Signal

Direction

Description

txcompl0

Output

Transmit compliance . This signal forces the running

disparity to negative in compliance mode (negative COM

character).

txdata0[31:0]

Output

Transmit data. This bus transmits data on lane .

txdatak0[3:0]

Output

Transmit data control . This signal serves as the control bit

for

txdata

. Bit 0 corresponds to the lowest-order byte of

rxdata

, and so on. A value of 0 indicates a data byte. A value of 1

indicates a control byte. For Gen1 and Gen2 only.

txdataskip0

Output

For Gen3 operation. Allows the MAC to instruct the TX interface

to ignore the TX data interface for one clock cycle. The following

encodings are defined:
• 1’b0: TX data is invalid

• 1’b1: TX data is valid

txdeemph0

Output

Transmit de-emphasis selection. The value for this signal is set

based on the indication received from the other end of the link

during the Training Sequences (TS). You do not need to change

this value.

txdetectrx0

Output

Transmit detect receive . This signal tells the PHY layer to

start a receive detection operation or to begin loopback.

txelecidle0

Output

Transmit electrical idle . This signal forces the TX output to

electrical idle.

tx_margin0[2:0]

Output

Transmit V

OD

margin selection. The value for this signal is based

on the value from the

Link Control 2

Register

. Available for

simulation only.

txswing0

Output

When asserted, indicates full swing for the transmitter voltage.

When deasserted indicates half swing.

txsynchd0[1:0]

Output

For Gen3 operation, specifies the block type. The following

encodings are defined:
• 2'b01: Ordered Set Block
• 2'b10: Data Block
