The CSENT-TX core implements a transmitter for the Single Edge Nibble Transmission (SENT) protocol. It complies with the SAE J2716 standard and supports both synchronous and asynchronous transmission modes.
Under asynchronous mode, the core autonomously, without requiring any extra action from the host system, initiates transmission, as soon as data become available in its input-data register. Under synchronous mode, transmission is triggered by either the host system via the core’s control registers, or when the core receives a valid master trigger pulse via the SENT interface.
Designed for ease of use and integration, the core reports its status using two signals, one indicating that a transmission is in progress, and a second one reporting the completion of a frame's transmission. Furthermore, the CSENT-TX provides access to its control, status, and data registers via a 32-bit APB, or an AXI4-Lite or a generic subordinate interface. Impleme...

Furthermore, the CSENT-TX provides access to its control, status, and data registers via a 32-bit APB, or an AXI4-Lite or a generic subordinate interface. Implementation of the core is straightforward, as the core contains no latches or tri-states, is fully synchronous with a single clock domain, and includes no multicycle or false paths.
The CSENT-TX core is designed with industry best practices, has been rigorously verified and is production proven.
