A.2 HDRX HSB multiplexing scheme
A bus multiplexing scheme is necessary to reduce the number of pins required on the HDRX
header for the 64-bit AXI master on the HSBM bus. The LogicTile Express daughterboard must
implement a similar multiplexing scheme to be compatible with the CoreTile Express signals.
OSCCLK 4 on the CoreTile Express A15×2 daughterboard generates the AXI master bus clock.
This clocks the test chip master multiplex and demultiplex logic. This logic is positive- and
negative-edge triggered to avoid the requirement for a PLL or double-rate clock in the test chip.
Double edge clocking also enables operation at low speed for use with emulation systems.
All signals on the HSB (M) bus are 1.8V.
Figure A-2 shows a simplified block diagram of the multiplexing scheme for the AXI bus.
