VILLASfpga provides a flexbible, real-time capable interconnect between FPGAs and Linux, e.g., to connect simulators and devices for hardware-in-the loop simulations. VILLASfpga can guarantee fixed latencies in the nanosecond range. VILLASfpga supports Xilinx FPGAs connected to a Linux system via PCI-Express or via a platform bus as found on MPSoC devices.
