5.6.2. Intel® Arria® 10 External PLL Interface Signals

50G Interlaken IP core variations that target an Arria 10 device require an external transceiver PLL to function correctly in hardware. 50G Interlaken IP core variations that target an Arria V or Stratix V device include the transceiver PLLs and do not require that you configure any additional PLLs.

Description

tx_serial_clk

Input

NUM_LANES

High-speed clock for Intel® Arria® 10 transceiver channel, provided from external TX PLL.

tx_pll_locked

Input

1

PLL-locked indication from external TX PLL.

tx_pll_powerdown

Output

1

Output signal from the IP core internal reset controller. The IP core asserts this signal to tell the external PLLs to power down.
