~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
Assuming this example test chip is taped out and now ready to be tested, we can communicate with the chip using this serial-link.
|
||||
For example, some Berkeley tapeouts of Chipyard chips have an FPGA running a RISC-V soft-core that is able to speak to the DUT.
|
||||
For example, a common test setup used at Berkeley to evaluate Chipyard-based test-chips includes an FPGA running a RISC-V soft-core that is able to speak to the DUT (over an FMC).
|
||||
This RISC-V soft-core would serve as the host of the test that will run on the DUT.
|
||||
This is done by the RISC-V soft-core running FESVR, sending TSI commands to a ``SerialAdapter`` / ``TLSerdesser`` programmed on the FPGA.
|
||||
Once the commands are converted to serialized TileLink, then they can be sent over some medium to the DUT
