LogiCORE IP Mailbox

Mailbox features a bi-directional communication channel between two processors.

Overview

Mailbox features a bi-directional communication channel between two processors. The Mailbox can be connected to the processor either through a PLBv46, AXI4-Lite, AXI4-Stream, or FSL interface. The PLBv46 interface option is available for the MicroBlaze™ processor, PowerPC® processor, or any other PLBv46 master. The AXI4-Lite, AXI4-Stream, and FSL options are available for connection to any IP that supports them, for example MicroBlaze.

Key features

  • Supports AXI4-Lite, AXI4-Stream, PLB v4.6 and FSL independently on each of the ports
  • Configurable depth of mailbox
  • Configurable interrupt thresholds and maskable interrupts
  • Configurable synchronous or asynchronous operation
  • Bi-directional communication

Designing FPGA Based Reliable Systems Using Virtex-5 System Monitor

The fast track development and 24x7 operations have put tremendous pressure on the servers, networking systems and communication equipments. It has become necessary that these systems should operate reliably irrespective of the change in external operating environment like the temperature, humidity, and power fluctuations or, on chip conditions like on-chip temperature, internal voltage levels etc. Measuring the reliability of these physical systems is must for every operational unit.

Designing with Virtex-5 Embedded Tri-Mode Ethernet MACs

In this article, we’ll review the feature set of Ethernet MAC blocks in Virtex-5 devices. We’ll also describe the differences between Virtex-5 and Virtex-4 FX Ethernet MACs, illustrate some potential applications, and describe how to use standard Xilinx tools to integrate an Ethernet MAC into your design.
