4.1.2.1. Receive Path Blocks

The Interlaken IP core receive data path has the following four main functional blocks:
  • RX PCS
  • RX MAC

RX PCS

The FPGA soft logic implements RX PCS. In PAM4 mode, the IP core contains a soft logic transcoder block to work with RS FEC of the RX PMA. The Interlaken IP core RX PCS block performs the following functions to retrieve the data:
  • Detects word lock and word synchronization.
  • Checks running disparity.
  • Reverses gear-boxing and 64/67B encoding.
  • Descrambles the data.
  • Delineates meta frame boundaries.
  • Performs CRC32 checking.
  • Sends lane status information to the calendar and status blocks, if Include in-band flow control functionality is turned on.

RX MAC

To recover a packet or burst, the RX MAC takes data from each of the PCS lanes and reassembles the packet or burst. The Interlaken IP core RX MAC performs the following functions:
  • Data de-striping, including lane alignment and burst assembly from the PCS lanes.
  • CRC24 validation.
  • The 4th Point after the "turned on". The Interlaken IP core RX regroup block translates the IP core internal data format to the outgoing user application data irx_data format.
  • Calendar recovery, if Include in-band flow control functionality is turned on.
