Dynamic Reconfiguration
As silicon progresses towards smaller process nodes, circuit performance is affected
more by variations due to process, voltage, and temperature (PVT). These process
variations result in analog voltages that can be offset from required ranges. The
calibration performed by the dynamic reconfiguration interface compensates for
variations due to PVT.
Each channel and each TX PLL have separate dynamic reconfiguration interfaces. The
MegaWizard Plug-In Manager provides informational messages on the connectivity
of these interfaces. Example 9–1 shows the messages for a single duplex channel
parameterized for the 1.25 GIGE protocol.
Although you must initially create a separate reconfiguration interface for each
channel and TX PLL in your design, when the Quartus II software compiles your
design, it reduces the number of reconfiguration interfaces by merging
reconfiguration interfaces. The synthesized design typically includes a
reconfiguration interface for at least three channels because three channels share an
Avalon-MM slave interface which connects to the Transceiver Reconfiguration
Controller IP Core. Conversely, you cannot connect the three channels that share an
Avalon-MM interface to different Transceiver Reconfiguration Controller IP Cores.
Doing so causes a Fitter error. For more information, refer toTransceiver
Reconfiguration Controller to PHY IP Connectivity.
Table 919 describes the signals in the reconfiguration interface. This interface uses
the Avalon-MM PHY Management interface clock.
Transceiver dynamic reconfiguration requires that you assign the starting channel
number if you are using ×6 or ×N bonding. Logical channel 0 should be assigned to
either physical transceiver channel 1 or channel 4 of a transceiver bank. However, if
you have already created a PCB with a different lane assignment for logical lane 0,
you can use the workaound shown in Example 9–2 to remove this restriction.
Example 9–2 redefines the
pma_bonding_master
parameter using the Quartus II
Example 9–1. Informational Messages for the Transceiver Reconfiguration Interface
PHY IP will require 2 reconfiguration interfaces for connection to the external
reconfiguration controller.
Reconfiguration interface offset 0 is connected to the transceiver channel.
Reconfiguration interface offset 1 is connected to the transmit PLL.
