ACDS Version
Changes Made
• Added information about turning on and off loopback mode in two new
sections, External Loopback Mode and Internal Serial Loopback Mode, in IP
Core Test Features chapter.
• Clarified that Counter Reset Bits is the
CNTR_BITS
advanced parameter, in
Counter Reset Bits section.
• Added new advanced parameter,
TX_USR_CLK_MHZ
, that specifies the required
frequency of the two input clocks
tx_usr_clk
and
rx_usr_clk
. Added new
section in Advanced Parameter Settings chapter, and clarified required
frequencies in 50G Interlaken IP Core Clock Interface Signals section. This
advanced parameter is included in the IP core version 14.0 and later.
• Corrected instructions to modify the
USE_ATX
advanced parameter by moving
the parameter to the correct list in Modifying Hidden Parameter Values
section.
• Clarified that the testbench and example design are generated only if you
specify the IP core synthesis and simulation models are in Verilog HDL. The
IP core does not support VHDL models, despite the fact that in the IP core
v14.0 and later, the parameter editor appears to offer that option.
• Fixed assorted typos and formatting issues.
