The example design covered in this section is a wrapper that configures a group of transceivers for use in a XAUI application. Guidelines are also given for incorporating the wrapper in a design and for the expected behavior in operation. For detailed information, see Example Design.
The XAUI example design consists of these components:
•A single transceiver wrapper implementing a four-lane XAUI port using four transceivers.
•A demonstration test bench to drive the example design in simulation.
•An example design providing clock signals and connecting an instance of the XAUI wrapper with modules to drive and monitor the wrapper in hardware, including optional Vivado Design Suite debug feature tools support.
•Scripts to synthesize and simulate the example design.
The Wizard example design has been tested with Vivado Design Suite 2014.3 for synthesis and QuestaSim 10.2a for simulation.
This Figure shows a block diagram of the default XAUI example design.
