4.4.1. LVDS SERDES Receiver Blocks

The receiver has a differential buffer and I/O PLLs that you can share among the transmitter and receiver, a DPA block, a synchronizer, a data realignment block, and a deserializer. The True Differential Signaling buffer can receive LVDS, mini-LVDS, RSDS, and LVPECL compatible signaling. You can statically set the I/O standard of the receiver pins to True Differential Signaling in the Intel® Quartus® Prime software Assignment Editor or .qsf file.

Note: The PLL that drives the SERDES channel must operate in integer PLL mode. You do not need a PLL if you bypass the deserializer
Table 70.  Dedicated Circuitry and Features of the LVDS SERDES Receiver
Dedicated Circuitry / Feature Description
Differential I/O buffer Supports True Differential Signaling compatible with LVDS, RSDS, Mini-LVDS, and LVPECL
SERDES Up to 10-bit wide deserializer
Phase-locked loops (PLLs) Generates different phases of a clock for data synchronizer
Data realignment (Bit slip) Inserts bit latencies into serial data
DPA Chooses a phase closest to the phase of the serial data
Synchronizer (FIFO buffer) Compensate for phase differences between the data and the receiver’s input reference clock
