Figure 17. GT Transceiver Channel in Full Duplex Mode Operating Between 17.4 Gbps
and 25.8 Gbps
Notes:
(3) The Standard PCS and PCIe Gen3 PCS blocks are available when the GT channel is configured as a GX transceiver channel.
(1) The Enhanced PCS must be configured in Basic low latency mode to support data rate range from 17.4 Gbps to 25.8 Gbps.
(2) The FPGA Fabric - PCS and PCS-PMA interface widths are configurable.

GT Channel Configuration PCS Type Data Rates Supported
GT Standard PCS Not available for GT configuration
Enhanced PCS 17.4 Gbps to 25.8 Gbps

PCIe Gen3 PCS Not available for GT configuration
GX Standard PCS 1.0 Gbps to 12 Gbps
Enhanced PCS 1.0 Gbps

to 17.4 Gbps
PCIe Gen3 PCS 8 Gbps
Note: 1. The GT channels can also operate in PCS Direct configuration for data rates from
1.0 Gbps to 25.8 Gbps. The PCS Direct datapath that bypasses all PCS blocks is
the primary configuration used to support GT data rates from 17.4 Gbps to 25.8
Gbps. To operate GX and GT transceiver channels in PCS Direct designated data
rates, refer to the IntelArria 10 Device Datasheet for more details on power
supply, speed grade, and transceiver configurations requirement.
2. The minimum operational data rate is 1.0 Gbps for both the transmitter and
receiver. For transmitter data rates less than 1.0 Gbps, oversampling must be
applied at the transmitter. For receiver data rates less than 1.0 Gbps,
oversampling must be applied at the receiver.
3. To operate GX and GT transceiver channels with the PCS at designated data rates,
refer to the IntelArria 10 Device Datasheet for more details on power supply,
speed grade, and transceiver configurations requirement.
(7)
The Enhanced PCS must be configured in Basic low latency mode to support data rate range
from 17.4 Gbps to 25.8 Gbps.
(8)
Applies when operating in reduced power modes. For standard power modes, the Enhanced
PCS minimum data rate is 1600 Mbps.
