Abstract
A core block with a highly configurable interface such that the interface of the core can be optimally configured for the system the core is integrated into. In one embodiment the method consists of defining a configurable interface with different configuration options, capturing the specific core configuration through manual entry or through the use of a Graphical User Interface, and providing for software that combines the source description of the core with the configuration data to generate the core with an optimally configured logic and circuit interface.
