FPGA產(chǎn)品中部分是采用菊花鏈在系統(tǒng)編程方式的。這種先進的編程方式已成為當今世界上各類可編程器件發(fā)展的趨勢。因為它省卻了價格昂貴，操作不便的專用編程器，只需要一個十分簡單的下載編程電路和一條PC機的打印機通訊線就行了。它無須編程高壓，在TTL電平下隨時可進行在線編程，并可進行所謂菊花鏈式多片串行編程。其編程次數(shù)多達1萬次，如Lattice的isles和AMD公司的MACH系列。此外，還可輕易地實現(xiàn)紅外編程，超聲編程或無線編程，或通過電話線遠程在線編程。這些功能在通訊器件和軍事器件上有特殊用途。②高速。CPLD/FPGA的時鐘延遲可達ns級，結(jié)合其并行工作方式，在超高速應用領域和實時測控方面有非常廣闊的應用前景。如果利用ALTERA的FLEX10K50開發(fā)通過USB接口的網(wǎng)絡圖像實時加密/解密ASIC系統(tǒng)，在FLEX10K50中進行高達56位二進制的并行四則運算，每一加密/解密周期只需數(shù)μs，而MCU需時近1分。又如在模具制造業(yè)的電火花成型加工中，電機控制的加工件的有效運行距離僅數(shù)μs，這要求極敏感和高速的控制飼服電路系統(tǒng)，否則不是發(fā)生短路拉弧，就是擊穿不足。顯然，這方面的工作，MCU也是難于直接參與的。如果利用ispLSI1032進行直接飼服控制，對測速電機的閉環(huán)飼服，利用ispLSI對AD1674直接進行采樣控制，8位采用精度，最高速度達8μs/每次，從而實現(xiàn)了良好的閉環(huán)同步和變速控制。③高可靠性。在高可靠應用領域，MCU的缺憾為CPLD/FPGA的應用留下了很大的用武之地。這組器件盡管在功能開發(fā)上是通過EDA軟件實現(xiàn)的。但物理機制卻像一片74LS164那樣純屬硬件電路，十分可靠。通過合理設計，大多數(shù)應用中，無須考慮復雜的復位和初始化。設計中只需利用簡單的語句將閑置狀態(tài)導入同一初始入口，就能有效防止任何可能的“死機”現(xiàn)象。由于是并行工作，它的任一輸入腳都可用作類似于MCU的中斷監(jiān)測引腳，且反應速度僅為納妙級。CPLD/FPGA的高可靠性還表現(xiàn)在幾乎可將整個系統(tǒng)下載于同一芯片中，從而大大縮小了體積，易于管理和屏蔽。④功能強大，應用廣闊。目前，CPLD/FPGA的可選擇范圍很大，可根據(jù)不同的應用選用不同容量的芯片，如Lattice的ispLSI和AMD公司的MACH，最小芯片的等效邏輯門為1000門，最大達數(shù)十萬門。ALTERA和XILINX公司推出的百萬門的CPLD/FPGA可實現(xiàn)幾乎任何形式的數(shù)字電路或數(shù)字系統(tǒng)的設計。隨著這類器件的廣泛應用和成本的大幅下降，以及產(chǎn)品上市速率的提高，CPLD/FPGA在系統(tǒng)中的直接應用率正直逼ASIC的開發(fā)。⑤易學易用，開發(fā)便捷。單片機應用系統(tǒng)的設計對于行家里手來說是十分簡單的事。然而，對于初學者，諸如CPU的工作方式、眾多特殊寄存器的用法、中斷概念等等，著實不是一件容易的事。相比之下，CPLD/FPGA應用的學習卻不需要太多的預備知識，只要稍具一點數(shù)字電路和計算機軟件設計的基礎知識，就能在短期內(nèi)掌握基本的設計方法和開發(fā)技巧。而且反過來去學用單片機，就顯得輕車熟路多了。這無疑是高技術(shù)為我們的學習提供了捷徑，站在巨人的肩膀當然能更快地獲得成功?？梢灶A言，我國EDA技術(shù)的學習熱潮和CPLD/FPGA的應用熱潮決不會遜色于過去10年的單片機熱潮。⑥開發(fā)周期短。由于相應的EDA軟件功能完善而強大，仿真能力便捷而實時，開發(fā)過程形象而直觀，兼之硬件因素涉及甚少，因此可以在很短時間內(nèi)完成十分復雜的系統(tǒng)設計，這是產(chǎn)品快速進入市場的最寶貴的特征。一些EDA專家預言，未來的大系統(tǒng)的CPLD/FPGA設計僅僅是各類再應用邏輯與IP核(CORE)的拼裝，其設計周期僅以小時計。TI公司認為，一個ASIC百分之八十的功能可用IP核等現(xiàn)成邏輯合成。一.開發(fā)語言VHDLVHDL(VeryHighSpeedIntegratedCircuitHardwareDescriptionLanguage)是非常高速集成電路硬件描述語言，是可以描述硬件電路的功能、信號連接關(guān)系及定時關(guān)系的語言．它能比電路原理圖更有效地表示硬件電路的特性。使用VHDL語言，可以就系統(tǒng)的總體要求出發(fā)，自上至下地將設計內(nèi)容細化，最后完成系統(tǒng)硬件的整體設計。VHDL語言已作為一種IEEE的工業(yè)標準，設計結(jié)果便于復用和交流。目前，它還不能應用于模擬電路的設計，但已有人投入研究。VHDL程序結(jié)構(gòu)包括：實體(Entity)、結(jié)構(gòu)體(Architecture)、配置(Configuration)、包集合(Package)及庫(Library)。