In this lab, you will learn how AXI interfaces are implemented using Vitis Model Composer. You will save the design in IP catalog format and use the resulting IP in the Vivado® IP integrator environment. Then you will see how IP integrator enhances your productively by supplying connection assistance when you use AXI interfaces.

Objectives

After completing this lab, you will be able to:

  • Implement AXI interfaces in your designs.
  • Add your design as IP in the Vivado IP catalog.
  • Connect your design in IP integrator.

Procedure

This lab has four primary parts:

  • In Step 1, you will review how AXI interfaces are implemented using Vitis Model Composer.
  • In Step 2, you will create a Vivado project for your Vitis Model Composer IP.
  • In Step 3, you will create a design in IP integrator using the Vitis Model Composer IP.
  • In Step 4, you will implement the design and generate an FPGA bitstream (the file used to program the FPGA).
