NOEL-PF-EX-UM
Jul 2022, Version 2.0
Description
The NOEL-PF FPGA bitstreams are a collection of
example designs built from Cobham Gaisler's GRLIB
IP library using a template design for Microsemi
PolarFire devices. The example designs are suitable
for evaluation of NOEL microprocessors in system-
on-chip designs.
Specification
• Targets Microsemi MPF300-SPLASH-KIT FPGA-
board
