Description
Width
I/O
Signal
A transmit interface signal. Assert this
signal to indicate that a timestamp is
obtained and a timestamp request is valid
for the particular frame.
Assert this signal in the same clock cycle
as the start of packet (
avalon_st_tx_
startofpacket
is asserted).
1
O
tx_egress_timestamp_96b_valid
Configurable width fingerprint that returns
with correlated timestamps.
The signal width is determined by the
TSTAMP_FP_WIDTH parameter (default
parameter value is 4).
n
O
tx_egress_timestamp_96b_
fingerprint
A transmit interface signal. This signal
requests timestamp of frames on the TX
path. The timestamp is used to calculate
the residence time.
Consists of 48-bit nanoseconds field and
16-bit fractional nanoseconds field.
64
O
tx_egress_timestamp_64b_data
A transmit interface signal. Assert this
signal to indicate that a timestamp is
obtained and a timestamp request is valid
for the particular frame.
Assert this signal in the same clock cycle
as the start of packet (
avalon_st_tx_
startofpacket
or
avalon_st_tx_
startofpacket_n
is asserted).
1
O
tx_egress_timestamp_64b_valid
Configurable width fingerprint that returns
with correlated timestamps.
The signal width is determined by the
TSTAMP_FP_WIDTH parameter (default
parameter value is 4).
