Description

in_error

error

Input

Error signal. Specifies if the input data symbol is an

error and whether the decoder can consider it as an

erasure. Erasures-supporting decoders only.

out_

startof-

packet

sop

Output

Start of packet (codeword) signal. This signal

indicates the codeword boundaries on the

in_

data[]

bus. When the IP core drives this signal

high, it indicates that the start of packet is present

on the

in_data[]

bus. The IP core asserts this

signal on the first transfer of every codeword.

out_

endofpacket

eop

Output

End of packet (codeword) signal. This signal

indicates the packet boundaries on the

in_data[]

bus. When the IP core drives this signal high, it

indicates that the end of packet is present on the

in_data[]

bus. The IP core asserts this signal on

the last transfer of every packet.

out_ready

ready

Input

Data transfer ready signal to indicate that the

downstream module is ready to accept data. The

source provides new data (if available) when you

assert the

out_ready

signal and stops providing

new data when you deassert the

out_ready

signal.

If the source is unable to provide new data, it

deasserts

out_valid

for one or more clock cycles

until it is prepared to drive valid data interface

signals.

out_valid

valid

Output

Data valid signal. The IP core asserts the

out_valid

signal high, whenever a valid output is on

out_

data

; the IP core deasserts the signal when there is

no valid output on

out_data

.

out_data

data

Output

Contains decoded output when the IP core asserts

the

out_valid

signal. The corrected symbols are in

the same order that they are entered.

out_channel

channel

Output

Specifies the channel whose result is presented at

out_data

. Available only when you configure the

IP core to support multiple channels.

out_error

error

Output

Indicates non-correctable codeword (decoder only).

Valid when the IP core asserts

out_endofpacket

.
