Page 102: Use Modes: Reference Clock Termination
GTX transceivers provide several available reference clock inputs. Clock selection and availability changed slightly across the first three generations of Virtex® FPGA transceivers. The Virtex-6 FPGA GTX transceiver significantly enhances reference clock capabilities by adding dedicated clock routing and multiplexer resources. Architecturally, the concept of a Quad (or Q), contains a grouping of four GTXE1 primitives, two dedicated reference clock pin pairs, and dedicated reference clock routing.
Page 103 Reference Clock Selection document describes the reference clocking architecture of the Virtex-6 FPGA GTX transceivers. Reference clock features include: • Clock routing for north and south bound clocks. • Clock inputs available per GTX PLL. • Static or dynamic selection of the reference clock for the transmitter and receiver PLLs.

RX Buffer Bypass Functional Description Bypassing the RX buffer is an advanced feature of the Virtex-6 FPGA GTX transceivers. RX buffer bypass can operate only under certain system-level conditions. The RX phase-alignment circuit is used to adjust the phase difference between the PMA parallel clock domain (XCLK) and the RXUSRCLK domain when the RX buffer is bypassed.

Page 285: Switching Regulator
Switching regulators generate significant noise and therefore usually require additional filtering before the voltage is delivered to the GTX analog power supply input of the Virtex-6 FPGA. The amplitude of the noise should be limited to less than 10 mV PK-PK Therefore the power supply filter should be designed to attenuate the noise from the switching regulator so that it meets this requirement.
Page 286: Power Supply Distribution Network
Package Additional decoupling is in the Virtex-6 FPGA packages. Decoupling capacitors in the package provide attenuation for noise in the package power plane, thereby reducing the interaction between Quads. These capacitors in the package also help to maintain a low- impedance, high-frequency path between the power supply (MGTAVCC or MGTAVTT) and ground.

Page 291: Crosstalk
FPGA is already powered and configured, i.e., hot-swappable or hot-pluggable. The Virtex-6 FPGA GTX transceivers support hot swapping. The Virtex-6 FPGA transceivers continue to function if the far-end receiver or transmitter is removed or installed. A recommended practice for hot-pluggable devices is to use a connector with staged pins so that the ground pins make contact prior to the other connector pins.
