(most significant word followed by least significant word). most-significant-bit-first protocols should reverse the bit order of word align patterns programmed. this module detects word boundaries for 8b/10b-based protocols. this module is also used to align to specific programmable patterns in prbs7/23 test mode. pattern detection the programmable pattern detection logic can be programmed to align word boundaries using a single 7- or 10-bit pattern. the pattern detector can either do an exact match, or match the exact pattern and the d9 d8 d7 d6 d5 d4 d3 d2 d1 d0 d9 d8 d7 d6 d5 d4 d3 d2 d1 d0 to word aligner clock recovery unit low -speed parallel recovered clock high-speed serial recovered clock received data 10

altera corporation 2?19 may 2008 arria gx device handbook, volume 1 arria gx architecture deactivated, the rx_syncstatus signal acts as a re-synchronization signal to signify that the alignment pattern has been detected but not locked on a different word boundary. when using the synchroni zation state machine, the rx_syncstatus signal indicates the link status. if the rx_syncstatus signal is high, link synchronization is achieved. if the rx_syncstatus signal is low, link synchronization has not yet been achi eved, or there were enough code group errors to lose synchronization. f for more information about manual alignment modes, refer to the arria gx device handbook . the rx_patterndetect signal pulses high during a new alignment and whenever the alignment pattern occurs on the current word boundary. programmable run length violation the word aligner supports a programmable run length violation counter. whenever the number of the contin uous ?0? (or ?1?) exceeds a user programmable value, the rx_rlv signal goes high for a minimum pulse width of two recovered clock cycles . the maximum run values supported are 128 ui for 8-bit serialization or 160 ui for 10-bit serialization. running disparity check the running disparity error rx_disperr and running disparity value rx_runningdisp are sent along with alig ned data from the 8b/10b decoder to the fpga. you can ignore or act on the reported running disparity value and running disparity error signals. bit-slip mode the word aligner can operate in either pattern detection mode or in bit-slip mode.
2?20 altera corporation arria gx device handbook, volume 1 may 2008 transceivers the bit-slip mode provides the op tion to manually shift the word boundary through the fpga. this feature is useful for: longer synchronization patterns than the pattern detector can accommodate scrambled data stream input stream consisting of over-sampled data the word aligner outputs a word boundary as it is received from the analog receiver after reset. you can examine the word and search its boundary in the fpga. to do so, assert the rx_bitslip signal. the rx_bitslip signal should be toggled and held constant for at least two fpga clock cycles. for every rising edge of the rx_bitslip signal, the current word boundary is slipped by one bit. every time a bit is slipped, the bit received earliest is lost. if bit slipping shifts a complete round of bus width, the word boundary is back to the original boundary. the rx_syncstatus signal is not available in bit-slipping mode. channel aligner the channel aligner is available only in xaui mode and aligns the signals of all four channels within a transc eiver. the channel aligner follows the ieee 802.3ae, clause 48 specif ication for channel bonding. the channel aligner is a 16-word fifo buffer with a state machine controlling the channel bonding proce ss. the state machine looks for an /a/ (/k28.3/) in each channel and alig ns all the /a/ code groups in the transceiver. when four columns of /a/ (denoted by //a//) are detected, the rx_channelaligned signal goes high, signifying that all the channels in the transceiver have been aligned. the reception of four consecutive misaligned /a/ code groups restarts the channel alignment sequence and sends the rx_channelaligned signal low.
altera corporation 2?21 may 2008 arria gx device handbook, volume 1 arria gx architecture figure 2?16 shows misaligned channels before the channel aligner and the aligned channels after the channel aligner. figure 2?16. before and af ter the channel aligner rate matcher in asynchronous systems, the upstream transmitter and local receiver may be clocked with independent re ference clock sources. frequency differences in the order of a few hundred ppm can potentially corrupt the data at the receiver. the rate matcher compensates for small clock frequency differences between the upstream transmitter an d the local receiver clocks by inserting or removing skip characters from the inter packet gap (ipg) or idle streams. it inserts a skip character if the local receiver is running a faster clock than the upstream transmitte r. it deletes a skip character if the local receiver is running a slower cloc k than the upstream transmitter. the quartus ii software au tomatically configures the appropriate skip character as specified in the ieee 802.3 for gige mode and pci-express base specification for pci express (pipe) mode. the rate matcher is bypassed in serial rapidio and must be implemented in the pld logic array or external circuits depe nding on your system design. kr kkk r r rkk r a lane 3 kr kkk r r rkk r a lane 2 kr kkk r r rkk r a lane 1 kr kkk r r rkk r a lane 0 kr kkk r r rkk r a lane 3 kr kkk r r rkk r a lane 2 kr kkk r r rkk r a lane 1 kr kkk r r rkk r a lane 0 before after
