Port
Direction Clock Domain Description
Pll_powerdown
Input Asynchronous Resets the PLL when asserted high. Needs to be connected
to a dynamically controlled signal (the Transceiver PHY
Reset Controller pll_powerdown output if using this Intel
FPGA IP).
Pll_reflck0
Input N/A Reference clock input port 0. There are five reference clock
input ports. The number of reference clock ports available
depends on the Number of PLL reference clocks parameter.
tx_serial_clk
Output N/A High speed serial clock output port for GX channels.
Represents the x1 clock network.
For Gen1x1, Gen2x1, connect the output from this port to
the tx_serial_clk input of the native PHY IP.
For Gen1x2, x4, x8, use the tx_bonding_clocks output
port to connect to the Native PHY IP.
For Gen2x2, x4, x8, use the tx_bonding_clocks output
port to connect to the Native PHY IP.
For Gen3x1, connect the output from this port to one of
the two tx_serial_clk input ports on the native PHY IP.
For Gen3x2, x4, x8, connect the output from this port to
the Auxiliary Master CGB clock input port of the ATX PLL IP.
