9 years agoPossible to call verilog code from a c program running on a soft processor on an FPGA
I have a soft NIOS II processor instantiated on an Altera FPGA. I have 4 JTAG pins connected from the FPGA to a FTDI chip (lets call them A1, A2, A3, A4). I have the JTAG pins from 2 MCUs connected t...

9 years agoFPGA JTAG pins are dedicated resources with fixed location and can't be selected by configuration or user logic.
FPGA logic blocks aren't "called", neither from other FPGA modules nor a soft processor. The logic operation can be however made conditional, depending on a register written by the soft processor.
