I now have a simple DMA, it just moves words around the memory given a to and from address and the length in words.
Now that this is complete I can start to put together the Interrupt Controller.
Once this is complete I can create a simple processor complex comprising of a Trinity Core, Non Blocking Multi Master Slave Interconnect, Interrupt Controller, an Open Cores Uart, simple PIO block and a simple Two Line LCD Display Driver.
This can be then used for a simple FPGA Board which will allow some 'Hardware' Hobby work.
However this does not mean that the Multicore work will have come to a standstill.
On the contrary I will take the back plane and formalise the structure a bit more.
Once that is done I can have two sets of designs. One for a small FPGA and the other which can be arrayed as I need.
