For standard commercial variant where dip switches are populated, the frequency of all the
three SERDES banks' reference clock is selectable between 100MHz and 125MHz by three bits
of switcher S1.
The setting of these three bits of S1 or GPIOs depends on the protocols running at the SERDES
lanes of each bank. When the SERDES lanes are running at the speed of 3.125 Gbps, then the
corresponding bank reference clock should be set as 125 MHz, and at the speed besides 3.125
Gbps, it should be set as 100 MHz. For example, if lanes in bank 1 are configured as PCIE, then
the bank 1 reference clock should be set as 100 MHz, and if XAUI, then should be set as 125
MHz.
