Getting Started with the Connectivity Targeted Reference Design
Demo
The Virtex-6 FPGA Connectivity Kit comes with a pre-built demonstration of the
Virtex-6 FPGA Connectivity Targeted Reference Design (TRD) available on Platform Flash.
The demo can be run before any additional tools are installed for an overview of the
features of the ML605 Evaluation Board using a connectivity targeted reference design in
the Virtex-6 LX240T FPGA.
Board and Connectivity Targeted Reference Design Features
The Virtex-6 FPGA Connectivity TRD (see Figure 1) demonstrates the main integrated
components in a Virtex-6 FPGA. The Integrated Endpoint Block for PCI Express and GTX
transceivers work together in an application with additional IP cores, such as a Northwest
Logic Packet DMA engine for the PCI Express interface, XAUI LogiCORE™ IP, and
Memory controller IP generated using the Memory Interface Generator (MIG).
