Customizing and Generating the Core - 7.1 English

The AXI DMA can be found in the following places in the Vivado IP catalog.

• AXI_Infrastructure, Communication_&_Networking\Ethernet
• Embedded_Processing\AXI_Infrastructure\DMA

To access the AXI DMA, do the following:

1. Open an existing project or create a new project using the Vivado design tools.
2. Open the IP catalog and navigate to any of the taxonomies.
3. Double-click AXI Direct Memory Access to bring up the AXI DMA Customize IP window.

If you are customizing and generating the core in the Vivado IP integrator, see the Vivado Design Suite User Guide: Designing IP Subsystems using IP Integrator (UG994) for detailed information. IP integrator might auto-compute certain configuration values when validating or generating the design. To check whether the values do change, see the description of the parameter in this chapter. To view the parameter value, run the validate_bd_design command in the Tcl console.

For details, see the Vivado Design Suite User Guide: Designing with IP (UG896) and the Vivado Design Suite User Guide: Getting Started (UG910).
