The Bridge core is an interface between the AXI4 and the PCI Express integrated block. It contains the memory mapped AXI4 to AXI4-Stream Bridge, and the AXI4-Stream Enhanced Interface Block for PCIe. The memory mapped AXI4 to AXI4-Stream Bridge contains a register block and two functional half bridges, referred to as the Slave Bridge and Master Bridge.

  • The slave bridge connects to the AXI4 Interconnect as a slave device to handle any issued AXI4 master read or write requests.
  • The master bridge connects to the AXI4 Interconnect as a master to process the PCIe generated read or write TLPs.
  • The register block contains registers used in the Bridge core for dynamically mapping the AXI4 memory mapped (MM) address range provided using the AXIBAR parameters to an address for PCIe range.

The core uses a set of interrupts to detect and flag error conditions.
