Stratix V Native Phy

[Altera_Forum]

Hi all 

i'm working on "Transceiver Signal Integrity Development Kit" with strativ V GX. i'v already worked with 10Gbase-R Transceiver phy with no problem, and i tested my design with an Ethernet analyzer Device. but i need to use Native Phy in PMA Direct mode, to use the line data for mapping in another protocol. in first step i tried to loop the rx data to tx data, to test the design with Ethernet analyzer, but it doesn't work, when tx data rate is 10Gbit/s, the rx data rate is approx. 8Gbit/s. indeed, rx data rate is always less than tx data rate. something is wrong, but i can't understand what is. i'v studied all altera documents about Transceivers and i'v reviewed the altera online training in this field. has anybody no idea about that. i can present more details about my design in case of need. even attach the project here. thanks a lot

Read through the Transceiver Toolkit notes I wrote near the top of this page: 

 https://www.ovro.caltech.edu/~dwh/correlator/cobra_docs.html  Perhaps there will be something that helps in there. Take a look at the Arria V GZ document too, that device uses the same PHY as the Stratix V.  Cheers, Dave

Hi all 

there's no answer to help me in this issue?? i could redefine the problem again: i want to use stratix v Transceiver in PMA Direct mode to loop the incoming data from optical interface. i tested different approaches, but none of them could help me to find the final solution. i'm waiting yet

I recommend that you open a Service Request with Altera.

There is no point in submitting a Service Request if you cannot submit a simulation demonstrating the issue.  The examples I posted should have simulation examples, so you can use those as the basis of your simulation.  Cheers. Dave

Did u solved this? If u have solved , can you tell me the way. Thanks.
