CPU subSystem

Hi All,

I need to bring up a Keil PK51 subsystem platform that contains the following needs:

Two IP core DP8051 CPU’s share same 64k RAM code and 16M data.
CPU A run a boot loader and application A
CPU B run application B.

Sequence of operation:
CPU B is halted
CPU A boot loader loads code from E2prom to 64k ram (0-32K for cpu A, 32-64K for cpu B ).
CPU A application A starts its operation from 0-32K.
CPU A application releases CPU B from reset.
CPU B address 0 is HW trapped to jump to address 32K were application B was loaded.
CPU B application B starts its operation from 32K-64K.
Both cpu running.

Data segment:
Both CPU A and CPU B are operating on data segment of 16M, each one writes/reads different register in the same data space.

How do you think I should build it in the Keil environment?

Thanks,

Parents
  • Hi,
    The share RAM is mapped up to 16M.
    It contains variable and HW register space.
    Both CPU use the same bus but access different address in the far 16M memory.
    The bus will allow each time a different CPU to use the RAM.
    From software point of view I have two CPU’s running different code and RAM spaces.
    How it’s best to implement it?
