Figure 144. PHY IP Core and PLL IP Core Connection for PLL Feedback Compensation
Bonding
Reference clock
The data rate is limited by the x6 network speed limit. A disadvantage of using PLL
feedback compensation bonding is that it consumes more PLL resources. Each
transceiver bank consumes one PLL and one master CGB.
In PLL feedback compensation bonding mode, the N counter (reference clock divider)
is bypassed in order to ensure that the reference clock skew is minimized between the
PLLs in the bonded group. Because the N counter is bypassed, the PLL reference clock
has a fixed value for any given data rate.
The PLL IP Core Parameter Editor window displays the required data rate in the
PLL reference clock frequency drop down menu.
Steps to implement a PLL Feedback Compensation Bonding Configuration
1. Instantiate the PLL IP core (ATX PLL or fPLL) you want to use in your design. The
CMU PLL cannot drive the master CGB, only the ATX PLL or fPLL can be used for
feedback compensation bonding.
2. Configure the PLL IP core using the IP Parameter Editor.
