Chapter 2: Signals, Interfaces, and Pins
VREF Source Considerations
The VREF pins for HSTL signaling can be from an internal or external source. The user should choose
based system design needs. The reference source is selected using the slcr.GPIOB_CTRL
[VREF_SW_EN] register bit.
2.6 PS–PL AXI Interfaces
The PS side of the AXI interfaces are based on the AXI 3 interface specification. Each interface
consists of multiple AXI channels. The interfaces are summarized in Table 2-6. Over a thousand
signals are used to implement these nine PL AXI interfaces.
Note: The PL level shifters must be enabled via LVL_SHFTR_EN before PL logic communication can
occur, refer to section 2.7.1 Clocks and Resets.
2.7 PS–PL Miscellaneous Signals
The programmable logic interface group contains miscellaneous interfaces between PS and the PL.
An input is driven by the PL and an output is driven by the PS. Signals might have suffixes where an
'N' suffix indicates an active Low signal; otherwise the signal is active High. A 'TN’ suffix indicates an
active Low 3-state enable signal and is an output to the PL. Output signals to the PL are always driven
to either a High or Low level state.
PS-PL signal groups are identified in Table 2-7.

PS PL Chapter 5, Interconnect has a
section to describe each of these
interfaces.
The AXI signals are listed
individually in section 5.6 PS-PL
AXI Interface Signals.
The AXI_ACP interface is also
described in multiple places in
Chapter 3, Application
Processing Unit, including section
3.5.1 PL Co-processing
Interfaces.
The PS interconnect is shown in
Figure 5-1.
