RX Settings
Option
Description
Line Rate
Set to the desired target line rate in Gbps. Can be independent of the transmit
line rate. The line rate has option of selecting No_RX. This option disables all
the RX ports in the wrapper when selected.
The PCI EXPRESS example uses 2.5 Gbps.
Decoding
None
Data stream is passed with no conversion.
None (MSB First)
Same as above but reorders bytes for applications expecting most significant
byte first.
8B/10B
Data stream is passed to an internal 8B/10B encoder prior to transmission.
Data Path Width
8
Sets both the internal receiver data path and the receiver application interface
data path width to a single 8-bit byte.
10
Sets the internal receiver data path width to a single 10-bit byte. If 8B/10B
encoding is selected, the receiver application interface data path width will be
set to 8 bits.
16
Sets the internal receiver data path width to a single 8-bit byte. Sets the
receiver application interface data path width to two 8-bit bytes (16 bits).
20
Sets the internal receiver data path width to a single 10-bit byte. If 8B/10B
encoding is selected, the receiver application interface data path width will be
set to two 8-bit bytes (16 bits). If 8B/10B encoding is not selected, the receiver
application interface data path width will be set to two 10-bit bytes (20 bits).
32
Sets the internal receiver data path width to a single 8-bit byte. Sets the
receiver application interface data path width to four 8-bit bytes (32 bits).
40
Sets the internal receiver data path width to a single 10-bit byte. If 8B/10B
encoding is selected, the receiver application interface data path width will be
set to four 8-bit bytes (32 bits). If 8B/10B encoding is not selected, the receiver
application interface data path width will be set to four 10-bit bytes (40 bits).
