Description
The 'RX CDR PLL status' indicator showing 'PLL not locked' on the Transceiver Toolkit when the 'RX CDR data status' indicator shows 'PLL locked' is normal behavior.
- The 'RX CDR PLL status' indicator displays the state of the transceiver rx_is_lockedtoref signal.
- The 'RX CDR Data status' indicator displays the state of the transceiver rx_is_lockedtodata signal.
The Stratix® V GX handbook states "The Phase Frequency Detector (PFD) is inactive in LTD mode. The rx_is_lockedtoref status signal toggles randomly and is not significant in LTD mode.".
