Description

Enable TX bitslip

On/Off

The bit slip feature allows you to slip the

transmitter side bits before they are sent to the

gearbox. The maximum number of bits slipped is

equal to the ((FPGA fabric-to-transceiver

interface width) – 1). For example, if the FPGA

fabric-to-transceiver interface width is 64 bits, the

bit slip logic can slip a maximum of 63 bits. Each

channel has 5 bits to determine the number of

bits to slip. The value specified on the TX bitslip

bus indicates the number of bit slips. Effectively,

each value shifts the word boundary by one bit.

For example, a TX bitslip value of 1 on a 64bit

FPGA interface width shifts the word boundary

by 1 bit. That is, bit[63] from the first word and

bit[62:0] are concatenated to form a 64 bit word

(bit[62:0] from the second word, bit[63] from the

first word LSB).
This option is only available for the Standard and

10G datapaths.

Enable RX bitslip

On/Off

When enabled, the wordaligner operates in bitslip

mode. This option is available for Stratix V and

Arria V GZ devices using the 10G datapath.

Enable embedded reset control

On/Off

This option is turned on by default. When On,

the embedded reset controller initiates the reset

sequence when it receives a positive edge on the

phy_mgmt_clk_reset

input signal.

Disable this option to implement your own reset

sequence using the

tx_analogreset

,

rx_

analogreset

,

tx_digitalreset

,

rx_digital-

reset

, and

pll_powerdown

which are available as

top-level ports of the Low Latency Transceiver

PHY. When you design your own reset

controller, the

tx_ready

and

rx_ready

are not

top-level signals of the core. Another option is to

use Altera’s Transceiver PHY Reset Controller IP

Core to reset the transceivers. For more informa‐

tion, refer to the Transceiver PHY Reset Controller

IP Corechapter.
For more information about designing a reset

controller, refer to the User-Controlled Reset

Controller section in the Transceiver Reset Control

in Stratix V Devices in volume 2 of the Stratix V

Device Handbook.
