1.3.2.1.7. Programmable Run-Length Violation Detection

The programmable run-length violation detection circuit resides in the word aligner block and detects if consecutive 1s or 0s in the received data exceed the user-specified threshold.

If the data stream exceeds the preset maximum number of consecutive 1s or 0s, the violation is signified by the assertion of the rx_rlv status bit.
