Aperture_Base_Address_n
represents
Aperture Base Address
of nth BAR in GUI
Aperture_High_Address_n
represents
Aperture High Address
of nth BAR in GUI
AXI to PCIe Translation_n
represents
AXI to PCIe_translation
of nth BAR in GUI
Aperture_Base_Address n
and Aperture_High_Address_n
are used to calculate the size of
the AXI BAR n and during address translation to
PCIe address.
-
Aperture_Base_Address_n
provides the low address where AXI BAR n starts and will be regarded as address offset 0x0 when the address is translated. -
Aperture_High_Address_n
is the high address of the last valid byte address of AXI BAR n. (For more details on how the address gets translated, see Address Translation.)
The difference between Aperture_Base_Address_n
and Aperture_High_Address_n
is your AXI BAR n size.
These values must be set accordingly such that the AXI BAR n
size is a power of two and must have at least 4K.
When a packet is sent to the core (outgoing PCIe packets), the packet must have an address that is in the range of
Aperture_Base_Address_n
and Aperture_High_Address_n
. Any packet that is received by the core that has
an address outside of this range will be responded to with a SLVERR. When the IP
integrator is used, these parameters are derived from the Address Editor tab within the
IP integrator. The Address Editor sets the AXI
Interconnect as well as the core so the address range matches, and the packet is routed
to the core only when the packet has an address within the valid range.
AXI Address width is limited to 48 bits.
