Measure the
rxphy_clk
or
txphy_clk
frequency by connecting the clock to the
CLKOUT
pin on the
FPGA. The frequency should be the same as link clock frequency.
Link Layer
Verify the RX PHY-link layer interface operation through these signals in the

• jesd204_rx_pcs_data
• jesd204_rx_pcs_data_valid
• jesd204_rx_pcs_kchar_data
• jesd204_rx_pcs_errdetect
• jesd204_rx_pcs_disperr
Verify the RX link layer operation through these signals in the
<ip_variant_name>

Use the
rxlink_clk
signal as the sampling clock.
Verify the TX PHY-link layer interface operation through these signals in the

Altera recommends that you verify the JESD204B functionality by accessing the DAC SPI registers or any
debug feature provided by the DAC manufacturer.
