Figure 3-17: Direct VS TX Timing Diagram
Expected behavior on the direct VS TX interface of a CPRI v6.0 IP core running at 0.6144 Gbps.
The aux_tx_x signal is not part of this interface and is available only if you turn on the AUX interface in
your CPRI v6.0 IP core variation. However, its presence in the timing diagram explains the timing of the
vs_tx_ready output signal that you use to identify the clock cycles when you can write VS data to the
CPRI frame.
The aux_tx_x[7:0] signal (labelled simply aux_tx_x) holds the eight-bit index of the basic frame in the
hyperframe, from the perspective of the AUX interface. The subchannel index is the control word index
modulo 64, available in aux_tx_x[5:0] if you turn on the AUX interface in your CPRI IP core.
Note that the write latency is one cpri_clkout clock cycle in this example.

Real-Time Vendor Specific Interface
If you turn on Enable real-time vendor specific interface (R-16A) in the CPRI v6.0 parameter editor, the
real-time vendor specific interface is available. This interface allows direct access to the Real Time Vendor
Specific words in the CPRI hyperframe. Check the rtvs_rx_valid and rtvs_tx_ready signals to ensure
you read and write this interface at the time that corresponds to the correct position in the CPRI frame. If
you implement the AUX interface, you can read the value on the aux_rx_seq or aux_tx_seq output
signal to identify the current position in the frame.
This option is only available if you specify a CPRI line bit rate of 10.1376 Gbps for your IP core.
This interface is Avalon-ST compliant with a read latency value of 1.
You can alter the transmit write latency with the Auxiliary latency cycle(s) parameter.
