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