Description
Clocks and Resets
pll_ref_clk
1
Input
Transceiver reference clock signal. The
reference clock selection depends on the
FPGA device family and data rate.
This signal is only applicable for V series
FPGA variants.
txlink_clk
1
Input
TX link clock signal. This clock is equal to the
TX data rate divided by 40. This clock must
have the same frequency as the
txphy_clk
signal but can be differential in phase due to a
different clock network.
For Subclass 1, you cannot use the output of
txphy_clk
signal as
txlink_clk
signal . To
sample
SYSREF
correctly, the core PLL must
provide the
txlink_clk
signal and must be
configured as normal operating mode.
txlink_rst_n_reset_n
1
Input
Reset for the TX link clock signal. This reset is
an active low signal.
txphy_clk[]
L
Output
TX parallel clock output for the TX PCS. This
clock must have the same frequency as
txlink_clk
signal.
This clock is output as an optional port for
user if the
txlink_clk
and
txframe_clk
signals are operating at the same frequency in
Subclass 0 operating mode.
tx_digitalreset[]
(22)
L
Input
Reset for the transceiver PCS block. This reset
is an active high signal.
tx_analogreset[]
(22)
L
Input
Reset for the transceiver PMA block. This
reset is an active high signal.

The Transceiver PHY Reset Controller IP Core controls this signal.
