Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) HOSMII is a virtual hardware system with a data driven control mechanism. It uses a multi-context FPGA which provides multiple sets of configuration memory inside the chip. Using FPGA/CPLD embedded with DRAM enables us to keep a lot of configuration memory sets in a chip. Though research prototypes of such a chip have been implemented, these devices are not optimized for HOSMII mechanism. Here, a multicontext DRAM FPGA chip called HOSMII chip is implemented for HOSMII mechanism. HOSMII chip is a 0.35μm standard cell CMOS with metal-3 poly-2 layer. It provides 16 contexts in 4.93mm~2. Electric simulation shows the logic block works at 100MHz with 3.3V voltage supply. Also, it takes about 5ns to reconfigure the whole circuits.
