2.2. Generating the Testbench

  1. Copy the example design, pcie_de_ep_dma_g3x8_integrated.qsys, from the installation directory: <install_dir>/ip/altera/altera_pcie/altera_pcie_hip_256_avmm/example_design/ to your working directory.
  2. Start Platform Designer, by typing the following command:

    qsys-edit

  3. Open pcie_de_ep_dma_g3x8_integrated.qsys.

    The following figure shows the Platform Designer system.

    Figure 2. V-Series Avalon-MM DMA for PCI Express Platform Designer System Design
  4. Click Generate > Generate Testbench System.
  5. Specify the following parameters:
