5.14.1. IWF Source Interface

Table 42.  Signals of the IWF Source InterfaceAll signals are synchronous to clk_tx.
Signal Name Width (Bits) I/O Direction Description
iwf_avst_source_valid 1 Output Avalon® source valid from eCPRI IP to client logic.
iwf_avst_source_data DATA_WIDTH 10 Output Avalon® source write data from eCPRI IP to client logic.
iwf_avst_source_sop 1 Output Avalon® source start of packet from eCPRI IP to client logic. Indicates the beginning of packet.
iwf_avst_source_eop 1 Output Avalon® source end of packet from eCPRI IP to client logic. Indicates the end of packet.
iwf_avst_source_empty LOG2(DATA_WIDTH10/8) Output Avalon® source empty from eCPRI IP to client logic. Indicates the number of symbols that are empty, that is, do not represent valid data.
iwf_avst_source_error 1 Output Avalon® source error from eCPRI IP to client logic. A bit mask to mark errors affecting the data being transferred in the current cycle.
iwf_gmii_rxdv[N] 1 Input Ethernet receive data valid. Indicates the presence of valid data or initial start-of-packet control character on iwf_gmii_rxd.

This signal is from IWF to user logic.

iwf_gmii_rxer[N] 1 Input Ethernet receive error. Indicates an error on iwf_gmii_rxd. When this signal is asserted, the value on iwf_gmii_rxd is 0x0E.

This signal is from user logic to IWF.

iwf_gmii_rxd[N] 8 Input Ethernet receive data. Data bus for data from the IWF to the external Ethernet block.

This signal is from user logic to IWF.

iwf_gmii_rxfifo_status[N] 4 Input Ethernet RX PCS FIFO fill level status. The individual bits have the following meanings:
  • Bit [3]: Empty
  • Bit [2]: Almost empty
  • Bit [1]: Full
  • Bit [0]: Almost full

This signal is from user logic to IWF.

iwf_gmii_txen[N] 1 Output Valid signal for GMII interface that indicate data is valid. This signal required to be asserted two clock cycles earlier for the character S to be inserted into the data stream as the start of packet before takes in the real GMII data. The deassertion of this signal trigger the assertion of /T/R as the representation of end of packet.

This signal is from user logic to IWF.

iwf_gmii_txer[N] 1 Output Ethernet transmit coding error.

This signal is from user logic to IWF.

iwf_gmii_txd[N] 8 Output Ethernet transmit data.

This signal is from user logic to IWF.

iwf_gmii_txfifo_status[N] 4 Input Ethernet TX PCS FIFO fill level status. The individual bits have the following meanings:
  • Bit [3]: Empty
  • Bit [2]: Almost empty
  • Bit [1]: Full
  • Bit [0]: Almost full

This signal is from user logic to IWF.

iwf_source_pkt_checksum 16 Output Checksum for data packet from IWF to eCPRI IP.

This signal is used for UPD checksum.

iwf_source_concatenation 1 Output Concatenation indication on the eCPRI message:
  • 0: Indicates that the eCPRI message is the last one inside the eCPRI PDU.
  • 1: Indicates that another eCPRI message follows this one within the eCPRI PDU.
Valid on SOP assertion and stable until EOP assertion.
Note: IWF do not support concatenation.
iwf_source_pc_id 16 Output Physical channel ID of the eCPRI message. Lower byte maps to CPRI channel. Only channel 0 is supported in the current release.

Valid on SOP assertion and stable until EOP assertion.

iwf_source_seq_id 16 Output Sequence ID of the eCPRI message.

Valid on SOP assertion and stable until EOP assertion.

iwf_source_rtc_id 16 Output Real Time Control ID of the eCPRI message.

Valid on SOP assertion and stable until EOP assertion.

Valid values are:
  • ID [7:0]: CPRI channel
  • ID [11:8]: 'h0- Ctrl_AxC, 'h1- Vendor Specific, 'h2- Real-time Vendor Specific
iwf_source_msg_type 8 Output Indicate message type of the eCPRI message. IWF type 0 supports only message type 0, 2, 6 and 7.

Valid on SOP assertion and stable until EOP assertion.

iwf_source_reset_id 16 Output Indicate reset ID of the eCPRI message type 6. Lower byte maps to CPRI channel. Only channel 0 is supported in the current release.
