Rx AV Traffic I/F

Rx AV Traffic I/F

The signals forming the Rx AV Traffic I/F are defined in Table 5-5. all signals are synchronous to the Tri-Mode Ethernet MAC receiver clock, rx_clk, which must always be qualified by the corresponding clock enable, rx_clk_en (see Table 5-1).

This interface is intentionally identical to the legacy receiver interface (there is a one-to-one correspondence between signal names when the legacy_ prefix is exchanged for the av_ prefix).

Figure 7-7:Normal Frame Reception across the AV Traffic Interface

Figure 7-7illustrates the timing of a normal inbound frame transfer. The AV client must be prepared to accept data at any time; there is no buffering within the core to allow for latency in the receive client. After frame reception begins, data is transferred on consecutive clock enabled cycles to the AV receive client until the frame is complete. The core asserts the av_rx_frame_good to indicate that the frame was intended for the AV traffic client, and was successfully received without error.
