RapidIO EndPoint Controller IP
Overview
RapidIO EP interface provides full support for the RapidIO EP synchronous serial interface, compatible with RapidIO Interconnect 2.2 specification. Through its RapidIO EP compatibility, it provides a simple interface to a wide range of low-cost devices. RapidIO EP IIP is proven in FPGA environment. The host interface of the RapidIO EP can be simple interface or can be AMBA APB, AMBA AHB, AMBA AXI, VCI, OCP, Avalon, PLB, Tilelink, Wishbone or Custom protocol.
