Customizing and Generating the Core - 1.0 English - PG426

This section includes information about using AMD tools to customize and generate the core in the AMD Vivado™ Design Suite.

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.

You can customize the IP for use in your design by specifying values for the various parameters associated with the IP core using the following steps:

1. Select the IP from the IP catalog.
2. Double-click the selected IP or select the Customize IP command from the toolbar or right-click menu.

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

Figures in this chapter are illustrations of the Vivado IDE. The layout depicted here might vary from the current version.

To access the BSCAN Switch core core, perform the following steps:

1. Open a project by selecting File > Open Project, or create a new project by selecting File > New Project.
2. Open the IP catalog and navigate to Debug & Verification > Debug.
3. Double-click Bscan Switch to display the BSCAN Switch Customize IP dialog box, as shown in the following figure.
   Figure 1. BSCAN SWITCH View in IP Catalog

   The following figure shows the BSCAN Switch Customize IP dialog box with information about customizing ports. The configurable parameter Number of BSCAN Master Ports enables the number of master BSCAN interfaces based on the selection.

   Component Name

   The Component Name field consists of any combination of alpha-numeric characters including the underscore symbol. However, the underscore symbol cannot be the first character in the Component Name.

   Number of BSCAN Master Ports

   This user parameter enables the number of master BSCAN ports based on the requirement. The default value is '1'.
