8. Qsys Design Example
The design example in this chapter shows you how to use Qsys to build a system that
combines a RapidIO IP core with other Qsys components. Qsys automatically
generates simulation models and HDL files that include all the specified components
and interconnections. The design example includes a testbench to simulate the Qsys
system you generate. However, this design example does not support programming
your target Altera device and verifying your design in hardware.
The Qsys design example is available only for non-Arria 10 IP core variations.
f For more information about the system interconnect fabric, refer to the Qsys
Interconnect and System Design Components chapter in volume 1 of the Quartus II
Handbook. For more information about the Qsys integration tool, refer to the System
Design with Qsys section in volume 1 of the Quartus II Handbook.
The design example explains how to use Qsys, an integral feature of the Quartus II
software, to generate a system containing the following components:
■ RapidIO IP core
■ On-Chip Memory
■ Two Master BFMs
Figure 8–1 shows a block diagram of the system you create in this chapter.
