Design modules that are developed using System Generator usually form a Subsystem of a larger DSP or Video system. These System Generator modules are typically algorithmic and data path heavy modules that are best created in the visually-rich environment like MATLAB/Simulink. The larger system is typically assembled from IP from the Vivado® IP catalog. These IP typically use standard stream and control interfaces like AXI4-Lite Slave and the larger system is typically assembled using a tool like the Vivado IP integrator.

This topic describes features in System Generator that allow you to create a standard AXI4-Lite Slave interface for a System Generator module and then export the module to the Vivado® IP catalog for later inclusion in a larger design using IP integrator. System Generator also allows creation of multiple AXI4-Lite Slave interfaces across multiple clock domains.
