LogiCORE IP PLBV46 to AXI
Bridge (v2.01.a)
Product Specification
Introduction
The Processor Local Bus (PLB v4.6) to Advanced Micro-
controller Bus Architecture (AMBA®) Advanced eXten-
sible Interface (AXI) Bridge translates PLBV46
transactions into AXI4 transactions. It functions as a
slave on the PLBV46 and as a master on the AXI4. The
PLBV46 to AXI Bridge main use model is to connect the
AXI slaves with PLB masters.
Features
The Xilinx® PLBV46 to AXI Bridge is a soft Intellectual
Property (IP) core with the following features:
PLBV46 Slave Interface
• Connects as a 32/64-bit slave on PLB v4.6 buses of
32, 64 or 128 bits
• Supports 1:1 (PLB:AXI) synchronous clock ratio
• Supports access by 32, 64-bit PLB masters
• Supports Xilinx simplified PLBv46 protocol
• Single transfers of 1 to 8 bytes
• Optional line transfers of 4 and 8 words
• Optional Fixed length burst transfers of 2 to 16
data beats of words and double words
• Supports optional two levels of address pipelining
• Supports split bus architecture (simultaneous read
and write operations)
• Supports optional PLB status/interrupt registers
and generates interrupts
• Supports optional low latency PLB Point-to-Point
topology
• Supports 1 to 4 address ranges with selectable
cache encoding and protection unit support
AXI Master Interface
• Connects as a 32/64-bit master on 32/64-bit AXI4
interface
• Connects as a 32-bit master on 32-bit AXI4-Lite
interface
• Support burst transfers of 1 to 32 words or 1 to 16
double words of INCR type and burst transfers of
4 and 8 only of WRAP type
• Supports optional generation of two outstanding
addresses and supports out-of-order read
transaction completion and out-of-order write
transaction completion
• Supports optional limited cache encoding
(cacheable/bufferable) and limited protection unit
support (secure/non-secure)
