Receiver Equalizer Stage 2, 3, 4 Bypass
Description
Bypass continuous time equalizer stages 2, 3, and 4 to save power. This setting eliminates significant AC
gain on the equalizer and is appropriate for chip-to-chip short range communication on a PCB. Assigning
a value to this setting and
XCVR_ANALOG_SETTINGS_PROTOCOL
results in a Quartus II Fitter error as shown
in the following example:
Error (21215)
