FIFO Buffer Size
The size of the FIFO buffers is based on the factors listed in Table 3–7 on page 3–20.
FIFO Buffer Structure
Figure 3–13 shows the Atlantic FIFO buffer structure.
The FIFO buffer threshold low (FTL),
ctl_rxrdp_ftl/ctl_rxhpp_ftl,
value for
receiver variations controls when the
rxrdp_dav/rxhpp_dav
signals are asserted for
the read side of the FIFO buffer, respectively. If the fill level of the buffer is higher than
the FTL value, the
rxrdp_dav/rxhpp_dav
signal is asserted indicating that there is a
burst of data available.
1 There is no requirement to wait for the
rxrdp_dav/rxhpp_dav
signal to be asserted;
you can read from the buffer at any time by asserting the
rxrdp_ena/rxhpp_ena
signal
at all times and qualifying the data with the
rxrdp_val/rxhpp_val
signal. The FIFO
buffer has built-in underflow protection, such that an underflow condition does not
exit.
Table 3–7. Factors Affecting Receive FIFO Buffer Size
Factor Description
Flow control
If flow control is enabled, the FIFO buffer size should change to
account for the thresholds that must be set.
Pause duration
When optimizing against starvation during flow control, the pause
duration affects the FIFO buffer size.
Number of packets (and
packet sizes)
If you want to use a store-and-forward FIFO (using the
eop_dav
and a high threshold), the FIFO must be big enough to hold a full
packet at minimum.
Wire delay and bit rate
The wire propagation delay and the bit rate change the wire latency,
which must be accommodated if flow control is used.
