LPC Host IP

Overview

LPC HOST interface is full-featured, easy-to-use, synthesizable design, compatible with Standard LPC specification. Through its LPC compatibility, it provides a simple interface to a wide range of low-cost devices. LPC HOST IIP is proven in FPGA environment.The host interface of the LPC HOST can be simple interface or can be AMBA APB, AMBA AHB, AMBA AHB-Lite,AMBA AXI,AMBA AXI-Lite, VCI, OCP, Avalon, PLB, Tilelink,Wishbone or Custom protocol.
