Peripheral and Interface Components
Library dependencies
The PVBusDecoder component has no dependencies on external libraries.
5.2.3 PVBusMaster component
The PVBusMaster component acts as a source for all transactions over the PVBus. If you want
a component to act as a bus master, instantiate a PVBusMaster subcomponent and then use its
control port to create one or more transaction generators to generate transactions on the bus.
Figure 5-3 shows a view of the component in System Canvas.
This component is written in C++.

Ports
Table 5-3 provides a brief description of the PVBusMaster ports.
Name Port protocol Type Description
Table 5-3 PVBusMaster ports
pvbus_m PVBus Master Sends out generated transactions.
control PVTransactionMaster Slave Enables the owning component to
instantiate pv::TransactionGenerator
objects. See PVTransactionMaster
protocol.
PVTransactionMaster protocol
The PVBusMaster component has one additional protocol.
This protocol is used to instantiate a pv::TransactionGenerator object from a PVBusMaster:
createTransactionGenerator( ) : pv::TransactionGenerator *
Instantiates a new transaction generator to control this bus master. A caller can
allocate as many TransactionGenerators as it wants. It is up to the caller to delete
TransactionGenerators when they are no longer needed. For example:
behavior init() {
tg = master.createTransactionGenerator();
}
behavior destroy() {
delete tg;
}
Parameters
The PVBusMaster component has no parameters.
