PicoBlaze 8-bit Microcontroller
- Bundled With:
- Vivado Design Suite
Product Description
PicoBlaze™ is a fully embedded 8-bit RISC microcontroller core optimized for 7 series and older AMD FPGA architectures. This reference design is offered free to AMD users, and comes with an easy to-use code assembler KCPSM6 (or KCPSM3 for older FPGA families), VHDL and Verilog source code, simulation models, comprehensive documentation and reference designs.
Key Features and Benefits
- Supports UltraScale, Virtex 7, Kintex 7, Artix 7, Zynq and older AMD FPGA families
- Very small size as small as 26 slices depending on device family
- Up to 4K 18-bit instructions
- Up to 240MHz performance
- Everything in FPGA - no external components required
- Highly integrated for implementing non-time critical state machine
- Predictable fast interrupt response
