I want to connect two different ips in platform designer tool like core and AVMM ?

Question

I am using Platform designer tool in the quartus prime software and i want to connect two ips , like connect to peripherals and AVMM . I need an interconnect between the two which can talk to the core (for instance RISC core interface to the avmm interface).

I saw qsys interconnect and it can do the work

(Qsysinterconnect is a high-bandwidth structure for connecting components, and that allows you to connect IP cores to other IP cores with various interfaces. Qsys supports standard Avalon® , AMBA® AXI3™ (version 1.0), AMBA AXI4™ (version 2.0), and AMBA APB™ 3 (version 1.0) interfaces.)

I am trying to find the equivalent ip in the library , any other equivalent ip that you can suggest which can do the work for above mentioned task.

Please do let me know at the earliest.

With regards,

Brajesh

It's really not clear what you are looking for.  Are you saying you have a custom design that you want to connect to other components in a Platform Designer system (hasn't been called Qsys for like 8 years now)?  If so, your design needs to support one of the interface standards you list.

Any other equivalent for qsys we can use as ip in the platform designer tool?

I just need an interconnect from the ip catalog which can work as interface between avalon interface and any interface from the core.

A bridge per say connecting two ips.

Please help me in this .

Still not clear what you are looking for.  Platform Designer builds an interconnect when you generate a system.  If you are saying that you want to connect something outside a PD system to components inside a PD system (without turning it into a custom component to connect directly inside PD), you can export an interface (like Avalon memory-mapped) out of the system and connect it to something through standard HDL instantiation using the generated instantiation template created by PD.

Actually,I have a ibex core and other peripheral IP's to connect with different interfaces. Please let me know the name of interconnect IP in Platform Design tool to facilitate connection of different IP peripherals with various interfaces.

There’s no such thing. Your component must support the standard interfaces supported by PD, such as Avalon memory-mapped or AXI.
