Abstract :
Nowadays Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) have become so affordable that they can be used to replace ASICs in some fields such as embedded systems in consumer electronic industry. In the paper, we design an embedded system with uClinux OS (operating system) based on FPGA. The way and experiences of the co-design of HW/SW are presented. The paper also gives an application of MPEG2-player on the embedded system and the comparison with other embedded system based ASICs.
