ToD Clock Avalon-ST Transmit Interface Signals
Table C-5: Avalon-ST Transmit Interface Signals for ToD Clock
Description
Width
Direction
Signal
Timestamp from the ToD clock
• Bits 0 to 15: 16-bit fractional nanosecond
field
• Bits 16 to 63: 48-bit nanosecond field
64
Output
time_of_day_64b[]
Timestamp from the ToD clock
• Bits 0 to 15: 16-bit fractional nanosecond
field
• Bits 16 to 47: 32-bit nanosecond field
• Bits 48 to 95: 48-bit second field
96
Output
time_of_day_96b[]
Indicates that the synchronized ToD is valid.
Every time you assert this signal, the synchro-
nized ToD is loaded into the ToD clock. Assert
this signal for only one clock cycle.
1
Input
time_of_day_96b_load_valid
Loads 96-bit synchronized ToD from master
ToD clock to slave ToD clock within 1 clock
cycle.
• Bits 0 to 15: 16-bit fractional nanosecond
field
• Bits 16 to 63: 32-bit nanosecond field
• Bits 64 to 95: 48-bit second field
96
Input
time_of_day_96b_load_data[]
Indicates that the synchronized ToD is valid.
Every time you assert this signal, the synchro-
nized ToD is loaded into the ToD clock. Assert
this signal for only one clock cycle.
1
Input
time_of_day_64b_load_valid
Loads 64-bit synchronized ToD from master
ToD clock to slave ToD clock within 1 clock
cycle.
• Bits 0 to 15: 16-bit fractional nanosecond
field
• Bits 16 to 63: 48-bit nanosecond field
64
Input
time_of_day_64b_load_data[]
Clock for the ToD clock. The clock must be in
the same clock domain as
tx_time_of_day
and
rx_time_of_day
in the MAC function.
1
Input
period_clk
Assert this signal to reset
period_clk
to the
same clock domain as
tx_time_of_day
and
rx_time_of_day
in the MAC function.
1
Input
period_rst_n
Time-of-Day (ToD) Clock
