DexterLab CommandParser – AXI‑Full Edition

Overview

The DexterLab Parser AXI‑Full Edition integrates the DexterLab command parser with a complete AXI‑FULL backend. It enables multi‑beat burst transactions, full AXI handshake compliance, and a unified command‑driven interface for complex bus operations.

This edition provides a stable, production‑ready backend implementation suitable for simulation, verification, and integration into AXI‑based systems.

Architecture

The AXI‑Full Edition extends the DexterLab parser core with a backend capable of generating:

• Single transfers
• Multi‑beat bursts
• FIFO‑style streaming bursts
• WRAP bursts with address wrapping logic

The backend ensures correct AXI signaling:

• VALID/READY handshake
• Burst length and size management
• Write strobes and byte‑enable propagation
• Response channel handling

Simulation Environments

GHDL

Includes a lightweight, fast simulation environment for pure VHDL testing.

Vivado XSIM

Provides waveform‑level simulation with AXI bus visualization.

Both environments include:

• AXI monitor
• Simple AXI slave model
• FIFO generators
• Synchronous RAM models
