  • The APIs in L2 are 2 sets, tool box Graphs and All in AIE Graphs (naming with graph_*).
  • The APIs in L1/L2 support x86sim/aiesim flow and are oriented to module-level design that test in L2/tests.
  • Meanwhile, L2 cases of tool box (apodization/delay/focusing/image-points/interpolator/samples/_sa) also support board-level acceleratins.
  • The APIs in L3 are based on Vitis flow and are designed for board-level accelerations.
  • There are 4 L3 cases. Scanline_AllinAIE is developed with All in AIE method. PW/SA/Scanline are developed with tool box method.
