The Slice2Persist function takes as its input a data waveform and a clock signal. The clock must
consist of a sequence of time values that increase at the nominal unit interval for each successive
sample. For example, a 2.5 Gb/s bit stream should have a clock input consisting of the numbers
0, 4e-10, 8e-10, 12e-10, …, which increase at a 400 ps per UI rate. The clock signal is derived
from the output of the TIE@lvl parameter, which contains a sequence of adjustment values that
are added to the nominal bit period for each UI. These correction values allow the TIE@lvl
parameter to act as a phase locked loop. The web edit setup is shown as follows:
