4. Resetting Transceiver Channels

4.6. Combining Status or PLL Lock Signals
You can combine multiple PHY status signals before feeding into the reset controller as
shown below.

When using multiple PLLs, you can logical AND the
reset controller. Similarly, you can logical OR the

Resetting different channels separately requires multiple reset controllers. For
example, a group of channels configured for Interlaken requires a separate reset
controller from another group of channels that are configured for optical
communication.
4.7. Timing Constraints for Bonded PCS and PMA Channels
For designs that use TX PMA and PCS Bonding, the digital reset signal

Note:
If the design is not able to meet the maximum skew tolerance requirement with a
positive margin, Intel recommends reassigning the channels' locations that are not
adjacent to the PCIe Hard IP block.
