Abstract :
We present an architecture for electronic boards which combines the advantages of system-on-chip integration and the use of flash microcontrollers with analog capabilities. The design of the SoC follows an standard specification for interconnection architecture for IP cores. "Upgradable hardware" and "reconfigurability" features have been added to the system in order to decrease complexity and price.
