Description

Width

I/O

Signal

A transmit interface signal. Assert this
signal to indicate that a timestamp is
obtained and a timestamp request is valid
for the particular frame.

Assert this signal in the same clock cycle
as the start of packet (

avalon_st_tx_

startofpacket

is asserted).

1

O

tx_egress_timestamp_96b_valid

Configurable width fingerprint that returns
with correlated timestamps.

The signal width is determined by the
TSTAMP_FP_WIDTH parameter (default
parameter value is 4).

n

O

tx_egress_timestamp_96b_

fingerprint

A transmit interface signal. This signal
requests timestamp of frames on the TX
path. The timestamp is used to calculate
the residence time.

Consists of 48-bit nanoseconds field and
16-bit fractional nanoseconds field.

64

O

tx_egress_timestamp_64b_data

A transmit interface signal. Assert this
signal to indicate that a timestamp is
obtained and a timestamp request is valid
for the particular frame.

Assert this signal in the same clock cycle
as the start of packet (

avalon_st_tx_

startofpacket

or

avalon_st_tx_

startofpacket_n

is asserted).

1

O

tx_egress_timestamp_64b_valid

Configurable width fingerprint that returns
with correlated timestamps.

The signal width is determined by the
TSTAMP_FP_WIDTH parameter (default
parameter value is 4).
