6.16.1.1. Enabling the PRBS Data Generator in non bonded designs

You must perform a sequence of read-modify-writes to addresses 0x006, 0x007, 0x008, and 0x110 to enable either the PRBS data generator. To enable either the PRBS data generator, follow these steps:
  1. Perform the necessary steps from steps 1 to 7 in Steps to Perform Dynamic Reconfiguration.
  2. Perform a read-modify-write to address 0x006 according to Register Map for PRBS Generators for bonded and non bonded designs.
  3. Perform a read-modify-write to address 0x007 according to Register Map for PRBS Generators for bonded and non bonded designs.
  4. Perform a read-modify-write to address 0x008 according to Register Map for PRBS Generators for bonded and non bonded designs.
  5. Perform a read-modify-write to address 0x110 with the specified width. This data width is either 64-bit or 10-bit.
  6. Perform the necessary steps from steps 9 to 12 in Steps to Perform Dynamic Reconfiguration.
    To disable the PRBS generator, write the original values back into the read-modify-write addresses in Register Map for PRBS Generators for bonded and non bonded designs.
