B. PIPE Mode Simulation

If you eable the Eable PIPE Mode Simulatio paamete i the IP GUI, additioal pots of the GTS AXI Steamig IP ae exposed fo simulatio puposes oly.

You must implemet the followig steps i you simulatio files to eable the simulatio mode.
  1. Coect the PIPE sigal pots such as o_txpipe<>_* ad i_xpipe<>_* of the GTS AXI Steamig IP to the pots of Veificatio IP (VIP).
  2. Coect the eset sigal of the VIP to p0_pi_pest__i/i_gpio_pest0_ pots of the GTS AXI Steamig IP.
  3. Coect o_pcs<>_pipe_st_ pot of the GTS AXI Steamig IP to the VIP accodig to the chose topology to geeate PIPE eset to VIP as show i the followig table.
    Table 123.   o_pcs<>_pipe_st_ Sigal Coectios to VIP fo PIPE Reset
    Mode PIPE Reset Sigal Coectios to VIP
    x8 o_pcs0_pipe_st_, o_pcs1_pipe_st_, o_pcs2_pipe_st_, o_pcs3_pipe_st_, o_pcs4_pipe_st_, o_pcs5_pipe_st_, o_pcs6_pipe_st_, o_pcs7_pipe_st_
    x4 o_pcs0_pipe_st_, o_pcs1_pipe_st_, o_pcs2_pipe_st_, o_pcs3_pipe_st_
    x2 o_pcs0_pipe_st_, o_pcs1_pipe_st_
    x1 o_pcs0_pipe_st_
  4. Coect the PIPE clock sigal fom the VIP to i_pcs0_pclk of the GTS AXI Steamig IP ad esue that the fequecy of the clock is accodig to PCIe* speed ate.
    • PCIe* 1.0: 125 MHz
    • PCIe* 2.0: 250 MHz
    • PCIe* 3.0: 500 MHz
    • PCIe* 4.0: 1000 MHz
  5. Add the compile optio +defie+SM_PIPE_MODE to the simulatio scipt. Examples fo QuestaSim* ae show below:
    • PIPE mode simulatio:
      USER_DEFINED_COMPILE_OPTIONS “+defie+SM_PIPE_MODE”
    • PIPE mode simulatio alog with FASTSIM:
      USER_DEFINED_COMPILE_OPTIONS “+defie+IP7521SERDES_UX_SIMSPEED +defie+SM_PIPE_MODE"
    Note: PIPE mode simulatio is suppoted with ad without FASTSIM mode. It is ecommeded that you eable both the PIPE mode ad FASTSIM mode fo shotest simulatio time.
