2.7.2.1.7. Gen1 and Gen2 Clock Compensation
PIPE 0 ppm
In compliance with the PIPE specification, Arria 10 receiver channels have a rate match FIFO to compensate for small clock frequency differences up to ±300 ppm between the upstream transmitter and the local receiver clocks.
Consider the following guidelines for PIPE clock compensation:
- Insert or delete one SKP symbol in an SKP ordered set.
- Minimum limit is imposed on the number of SKP symbols in SKP ordered set after deletion. An ordered set may have an empty COM case after deletion.
- Maximum limit is imposed on the number of the SKP symbols in the SKP ordered set after insertion. An ordered set may have more than five symbols after insertion.
- For INSERT/DELETE cases: The flag status appears on the COM symbol of the SKP ordered set where insertion or deletion occurs.
- For FULL/EMPTY cases: The flag status appears where the character is inserted or deleted.
Note: When the PIPE interface is on, it translates the value of the flag to the appropriate pipe_rx_status signal.
- The PIPE mode also has a “0 ppm” configuration option that you can use in synchronous systems. The Rate Match FIFO Block is not expected to do any clock compensation in this configuration, but latency is minimized.
