Implementing a UDP Echo Server using XIlinx Microblaze on a Pynq-Z2 with LAN8720 Ethernet PHY Board
This project demonstrates running the lwIP UDP/IP stack on a MicroBlaze soft processor within an XIlinx PYNQ-Z2 FPGA to create a simple embedded Ethernet communications subsystem. The design integrates a custom Ethernet PHY interface and AXI EthernetLite MAC to enable basic networking functionality. An lwIP echo server runs on the MicroBlaze, while the Zynq Processing System hosts a UART bridge application for host communication. The project is being used to undertake design exploration for soft-core processors in FPGA logic to implement and verify lightweight networking stacks.

nanoSoC V3, the next version of nanoSoC
This project aims to access the user needs and develop the next increment of capability for nanoSoC. It outlines the justification and motives behind the architectural redesign, design flow improvements and code repository refactor. With a number of new subsystems planned for nanoSoC and learning from various projects to date, this version of nanoSOC is expected to provide a much better support for academic projects.

AXI Chiplet Controller Architecture

AXI Chiplet Controller

For a chiplet system, you need a communication interface between chiplets. The industry has developed standards that require complicated IPs around UCIe and the CHI interface from Arm. For many academic projects these are probably more complicated than needed . The aim of this project is to produce a simple chiplet communications interface based around the open standard AXI protocol. 

The project is hosted here: https://git.soton.ac.uk/soclabs/chiplets/axi-chiplet-controller

ASIC for parallel channel tuning on Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces

Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RIS) are planar structures composed of large arrays of tunable elements that can dynamically redirect, reflect, or shape wireless signals in the environment.
