.
AXI Interconnectivity
The primary data path of the platform consists of AXI memory-mapped access from the
host (using an XDMA IP instance) to all global memory (using individual DDR4 IP instances),
and from the user kernels to user-defined regions of global memory. High-performance
data path connectivity is implemented using five instances of AXI SmartConnect IP, with the
topology previously described in
Sparse Memory Connectivity in Chapter 2
.
Contained within the interconnect sub-hierarchy of the reconfigurable expanded region as
shown in
Figure 3-12
, the five SmartConnect IP instances together provide both the host
and the user kernels with high-performance access to the four DDR4 IP memory controllers.
