Block Description
POS-PHY Level 4 IP Core User Guide December 2014 Altera Corporation
For 32-bit (quarter-rate) variations, an ALTDDIO IP core serializes the
tdclk
,
tdat
,
and
tctl
lines.
Status Processor
The transmitter IP core monitors and decodes the
tstat
status channel from the
receiver. It handles framing, checking for DIP-2 errors, and extracting status. The
status is provided to the transmit scheduler if present, and is always available to the
user logic. The clock edge on which the transmitter samples the status channel is
programmable.
The re-timed optimistic/pessimistic filtered status appears on the following signals:
■
ctl_ty_extstat_val
: asserted when the following two signals are valid
■
ctl_ty_extstat_adr
: port
■
ctl_ty_extstat
: status
These signals are synchronous with the positive edge of
txsys_clk.
The
txsys_clk
must be faster than the status clock,
tsclk
.
Based on the received status channel, these signals are updated when the finite state
machine is not in disable state. It is up to the user logic to ensure these signals are
used when
stat_ts_sync
is asserted.
In the individual buffers mode, if these signals are not connected to the user logic, the
Quartus II software removes the status FIFO buffer (
tx_stat_fifo_user
).
Given a calendar slot number, the status processor determines which port's status
belongs in the slot according to the calendar that it stores. When Asymmetric Port
Support is turned off, the port number corresponds with the slot number (that is, slot
one is port one, and so on). When Asymmetric Port Support is turned on, a
programmable calendar is stored in memory, and the port corresponding to the slot is
looked up.
1 If the Asymmetric Port Support parameter is turned on, the Avalon
®
Memory-
Mapped (Avalon-MM) registers must be programmed prior to releasing the
rsfrm
bit
(refer to Appendix E and the “Avalon-MM Interface Register Map” on page 5–24).
