tx_preemp[4..0]
(1)
Input
This is an optional pre-emphasis write control for the transmit buffer. Depending on what
value you set at this input, the controller dynamically writes the value to the pre-emphasis
control register of the transmit buffer.
The width of this signal is fixed to 5 bits if you enable either the Use
'logical_channel_address' port for Analog controls reconfiguration option or the Use
same control signal for all the channels option in the Analog controls screen. Otherwise,
the width of this signal is 5 bits per channel.

rx_eqctrl[3..0]
(1)
Input
This is an optional write control to write an equalization control value for the receive side of
the PMA.
The width of this signal is fixed to 4 bits if you enable either the Use
'logical_channel_address' port for Analog controls reconfiguration option or the Use
same control signal for all the channels option in the Analog controls screen. Otherwise,
the width of this signal is 4 bits per channel.
