The Altera SoC FPGA integrates a dual ARM Cortex-A9 hard processor system (HPS) consisting of processor, peripherals and memory interfaces tied seamlessly with the FPGA fabric using a high-bandwidth interconnect backbone. The embedded Altera SoC IOC has features of remote network boot via u-boot from SD card or QSPI Flash, 1Gig Ethernet, 1GB DDRs SDRAM on HPS, UART serial ports, and ISA bus interface. RTEMS for the ARM processor BSP were built with CEXP shell, which will dynamically load the EPICS applications at runtime. U-boot is the primary bootloader to remotely load the kernel image into local memory from a DHCP/TFTP server over Ethernet, and automatically run the RTEMS and EPICS. The standard SoC IOC board would be mounted in a chassis and connected to a daughter card via a standard HSMC connector. The first design of the SoC IOC will be compatible with our current PC10⁴ IOCs, which have been running on our accelerator control system for 10 years. Eventually, the standard SOC IOCS would be the next generation of low-level IOC for the Accelerator control at Jefferson Lab.
