Table 12-25: 10G RX FIFO Parameters
Parameter
Range
Description
RX FIFO Mode
Interlaken
clk_comp
phase_comp
register
Specifies one of the following 3 modes:
• interlaken : Select this mode for the
Interlaken protocol. To implement
the deskew process. In this mode the
FIFO acts as an elastic buffer. The
FIFO write clock can exceed the read
clock. Your implementation must
control the FIFO write (
tx_
datavalid
) by monitoring the FIFO
flags. The read enable is controlled
by the Interlaken Frame Generator.
• clk_comp : This mode compensates
for the clock difference between the
PLD clock (
coreclkin
) and
rxclkout
. After block lock is
achieved, idle ordered set insertions
and deletions compensate for the
clock difference between RX PMA
clock and PLD clock up to ± 100
ppm. Use this mode for 10GBASE-R.
• phase_comp : This mode
compensates for the clock phase
difference between the PLD clock
(
coreclkin
) and
rxclkout
.
• register : The TX FIFO is bypassed.
rx_data
and
rx_data_valid
are
registered at the FIFO output.
RX FIFO full threshold
0-31
Specifies the full threshold for the 10G
PCS RX FIFO. The default value is 31.
RX FIFO empty threshold
0-31
Specifies the empty threshold for the
10G PCS RX FIFO. The default value is
0.
RX FIFO partially full threshold
0-31
Specifies the partially full threshold for
the 10G PCS RX FIFO. The default
value is 23.
RX FIFO partially empty threshold
0-31
Specifies the partially empty threshold
for the 10G PCS RX FIFO.
Enable RX FIFO alignment word deletion
(Interlaken)
On/Off
When you turn this option On, all
alignment words (sync words),
including the first sync word, are
removed after frame synchronization is
achieved. If you enable this option, you
must also enable control word deletion.
