Description

rx_st_valid

Output

Clocks

rx_st_data

into the Application Layer. Deasserts within

2 clocks of

rx_st_ready

deassertion and reasserts within 2 clocks

of

rx_st_ready

assertion if more data is available to send.

For 256-bit data, when you turn on Enable multiple packets per

cycle, bit 0 applies to the entire bus

rx_st_data[255:0]

. Bit 1 is

not used.

rx_st_err[<n>-1:0]

Output

Indicates that there is an uncorrectable error correction coding

(ECC) error in the internal RX buffer. Active when ECC is

enabled. ECC is automatically enabled by the Quartus II

assembler. ECC corrects single-bit errors and detects double-bit

errors on a per byte basis.
When an uncorrectable ECC error is detected,

rx_st_err

is

asserted for at least 1 cycle while

rx_st_valid

is asserted.

For 256-bit data, when you turn on Enable multiple packets per

cycle, bit 0 applies to the entire bus

rx_st_data[255:0]

. Bit 1 is

not used.
Altera recommends resetting the Arria 10 Hard IP for PCI

Express when an uncorrectable double-bit ECC error is detected.

Attention: If you instantiate this IP core as a separate component from the Quartus II IP Catalog, the

Message pane reports the following warning messages:

pcie_a10.pcie_a10_hip_0.tx.st Interface must have an associated reset
pcie_a10.pcie_a10_hip_0.rx.st Interface must have an associated reset

You can safely ignore these warnings because the IP core has a dedicated hard reset pin that is

not part of the Avalon-ST TX or RX interface.

Description

rx_st_mask

Input

The Application Layer asserts this signal to tell the Hard IP to

stop sending non-posted requests. This signal can be asserted at

any time. The total number of non-posted requests that can be

transferred to the Application Layer after

rx_st_mask

is asserted

is not more than 10.
