40.3.2. Configuration
Functional Parameter
The functional parameter allows you to configure the test pattern generator as a whole: Throttle Seed—The starting value for the throttle control random number generator. Intel recommends a value which is unique to each instance of the test pattern generator and checker cores in a system.
Output Interface
You can configure the output interface of the test pattern generator core using the following parameters:
- Number of Channels—The number of channels that the test pattern generator core supports. Valid values are 1 to 256.
- Data Bits Per Symbol—The number of bits per symbol for the input and output interfaces. Valid values are 1 to 256. Example—For typical systems that carry 8-bit bytes, set this parameter to 8.
- Data Symbols Per Beat—The number of symbols (words) that are transferred per beat. Valid values are 1 to 256.
- Include Packet Support—Indicates whether or not packet transfers are supported. Packet support includes the startofpacket, endofpacket, and empty signals.
- Error Signal Width (bits)—The width of the error signal on the output interface. Valid values are 0 to 31. A value of 0 indicates that the error signal is not used.
