kFPGA

kFPGA is an opensource platform for creating and programming FPGA cores.

Installation

Using pip

python3 -m pip install kfpga

From source

git clone https://git.slaanesh.org/killruana/kfpga.git
python3 kfpga/setup.py install

Usage

Creating a new kFPGA core

First, create the kFPGA core

kfpga-creator createcore \
    --width 5 \
    --height 5 \
    --io 4 \
    --clocks 1 \
    --sets 1 \
    --resets 1 \
    --enables 1 \
    --interconnect_width 10 \
    --le 4 \
    --lut 4 \
    kFPGADemoCore 

Then, you can generate the RTL of the core like this

kfpga-creator generatertl \
    kFPGADemoCore/kFPGADemoCore.kcp

Implementation

kFPGA cores can be implemented on FPGA for testing purpose, as an ASIC or integrated in a SoC.

TODO

Programming

kFPGA cores are programmed with the kfpga-programmer command

TODO

Architecture

Currently, the architecture of kFPGA core is very simple: only LUTs and interconnect. The following functionalities are planned:

• DSP blocks
• memory blocks
• carry chain
• support for generated clock, set, reset and enable signals
