Parameter
Value
Description
Avalon-MM data width
64-bit
128-bit
Specifies the data width for the Application Layer to
Transaction Layer interface. Refer to Application
Layer Clock Frequencies for All Combinations of Link
Width, Data Rate and Application Layer Interface
Widths for all legal combinations of data width,
number of lanes, Application Layer clock frequency,
and data rate.
Avalon-MM address width
32-bit
64-bit
Specifies the address width for Avalon-MM RX
master ports that access Avalon-MM slaves in the
Avalon address domain. When you select 32-bit
addresses, the PCI Express Avalon-MM Bridge
performs address translation. When you specify 64-
bits addresses, no address translation is performed in
either direction. The destination address specified is
forwarded to the Avalon-MM interface without any
changes.
For the Avalon-MM interface with DMA, this value
must be set to 64.
Peripheral mode
Requester/
Completer
Completer-Only
Specifies whether the Avalon-MM Arria V Hard IP
for PCI Express is capable of sending requests to the
upstream PCI Express devices, and whether the
incoming requests are pipelined.
Requester/Completer—In this mode, the Hard IP
can send request packets on the PCI Express TX link
and receive request packets on the PCI Express RX
link.
Completer-Only—In this mode, the Hard IP can
receive requests, but cannot initiate upstream
requests. However, it can transmit completion packets
on the PCI Express TX link. This mode removes the
Avalon-MM TX slave port and thereby reduces logic
utilization.
