Under what conditions might the Deterministic Latency PHY fail to achieve rx_syncstatus when implementing the OBSAI protocol in Cyclone V devices?

Environment

BUILT IN - ARTICLE INTRO SECOND COMPONENT
Description

When implementing the OBSAI protocol using the Deterministic Latency PHY in Cyclone® V devices, you may fail to achieve rx_syncstatus when IDLE, IDLE_ACK and IDLE_REQ patterns are sent during the link up process. You can achieve synchronization by retriggering rx_patternalign or asserting rx_digitalreset.

This applies to the Deterministic Latency PHY with the following configuration.

  • Data Rate: 3.072 Gbps
  • PMA-PCS Data Width: 20-bits
