Figure 61. RX Datapath Options in Parameter Editor
Parameter | Values | Description |
---|---|---|

Enable precoding | On/Off | Enables precoding. Applicable to PAM4 encoding only. Default value is Off. |
PRBS generator mode 23 | disable, PRBS7, PRBS9, PRBS10, PRBS13, PRBS15, PRBS23, PRBS28, PRBS31, QPRBS13, PRBS13Q, PRBS31Q, SSPR, SSPR1, SSPRQ | Enables hard PRBS generator with the PRBS polynomial selection. Default value is disable. |
Enable SATA squelch detection | On/Off | Enables squelch detection for SATA. Default value is Off. |

Enable fgt_rx_signal_detect_lfps port | On/Off | Enables the fgt_rx_signal_detect_lfps port. Default value is Off. |
Enable rx_cdr_divclk_link0 port | On/Off | Enables the link port representing RX CDR clock output from RX PMA to the reference clock pin. The connection made from this port to the F-Tile Reference and System PLL Clocks Intel® FPGA IP guides the Fitter to determine the physical pin. Do not use this pin itself in simulation to observe clock behavior. Observe the actual clock behavior in the related output port of the F-Tile Reference and System PLL Clocks Intel® FPGA IP. The physical port is typically used for CPRI. You can connect the physical port to the physical reference clock pin 8 or 9 for configuration as RX CDR clock output. This setting is applicable for FGT PMA only. Default value is Off. |
Selected rx_cdr_divclk_link0 source | 0 to N-1, N = Number of PMA Lanes) | Determines which RX FGT PMA lane is sourcing fgt_rx_cdr_divclk_link0. Note that FGT PMA index used in this parameter is logical. The selected PMA lane must be physically mapped to FGT Quad 3 (with reference clock 9) or FGT Quad 2 (with reference clock 8). If Enable rx_cdr_divclk_link0 port is off, this parameter is ignored. Default value is Off. |
Enable rx_cdr_divclk_link1 port | On/Off | Enables the link port representing RX CDR clock output from RX PMA to the reference clock pin. The connection made from this port to the F-Tile Reference and System PLL Clocks Intel® FPGA IP guides the Fitter to determine the physical pin. Do not use this pin itself in simulation to observe clock behavior. Observe the actual clock behavior in the related output port of the F-Tile Reference and System PLL Clocks Intel® FPGA IP. The physical port is typically used for CPRI. You can connect the physical port to the physical reference clock pin 8 or 9 for configuration as RX CDR clock output. This setting is applicable for FGT PMA only. Default value is Off. |
Selected rx_cdr_divclk_link1 source | 0 to N-1 N = Number of PMA Lanes) | Determines which RX FGT PMA lane is sourcing fgt_rx_cdr_divclk_link1. Note that FGT PMA index used in this parameter is logical. The selected PMA lane must be physically mapped to FGT Quad 3 (with reference clock 9) or FGT Quad 2 (with reference clock 8). If Enable rx_cdr_divclk_link1 port is off, this parameter is ignored. Default value is Off. |
Enable fgt_rx_set_locktoref port | On/Off | Asserting this signal keeps CDR in lock to reference mode. Deasserting this signal keeps CDR in auto mode. When switching modes, assert reset. In manual reference clock mode, switch the reset controller to ignore locktodata mode through appropriate write to soft CSRs. Default value is Off. |
Enable fgt_rx_cdr_freeze port | On/Off | This port is for GPON to freeze the CDR lock state during non-active time-slots. Default value is Off. |

VCO frequency | 12890.625MHz | Specifies the non editable RX FGT CDR VCO output frequency initial value derived from the IP configuration. |
RX FGT CDR reference clock frequency | 25.781250-250.000000 | Selects the reference clock frequency (MHz) for CDR. Default value is 156.25. |
