WR Streamers provide the user with a FIFO-like interface over Ethernet
(See figure below). WR Streamers comprises VHDL modules to ensure data
communication as well statistics on transceiver performance.
Wr Streamers come included as of Release 4 of the
WRPC, instantiated inside the
xwrc_board_common.vhd module. They can be enabled by setting the @
g_fabric_iface@ generic to
STREAMERS
.
