Overview

The AXI Video Direct Memory Access (AXI VDMA) core is a soft Xilinx IP core that provides high-bandwidth direct memory access between memory and AXI4-Stream type video target peripherals. The core provides efficient two dimensional DMA operations with independent asynchronous read and write channel operation. Initialization, status, interrupt and management registers are accessed through an AXI4-Lite slave interface.

Key features

  • AXI4 Compliant
  • Primary AXI4 data width support of 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, and 1,024 bits
  • Primary AXI4-Stream data width support of multiples of 8 up to 1,024 bits
  • Optional Data Re-Alignment Engine
  • Optional Genlock Synchronization
  • Independent, asynchronous channel operation
  • Dynamic clock frequency change of AXI4-Stream interface clocks
  • Optional frame advance or repeat on error
  • Supports up to 32 frame buffers
  • Supports up to 64-bit address space

DMA IP Integration

There are many IP’s today . These IP’s can be simple IP’s like Timer to complex IP’s like Accelerators. In Most of the cases IP’s are Integrated in standard way. There are cases where you have the option of Integrating it differently. This goes un-noticed or unable to be implemented due to time constraints. One such IP that would be discussed in this paper is DMA . This paper tries to explain idea of Integrating Direct Memory access(DMA) and Interrupt Control Unit(ICU) differently but final implementation requires some changes in IP. There is a possibility that alternate design explained below may be already implemented.

Moving to AMBA® 5? Your AMBA® 4 IP Can Still Come With You

As SoC architectures adopt AMBA® 5 fabrics and components, many proven IP blocks still rely on AMBA® 4 or earlier interfaces. That creates a common integration problem: how do designers connect newer AMBA® 5 system components to existing IP without redesigning the IP or replacing verified blocks?
