Design Considerations for Data Rates Above 17.4 Gbps Using Arria 10 GT Channels
This section provides information on using the Arria 10 GT transceiver channels to achieve data rates
from 17.4 to 28.3 Gbps. Arria 10 GT transceiver channels are used to implement data rates above 17.4
Gbps.
GT channels can be used in Enhanced PCS Low Latency mode to support data rates from 17.4 Gbps to
28.3 Gbps. GT channels can also operate in PCS-Direct configuration for data rates up to 28.3 Gbps.
When GT channels are used in PCS-Direct configuration, the PCS blocks are bypassed. The serializer /
deserializer in GT channels supports 64 bit and 128 bit serialization factors.
Arria 10 GT Channel Usage
All Arria 10 GT devices have a total of 16 GT transceiver channels that can support data rates up to 28.3
Gbps.
In Arria 10 GT devices, each transceiver bank supports up to 4 GT channels that can operate as a duplex
channel, TX only, or RX only channel. Transceiver banks GXBL1E, GXBL1F, GXBL1G, and GXBL1H
each contain four GT transceiver channels - 0, 1, 3 and 4. Channels 2 and 5 can only be configured as GX
transceiver channels.
