Table 6-4: 64-, 128-, or 256‑Bit Avalon-ST TX Datapath
Signal Direction Description
tx_st_data[<n>-1:0] Input Data for transmission. Transmit data bus. Refer to the following
sections on data alignment for the 64-, 128-, and 256-bit
interfaces for the mapping of TLP packets to
tx_st_data
and
examples of the timing of this interface. When using a 64-bit
Avalon-ST bus, the width of
tx_st_d ata
is 64. When using a
128-bit Avalon-ST bus, the width of
tx_st_data
is 128 bits.
When using a 256-bit Avalon-ST bus, the width of
tx_st_data
is
256 bits. The Application Layer must provide a properly
formatted TLP on the TX interface. The mapping of message
TLPs is the same as the mapping of Transaction Layer TLPs with
4 dword headers. The number of data cycles must be correct for
the length and address fields in the header. Issuing a packet with
an incorrect number of data cycles results in the TX interface
hanging and becoming unable to accept further requests.
<n> = 64, 128, or 256.
tx_st_sop[<n>-1:0] Input Indicates first cycle of a TLP when asserted together with
tx_st_
valid
. <n> = 1 or 2.
When using a 256-bit Avalon-ST bus with Multiple packets per
cycle, bit 0 indicates that a TLP begins in tx_st_data[127:0], bit 1
indicates that a TLP begins in tx_st_data[255:128].
tx_st_eop[<n>-1:0] Input Indicates last cycle of a TLP when asserted together with
tx_st_
valid
. <n> = 1 or 2.
When using a 256-bit Avalon-ST bus with Multiple packets per
cycle, bit 0 indicates that a TLP ends with tx_st_data[127:0], bit 1
indicates that a TLP ends with tx_st_data[255:128].
