Design AXI Master IP using Vivado HLS tool

IPs based on advanced algorithms is the need for applications like wireless, medical, defense and consumer. In such scenarios, Vivado® High-Level Synthesis (HLS) accelerates creation of IPs by enabling C, C++ or System C based specifications to be directly targeted to Xilinx All Programmable devices without the need of manually developing RTL code.

This paper concludes with:

• Usage of Vivado® HLS in creating AXI Master IP and its advantages.
• Steps used in Vivado® HLS to implement AXI master.
• The AXI Master block is useful in transferring data from FPGA fabric to ARM-based processor system and contribute significantly in improving the performance of the HEVC Decoder on Zynq.
