L*32

Input

Indicates a 32-bit user data at txlink_clk clock rate, where four octets are packed into a 32-bit data width per lane. The data format is big endian.

The first octet is located at bit[31:24], followed by bit[23:16], bit[15:8], and the last octet is bit[7:0]. Lane 0 data is always located in the lower 32-bit data. If more than one lane is instantiated, lane 1 is located at bit[63:32], with the first octet position at bit[63:56].

1

Input

Indicates whether the data from the transport layer is valid or invalid. The Avalon® streaming sink interface in the TX core cannot be backpressured and assumes that data is always valid on every cycle when the jesd204_tx_link_ready signal is asserted.

• 0—data is invalid
• 1—data is valid

1

Output

Indicates that the Avalon® streaming sink interface in the TX core is ready to accept data. The Avalon® streaming sink interface asserts this signal on the JESD204B link state of USER_DATA phase. The ready latency is 0.

1

Input

The Avalon® memory-mapped interface clock signal. This clock is asynchronous to all the functional clocks in the JESD204B IP core. The JESD204B IP core can handle any cross clock ratio and therefore the clock frequency can range from 75 MHz to 125 MHz.

1

Input

This reset is associated with the jesd204_tx_avs_clk signal. This reset is an active low signal. You can assert this reset signal asynchronously but must deassert it synchronously to the jesd204_tx_avs_clk signal. After you deassert this signal, the CPU can configure the CSRs.

1

Input

When this signal is present, the slave port ignores all Avalon® memory-mapped signals unless this signal is asserted. This signal must be used in combination with read or write. If the Avalon® memory-mapped bus does not support chip select, you are recommended to tie this port to 1.

8

Input

For Avalon® memory-mapped slave, the interconnect translates the byte address into a word address in the address space so that each slave access is for a word of data. For example, address = 0 selects the first word of the slave and address = 1 selects the second word of the slave.

32

Input

32-bit data for write transfers. The width of this signal and the jesd204_tx_avs_readdata[31:0] signal must be the same if both signals are present

1

Input

This signal is asserted to indicate a read transfer. This is an active high signal and requires the jesd204_tx_avs_readdata[31:0] signal to be in use.

1

Input

This signal is asserted to indicate a write transfer. This is an active high signal and requires the jesd204_tx_avs_writedata[31:0] signal to be in use.

32

Output

32-bit data driven from the Avalon® memory-mapped slave to master in response to a read transfer.

1

This signal is asserted by the Avalon® memory-mapped slave to indicate that it is unable to respond to a read or write request. The JESD204B IP core ties this signal to 0 to return the data in the access cycle.

1

Input

For Subclass 0 and Subclass 2 mode, tie-off this signal to 0.

1

Input

Indicates SYNC_N from the converter device or receiver. This is an active low signal and is asserted 0 to indicate a synchronization request or error reporting from the converter device.

To indicate a synchronization request, the converter device must assert this signal for at least five frames and nine octets.

To indicate an error reporting, the converter device must ensure that the pulse is at least one cycle of the txlink_clk signal or two cycles of the txframe_clk signal (whichever period is longer).

1

Output

Indicates a clean synchronization request. This is an active low signal and is asserted 0 to indicate a synchronization request only. The sync_n signal error reporting is being masked out of this signal. This signal is also asserted during software-initiated synchronization.

1

Input

Indicates a multidevice synchronization request. Synchronize signal combination should be done externally and then input to the JESD204B IP core through this signal.

• For subclass 0—combine the dev_sync_n signal from all multipoint links before connecting to the mdev_sync_n signal.
• For subclass 1—connect the dev_sync_n signal to the mdev_sync_n signal for each link respectively.

In a single link instance where multidevice synchronization is not needed, tie the dev_sync_n signal to this signal.

Indicates a start of multiframe.
