Chapter 3
Quick Start Example Design
This chapter provides instructions to generate a CAN core quickly, run the design through
implementation with the Xilinx tools, and simulate the example design using the provided
demonstration test bench. See the example design in Chapter 4, “Detailed Example
Design.”
Overview
Figure 3-1 illustrates the CAN example design.
The CAN example design consists of the following:
• CAN netlist
• HDL wrapper which instantiates the CAN netlist
• Customizeable demonstration test bench to simulate the example design
The CAN example design has been tested with Xilinx ISE
®
software v12.1 and the Mentor
Graphics ModelSim v6.5c simulator.
