2.4.1.2.1. Using RX in Manual Mode

When CTLE or VGA is in manual mode, you can use the Transceiver Native PHY IP Core or QSF assignments to select your CTLE AC gain, CTLE EQ gain, and VGA gain settings.

Contact Intel Support to obtain the recommended values for your system loss profile.

These values can always be overwritten through the Avalon® memory-mapped interface. The new values take precedence over values defined statically in the PHY IP core. Use this method to dynamically set values and avoid re-compilation.

Note: Intel does not recommend that you use manual mode due to PVT variations.
