6.7.4.1. 10G PCS Receiver and Transmitter Blocks
The following blocks below can be enabled and disabled and configured in the 10G PCS.
- Receive and Transmit FIFO
- CRC32 Generator/Checker
- Metaframe Generator/Synchronizer
- 64B/66B Encoder/Decoder
- Scrambler/Descrambler
- Disparity Generator/Checker
- Block Synchronizer
- Multi-Gearbox
The hard PCS blocks natively support 10/40 Gigabit Ethernet and Interlaken. The remaining protocols are supported via 10G PCS Low Latency datapath configuration with the appropriate gearbox ratios.
