Description
ko_cpl_spc_
header]7:0]
Output The Application Layer can use this signal to build circuitry to prevent RX
buffer overflow for completion headers. Endpoints must advertise infinite
space for completion headers; however, RX buffer space is finite.
ko_cpl_
spc_header
is a static signal that indicates the total number of completion
headers that can be stored in the RX buffer.

Description
refclk
Input
Reference clock for the Stratix V Hard IP for PCI Express. It
must have the frequency specified under the System Settings
heading in the parameter editor.
pld_clk
Input
Clocks the Application Layer. You can drive this clock with
coreclkout_hip
. If you drive
pld_clk
with another clock
source, it must be equal to or faster than
coreclkout
.
coreclkout
Output
This is a fixed frequency clock used by the Data Link and
Transaction Layers. To meet PCI Express link bandwidth
constraints, this clock has minimum frequency requirements as
listed in coreclkout_hip Values for All Parameterizations in the
Reset and Clocks chapter .
Refer to Stratix V Hard IP for PCI Express Clock Domains in the Reset and Clocks chapter for more
information about clocks.
Function-Level Reset Interface
The function-level reset (FLR) interface can reset the individual SR-IOV functions.
