SDI II IP Core Functional Description

UG-01125
The SDI II IP core implements a transmitter, receiver, or full-duplex interface.
The SDI II IP core consists of the following components:
• Protocol block—transmitter or receiver
• Transceiver blocks—PHY management & adapter and hard transceiver
In the parameter editor, you can specify either protocol, transceiver, or combined blocks for your design.
For example, if you have multiple protocol blocks in a design, you can multiplex them into one
transceiver.
The modular hierarchy design allows you to remove or reuse each submodule within the components
across different video standards. The transmitter and receiver data paths are independent from each
other.
The following figure shows the block diagram for non-Arria 10 devices.

For the Arria 10 devices, the SDI II IP core no longer provides the transceiver, and the TX PLL is no
longer wrapped in the transceiver PHY. You must generate the transceiver and the TX PLL separately.
