8.5.2.1. XCVR_C10_RX_ADP_VGA_SEL

Pin planner or Assignment Editor Name

Receiver Variable Gain Amplifier Voltage Swing Select

Description

The variable gain amplifier (VGA) amplifies the signal amplitude and ensures a constant voltage swing before the data is fed to the CDR for sampling. This assignment controls the VGA output voltage swing when adaptation mode of VGA is set to manual. The default value is set to RADP_VGA_SEL_4 for VGA Output Voltage Swing Setting 4.

Default values for VGA if VGA are not set exclusively.

For PCIe Gen1 & Gen2: default value is RADP_VGA_SEL_2.

CTLE mode = NON_S1_MODE and datarate <= 4.5Gbps: default value is RADP_VGA_SEL_2.

CTLE mode = NON_S1_MODE and datarate > 4.5Gbps: default value is RADP_VGA_SEL_4.

CTLE mode = S1_MODE: default value is RADP_VGA_SEL_2.
