1.2. Directory Structure

The Low Latency E-Tile 40G Ethernet IP core design example file directories contain the following generated files for the design example.

Figure 4. Directory Structure for the Generated Design Example
  • The simulation files (testbench for simulation only) are located in <design_example_dir>/example_testbench.
  • The compilation-only example design is located in <design_example_dir>/compilation_test_design.
  • The hardware configuration and test files (the hardware design example) are located in <design_example_dir>/hardware_test_design.
