SRIO Functional Description

Descriptions (continued)
Bit Field Value Description
15–12 DE 0000b–1111b De-emphasis. Selects one of 15 output de-emphasis settings from 4.76 to 71.42%.
De-emphasis provides a means to compensate for high frequency attenuation in the
attached media. It causes the output amplitude to be smaller for bits which are not
preceded by a transition than for bits which are. See Table 12 .
11–9 SWING 000b–111b Output swing. Selects one of 8 outputs amplitude settings between 125 and
1250mV
dfpp
. See Table 13 .
8 CM Common mode. Adjusts the common mode to suit the termination at the attached
receiver. For output swing settings above 750mV, this reduced common mode can
cause distortion of the waveform. Under these conditions, this bit should be set high to
offset some of the common mode reduction.
0 Normal common mode. Common mode not adjusted.
1 Raised common mode. Common mode raised by 5% of difference between RIOTXn
and RIOTXn
7 INVPAIR Invert polarity. Inverts the polarity of RIOTXn and RIOTXn.
0 Normal polarity. RIOTXn is considered to be positive data and RIOTXn negative.
1 Inverted polarity. RIOTXn is considered to be negative data and RIOTXn positive.
6–5 RATE Operating rate. Selects full, half, or quarter rate operation.
00b Full rate. Two data samples taken per PLL output clock cycle.
01b Half rate. One data sample taken per PLL output clock cycle.
10b Quarter rate. One data sample taken every two PLL output clock cycles.
11b Reserved
4–2 BUSWIDTH 000b Bus width. Always write 000b to this field, to indicate a 10-bit-wide parallel bus to the
clock. All other values are reserved. See Section 2.3.2.1 for an explanation of the bus.
1 Reserved 0 Always write 0 to this reserved bit.
0 ENTX Enable transmitter
0 Disable this transmitter.
1 Enable this transmitter.
