Using The Basic/Custom, Basic/Custom With Rate Match Configurations Of Standard Pcs - Intel Arria 10 User Manual

2.9.2. Using the Basic/Custom, Basic/Custom with Rate Match
Configurations of Standard PCS
Use one of the following transceiver configuration rules to implement protocols such as
SONET/SDH, SDI/HD, SATA, or your own custom protocol:
• Basic protocol
• Basic protocol with low latency enabled
• Basic with rate match protocol
Figure 130. Transceiver Channel Datapath and Clocking for the Basic and Basic with Rate
Match Configurations
The clocking calculations in this figure are for an example when the data rate is 1250 Mbps and the PMA width
is 10 bits.
625 MHz (2)
Notes:
1. The parallel clock (tx_clkout or rx_clkout) is calculated as data rate/PCS-PMA interface width =1250/10 = 125 MHz.
When the Byte Serializer is set to Serialize x2 mode, tx_clkout and rx_clkout become 1250/20 = 62.5 MHz.
2. The serial clock is calculated as data rate/2. The PMA runs on a dual data rate clock.
3. This block is only enabled when using the Basic with Rate Match transceiver configuration rule.
In low latency modes, the transmitter and receiver FIFOs are always enabled.
Depending on the targeted data rate, you can optionally bypass the byte serializer and
deserializer blocks.
