XAPP213: PicoBlaze 8-Bit Microcontroller for Virtex-E and Spartan-II/IIE Devices
The Constant (k) Coded Programmable State Machine (KCPSM) solution presented in this application note is a fully embedded 8-bit microcontroller macro for the Virtex, Virtex-E, Spartan-I, and Spartan-IIE devices. |
XAPP627 : PicoBlaze 8-Bit Microcontroller for Virtex-II Series Devices
The PicoBlaze module is a fully embedded 8-bit microcontroller macro for the Virtex-II series. Although it could be used for processing of data, the PicoBlaze macro is most likely to be employed in applications requiring a complex, but non-time-critical state machine. |
XAPP387 : PicoBlaze 8-Bit Microcontroller for CPLD Devices
This application note describes the implementation of an 8-bit microcontroller design using a CoolRunner-II CPLD. The PicoBlaze Microcontoller instructions can be customized to make an application-specific microcontroller. |
XAPP374 : CryptoBlaze: 8-Bit Security Microcontroller
This application note provides a basic outline for creating a cryptographic processor using CoolRunner-II devices and a CPLD version of the PicoBlaze processor. |
