The quick start instructions provide a step-by-step procedure for generating an
Aurora 64B/66B core, implementing the core in hardware using the associated example
design, and simulating the core with the provided demonstration test bench (demo_tb). For detailed information about the example
design provided with the Aurora 64B/66B core, see Detailed Example Design.
The quick start example design consists of these components:
- An instance of the Aurora 64B/66B core generated
using the default parameters:
- Full-duplex with a single GTX transceiver
- AXI4-Stream user interface
- A top-level example design (
<user_component name>_exdes) with an XDC file to configure the core for simple data transfer operation. - A demonstration test bench to simulate two instances of the example design.
The Aurora 64B/66B example design has been tested with the Vivado Design Suite for synthesis and the Mentor Graphics QuestaSimulator (QuestaSim) for simulation.
