Introduction
============
PeakRDL-busdecoder is a free and open-source control & status register (CSR) compiler.
This code generator translates your SystemRDL register description into
a synthesizable SystemVerilog RTL module that can be easily instantiated into
your hardware design.
PeakRDL-BusDecoder is a free and open-source bus decoder generator for hierarchical register address maps.
This code generator translates your SystemRDL register description into a synthesizable
SystemVerilog RTL module that decodes CPU interface transactions and routes them to
multiple sub-address spaces (child addrmaps). This is particularly useful for:
* Generates fully synthesizable SystemVerilog RTL (IEEE 1800-2012)
* Options for many popular CPU interface protocols (AMBA APB, AXI4-Lite, and more)
* Configurable pipelining options for designs with fast clock rates.
* Creating hierarchical register maps with multiple sub-components
* Splitting a single CPU interface bus to serve multiple independent register blocks
* Organizing large register designs into logical sub-address spaces
* Implementing address decode logic for multi-drop bus architectures
The generated bus decoder provides:
* Fully synthesizable SystemVerilog RTL (IEEE 1800-2012)
* Support for many popular CPU interface protocols (AMBA APB, AXI4-Lite, and more)
* Address decode logic that routes transactions to child address maps
* Configurable pipelining options for designs with fast clock rates
* Broad support for SystemRDL 2.0 features
