PolarFire SoC MSS Configurator
Overview
Microchip introduces PolarFire SoC MSS configurator, a software tool to configure the PolarFire SoC microprocessor subsystem. The MSS configuration is imported by Libero SoC in the FPGA design flow and SoftConsole in the Embedded design flow.
Key Features
- Generates a Libero MSS component for the FPGA Design
- Generates C data structures to initialize the memory map in the embedded environment
The MSS Configurator is used to configure
- MSS clocks
- Fabric interfaces
- IO banks
- DDR Memories
- Debug Features
The MSS configurator Software is available in two options
- Standalone software - Download Now
- Installed with the Libero SoC design suite v12.5 (or later) as PFSoC MSS Configurator.
- You can also find the executable in
- Windows: <$Installation_Directory>\Microsemi\Libero_SoC_vX.X\Designer \bin64\pfsoc_mss.exe
- Linux: <$Installation_Directory>\Microsemi\Libero_SoC_vX.X\bin64\pfsoc_mss
