Teams comprised of 2-5 students will compete in an System on a Chip (SoC) design competition using FPGA development boards. The goal of the competition is to design an FPGA-based processor with associated peripherals and memory components around a provided ARM Cortex-M0 DesignStart core, along with associated software to demonstrate a correctly working system. The competition will use Digilent development boards with Xilinx FPGAs. Example themes will be provided, but the competition will be completely open-ended and teams are encouraged to use their own ideas for their systems. Lectures and workshops will be provided by ARM, Xilinx, Digilent, and MIT during the first week of the competition to get teams started. This is the first ever processor design contest using a full instruction set compatible ARM core.
Final Presentations, 2/3, 4 PM, 32-141.
