This reference design uses Xilinx's CoreConnect PLBv46 bus to connect the AES G3 core to a MicroBlaze embedded processor.  Xilinx's PowerPC 440 cores provided in Virtex 5 chips use the same PLBv46 bus as the MicroBlaze.  The design runs on the Xilinx Spartan 3A development kit and demonstrates the AES-G3 core interfaced to a MicroBlaze processor to accelerate AES encryption.
