The XCVR HSMC loopback demonstration is a project to test XCVR HSMC Loopback function.
The system generate data pattern and transport data through the xcvr channel. Meanwhile, the
system receives the data through the loopback daughter card and checks it. Altera IP
data pattern
generator
and
data pattern checker
are responsible for generating and checking the data pattern.
The Nios II CPU checks the test result. The test result is shown through LEDG0~LEDG3 and also
displayed in the nios2-treminal period. If the loopback test function not working , the program will
terminal and the LEDs will all turn off.
