Qsys delivers the highest flexibility by automatically handling the bridging between multiple interface standards. The hierarchical design flow in Qsys allows designers to easily manage each sub-system while giving them the ability to add additional sub-systems to the design with minimal impact on system performance. Using hierarchy, designers can divide large FPGA designs that include a high number of IP cores or system components into smaller sub-systems.

Customers can download the reference design from the Qsys page of Altera's Web site at Qsys enables designers to develop large, scalable systems with a hierarchical design flow feature. The reference design demonstrates how an Altera-provided PCIe IP core saves months of development time by eliminating the need to develop Transaction Layer Packet (TLP) encoding/decoding logic and by simplifying PCIe protocol interface complexity.
The design uses an automatically pipelined, NoC-based interconnect to packetize data for easier and faster transport. The reference design achieves throughput of over 1,400MB/s between a memory-mapped PCIe Gen2 x4 Endpoint and an external DDR3 memory. To demonstrate the capabilities of the high-performance interconnect in version 11.0, Altera offers a PCIe ® to DDR3 reference design built using Qsys. Qsys uses a NoC-based interconnect to deliver higher performance systems compared to conventional bus and switch fabric architectures. Qsys improves system scalability for large FPGA designs and enables support for industry standard interfaces (Avalon and AMBA ® AXI™ from ARM ®, etc). The new Qsys tool features the industry’s first FPGA-optimized network-on-a-chip (NoC)-based interconnect delivering up to 2X higher interconnect performance compared to SOPC Builder. Version 11.0 features the production release of Altera's next-generation system integration tool, Qsys.
