2.2 Configurations
Table 2 below lists the NOEL-PF-EX example configurations. The bitstreams with example designs
are intended to cover a wide range of application scenarios. The bitstreams are available for download
from https://gaisler.com/NOEL-PF
Note:
The configurations above are examples on how to use the GRLIB IP cores on PolarFire. All IP
cores have several configuration parameters and are individually configurable.
Note: The NOEL-V processor can be configured in several different standard configurations, includ -
ing more RV64 variants, the configurations are listed at https://www.gaisler.com/NOEL-V
Note:
While software may report that fault-tolerance is enabled for the example designs, the bit -
streams are not suitable for use in harsh environments.
