Embodiment
As shown in Figure 1, fpga chip universal test device provided by the utility model is made up of master controller, config memory, relay matrix, chip Fixing clamp-seat (not shown) and switching deck.Wherein, master controller connects integrated circuit tester on the one hand, therefrom obtains the resource of integrated circuit tester; Connect config memory and relay matrix on the other hand respectively, so that they are controlled.Config memory is connected between master controller and the relay matrix, is used to store the configuration file of various fpga chips.When test, config memory can provide test required configuration file to master controller.Above-mentioned master controller can be realized by MCU (microcontroller), DSP general purpose microprocessors such as (digital signal processors).Config memory can be E 2PROM or FLASH (nonvolatile memory) etc.As required, the config memory in this fpga chip universal test device can be set to a plurality of.Because config memory can be stored the configuration file of various fpga chips, therefore this fpga chip universal test device can be finished configuration effort to fpga chip automatically according to the configuration requirement of different fpga chips, and carries out the flexible configuration of active mode, passive mode and JTAG mode as required.
Relay matrix directly is connected with integrated circuit tester on the one hand, is fastened on the tested fpga chip on the chip Fixing clamp-seat on the other hand.This relay matrix is controlled by master controller, can according to different configuration needs the resource link of configuration memory access or integrated circuit tester to the different pins of fpga chip.According to the difference of configuration mode, can the automatically switch connected mode of integrated circuit tester pin and fpga chip of relay matrix is finished configuration, functional test and parameter testing work to fpga chip.
At present, the more employing of fpga chip QFP (Quad Flat Package, flat package) 208 packaged types, so the chip Fixing clamp-seat in this fpga chip universal test device preferentially uses the QPF208 deck to fix chip.But in practice, fpga chip also has the situation of using other packaged type such as DIP, PLCC etc., so this chip Fixing clamp-seat form of also wanting corresponding selection to adapt with it.This routine that is those of ordinary skills can both carry out is selected, and has not just given unnecessary details in detail at this.
Above-mentioned switching deck is mainly used in realizes being connected between this fpga chip universal test device and the integrated circuit tester that it is fixedly mounted on the PCB circuit board of this fpga chip universal test device.
In this fpga chip universal test device, store the configuration file of multiple fpga chip by disposing memory access, relay matrix is responsible for config memory, test resource is connected with fpga chip, the main controller controls whole test process.After master controller is received the test commencing signal, different according to configuration mode and chip kind, the pilot relay matrix is communicated with fpga chip as required with config memory, send configuration file according to correct sequential control config memory to fpga chip, thereby fpga chip is disposed automatically.Be sent completely information to this fpga chip universal test device after configuration is finished, relay matrix switches simultaneously, fpga chip is communicated with the resource of integrated circuit tester, so that carry out the test of the function and the parameter of fpga chip.
The final internal logic structure of fpga chip is determined by configuration data.For the fpga chip of a certain model, its configuration file format all is the same, disposes required pin and also determines, configuration sequential and layoutprocedure also are constant.In this fpga chip universal test device, configuration file stores is in config memory, and configuration pin is switched by relay matrix, and configuration sequential and layoutprocedure are by main controller controls.Below, be that example is carried out specific description with the XC3030 FPGA of Xilinx.
The configuration file length of XC3030 is 22,216, preceding 40 is file header, file finishes with " 1111 ", have 241 frame configuration datas in the middle of the file, every frame length is 92bit, and these configuration datas are loaded among the SRAM of fpga chip inside by external control circuit, the inside of fpga chip just possesses certain logical organization, thereby reaches the function that user program will be realized.
Xilinx FPGA has 5 kinds of configuration modes: active serial mode, byte holotype (address ascending order), byte holotype (address descending), peripheral modes and active parallel schema.Fig. 2 and Fig. 3 adopt initiatively serial mode and initiatively the fpga chip configuration block diagram of parallel schema.
For fpga chip, a part of pin is used to be configured.For example used configuration pin has in peripheral configuration mode:

Effectively, this moment, handled the byte that receives the internal buffer, can not receive new data, after finishing dealing with, and RDY/ Signal becomes height again, can receive the configuration data of next byte.T among Fig. 4 BUSYLength change according to the internal state of fpga chip, generally speaking,, finish tens microseconds of the longest needs of configuration of a byte to the FPGA of XC3000 series.
Concrete layoutprocedure is as follows:
1) initialization, system power on, and user-programmable I/O pins all after powering on all become three-state;
2) empty config memory;
Finish power on and empty the storer process after, fpga chip can with
Figure BSA00000180813000056
Signal is put low level, begins to empty config memory simultaneously, then,
Figure BSA00000180813000057
Signal will be changed to high level again.
3) sampling configuration mode;
After the emptying of config memory finished, the device inspection

Be height, fpga chip will be sampled to configuration mode pin M2, M1, M0, to determine which kind of mode loading configuration data with.
4) load configuration data;
Figure BSA000001808130000510
Keep high state, fpga chip begins to load configuration data.
5) enter the START-UP state;
After all data configurations were finished, fpga chip entered the START-UP state, the DONE/ of chip
Figure BSA000001808130000511
Leg signal is uprised by low, and the sign configuration finishes, and each I/O pin will switch to the state that the user is provided with from three-state.After the START-UP state finished, the content that the user is provided with successfully was loaded into fpga chip, as long as to the fpga chip normal power supply, these information will keep down always.
In general, the test of fpga chip can be represented with a set: TestFPGA={ (configuration 1, functional test 1, parameter testing 1) ..., (configuration n, functional test n, parameter testing n) }.That is to say that this fpga chip universal test device at first will be realized the configuration of fpga chip, and under the situation that the configuration information that guarantees fpga chip is not lost, finish function corresponding and parameter testing.Various configurations just can reach testing requirement if desired, and then this process need repeats repeatedly.
As shown in Figure 1, also be provided with jtag interface in this fpga chip universal test device.This jtag interface connects master controller on the one hand, connects tested fpga chip on the other hand.JTAG is a kind of international standard test protocol (IEEE 1149.1 compatibilities), is mainly used in the chip internal test.Its ultimate principle is internal node to be tested by the jtag test instrument of special use at a chip internal TAP of definition (Test Access Port, test access mouth).As shown in Figure 5, jtag test allows a plurality of fpga chips to be cascaded by jtag interface, forms a JTAG chain, thereby realizes each fpga chip is tested respectively.
Above this fpga chip universal test device is had been described in detail.For one of ordinary skill in the art, any conspicuous change of under the prerequisite that does not deviate from the utility model connotation it being done all will constitute to the utility model infringement of patent right, with corresponding legal responsibilities.
