Hi all, 

 

I use the "Simple Socket Plus" example on my 3c120 board and made the ethernet work, but there comes a problem that how can I connect my user define logic to the ethernet? In Quartus I see a huge block when i try to add the sopc builder file in a "bdf" file, and how can I use the avalon interface? 

 

Thanks in advance!

Do you want to directly connect your logic to the Ethernet interface or do you still want to use a CPU between the two? 

You can include your own logic to a SOPC system by creating a component.

Thanks for your reply, I dont want to add my design block to the sopc builder, could you tell me how to add my block directly to the ethernet in a bdf file?

You can instantiate the TSE directly from the Megawizard and have it as an independant block in your design. The datasheet details all the signals.
