Avalon State Sequencer Reference Design
from Altera Corporation
OverviewThe Altera®State Sequencer is a small-footprint SOPC Builder component that provides functionality for fast switching of a large number of signals external to the Avalon® system in a completely deterministic manner, with zero-latency response to inputs. It provides a solution in designs where a microprocessor would be too large and require too many clock cycles to perform rapid stimulus generation. Additionally, it provides an alternative to the lengthy design process involved in engineering a custom state machine and is highly configurable, allowing designers to find a unique fit for a wide range of applications. Features- Small footprint
- Completely deterministic
