Experiment 5 Lab 9 Outline • Presentation • Digital Design Conventions • Using Digital Product Development • A brief description of Ppm Block 4 and Block 5 • Individual work • Developing non-core circuits of Ppm Block 5 • Using Experiment 5 Design Checks • New handout • Experiment 5 Design Checks CS 2204 Spring 2007
Presentation • Digital Design Conventions • Digital Circuit PrintingConventions • The printout must be readable • Labels, component names, symbols, etc. • If the circuit is large, it must be printed on severalpages • The sheets must be attached to each other • Lines, labels, etc. must be continuous from one sheet to the next CS 2204 Spring 2007
Digital Design Conventions • Digital Circuit PrintingConventions • CS2204 Related • Part 1 of Experiment 5 Design Checks • The team info on the lower right corner is ►Line 1 : the name of the student who designed the schematic + a partner’s name ►Line 2 : partner(s)’ name(s) ►Line 3 : CS2204, Section name, Spring 2007 CS 2204 Spring 2007
Digital Design Conventions • Digital Circuit DrawingConventions • Part 2 of Experiment 5 Design Checks • Remember to beautify the circuit before submitting it • Placecomponents of a (sub)blocknext to each other and separate (sub)blocks from each other • Only horizontal and verticalwires drawn • No unnecessary wire turns • No Unnecessary line tanglings • No need to draw long wires ►One can draw short wires and name them • Components form horizontal and verticalcolumns • Wires are not drawn over components, buffers, pads CS 2204 Spring 2007
Digital Design Conventions • Logic Circuit DesignConventions • Part 3 of Experiment 5 Design Checks • If a component has multipleoutputs, make sure you use the needed ones • Outputs should not be short-circuited unless they are tri-state • If an output is not needed, leave it unconnected CS 2204 Spring 2007
Digital Design Conventions • Logic Circuit DesignConventions • Part 4 of Experiment 5 Design Checks • Do not forget to save schematics • Then, do a Xilinx IMPLEMENTATION to have the changes affect the output • From time to time clear the Implementation data on the Project Manager window by following • Project -> Clear Implementation Data • After clearing the data, next time you do a Xilinx IMPLEMENTATION, reenter the IMPLEMENTATION options CS 2204 Spring 2007
Digital Design Conventions • Logic Circuit DesignConventions • Part 5 of Experiment 5 Design Checks • Perform simulations • If an output value is Hi-Z during simulation, make sure it is correct • Read the Implementation Log file and work on the warnings and errors listed • If you do back to back Xilinx IMPLEMENTATIONs, the new IMPLEMENTATION data is appended to the end CS 2204 Spring 2007
Xilinx Project Development Steps • Develop the schematic • DESIGN the schematic • Design blocks, (sub)blocks • Place the components and wires • Do integrity TESTs • TEST the schematic via functional simulations • MODIFY the schematic to correct an error • Do a Xilinx IMPLEMENTATION • It maps the components to the CLBs of the chip • Do timing simulations to TEST the schematic • It generates the bit file • Download the bit file to the FPGA and test the design on the board • It programs the chip What are these components ?

Designing a New Chip • DESIGN • Implement each circuit • One or more Xilinx Design Blocks, XDBs or Xilinx non-programmablemacros (not gates and FFs) implement the circuit ? A few gates and FFs here and there ? • If yes, draw the schematic and move to the TEST step • One or more Programmable Xilinx macros implement the circuit ? A few gates and FFs here and there ? • If yes, draw the schematic, program the macros and move to the TEST step CS2204 CS 2204 Spring 2007
Designing a New Chip • DESIGN • Implement each circuit • Simple enough to be designed quickly using Switching Theory (less than 5 inputs or less than 5 FFs) so a few gates and/or FFs needed ? • If yes, draw the schematic and move to the TEST step • The circuit can be licensed ? • If yes, borrow it, place it and move to the TEST step • If no to all the above questions, go back to step 1(b) to partition it further or repartition one level up, two levels up,,, or, all the way up CS2204 CS 2204 Spring 2007
The Ppm Term Project • The black-box view • A large number of FFs are used ! • The Ppm is partitioned based on major operations • First partitioning of the digitalsystem • Control Unit • Data Unit • Second partitioning (DataUnit partitioning) • Interfacing to the input/output devices • Handling human player’s play • Controlling display operations based on game rules • Calculating new player points • Determining the machine player play CS 2204 Spring 2007

Block 5, Points Calculation Block Development • Points Calculation Block partitioning • There are several different ways to partition it, one of them is based on the following major operations : • Determine the adjacency of the position played • Determine the reward points of the position played • Determine new player points by adding the reward points to the current player points • Therefore, Block 5 has three subblocks • Adjacency Subblock : core circuit • Reward Calculation Subblock : core circuit • Points Subblock : Macro M1 and Macro M2 CS 2204 Spring 2007

This does not seem a simple and quick implementation ! ►Therefore, we decide not to accept this solution ! • If this whole subsubblock is simple enough to be implemented by gates right away ? ►Yes, this is possible since we have only four inputs and we can quickly get the expressions by using textual input/output relationships Our design will have gate networks then !
