Figure 7–13

shows the mapping of 128-bit Avalon-ST RX packets to PCI Express TLPs

for a four dword header with qword aligned addresses.

Figure 7–14

illustrates the timing of the RX interface when the Application Layer

backpressures the Hard IP by deasserting

rx_st_ready

. The

rx_st_valid

signal must

deassert within three cycles after

rx_st_ready

is deasserted. In this example,

rx_st_valid

is deasserted in the next cycle.
