Fast Simplex Link (FSL) Interface Description
The Fast Simplex Link bus provides a point-to-point communication channel between an
output FIFO and an input FIFO. For details on the generic FSL protocol please refer to the
“Fast Simplex Link (FSL) bus” data sheet (DS449).
Master FSL Signal Interface
MicroBlaze may contain up to 8 master FSL interfaces. The master signals are depicted in
Table 2-6.
Slave FSL Signal Interface
MicroBlaze may contain up to 8 slave FSL interfaces. The slave FSL interface signals are
depicted in Table 2-7.
