Notes on grouping channels Ch0, Ch1, and Ch2:
• If channels 0 and 1 are configured as GT channels, channel 2 is unusable
(Configuration A).
• If either channel 0 or 1 is configured as a GT channel, the remaining channels are
unusable (Configurations B and C).
• If channels 0 and 1 are not configured as GT channels, this grouping can be all
configured as GX channels (Configuration D).
• If either channel 0 or 1 is used as a GT channel, then the ATX PLL adjacent to
channel 0 and 1 must be reserved for GT channel configurations.

Notes on grouping channels Ch3, Ch4, and Ch5:
• If channels 3 and 4 are configured as GT channels, channel 5 is unusable
(Configuration A).
• If either channel 3 or 4 is configured as a GT channel, the remaining channels are
unusable (Configurations B and C).
• If channels 3 and 4 are not configured as GT channels, this grouping can be all
configured as GX channels (Configuration D).
• If either channel 3 or 4 is used as a GT channel, then the ATX PLL adjacent to
channel 3 and 4 must be reserved for GT channel configurations.

2.9.4. How to Implement PCS Direct Transceiver Configuration Rule

You should be familiar with PCS Direct architecture, PMA architecture, PLL
architecture, and the reset controller before implementing PCS Direct Transceiver
Configuration Rule.
1. Open the IP Catalog and select Arria 10 Transceiver Native PHY IP. Refer to
Select and Instantiate the PHY IP Core
2. Select PCS Direct from the Transceiver configuration rules list located under
Datapath Options.
3. Configure your Native PHY IP.
4. Click Generate to generate the Native PHY IP (this is your RTL file).
