In addition you have the following options:
• You can toggle the

Data Pattern Select

bit switch between two data patterns.

• You can change the value of

Seed A

and

Seed B

.

Unlike the PRBS pattern generator, the pseudo-random pattern generator does not require a configurable

clock.

Square Wave Generator

To enable the square wave, write the following bits:
• Write 1'b1 to the

TX Test Enable

bit.

• Write 1'b1 to the

Square Wave Clock Enable

bit.

• Write 1'b1 to the

TX Test Select

bit.

• Write the

Square Wave Pattern

to 1, 4, 5, 6, 8 or 10 consecutive 1s or 0s.

The RX datapath does not include a verifier for the square wave and does drive a clock.

Interfaces for Stratix V Native PHY

This section describes the common, Standard and 10G PCS interfaces for the Stratix V Native PHY.
The Native PHY includes several interfaces that are common to all parameterizations. It also has separate

interfaces for the Standard and 10G PCS datapaths. If you use dynamic reconfiguration to change between

the Standard and 10G PCS datapaths, your top-level HDL file includes the port for both the Standard and

10G PCS datapaths. In addition, the Native PHY allows you to enable ports, even for disabled blocks to

facilitate dynamic reconfiguration.
The Native PHY uses the following prefixes for port names:
• Standard PCS ports—tx_std_, rx_std_

• 10G PCS ports—tx_10g_, rx_10g_

• PMA ports—tx_pma_, rx_pma_
The port descriptions use the following variables to represent parameters:
—The number of lanes

—The number of PLLs

—the number of CDR references clocks selected

Common Interface Ports for Stratix V Native PHY

This section describes the interface ports for the Stratix V native PHY.
Common interface consists of reset, clock signals, serial interface ports, control and status ports, parallel

data ports, PMA ports and reconfig interface ports. The following figure illustrates these ports.
