Each Lane Is
Frame-Locked
in a Different
Cycle
After deskew is successful, the user
logic asserts rd_en for all lanes to start
reading data from the RX FIFO.
data_valid is asserted,
indicating that the RX FIFO
is outputting valid data.
Deassertion of pempty
of all lanes before any
lane pfull goes high,
which means the deskew
is complete.
How to Implement Interlaken in Arria 10 Transceivers
Before you begin
You should be familiar with the Interlaken protocol, Enhanced PCS and PMA architecture, PLL architec‐
ture, and the reset controller before implementing the Interlaken protocol PHY layer.
Arria 10 devices provide three preset variations for Interlaken in the IP Parameter Editor:
• Interlaken 10x12.5 Gbps
• Interlaken 1x6.25 Gbps
• Interlaken 6x10.3 Gbps
1. Instantiate the Arria 10 Transceiver Native PHY IP from the IP Catalog (Installed IP > Library >
Interface Protocols > Transceiver PHY > Arria 10 Transceiver Native PHY).
Refer to Select and Instantiate the PHY IP Core on page 2-2 for more details.
2. Select Interlaken from the Transceiver configuration rules list located under Datapath Options,
depending on which protocol you are implementing.
3. Use the parameter values in the tables in Native PHY IP Parameter Settings for Interlaken. Or you
can use the protocol presets described in Presets. You can then modify the settings to meet your
specific requirements.
4. Click Generate to generate the Native PHY IP (this is your RTL file).
