Figure 7–14 shows the mapping of 128-bit Avalon-ST RX packets to PCI Express TLPs
for a four dword header with qword aligned addresses.
Figure 7–15 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.
