5 years agoThat signal has been deprecated from the Avalon memory-mapped standard. I don't know what FIFO IP you are using or if you are building your own, but usually there would be a "not empty" signal or a status register to read to see if data is available.
If you use Avalon streaming instead of memory-mapped, you can make use of the valid and ready signals that are part of that standard for data streaming in and out of the FIFO.
