Description
PLL
pll_inclk
Input
Clock signal
Input reference clock for the PLL (multipurpose PLL or
general purpose PLL) used by the transceiver instance. When
configured with the transmitter and receiver channel
configuration in Deterministic Latency mode, multiple
pll_inclk
ports are available as follows.
Configured with PLL PFD feedback—x is the number of
channels selected:
■
pll_inclk[x-1..0]
are input reference clocks for each
transmitter in the transceiver instance
■
pll_inclk[x+1..x]
are input reference clocks for
receivers in the transceiver instance
Configured without PLL PFD feedback:
■
pll_inclk[0]
is input reference clock for transmitters in
the transceiver instance
■
pll_inclk[1]
is input reference clock for receivers in the
transceiver instance
pll_locked
Output Asynchronous signal
PLL (used by the transceiver instance) lock indicator.
pll_areset
Input
Asynchronous signal
PLL (used by the transceiver instance) reset.
■
When asserted, the PLL is kept in reset state.
■
When deasserted, the PLL is active and locks to the input
reference clock.
coreclkout
Output Clock signal
FPGA fabric-transceiver interface clock in bonded modes.
