ORCA Series 3C and 3T FPGAs
Microprocessor Interface (MPI)
The Series 3 FPGAs have a dedicated synchronous
microprocessor interface function block (see
Figure 42). The MPI is programmable to operate with
PowerPC MPC800 series microprocessors and Intel *
i960 * J core processors; see Table 16 and Table 17,
respectively, for compatible processors. The MPI imple-
ments an 8-bit interface to the host processor ( Pow-
erPC or i960 ) that can be used for configuration and
readback of the FPGA as well as for user-defined data
processing and general monitoring of FPGA function.
In addition to dedicated-function registers, the micro-
processor interface allows for the control of up to 16
user registers (RAM or flip-flops) in the FPGA logic. A
synchronous/asynchronous handshake procedure is
used to control transactions with user logic in the FPGA
array. There is also capability for the FPGA logic to

interrupt the host processor either by a hard interrupt or
by having the host processor poll the microprocessor
interface.
The control portion of the microprocessor interface is
available following powerup of the FPGA if the mode
pins specify MPI mode, even if the FPGA is not yet con-
figured. The mode pin (M[2:0]) settings can be found in
the FPGA Configuration Modes section of this data
sheet, and the setup and use of the MPI for configura-
tion is discussed in the MPI Setup and Control subsec-
tion. For postconfiguration use, the MPI must be
included in the configuration bit stream by using an MPI
library element in your design from the ORCA macro
library, or by setting the MP_USER bit of the MPI con-
figuration control register prior to the start of configura-
tion ( MPI registers are discussed later).
