Description

The BRC1 LP-Serial Streaming Endpoint Core implements a complete RapidIO endpoint core capable of supporting link rates of up to 5.0 Gbps per lane. It includes functions that allow the endpoint to be managed with or without a local processor. Figure 1 illustrates the overall architecture of the core.

 

The core integrates a streaming sink block that maps
AXI4-Stream transactions into RapidIO Type 9 request
packets. The streaming source block maps RapidIO
Type 9 request packets to AXI4-Stream transactions.

 

The HARSH profile support provide a range of
features that support the creation of high availability
systems. This includes MECS timestamp synchronization
that coordinates timing functions across the system
with nano-second accuracy. The error management
functions provide detailed traceability of system level
errors along with optional error timestamping to assist
with error analysis.
