Channel address decoder Decodes the addresses of the components in each Ethernet channel, such as PHY and LL 10GbE MAC.
Multi-channel address decoder Decodes the addresses of the components used by all channels , such as the Master ToD module.
Top address decoder Decodes the addresses of the top-level components, such as the Traffic Controller.
Transceiver Reset Controller The Transceiver PHY Reset Controller Intel® Stratix® 10 FPGA IP. Resets the transceiver.
ATX PLL Generates a TX serial clock for the Intel® Stratix® 10 transceiver.
Core fPLL Generates clocks for all design components.
Design Components for the IEEE 1588v2 Feature
ToD Sampling fPLL Generates the clocks for the 1588 design components.
Master TOD The master TOD for all channels.
TOD Synch Synchronizes the master TOD to all local TODs.
Local TOD The TOD for each channel.
Master PPS The master PPS. Returns pulse per second (pps) for all channels.
PPS The slave PPS. Returns pulse per second (pps) for each channel.
PTP Packet Classifier Decodes the packet type of incoming PTP packets and returns the decoded information to the LL 10GbE MAC Intel® FPGA IP.
