The following shows how to generate a transaction for each mode:
- To generate a transaction for the AXI master VIP, see the mst_stimulus.sv from any of the 10 simulation sets in Table 1.
- To generate a transaction response for a basic AXI slave VIP, see the slv_basic_stimulus.sv from any of the 10 simulation sets in Table 1. For memory model requirements, see the mem_basic_stimulus.sv.
- To generate a transaction response for an advanced AXI slave VIP, see the slv_stimulus.sv from any of the 10 simulation sets in Table 1. For memory model requirements, see the mem_stimulus.sv.
- To generate a transaction for the AXI pass-through VIP, see the passthrough_mst_stimulus.sv from any of the simulation sets in Table 1.
- To generate a transaction response for a basic AXI pass-through VIP, see the passthrough_slv_basic_stimulus.sv from any of the simulation sets in Table 1. For memory model requirements, see the passthrough_mem_basic_stimulus.sv.
- To generate a transaction response for an advanced AXI pass-through VIP, see the passthrough_slv_stimulus.sv from any of the simulation sets in Table 1. For memory model requirements, see the passthrough_mem_stimulus.sv.
- When you open the AXI VIP example design under the Sources window, it shows 11 simulation sets. You can choose any simulation sets and run simulation or view the source codes of each test bench.
