ValentyUSB
USB Full-Speed core written in Migen/LiteX. This core has been tested and is known to work on various incarnations of Fomu. It requires you to have a 48 MHz clock and a 12 MHz clock. It optionally comes with a debug bridge for debugging Wishbone.
Usage
To use this in your project, instantiate one of the CPU instances. The epfifo
instances is the most widely-tested API, however dummyusb
can be used for designs without a CPU.
- DummyUsb: A wishbone device with no CPU interface that simply enumerates and can act as a Wishbone bridge
- PerEndpointFifoInterface: Requires a CPU to configure and manage the device.

# If a CPU is present, add a per-endpoint interface. Otherwise, add a dummy
# interface that simply acts as a Wishbone bridge.
# Note that the dummy interface only really makes sense when doing a debug build.
# Also note that you can add a dummyusb interface to a CPU if you only care
# about the wishbone bridge.

Debug tools
You can use the litex_server
built into the litex distribution to communicate with the device:
$ litex_server --usb --usb-pid 0x70bl
Alternately, you can use wishbone-tool:
$ wishbone-tool 0
INFO [wishbone_tool::usb_bridge] opened USB device device 017 on bus 001
Value at 00000000: 6f80106f
$
GDB server
You can use wishbone-tool
to run a GDB server:
$ wishbone-tool -s gdb
INFO [wishbone_tool::usb_bridge] opened USB device device 017 on bus 001
INFO [wishbone_tool] accepting connections on 0.0.0.0:1234
