Table 1. Current Avalon Interfaces Supported by the Component Editor
Interface Type
Default NameDescriptionNew Interface in v7.2 Master
avalon_master or m0Defines an Avalon master port interface.
- Slave
avalon_slave or s0Defines an Avalon slave port interface.
- Tri-State Slave
avalon_tristate_slaveDefines an Avalon tri-state port interface.
- Clock Input
clock or clock_sinkDefines a clock and reset input interface for a component.
Y Clock Output
clock_sourceDefines a clock and reset output interface for components that generate clocks for SOPC Builder systems.
Y Conduit Output or Input
conduit_start or conduit_endUsed for exporting signals to the top level of SOPC Builder systems. Conduit output and input interfaces are identical and imply no signal direction for the conduit interface. Conduits can contain input, output, and bidirectional signals.
Y Interrupt Sender
interrupt_senderDefines an interrupt output signal and the Avalon slave interface that is associated with generating the interrupt signal.
Y Interrupt Receiver
interrupt_receiverDefines an interrupt input signal and the Avalon master interface that is associated with receiving interrupt signals.
Y Streaming Source
avalon_streaming_sourceDefines an Avalon streaming source port interface.
Y Streaming Sink
avalon_streaming_sinkDefines an Avalon streaming sink port interface.
