Xilinx System Generator v2.1 Reference Guide

About This Manual

This document is a reference guide for system designers who are unfamiliar with the System Generator v2.1 and the Xilinx Blockset.

Manual Contents

This guide covers the following topics:

Chapter 1, Introduction, gives a high-level overview of the System Generator and its uses.

Chapter 2, Xilinx Blockset Overview, describes the Xilinx Blockset: how to instantiate a Xilinx block within your Simulink model, how to configure it through its block parameters dialog box, the common options that can be used in several of the blocks, and the nature of the signals used in the System Generator software.

Chapter 3, Xilinx Blocks, describes the details of each block, including options, and use of Xilinx LogiCOREs™. This chapter also tells where to find descriptions of the cores on your computer.

Chapter 4, System Generator Software Features, describes the System Generator software and gives tips for using it to create efficient hardware designs.

Chapter 5, Using the Xilinx Software, tells, step-by-step, how to use System Generator as a front-end to the Xilinx Foundation 4.1i ISE software, from VHDL to bitstream generation.

Chapter 6, Auxiliary Files, contains instructions for accessing System Generator demo designs, as well as a list of Perl scripts that are delivered with the System Generator software. The demo designs show examples of designs using Xilinx blocks. The scripts are used by the System Generator to create auxiliary project files, but can also be used as stand-alone tools.
