OVP Peripheral Model: SafepowerNostrumNode
Model Specific Information
This page provides introductory usage information for an Imperas OVP peripheral behavioral model.
The page is split into sections providing specific information for this peripheral,
including any ports for connecting into a platform, registers, other component parts, and configuration options and general information for peripheral modeling with Imperas OVP.
Description
The Nostrum Network on Chip (NoC) node peripheral for SafePower Project
Licensing
Open Source Apache 2.0
Limitations
This model implements the Nostrum NoC node processor interface. It does not model any timing in the transfer of messages between nodes.
Reference
Generated using the VHDL file generic_interface_to_noc_static.vhd provided as part of example December release.
Location
The NostrumNode peripheral model is located in an Imperas/OVP installation at the VLNV: safepower.ovpworld.org / peripheral / NostrumNode / 1.0.
