// Module: axis_pkt_throttle
//
// Description:
//
// This module takes in AXI-Stream and outputs the same stream, inserting
// gaps between packets in order to maintain a specific data rate. The amount
// of time between packets is controlled in such a way that the length of a
// packet divided by the time between the start of that packet and the next
// does not exceed some rate R.
//
// This module does NOT insert stalls within a packet, only between packets,
// so the peak data rate is not restricted and packet contiguity is not
// affected. Also, the average data rate could be slightly higher than the
// configured rate due to rounding error (within a single clock cycle per
// packet).
//
// The "throttle" input port controls the rate. In order to set the rate to
// R, where R is a fraction in the range (0,1], set throttle (T) using the
// formula T = (1/R)-1. In other words, R = 1/(T+1).
//
// The "throttle" input is represented as an unsigned fixed-point value with
// THROTTLE_W/2 whole bits and THROTTLE_W/2 fractional bits (UQn.n format).
// Throttle is therefore in the range [0,1).
//
// For example, if THROTTLE_W is 8 bits then throttle is in UQ4.4 format (4
// whole bits and 4 fractional bits). In this case, a throttle value of 0
// corresponds to a rate of 1/(0+1) = 1.0, which is 100% or full throttle. A
// throttle value of 15.9375 (i.e., 0xFF, or the max value) corresponds to a
// rate of 1/(15.9375+1) = 0.05904059, or 5.9% of the maximum rate.
//
// The throttle input is sampled between packets. Changing the throttle
// during a packet, or before its inserted stall time has elapsed, has no
// effect until the next packet.
//
// Parameters:
//
// THROTTLE_W : Width of the throttle input in bits.
// DATA_W : Width of data bus for AXI-Stream in bits.
// MTU : The maximum supported packet length is 2**MTU.
