hierarchy and hybrid. For hierarchy, a SoPC application design may be concerned to C language, Assembly, Hardware Description Language HDL and PLD hardware. For hybrid, the SoPC hardware is built by HDL programming on PLD in some design level. That means the hardware is designed by software. In this paper, a method of co-design of SoPC with HW and SW is discussed. As an example, some display IP component design of a SoPC is issued. The result of simulation indicates that the design is available and successful. The co-design is useful and significant to improve performance of some computing systems.
