8 Bit slip 8
rx_std_wa_patt
ernalign has no
effect on word
alignment. The
single width word
aligner updates the
word boundary,
only when the
FPGA fabric-
asserted BITSLIP
signal toggles.
N/A N/A
Manual 8, 16 Word alignment is
controlled by
rx_std_wa_patt
ernalign and is
edge-sensitive to
this signal.
Asserted high for
one parallel clock
cycle when the
word aligner aligns
to a new boundary.
Asserted high for
one parallel clock
cycle when the word
alignment pattern
appears in the
current word
boundary.
10 Bit slip 7
rx_std_wa_patt
ernalign has no
effect on word
alignment. The
single width word
aligner updates the
word boundary,
only when the
FPGA fabric-
asserted BITSLIP
signal toggles.
N/A N/A
Manual 7, 10 Word alignment is
controlled by
rx_std_wa_patt
ernalign and is
level-sensitive to
this signal.
Asserted high for
one parallel clock
cycle when the
word aligner aligns
to a new boundary.
Asserted high for
one parallel clock
cycle when the word
alignment pattern
appears in the
current word
boundary.
Deterministic latency
(CPRI mode only)
10 Word alignment is
controlled by
rx_std_wa_patt
ernalign (edge-
sensitive to this
signal) and the
state machine
works in
conjunction with
PMA to achieve
deterministic
latency on the RX
path for CPRI and
OBSAI applications.

Stays high as long
as the
