摘要:The aim of this paper is to present a new design reuse approach for automatic generation of Voice over Internet protocol (VOIP) hardware description and implementation into FPSOCs and ASICs. Our motivation behind this work is justified by the following arguments: first, VOIP based System on chip (SOC) implementation is an emerging research and development area, where innovative applications can be implemented. Second, these systems are very complex and due to time to market pressure, there is a need to built platforms that help the designer to explore with different architectural possibilities and choose the circuit that best correspond to the specification s. Third, we aim to develop in hardware, design, methods and tools that are used in software like the MATLAB tool for VOIP implementation. To achieve our goal, the proposed design approach is based on a modular design of the VOIP architecture. The originality of our approach is the application of the design for reuse (DFR) and the design with reuse (DWR) concepts. To validate the approach, a case study of a SOC based on the OR1K processor is studied. We demonstrate that the proposed SoC architecture is reconfigurable, scalable and the final RTL code can be reused for any FPSOC or ASIC technology. As an example, Performances measures, in the VIRTEX-5 FPGA device family, and ASIC 65nm technology are shown through this paper.
