- Firmware:
- very simple single master bus definition
- multiple basic modules (SPI, SEQ, GPIO, I2C)
- multiple interfaces (UART, USB2, USB3, Ethernet)
- Software:
- layer structure following hardware
- generation based on yaml file
- register abstract layer (RAL)
- simulator interface allows software test against simulated RTL (thanks to cocotb)