其中，實體是一個VHDL程序的基本單元，由實體說明和結(jié)構(gòu)體兩部分組成：實體說明用于描述設計系統(tǒng)的外部接口信號；結(jié)構(gòu)體用于描述系統(tǒng)的行為、系統(tǒng)數(shù)據(jù)的流程或系統(tǒng)組織結(jié)構(gòu)形式。配置用語從庫中選取所需的單元來組成系統(tǒng)設計的不同規(guī)格的不同版本，使被設計系統(tǒng)的功能發(fā)生變化。包集合存放各設計模塊能共享的數(shù)據(jù)類型、常數(shù)、子程序等。庫用于存放已編譯的實體、構(gòu)造體、包集合及配置：一種是用戶自己開發(fā)的工程軟件，另一種是制造商提供的庫。VHDL語言的主要特點是：①功能強大，靈活性高：VHDL語言是一種功能強大的語言結(jié)構(gòu)，可用簡潔明確的代碼來進行復雜控制邏輯的設計。同時VHDL語言還支持層次化的設計，支持設計庫和可重復使用的元件生成。目前，VHDL語言已成為一種設計、仿真、綜合的標準硬件描述語言。②器件無關(guān)性：VHDL語言允許設計者在生成一個設計時不需要首先選擇一個具體的器件。對于同一個設計描述，可以采用多種不同器件結(jié)構(gòu)來實現(xiàn)其功能。因此設計描述階段，可以集中精力從事設計構(gòu)思。當設計、仿真通過后，指定具體的器件綜合、適配即可。③可移植性：VHDL語言是一種標準的語言，故采用VHDL進行的設計可以被不同的EDA工具所支持。從一個仿真工具移植到另一個仿真工具，從一個綜合工具移植到另一個綜合工具，從一個工作平臺移植到另一個工作平臺。在一個EDA工具中采用的技術(shù)技巧，在其它工具中同樣可以采用。④自頂向下的設計方法：傳統(tǒng)的設計方法是，自底向上的設計或平坦式設計。自底向上的設計方法是先從底層模塊設計開始，逐漸由各個模塊形成功能復雜的電路。這種設計方法優(yōu)點是很明顯的，因為它是一種層次設計電路，一般電路的子模塊都是按照結(jié)構(gòu)或功能劃分，因此這種電路層次清楚，結(jié)構(gòu)明確，便于多人合作開發(fā)，同時設計文件易于存檔，易于交流。自底向上設計方法的缺點也很明顯，往往由于整體設計思路不對而使的花費幾個月的低層設計付之東流。平坦式設計是整個電路只含有一個模塊，電路的設計是平鋪直敘的，沒有結(jié)構(gòu)和功能上的劃分，因此不是層次電路的設計方式。優(yōu)點是小型電路設計時可以節(jié)省時間和精力，但隨著電路復雜程度的增加，這種設計方式的缺點變的異常突出。自頂向下的設計方法是將要設計的電路進行最頂層的描述（頂層建模），然后利用EDA軟件進行頂層仿真，如果頂層設計的仿真結(jié)果滿足要求，則可以繼續(xù)將頂層劃分的模塊進行低一級的劃分并仿真，這樣一級一級設計最終將完成整個電路的設計。自頂向下的設計方法與前面兩種方法相比優(yōu)點是很明顯的。⑤數(shù)據(jù)類型豐富：作為硬件描述語言的一種VHDL語言的數(shù)據(jù)類型非常豐富，除了VHDL語言自身預定義的十種數(shù)據(jù)類型外，在VHDL語言程序設計中還可以由用戶自定義數(shù)據(jù)類型。特別是std_logic數(shù)據(jù)類型的使用，使得VHDL語言能最真實模擬電路中的復雜信號。⑥建模方便：由于VHDL語言中可綜合的語句和用于仿真的語句齊備，行為描述能力強，因此VHDL語言特別適合信號建模。目前VHDL的綜合器能對復雜的算術(shù)描述進行綜合（如：QuartusⅡ2.0以上的版本都能對std_logic_vector類型的數(shù)據(jù)進行加、減、乘、除），因此對于復雜電路的建模VHDL語言無論仿真還是綜合都是非常合適的描述語言。⑦運行庫和程序包豐富：目前支持VHDL語言的程序包很豐富，大多以庫的形式存放在特定的目錄下，用戶可隨時調(diào)用。如IEEE庫收集了std_logic_1164、std_logic_arith、std_logic_unsigned等程序包。在CPLD/FPGA綜合時，還可以使用EDA軟件商提供的各種庫和程序包。而且用戶利用VHDL語言編寫的各種成果都可以以庫的形式存放，在后續(xù)的設計中可以繼續(xù)使用。⑧VHDL語言是一種硬件電路的建模描述語言，因此與普通的計算機語言有較大差別，普通計算機語言是CPU按照時鐘的節(jié)拍，一條指令執(zhí)行完后才能執(zhí)行下一條指令，因此指令執(zhí)行是有先后順序的，也即是順序執(zhí)行，而每條指令的執(zhí)行占用特定的時間。而與VHDL語言描述結(jié)果相對應的是硬件電路，它遵循硬件電路的特點，語句的執(zhí)行沒有先后順序，是并發(fā)的執(zhí)行的；而且語句的執(zhí)行不象普通軟件那樣每條指令占用一定的時間，只是遵循硬件電路自身的延遲時間。二.開發(fā)環(huán)境MAX+PLUSⅡ/QUARTERⅡAltera公司是世界三大CPLD／FPGA廠家之一，它的器件能達到最高的性能和集成度，不僅僅因為采用了先進的工藝和全新的邏輯結(jié)構(gòu)，還在于它提供了現(xiàn)代化的設計工具一MAX+PLUSⅡ可編程邏輯開發(fā)軟件，該軟件是Altera公司推出的第三代PLD開發(fā)系統(tǒng)。提供了一種與結(jié)構(gòu)
