Source Clock Tree
The source uses the following clocks:
• Local pixel clock (
txN_vid_clk
), which clocks video data into the IP core.
• Main link clock (
tx_ss_clk
), which clocks data out of the IP core and into the high-speed serial
output (HSSI) components. The main link clock is the output of the CMU PLL clock. You can supply
the CMU PLL with the single reference clock (135 MHz). You can use other frequencies by changing
the CMU PLL divider ratios and/or reconfiguring the transceiver. The 20- or 40- bit data fed to the
HSSI is synchronized to a single HSSI[0] clock. If you select the dual symbol mode option, this clock is
equal to the link rate divided by 20 (270, 135, or 81 MHz). If you turn on quad symbol mode, this clock
is equal to the link rate divided by 40 (135, 67.5, or 40.5 MHz).
• 16 MHz clock (
aux_clk
), which the IP core requires to encode or decode the AUX channel. A separate
clock (
clk
) clocks the Avalon-MM interface.
•
txN_audio_clk
for the audio interface.
