SYSTEM, METHOD AND ARTICLE OF MANUFACTURE FOR UTILIZING A CODE LIBRARY TO IMPLEMENT DRIVERS IN A RECONFIGURABLE LOGIC DEVICE |
摘要 |
A system, method and article of manufacture are provided for implementing drivers in a reconfigurable logic device. A request for access to one or more hardware devices is received. Such hardware can include, for example, a mouse, keyboard, display device, etc. A reconfigurable logic device is put in communication with a code library. Preferably, the reconfigurable logic device is capable of being configured to communicate with multiple hardware devices. Such a code library includes one or more drivers for interfacing the hardware device with an application. A driver associated with the hardware device is retrieved from the code library. The driver is utilized to configure the reconfigurable logic device to communicate with the hardware device(s). In one aspect of the present invention, the reconfigurable logic device interfaces with a hardware register, buffer management, a microprocessor, an interrupt handler, and/or a memory transfer application or device. Preferably, the reconfigurable logic device includes at least one field programmable gate array (FPGA). |
