5.5.1.2.3. HSSI Bonded Clock Connection

The HSSI Bonded Clock Connection defines a connection between a HSSI Bonded Clock Source connection point, and a HSSI Bonded Clock Sink connection point.

A valid HSSI Bonded Clock Connection exists when all the following criteria are satisfied. If the following criteria are not satisfied, Platform Designer generates error messages and the connection is prohibited.

  • The starting connection point is an HSSI Bonded Clock Source with a single port role clk with a width range of 1 to 24 bits. The direction of the starting port is Output.
  • The ending connection point is an HSSI Bonded Clock Sink with a single port role clk with a width range of 1 to 24 bits. The direction of the ending port is Input.
  • The width of the starting connection point clk must be the same as the width of the ending connection point.
  • If the parameter, clockRate of the HSSI Bonded Clock Sink greater than 0, then the connection is only valid if the clockRate of the HSSI Bonded Clock Source is same as the clockRate of the HSSI Bonded Clock Sink.
  • If the parameter, serializationFactor of the HSSI Bonded Clock Sink is greater than 0, Platform Designer generates a warning if the serializationFactor of HSSI Bonded Clock Source is not same as the serializationFactor of the HSSI Bonded Clock Sink.
