Coregen GMII embedded ethernet MAC

Oct 12, 2006 1 Replies

I have been trying to implement Virtex-4 Tri-Mode Embedded Ethernet MAC Wrapper v4.3(GMII) from coregen in ISE. All guides tell me to use a VHO- file, which should contain an instantiation template, but coregen doesn't create such template file for this core. And the template in ISE is blank. I should also get an edn or ngc netlist file which isn't there either.



The user guide specifies that I should use the "v4_emac_v4_3.vhd" as instantiation template, but that file is the lowest level wrapper, which means that it doesn't include the GMII interface and clock generators that resides in the higher layer wrappers.



Which files do I need from the generated coregen library?


Any help or comment is highly appreciated!

Hi,

all you need is under the folder "example_design". There is the top module and an example for instantiation and under physical you have the parts for the mgt's ... Birger
