A.1. Derived Metrics from PMON IP

This topic describes the set of metrics that you can use to calculate the AXI4 efficiency and latency for read or write channels.

The following metrics can be derived through a combination of two or more counters set to specific AXI4 events. The formulas use the following notation:

  • AR - Read address channel
  • R - Read data channel
  • AW - Write address channel
  • W - Write data channel
  • B - Write response channel
  • Total traffic duration - Number of cycles from first AR or AW or W to last transaction on R or B channel.

Equations

Average number of data transactions per cycle =

Read efficiency =

Write efficiency =

Average Read latency =

Average Write latency =

You can also measure these AXI4 sub-channel efficiencies using the following equations:

Read address channel efficiency =

Read data channel efficiency =

Write command channel efficiency =

Write data channel efficiency =

Write response channel efficiency =
