Abstract

In this paper, we describe off-chip based microprocessor and interface between FPGA systems. The off-chip process can reduce the time, cost, and complexity of system design and development as compared to systems based on programmable chips. This paper describes the structure of the Off-chip based interface system, communication of multiple-processor, communication of FPGA-Microprocessor and lastly the process of application development. In addition, the performance of Off-chip based interface system is verified by applying developed application to Autonomous Guided Vehicle.
