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 4.0 of the WR PTP
Core, instantiated inside the
xwrc_board_common.vhd module. They can be enabled by setting the @
g_fabric_iface@ generic to
STREAMERS
.
