Auto Verify Platform Design and Practice for FPGA Software

摘要:

目前,航天任务急剧增多,研制周期大大缩短,FPGA的应用呈阶梯式增长,提高FPGA软件的测试效率成为新的挑战;验证平台的搭建是进行FPGA测试的前提条件,而验证平台的好坏直接影响测试效率和质量;为了提高测试效率,设计搭建了基于Makefile脚本的自动化验证平台,可在该平台上进行FPGA软件静态测试和动态测试,覆盖了目前航天型号FPGA软件测试的全部类型,实验结果表明该平台的应用能够有效地缩短测试时间,并保证测试质量。

Abstract:

At present, the rapidly increase of space missions shorten the development cycle, as a resulf, the application of FPGA growth greatly, improving the test efficiency of the FPGA software become a brand new challenge. The precondition of FPGA test is to build the verification platform, which has a direct impact on the test efficiency and quality. This paper designs an automatic verification platform based on Makefile script, static and dynamic test of FPGA software can be done on this platform, it also support all test types of current aerospace FPGA software. The experimental results show that the platform should be used to shorten the test time and ensure the test quality.
