Versal™ ACAPs no longer require the generation of IBERT IP as the necessary logic required to use in-system. Serial I/O debug is now integrated into the GTY transceiver architecture. Any design that uses the GTY transceivers can be used for Serial I/O hardware debugging. The Versal Serial I/O hardware debugging flow has two distinct phases:
- Design creation. Customizing and generating a design that uses the device's GTY transceivers, typically using the Versal ACAP transceivers wizard.
- Serial I/O analysis. Interacting with the GTY transceivers in the design using the Vivado® Hardware Manager to debug and verify issues in your high-speed serial I/O links.
Note:
Versal IBERT can use internal pattern generators such as PRBS and user
data from the design. For this reason the In-System IBERT core is not supported for
Versal devices. To gain functionality similar to In-System IBERT
change the pattern to user data.
