EDK IP core to recieve signal from ISE entity

Hello,

I'm searching for a way to design a custom IP core attached to the microblaze's PLB that can recieve (and interface) a signal generated by an entity created in ISE.

 

To accomplish this, I started an ISE project and programmed an entity which sends a two state signal as output, and then added an EDK source to the ISE project. Within the ISE project, i created the microblaze and its default cores using the BSB wizard. Next, i created the custom core and set an input port in user_logic (FEDATA_ACK : in STD_LOGIC;), however when i'm importing the created custom core (in EDK) with a very simple user logic written, i get an error in the import peripheral wizard:

 

ERROR:HDLParsers:851 -
   "C:/Development/CFtestsISE/CFtest/core/pcores/fe_in_controller_v1_00_a/hdl/vh
   dl/fe_in_controller.vhd" Line 707. Formal FEDATA_ACK of entity with no
   default value must be associated with an actual value.
ERROR:MDT - Parse Errors encountered in HDL source
WARNING:MDT - Unable to delete temparary project file
   C:\Development\CFtestsISE\CFtest\core\pcores\fe_in_controller.prj : 13

 

It complaints that i have to have an associated value with FEDATA_ACK, which in my case I want it to be the output of the ISE created entity. How can i make such interface?

 

Sorry about the double post in implementation section; i was not shure where to post this doubt.

Best,

JM

Hi JM,

 

Just check the obvious, did you add that port to the top level as well (fe_in_controller.vhd)?
