Synchronization and Clocking
The Synchronization and Clocking screen (page 4) of the Wizard (
) provides
settings for latency, buffering, and clocking of the transmitter and receiver. The RX comma
alignment settings are also provided.
lists the source signal options and
lists the optional ports.
The
Enable TX buffer
setting controls whether the TX buffer is enabled or bypassed. See
the
Spartan-6 FPGA GTP Transceivers User Guide
for details on this setting.
The PCI EXPRESS example uses the TX buffer.
The
Enable RX buffer
setting controls whether the RX buffer is enabled or bypassed. If the
RX buffer is deselected, then the RX Phase Alignment circuit is enabled.
The PCI EXPRESS example does not use the RX Phase Alignment circuit.
