Setting Up Hardware Components
The PCIe IP Prototyping Kit provide hardware and software elements required to assemble a PCIe Root
Complex, and PCIe Endpoint prototyping platforms. Designers can rapidly develop, test, and debug IP
software before SoC availability. The kit is a complete and stand-alone solution that requires minimal
configuration.
This document provides the necessary information to set up the PCIe IP Prototyping Kit.
This document is divided in the following sections:
■
“Contents of PCIe IP Prototyping Kit” on page 7
