FreeAHB (Experimental)

Author: Revanth Kamaraj ([email protected])

This repository currently provides an AHB 2.0 Master. Icarus Verilog 10.0 or higher is required to simulate the design.

Features of the AHB master:

• Bursts are done using a combination of INCR16/INCR8/INCR4 and INCR.
• Supports slaves with SPLIT/RETRY capability.

To run simulations:

• Source the source_it.csh file in scripts. Set the paths in the script correctly.
• Execute the run_sim.csh file in scripts. A VVP file will be generated in the scratch folder. Execute it using vvp.

NOTE: If you define X_INJECTION, the bench will run with data being made x when invalid (dav=0) to ensure a more robust design test (x-injection). If you do not define X_INJECTION, the bench will make data = 0 when data valid = 0. It is recommended that you use x injection when testing the design for a more robust test.

NOTE: While the master design is complete, it should be treated as very experimental in its current form.
