The GRSPW core implements a SpaceWire
Codec with RMAP support and AMBATM host
interface. The core implements the SpaceWire
standard with the protocol identification
extension and RMAP protocol draft. Receive and
transmit data is autonomously transferred
between the SpaceWire Codec and the AMBA
AHB bus using DMA transfers.
Through the use of receive and transmit
descriptors, multiple SpaceWire packets can be
received and transmitted without processor
involvement. The GRSPW control registers are
accessed through an APB interface.

Applications
The fault tolerant design of the SpaceWire core in
combination with the radiation tolerant Actel
FPGA gives total immunity to radiation effects
and makes it well suited for space applications.
