AXI ADXCVR#

The AXI ADXCVR utility IP core is used to control and configure the highspeed transceivers. There are separate AXI ADXCVR cores for Intel and AMD Xilinx designs, due to the small differences between the AMD Xilinx’s and Intel’s transceivers architecture. For the AMD Xilinx architecture, the transceivers are instantiated in UTIL_ADXCVR.

Features#

  • Supports Intel and AMD Xilinx devices.

  • Software can access the core’s registers through an AXI4 Lite Memory Mapped interface.

  • Link reset and monitor for Intel and AMD Xilinx.

  • Reconfiguration interface control with broadcast capability for AMD Xilinx.

  • Access to the Statistical eye scan interface of the PHY (AMD Xilinx).

  • Supports up to 16 transceiver lanes per link (AMD Xilinx).

Intel Devices#

For Intel devices, the ADI JESD204 IP is using the AXI ADXCVR core, which can be accessed by the link_management interface. It provides a global reset signal for the JESD204B framework. Resets the XCVR reset controller IP, the link PLL reset controller, the PHY itself, and also the link layer of the stack. Besides the reset generation, monitors the PLLs and the PHY state.

Software Guidelines#

When the board powers up, both ATX and fPLL’s must have a stable reference clock in order to lock automatically. If this requirement can not be respected by the system (e.g. the reference clocks are generated by a device that requires software configuration, through an interface implemented in FPGA), the software needs to reconfigure both PLLs, and just after that resets the transceivers.

AMD Xilinx Devices#

In AMD Xilinx Devices, the core configures itself to be interfaced with the GT variant supported by the UTIL_ADXCVR core. All the transceiver primitives are configured and programmed identically.

Software Guidelines#

The system must have active DRP and reference clocks before any software access. The software is expected to write necessary control parameters to LPM_DFE_N, RATE, SYSCLK_SEL, OUTCLK_SEL register bits and then set RESETN bit to 0x1. After that, monitor the STATUS bit to be set. There are no other requirements for initialization.

The DRP access is identical for common and channel interfaces. The SEL bits may be set to a specific transceiver lane or 0xff to broadcast. A write to the CONTROL register (bits WR, ADDR, WDATA) initiates DRP access in hardware. A read to this register has no effect. In order to write to the transceiver, set WR to 0x1 with the address. In order to read from the transceiver, set WR to 0x0 with the address. As soon as this register is written, the BUSY signal is set and is cleared only after the access is complete. The broadcast read is a logical OR of all the channels. After an access is started, do NOT interrupt the core for any reason (including setting RESETN to 0x0), allow the access to finish itself. Though the core itself is immune to a software abort, the transceiver may fail on further accesses and may require a system-wide reset.

The eye-scan feature also allows a SEL option and a broadcast has the effect of a combined mask. That is, the error counter will be zero ONLY if all the transceiver error counters are zero. To start eye-scan, set ES_REQ to 0x1 and wait for the same bit to self-clear. If eye-scan needs to be stopped, set the ES_REQ bit to 0x0.
