    For an FPGA design we all know that the architecture – all the way from the top to the micro architecture – is critical for both the FPGA quality and the development time. It should really be obvious that this also applies to the testbench. Most FPGA designs are split into stand-alone modules – for instance for each of the FPGA external interfaces. In VHDL these modules are VHDL entities...

    The FPGAs for space are growing in complexity and performance and the design time is shortening. There are several high-level synthesis approaches that aim to help FPGA designers increase their productivity. The objective of this work is to assess the MATLAB/Simulink high-level design flow, by using 2 applications from the specification to the deployment into different FPGA platforms. For...

    GMV is the prime contractor of QUEENS-FPGA project which stands for “QUality Evaluation of European New SW for brave FPGA”. The BRAVE project supported by ESA and CNES provided very promising European SRAM-based FPGAs for Space, a good roadmap that will allow Europe to avoid restrictions on access to non-European technologies and FPGAs. GMV will present the preliminary conclusions of NG-MEDIUM...

    “Quality Evaluation of European New SW for the BRAVE FPGA” (QUEENS-FPGA) is an ongoing ESA activity for the assessment and improvement of the programming tools of the new rad-hard NG-MEDIUM FPGA. Given BRAVE's primary target, i.e., high-performance applications, it becomes imperative to test the tool and device with computationally demanding benchmarks suitable for space missions, such as...

    Verification of a space project is a complex and time-consuming task due to requirements for high reliability and extensive documentation. Unexpected changes to design are likely to happen in scientific projects, often forcing the whole process to be repeated. Because of these reasons, automation is highly desirable in space FPGA development. The aim of the presentation is to show that...
