data
64xN
user_
clock
Input
This vector carries the transmitted streaming
data to the core.
N represents the number of lanes.
sync
8
user_
clock
Input
The sync vector is an 8 bit bus. The data value at
the start of a burst and the end of a burst are
captured and transported across the link.
Note: This vector is not associated with
Interlaken channelization or flow
control schemes.
valid
1
user_
clock
Input
This single bit signal indicates that the
transmitted streaming data is valid.
start_of_burst
1
user_
clock
Input
When the core is in burst mode operation,
asserting this signal indicates that the informa‐
tion on the data vector is the beginning of a
burst.
Because continuous mode is one long burst, in
this mode the signal is asserted only once at the
start of the data.
end_of_burst
1
user_
clock
Input
When the core is in burst mode operation,
asserting this signal indicates that the informa‐
tion on the data vector is the end of a burst.
You can optionally send an end of burst signal at
the end of continuous mode.
