5. Parameters

Table 18.   GTS Serial Lite IV Intel® FPGA IP Parameter Description
Parameter Value Default Description
General Design Options
PMA data rate 1 Gbps – 16 Gbps 10.3125 Gbps Specifies the effective data rate at the output of the transceiver incorporating transmission and other overheads. The value is calculated by the IP by rounding up to 1 decimal place in Gbps unit.
PMA mode
  • Duplex
Duplex The supported direction is duplex.
Number of PMA lanes 1 – 4 1 Select the number of lanes. For simplex design, the supported number of lanes is 1 – 4.
PMA reference clock frequency 27.5 MHz – 379.84375 MHz, depending on the selected transceiver data rate. 156.25 MHz Specifies the reference clock frequency of the transceiver.
System PLL reference clock frequency — 170 MHz Available when the System PLL frequency selection is set to Custom, regardless of the transceiver type.
System PLL frequency
  • N 9
  • Custom
322.265625 MHz Specifies the system PLL clock frequency.
Custom System PLL frequency — 322.265625 MHz Specifies custom system PLL frequency. This field is enabled when System PLL frequency is set to Custom.
Alignment Period 128 – 65536 128 Specifies the alignment marker period.

The value must be x2.

User Interface
Streaming mode
  • FULL
  • BASIC
Full Select the data streaming for the IP.

FULL: This mode sends a start-of-packet and end-of-packet cycle within a frame.

BASIC: This is a pure streaming mode where data is sent without a start-of-packet, empty, and end-of-packet to increase bandwidth.
