Processor To Be Evaluated
ProASIC Plus
Interface Type
RS-232
Core Parameters
Core429 has several top-level Verilog parameters (VHDL
generics) that are used to select the number of channels
and FIFO sizes of the core that is implemented. Using
these parameters allows the size of the core to be
reduced when all the channels are not required.

When this parameter is set to '1', a bit rate of 100/50 kbps is
selected. Otherwise selects a bit rate of 100/12.5 kbps. The bit
rate can be changed for the Rx/Tx channel pair. Refer to the Tx
and Rx control register bit descriptions in

For RTL versions, the parameters in
directly set. For netlist versions of the core, a netlist
implementing four Tx and four Rx channels is provided
as per the defaults above. Actel will supply netlists with
alternative parameter settings on request.
