Lesson 1 - Design Creation Basics
Adding the System Generator Token
Every System Generator diagram requires that at least one System Generator token be placed on the diagram. This
token is not connected to anything but serves to drive the FPGA implementation process. The property editor for
this token allows you to specify the target netlist, device, performance targets and system period. System Generator
will issue an error if this token is absent.
