Figure 6. Waveform Example for Dynamic Phase Shift with Altera PLL Reconfig IP Core

The operation of the waveform example is as follows:

  1. Avalon writes to the mode register (address=0x00) to set the Altera PLL Reconfig IP core to operate in polling mode.
  2. Avalon writes to the dynamic phase shift register (address=0x06) to perform dynamic phase shift on C1 counter for four steps forward.
  3. Avalon writes to the start register (address=0x02) to start dynamic phase shifting.
  4. Avalon reads from the status register (address=0x01) until a value of 1 has been read from the status register, indicating the dynamic phase shifting is complete.
