3.4.3.1. Starting the PMA Adaptation Flow

For E-tile Serial Lite IV Intel FPGA IP core variations, perform the following steps to start the PMA adaptation:

  1. Assert the TX, RX Digital Resets (tx_pcs_fec_phy_reset_n, rx_pcs_fec_phy_reset_n, tx_core_rst_n, rx_core_rst_n) and reconfiguration reset (reconfig_reset) signals. Release the reconfiguration reset (reconfig_reset) signal.
  2. Trigger the PMA analog reset and re-load the initial PMA settings.
    1. Write 0x200[7:0] = 0x00.
    2. Write 0x201[7:0] = 0x00.

    4. Write 0x203[7:0] = 0x81.
    5. Read 0x207 until it becomes 0x80. This indicates that the operation completed successfully.
    6. Write 0x91[0] = 1 to load the initial settings in the programming file.

  4. De-assert the TX Digital reset (tx_pcs_fec_phy_reset_n) and (tx_core_rst_n) signals.
