Parameter

Value

Description

Application Interface

width

64-bit

128-bit
256-bit

Specifies the data width for the Application Layer to

Transaction Layer interface. Refer to Application Layer

Clock Frequency for All Combinations of Link Width,

Data Rate and Application Layer Interface Widths for all

legal combinations of data width, number of lanes,

Application Layer clock frequency, and data rate. The

Avalon-MM with DMA interface does not support the

64-bit interface width.

Avalon-MM address

width

32, 64

Specifies the address width for Avalon-MM RX master

ports that access Avalon-MM slaves in the Avalon

address domain. When you select 32-bit addresses, the

PCI Express Avalon-MM bridge performs address

translation. When you specify 64-bits addresses, no

address translation is performed in either direction. The

destination address specified is forwarded to the

Avalon-MM interface without any changes.
For the Avalon-MM interface with DMA, this value

must be set to 64.

Enable completer-only

Endpoint

On/Off

In this mode, the Hard IP can receive requests, but

cannot initiate upstream requests. However, it can

transmit completion packets on the PCI Express TX

link. This mode removes the Avalon-MM TX slave port

and thereby reduces logic utilization.

Enable completer-only

Endpoint with 4-byte

payload

On/Off

This is a non-pipelined version of Completer Only

mode. At any time, only a single request can be

outstanding. Single dword completer uses fewer

resources than completer only Endpoint. This variant

is targeted for systems that require simple read and

write register accesses from a host CPU. If you select

this option, the width of the data for RXM BAR masters

is always 32 bits, regardless of the Avalon-MM width.
For the Avalon-MM interface with DMA, this value

must be Off .
