Signals
Table 21–7 lists the input and output signals for the Scaler MegaCore function.
Table 21–7. Scaler Signals
Signal Direction Description
clock
In
The main system clock. The MegaCore function operates on the rising edge
of the
clock
signal.
reset
In
The MegaCore function asynchronously resets when you assert
reset
. You
must deassert
reset
synchronously to the rising edge of the
clock
signal.
control_av_address
In
control
slave port Avalon-MM
address
bus. Specifies a word offset into
the slave address space.
(1)
control_av_chipselect
In
control
slave port Avalon-MM
chipselect
signal. The
control
port
ignores all other signals unless you assert this signal.
(1)
control_av_readdata
Out
control
slave port Avalon-MM
readdata
bus. These output lines are used
for read transfers.
(1)
control_av_waitrequest
Out
control
slave port Avalon-MM
waitrequest
signal.
(1)
control_av_write
In
control
slave port Avalon-MM
write
signal. When you assert this signal,
the
control
port accepts new data from the
writedata
bus.
(1)
control_av_writedata
In
control
slave port Avalon-MM
writedata
bus. These input lines are used
for write transfers.
(1)
din_data
In
din
port Avalon-ST
data
bus. This bus enables the transfer of pixel data
into the MegaCore function.
din_endofpacket
In
din
port Avalon-ST
endofpacket
signal. This signal marks the end of an
Avalon-ST packet.
din_ready
Out
din
port Avalon-ST
ready
signal. This signal indicates when the MegaCore
function is ready to receive data.
din_startofpacket
In
din
port Avalon-ST
startofpacket
signal. This signal marks the start of
an Avalon-ST packet.
din_valid
In
din
port Avalon-ST
valid
signal. This signal identifies the cycles when the
port must input data.
dout_data
Out
dout
port Avalon-ST
data
bus. This bus enables the transfer of pixel data
out of the MegaCore function.
dout_endofpacket
Out
dout
port Avalon-ST
endofpacket
signal. This signal marks the end of an
Avalon-ST packet.
dout_ready
In
dout
port Avalon-ST
ready
signal. The downstream device asserts this
signal when it is able to receive data.
dout_startofpacket
Out
dout
port Avalon-ST
startofpacket
signal. This signal marks the start of
an Avalon-ST packet.
dout_valid
Out
dout
port Avalon-ST
valid
signal. This signal is asserted when the
MegaCore function outputs data.
Note to Table 21–7:
(1) These ports are present only if you turn on Run-time control of image size.
