4.7. IP Core Reset
The Interlaken IP core variations have a single asynchronous reset, the reset_n signal. The Interlaken IP core manages the initialization sequence internally. After you de-assert reset_n (raise it after asserting it low), the IP core automatically goes through the entire reset sequence.
Following completion of the reset sequence internally, the Interlaken IP core begins link initialization. If your IP core and its Interlaken link partner initialize the link successfully, you can observe the assertion of the lane and link status signals according to the Interlaken specification. For example, you can monitor the tx_lanes_aligned, sync_locked, word_locked, and rx_lanes_aligned output status signals.
The required wait time from de-asserting the reset_n signal to safely accessing the IP core registers is a function of the internal reset controller.
