Notes to Table 2–29:
(1) When J = 3 to 10, use the serializer/deserializer (SERDES) block.
(2) When J = 1 or 2, bypass the SERDES block.
(3) This applies to LVDS source synchronous mode only.
(4) This applies to DPA and soft-CDR modes only.
(5) Clock Boost Factor (W) is the ratio between the input data rate and the input clock rate.
(6) This is achieved by using the LVDS clock network.
(7) The minimum specification depends on the clock source (for example, the PLL and clock pin) and the clock routing resource (global, regional, or local) that
you use. The I/O differential buffer and input register do not have a minimum toggle rate.
(8) You must calculate the leftover timing margin in the receiver by performing link timing closure analysis. You must consider the board skew margin, transmitter
channel-to-channel skew, and receiver sampling margin to determine the leftover timing margin.
(9) You can estimate the achievable maximum data rate for non-DPA mode by performing link timing closure analysis. You must consider the board skew margin,
transmitter delay margin, and receiver sampling margin to determine the maximum data rate supported.
Figure 2–1 shows the DPA lock time specifications with the DPA PLL calibration
option enabled.
