Option Description
Use External PLL
Turn on this option to use an external PLL to clock the
SERDES transmitter. When you turn on this option, the
options on the Frequency/PLL settings page are disabled. You
must use a separate PLL to provide the clocking source and
make the necessary connections. You must ensure your circuit
has the correct input and functionality to generate an
appropriate clock frequency and is correctly connected to the
LVDS transmitter.
When you have a deserialization factor of two, the IP core
bypasses SERDES and implements the SERDES functionality in
DDR registers. Your design requires a deserialization factor of
at least four to turn on the external PLL option.
If you turn off this option, the IP core automatically
implements an internal PLL to clock the ALTLVDS_TX block.
For Stratix and Stratix GX devices, if you implement SERDES
for your LVDS transmitter using a dedicated SERDES block,
you do not have the option to use an external PLL.
Use 'tx_data_reset' input port
This option is available when you implement the LVDS in logic
cells. When you turn on this option, it adds an input port in the
IP core, which when asserted asynchronously resets all the logic
in the ALTLVDS_TX IP core excluding the PLL.
Frequency/ PLL Settings (page 4)
The options on this page are available only when you are using internal PLL
What is the output data rate? Specifies the data rate for the output channel of the transmitter,
in Megabits per second (Mbps). For data rate ranges, refer to
the Device Data Sheet chapter in the relevant device handbook.
This option determines the legal value of the input clock rate.
Specify input clock rate by Specifies the clock frequency (tx_inclock port) or the clock
(inclock_period parameter) going into the internal PLL. The
legal values depend on the output data rate selected.
What is the phase alignment of 'tx_in'
with respect to the rising edge of 'tx_
inclock'? (in degrees)
Determines the phase alignment of the data transmitted by the
core logic array with respect to the tx_inclock clock.
The available values are 0.00, 22.50, 45.00, 67.50, 90.00,
112.50, 135.00, 157.50, 180.00, 202.50, 225.00, 247.50, 270.00,
292.50, 315.00, and 337.50.
The values for this option are device dependent.
