- Goals for rlink v4
- 16 bit addresses (instead of 8 bit)
- more robust encoding, support for error recovery at transport level
- add features to reduce round trips
- improved attention handling
- new 'list abort' command
- For further details see README_Rlink_V4.txt
- use own C++ based tcl shell tclshcpp instead of tclsh
- new reference system
- switched from ISE 13.3 to 14.7.
- map/par behaviour changed, unfortunately unfavorably for w11a.
On Nexys3 no timing closure anymore for 80 MHz, only 72 MHz can
be achieved now.
- new man pages (in doc/man/man1/)
- support for Spartan-6 CMTs in PLL and DCM mode
- Added simple simulation model of Cypress FX2 and test benches for
functional verifcation of FX2 controller
- Bugfixes in FX2 firmware and controller, works now also on Nexys3 & Atlys
- Added test systems for rlink over USB verification for Nexys3 & Atlys
- re-organized handling of board and derived clocks in test benches
- added message filter definitions for some designs (.mfset files)
- added Cypress EZ-USB FX2 controller (USB interface)
- added firmware for EZ-USB FX2 supporting jtag access and data transfer
- FPGA configure over USB now supported directly in make build flow
- added test systems for USB testing and rlink over USB verification
- no functional change of w11a CPU core or any pre-existing test systems
- Note: Carefully read the disclaimer about usage of USB VID/PID numbers
in the file README_USB-VID-PID.txt. You'll be responsible for any
misuse of the defaults provided with the project sources !!
