Links and Ports

Post by daleonpz »

I dont get the idea behind links and ports. I dont know how to use those terms whenever Im programming, so i need someone to explain me the difference between those two parameters and how i can define them in my program.

For example , what happen if i want to use XS1_port_32A and XS1_port_4B. If it possible?

Smaller ports override bigger ones, but you have to be careful when doing that. Links are only used to connect multiple xcore chips together or to other stuff like FPGAs and such if you make them understand the protocol.
