Direction
Description
derr_cor_ext_rcv
Output
Indicates a corrected error in the RX buffer. This signal is for
debug only. It is not valid until the RX buffer is filled with data.
This is a pulse, not a level, signal. Internally, the pulse is
generated with the 500 MHz clock. A pulse extender extends the
signal so that the FPGA fabric running at 250 MHz can capture
it. Because the error was corrected by the IP core, no Application
Layer intervention is required.
derr_cor_ext_rpl
Output
Indicates a corrected ECC error in the retry buffer. This signal is
for debug only. Because the error was corrected by the IP core,
no Application Layer intervention is required.
derr_rpl
Output
Indicates an uncorrectable error in the retry buffer. This signal is
for debug only.
The signal is not available for Arria V and Cyclone V devices.
dlup
Output
When asserted, indicates that the Hard IP block is in the Data
Link Control and Management State Machine (DLCMSM) DL_
Up state.
dlup_exit
Output
This signal is asserted low for one
pld_clk
cycle when the IP
core exits the DLCMSM DL_Up state, indicating that the Data
Link Layer has lost communication with the other end of the
PCIe link and left the Up state. When this pulse is asserted, the
Application Layer should generate an internal reset signal that is
asserted for at least 32 cycles.
ev128ns
Output
Asserted every 128 ns to create a time base aligned activity.
ev1us
Output
Asserted every 1µs to create a time base aligned activity.
hotrst_exit
Output
Hot reset exit. This signal is asserted for 1 clock cycle when the
LTSSM exits the hot reset state. This signal should cause the
Application Layer to be reset. This signal is active low. When this
pulse is asserted, the Application Layer should generate an
internal reset signal that is asserted for at least 32 cycles.
(3)
Debug signals are not rigorously verified and should only be used to observe behavior. Debug signals
should not be used to drive custom logic.
