Abstract

Based on PXI Express bus protocol and PXI Express hardware specification, PXI Express embedded controller is designed in this paper. MPC8536 is taken as a processor in the overall hardware program. FPGA and PXI Express Switch are taken to design PXI Express interface. Cut and customed VxWorks OS is taken in the software program. U-boot ensure normal operation of the embedded controller. BSP boot the VxWorks OS to complete the normal start up, then check the function of each part. Finally, a test platform of AD data acquisition module is built to verify the design.
