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.

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.
The Zynq All Programmable SoC, in tandem with new Xilinx tools and IP, forms the foundation for the next generation of embedded vision products.
Xilinx's Zynq-7000 Extensible Processing Platform family mates a dual ARM Cortex-A9 MPCore processor-based system with programmable logic and hardened IP.
This article outlines the major differences between DDR3 and DDR2 SDRAM architecture and reviews them in the context of an FPGA-based reference design tested in hardware at 800 Mbps.
This tutorial details a scalable, auto-sensing bidirectional multiplexer-based CPLD-based design that allows host devices to support any number of SD devices.
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.
