xxzhao Posted March 15, 2017 Report Share Posted March 15, 2017 Hi all, I'm using vendors' tool to generate register models. I wanna know how to describe one address-block is instantiated multiple times in IP-XACT. For example, there are 2~4 instances of the same DMA engine module in my testbench. Which schema can I use to describe this? The further question is how to group address blocks in IP-XACT? For example, I have a bridge-similar module BRDG(have registers) will be instantiated to more than 20 IPs of SOC. I wanna the generated uvm register model combine each BRDG with related IP in one uvm_reg_block. How to describe this in IP-XACT? Currently, i'm using script to deal with this. I want to know if IP-XACT native support this. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Weber Posted March 15, 2017 Report Share Posted March 15, 2017 I would recommend using nested "registerfile" objects within an addressBlock to contain your registers since these can be multi-dimensional arrays. We added the registerfile object in IEEE 1685-2009. You can use "bank" objects to group addressBlock objects but arrays are not supported.
