legacy_rx_frame_good

Output

Asserted at the end of frame reception to

 

 

 

 

 

 

indicate that the frame should be

 

 

 

 

 

 

processed by the MAC client.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

legacy_rx_frame_bad

Output

Asserted at the end of frame reception to

 

 

 

 

 

 

indicate that the frame should be

 

 

 

 

 

 

discarded by the MAC client: either the

 

 

 

 

 

 

frame contained an error, or it was

 

 

 

 

 

 

intended for the PTP or AV traffic

 

 

 

 

 

 

channel.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

legacy_rx_filter_match[7:0]

Output

This output is only present when the

 

 

 

 

 

 

“MAC Header Filters” are present (when

 

 

 

 

 

 

the core is generated in “Standard CORE

 

 

 

 

 

 

Generator Format”).

 

 

 

 

 

 

When present, each bit in the bus

 

 

 

 

 

 

corresponds to one of the unique

 

 

 

 

 

 

“Legacy MAC Header Filters.” A bit is

 

 

 

 

 

 

asserted, in alignment with

 

 

 

 

 

 

legacy_rx_data_valid signal, if the

 

 

 

 

 

 

corresponding filter number obtained a

 

 

 

 

 

 

match.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

AV Traffic Interface

AV Traffic Transmitter Path Signals

Table 5-4defines the core client-side AV traffic transmitter signals, used to transmit data from the AV client logic into the core. All signals are synchronous to the MAC transmitter clock, tx_clk, which must be qualified by the corresponding clock enable, tx_clk_en (see “Clocks and Resets”).

Description

 

 

 

av_tx_data[7:0]

Input

Frame data to be transmitted is supplied on this

 

 

port

 

 

 

av_tx_valid

Input

A data valid control signal for data on the

 

 

av_tx_data[7:0] port

 

 

 

av_tx_done

Input

Asserted by the AV client to indicate that further

 

 

frames, following the current frame, are/are not

 

 

held in a queue.

 

 

 

av_tx_ack

Output

Handshaking signal asserted when the current

 

 

data on av_tx_data[7:0] has been accepted.
