Name Value Description
Data rate Device
dependent
Specifies the data rate in Mbps. Refer to
Stratix V Device Datasheet for the data rate
ranges of datapath.
Base data rate 1 × Data rate
2 × Data rate
4 × Data rate
Select a base data rate that minimizes the
number of PLLs required to generate all the
clocks required for data transmission. By
selecting an appropriate base data rate, you
can change data rates by changing the
divider used by the clock generation block.
For higher frequency data rates 2 × and 4×
base data rates are not available.
Input clock frequency Variable Specifies the frequency of the PLL input
reference clock. The Input clock frequency
drop down menu is populated with all valid
frequencies derived as a function of the data
rate and base data rate. However, if you
select fb_compensation as the bonding
mode, then the input reference clock
frequency is limited to the (data rate) /
(PCS-PMA interface width).
The following table lists Standard and 10G datapath widths for the FPGA fabric-transceiver interface, the
PCS-PMA interface, and the resulting frequencies for the tx_clkout and rx_clkout parallel clocks. In
almost all cases, the parallel clock frequency is described by the following equation:
frequency
parallel clock
= data rate/FPGA fabrictransceiver interface width
Note:
The FPGA fabric transceiver interface width is always 128 bits for the GT datapath.
