2.6. Channel Bonding

The GTS JESD204B IP supports bonded mode for transmitter and duplex channel bonding.

A bonded transmitter datapath clocking provides low channel-to-channel skew as compared to non-bonded channel configurations.

GTS JESD204B IP supports Transmitter System and PMA bonding when the number of lanes selected fall within the range of 2, 4, 6, and 8.

In bonded channel configuration, the lower transceiver clock skew for all channels result in a lower channel-to-channel skew. For Agilex™ 5 and Agilex™ 3 devices, you must use contiguous channels to enable channel bonding with NRZ PMA transceiver channels.
