Chapter 4: Generating the Core
Component Name
The component name is used as the base name of the output files generated for the core. Names must begin with a letter and must be composed from the following characters: a through z, 0 through 9 and “_”.
Core Delivery Format
The Ethernet AVB Endpoint core can be delivered in two different formats, selectable from this section of the CORE Generator software Customization GUI:
•Standard CORE Generator software format (provided for the standard ISE software environment)
This option will deliver the core in the standard CORE Generator software output format, as used by many other cores including previous versions of this core and all other Ethernet LogiCORE™ IP solutions.
When generated in this format, the core is designed to interface to the LogiCORE IP
When generated in this format, “Ethernet AVB GUI Page 2” is available for customization of the “PLB Interface”.
•Generate as an EDK pcore (provided for the Embedded Development Kit)
This option will deliver the core in the standard pcore format, suitable for directly importing into the Xilinx Embedded Development Kit (EDK) environment.
When generated in this format, the core is designed to interface to the XPS LocalLink
When generated in this format, page 2 of the GUI is not available; the “PLB Interface” will be configured dynamically by the EDK Xilinx Platform Studio (XPS) software.
For directory and file definitions for the two available formats, see Chapter 15, “Detailed Example Design (Standard Format)” and Chapter 16, “Detailed Example Design (EDK format).”
