As shown in the previous figure, only the ILKN Receiver is enabled and packet monitor enabled to verify the received data in this mode of operation. For simulation, a partner test bench is instantiated to perform the functionality of the ILKN Transmitter. This partner test bench will have an ILKN Transmitter and a packet generator to generate the test data.
Packet generator supports both packet mode and burst mode in Simplex RX. However, you must change the DATA_FLOW_MODE parameter value in the interlaken_*_segmented_lbus_pkt_gen.v file according to the Receiver mode (that is, packet or burst). For example:
- If Simplex RX is configured as packet mode, set DATA_FLOW_MODE as 1, or
- If Simplex RX is configured as burst mode, set DATA_FLOW_MODE as 0.
The following figure shows the Simplex RX mode for simulation block diagram.
