1.3.1.1. Transmitter Phase Compensation FIFO

The transmitter phase compensation FIFO is four words deep and interfaces with the transmitter channel PCS and the FPGA fabric or PCIe hard IP block. The transmitter phase compensation FIFO compensates for the phase difference between the low-speed parallel clock and the FPGA fabric interface clock.

Figure 22. Transmitter Phase Compensation FIFO

The transmitter phase compensation FIFO supports two operations:

  • Phase compensation mode with various clocking modes on the read clock and write clock
  • Registered mode with only one clock cycle of datapath latency
