Hi, I am trying to use intel's PCIE Avalon MM DMA IP core. Is there a way for me to generate this core outside platform designer? Also is there an example to instantiate this dma engine without using platform designer.

trying to generate & use PCIE (HIP) along with avalon mm DMA IP for arria 10.

I am currently using the platform designer to generate the IP core and then instantiating it in my top level design.

I was curious to know why only the platform designer ip catalog shows pcie-dma ip.

In the main ip catalog (the one on right hand side of quartus main page) only the PCIE HIP core without dma is available.

Hi I think this is because Platform manager provide the auto address mapping for the avalon-mm port in PCIe, thus seldom user will need it without the Platform manager.

Yes, I think the only way is to generate the PCIe under platform manager and export the port to your top level.

Ok, thanks for the explanation.
