Note: This register can be reprogrammed when the PHY is under reset.
Table A. 25. Receive PLL Current Charge Pump [reg6a]
These bits define the Rx CDR PLL charge pump current
when the CDR PLL is frequency locked and running in PCIe
Gen1 speed or in any other non-PCIe protocols.

Table A. 26. PCS Loopback Control [reg74]
Rx data polarity control.
1’b1 – inverts the polarity of data on the received data.
1’b0 – normal operation.
Tx data polarity control.
1’b1 – inverts the polarity of data on the transmitted
data.
1’b0 – normal operation.
Far-end loopback control.
1’b1 – activates the far-end loopback through PCIe
elastic buffer fifo, assuming 0ppm between recovered
clock and transmitted clock. In case of different
reference clock, the PMA Tx PLL reference clock can use
the CDR clock, allowing to re-transmit loopback data
through the elastic buffer FIFO put in transparent
mode.
1’b0 – normal operation.
Reports if mesochronous clock alignment state machine
has completed its process, thus having aligned CDR
receive clock to transmit clock.
1’b1 – completed.
1’b0 – not yet completed.
Enables the mesochronous loopback mode which forces
PMA received data to be re-transmitted on the PMA Tx
interface. This mode requires that no PPM exists between
Rx data and Tx data (thus that both sides of the link use
the same reference clock), and performs alignment of CDR
clock to transmit clock using the PMA CDR PLL skip bit
functionality. This alignment is automatically performed
by a state machine when this loopback register is set.
1’b1 – enabling the mesochronous loopback mode,
1’b0 – normal operation.
Enables the parallel loopback mode which forces the
transmitted PIPE 10-bit encoded data to be loopback to
the receiver PIPE Rx interface.
1’b1 – enabling the parallel loopback mode.
