6.2. Offset Cancellation

Offset cancellation adjusts the offsets within the RX PMA and the CDR parameters for process variations.

Every transceiver channel has offset cancellation circuitry to compensate for the offset variations that are caused by process operations. The offset cancellation circuitry is controlled by the offset cancellation control logic IP within the Transceiver Reconfiguration Controller. Resetting the Transceiver Reconfiguration Controller during user mode does not trigger the offset cancellation process.

When offset cancellation calibration is complete, the reconfig_busy status signal is deasserted to indicate the completion of the process.

The clock (mgmt_clk_clk ) to the Transceiver Reconfiguration Controller is also used for transceiver calibration and must be within the range of 100-125 MHz. If the clock (mgmt_clk_clk) is not free-running, the reconfiguration controller reset (mgmt_rst_reset) must be held in reset until the clock is stable.
