It has a stack-based architecture where most of the operations are done on the top elements of the stack. The instruction set consists of 17 14-bit instructions optimized for framing and driving software code. ASH1 communicates with the main processing unit (Master CPU) through a wishbone bus. It has been proven reliably at 50 MHz in an Altera Cyclone II FPGA device. With around 1400 FPGA slices and a maximum clock frequency of 90 MHz, ASH1 could make a good substitute for big USB IP Cores. Future work includes making ASH1 MAC Ethernet capable and USB2 compatible. {\^A}{\copyright} 2015 IEEE.}, url = {https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84969858016&doi=10.1109\%2fCircuitsAndSystems.2015.7394068&partnerID=40&md5=8b050288caf0bf0ac1e4fd65b2b23dad}, keywords = {Altera cyclones; Clock frequency; Input output processors; Instruction set; Processing units; Software codes; stack; Work in progress, Reconfigurable hardware}, isbn = {9781479917310}, author = {Al-Dujaili, A. and Hiung, L.
