Table 37: Full and Half Rate Serialization
Mode Description Example
Full rate clock In full rate mode, the fast clock runs at
the same frequency as the data and
captures data on the positive clock
edge.
Data rate: 800 Mbps
Serialization/Deserialization factor: 8
Slow clock frequency: 100 Mhz (800 Mbps / 8)
Fast clock frequency: 800 Mhz
Half rate clock In half rate mode, the fast clock runs at
half the speed of the data and captures
data on both clock edges.
Data rate: 800 Mbps
Serialization / Deserialization factor: 8
Slow clock frequency: 100 Mhz (800 Mbps / 8)
Fast clock frequency: 400 Mhz (800 / 2 )
You use a PLL to generate the serial (fast) and parallel (slow) clocks for the LVDS pins. The
slow clock runs at the data rate divided by the serialization factor.
LVDS RX
You can configure an HSIO block as one LVDS RX signal.
