2.4. Parameters

Table 5.  Configurable Parameters
Parameter Legal Values Description
Number of channels 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16 The total number of channels supported on the Avalon® -ST data interfaces.
Symbols per beat 1–32 The number of symbols transferred in a beat on the Avalon® -ST data interfaces
Bits per symbol 1–32 The symbol width in bits on the Avalon® -ST data interfaces.
Error width 0–32 The width of the error signal on the Avalon® -ST data interfaces.
FIFO depth 2–232 The depth of each memory segment allocated for a channel. The value must be a multiple of 2.
Use packets 0 or 1 Setting this parameter to 1 enables packet support on the Avalon® -ST data interfaces.
Use fill level 0 or 1 Setting this parameter to 1 enables the Avalon® -MM status interface.
Number of almost-full thresholds 0 to 2 The number of almost-full thresholds to enable. Setting this parameter to 1 enables Use almost-full threshold 1. Setting it to 2 enables both Use almost-full threshold 1 and Use almost-full threshold 2.
Number of almost-empty thresholds 0 to 2 The number of almost-empty thresholds to enable. Setting this parameter to 1 enables Use almost-empty threshold 1. Setting it to 2 enables both Use almost-empty threshold 1 and Use almost-empty threshold 2.
Section available threshold 0 to 2 Address Width Specify the amount of data to be delivered to the output interface. This parameter applies only when packet support is disabled.
Packet buffer mode 0 or 1 Setting this parameter to 1 causes the core to deliver only full packets to the output interface. This parameter applies only when Use packets is set to 1.
Drop on error 0 or 1 Setting this parameter to 1 causes the core to drop packets at the Avalon® -ST data sink interface if the error signal on that interface is asserted. Otherwise, the core accepts the packet and sends it out on the Avalon® -ST data source interface with the same error. This parameter applies only when packet buffer mode is enabled.
Address width 1–32 The width of the FIFO address. This parameter is determined by the parameter FIFO depth; FIFO depth = 2 Address Width.
Use request Turn on this parameter to implement the Avalon® -MM request interface. If the core is configured to support more than one channel and the request interface is disabled, only channel 0 is accessible.
Use almost-full threshold 1 Turn on these parameters to implement the optional Avalon® -ST almost-full and almost-empty interfaces and their corresponding registers. See Control Interface Register Map for the description of the threshold registers.
Use almost-full threshold 2
Use almost-empty threshold 1
Use almost-empty threshold 2
Use almost-full threshold 1 0 or 1 This threshold indicates that the FIFO is almost full. It is enabled when the parameter Number of almost-full threshold is set to 1 or 2.
Use almost-full threshold 2 0 or 1 This threshold is an initial indication that the FIFO is getting full. It is enabled when the parameter Number of almost-full threshold is set to 2.
Use almost-empty threshold 1 0 or 1 This threshold indicates that the FIFO is almost empty. It is enabled when the parameter Number of almost-empty threshold is set to 1 or 2.
Use almost-empty threshold 2 0 or 1 This threshold is an initial indication that the FIFO is getting empty. It is enabled when the parameter Number of almost-empty threshold is set to 2.
