OpenRISC SoC for Sensor Applications
From iis-projects
Contents
Short Description
At the IIS we have started developing our own implementation of the OpenRISC core available from the Opencores community. A brand new optimized implementation of the OpenRisc was completed as part of a previous semester thesis. We are already using this core in our multi-core projects and we continue to make improvements.
We also have several projects that deal with acquiring data from sensors. We would like to expand our OpenRISC core with the following capabilities so that a standalone small system can be designed that can directly interface with various sensors and can communicate over low-power wireless channels.
- Wakeup radio
- SPI interface
- General Purpose IO
- I2C interface
Status: Available
- Looking for 1-2 Semester/Master students
- Contact: Michael Gautschi, Michele Magno
Prerequisites
