7.3.3. Complex Straddled Channels

Typically, in complex configurations and closely packed transceivers, the PHY Arbiter and the TX and RX PHYs split the reconfiguration interface so that each transceiver channel has its own conduit, as shown in the following figure:

Figure 14. RX PHY and PHY Arbiter with Separate Reconfiguration Interfaces

This is useful in more complex designs where TX and RX do not align – i.e., TX 0 does not correspond to RX 0. This might be a result of tightly packing RX and TX channels. You can see such an example in the following figure, where separate reconfiguration interfaces and multiple arbiters are required and the channel numbers are not one-to-one. Note the following key points on this setup:

  • Arbiter1 has one channel but handles TX0[3] and RX1[0]
  • Arbiter2 has two channels: Arbiter2 channel 0 connects TX1 channel 0 and RX1 channel 1
  • Arbiter3 is two channels but TX-only

The physical location constraints (i.e., pins) must also correspond to this. In addition, the XCVR_RECONFIG_GROUP constraints must be set in the projects .qsf file or in the assignment editor.
