6.2. Configuration Registers

This section describes the F-Tile PMA/FEC Direct PHY Intel® FPGA IP soft CSR registers and F-Tile PMA/FEC Direct PHY Multirate Intel FPGA IP reconfiguration soft CSR registers. The F-Tile PMA/FEC Direct PHY Intel® FPGA IP soft CSR registers (20'h800 - 20'h818) are repeated for all fractures available in each of the reconfiguration subset mode. Refer to Address Offset for the 12 Fractures Available in One F-Tile for more details.

The F-Tile PMA/FEC Direct PHY Multirate Intel FPGA IP reconfiguration soft CSR registers from byte address 20'h820 - 20'h82C are present only the 1st fracture of the reconfiguration subset. You can control these registers to change the fracture from one setting to another setting within the reconfiguration subset mode.

An additional read-only status register, fracture_active is present in the F-Tile PMA/FEC Direct PHY Multirate Intel FPGA IP at address 20’h81C. The register contains the fracture active status. This register value changes after each configuration. Refer to Controlling the Fracture for Reconfiguration Subset: 100G-4 and Fracture Count=1 for an example.