2?22 altera corporation arria gx device handbook, volume 1 may 2008 transceivers table 2?5 shows the maximum frequency difference that the rate matcher can tolerate in xaui, pci express (p ipe), gige, and basic functional modes. xaui mode in xaui mode, the rate matcher adhe res to clause 48 of the ieee 802.3ae specification for clock rate compensation. the rate matcher performs clock compensation on columns of /r/ (/k28.0/), denoted by //r//. an //r// is added or deleted automatically based on the number of words in the fifo buffer. pci express (pipe) mode rate matcher in pci express (pipe) mode, the rate matcher can compensate up to 300 ppm (600 ppm total) frequency difference between the upstream transmitter and the receiver. the rate matcher logic looks for skip ordered sets (sos), which contains a /k28.5/ comma followed by three /k28.0/ skip characters. the rate matcher lo gic deletes or inserts /k28.0/ skip characters as necessary from /to the rate matcher fifo. the rate matcher in pci express (pipe) mode has a fifo buffer overflow and underflow protection. in the event of a fifo buffer overflow, the rate matcher deletes any data after detecting the overflow condition to prevent fifo pointer corruption until the rate matcher is not full. in an underflow condition, the rate matche r inserts 9'h1fe (/k30.7/) until the fifo buffer is not empty. these measur es ensure that the fifo buffer can gracefully exit the overflow and un derflow condition without requiring a fifo reset. the rate matcher fifo overflow and underflow condition is indicated on the pipestatus port. you can bypass the rate matcher in pc i express (pipe) mode if you have a synchronous system where the upstream transmitter and local receiver derive their reference clocks from the same source. table 2?5. rate matcher ppm tolerance function mode ppm xaui 100 pci express (pipe) 300 gige 100 basic 300
altera corporation 2?23 may 2008 arria gx device handbook, volume 1 arria gx architecture gige mode rate matcher in gige mode, the rate matcher can compensate up to 100 ppm (200 ppm total) frequency difference between the upstream transmitter and the receiver. the rate matcher lo gic inserts or deletes /i2/ idle ordered sets to/from the rate matche r fifo during the inter-frame or inter-packet gap (ifg or ipg). /i2/ is selected as the rate matching ordered set since it maintains the ru nning disparity, unlike /i1/ that alters the running dispa rity. since the /i2/ or dered-set contains two 10-bit code groups (/k28.5/, /d16.2/), 20 bits are inserted or deleted at a time for rate matching. 1 the rate matcher logic has the capability to insert or delete /c1/ or /c2/ configuration ordered sets when ?gige enhanced? mode is chosen as the sub-prot ocol in the megawizard plug-in manager. if the frequency ppm difference be tween the upstream transmitter and the local receiver is high, or if the pa cket size is too large, the rate matcher fifo buffer can face an over flow or underflow situation. basic mode in basic mode, you can program the skip and control pattern for rate matching. there is no restriction on th e deletion of a skip character in a cluster. the rate matcher deletes the sk ip characters as long as they are available. for insertion, the rate matc her inserts skip characters such that the number of skip characters at th e output of rate matcher does not exceed five. 8b/10b decoder the 8b/10b decoder is used in al l supported functi onal modes. the 8b/10b decoder takes in 10-bit data from the rate matcher and decodes it into 8-bit data + 1-bit control identi fier, thereby restoring the original transmitted data at the receiver. th e 8b/10b decoder indicates whether the received 10-bit character is a data or control code through the rx_ctrldetect port. if the received 10-bit code group is a control character ( kx.y ), the rx_ctrldetect signal is driven high and if it is a data character ( dx.y ), the rx_ctrldetect signal is driven low.
2?24 altera corporation arria gx device handbook, volume 1 may 2008 transceivers figure 2?17 shows a 10-bit code group decoded to an 8-bit data and a 1-bit control indicator. figure 2?17. 10-bit to 8-bit conversion if the received 10-bit code is not a part of valid dx.y or kx.y code groups, the 8b/10b decoder block asserts an error flag on the rx_errdetect port. if the received 10-bit code is detected with incorrect running disparity, the 8b/10b decoder bloc k asserts an error flag on the rx_disperr and rx_errdetect ports. the error flag signals ( rx_errdetect and rx_disperr ) have the same data path delay from the 8b/10b decoder to the pld-transceiver interface as the bad code group. receiver state machine the receiver state machine operates in basic, gige, pci express (pipe), and xaui modes. in gige mode, the receiver state machine replaces invalid code groups with k30.7. in xaui mode, the receiver state machine translates the xaui pcs co de group to the xaui xgmii code group. byte deserializer byte deserializer takes in one-byte wide data from the 8b/10b decoder and deserializes it into a two-byte wide data at half the speed. this allows clocking the pld-receiver interface at half the speed as compared to the receiver pcs logic. the byte deserializer is bypassed in gige mode. 9876543210 8b/10b conversion jhgfiedcba msb received last lsb received first 76543210 hgfed cb a ctrl parallel data

altera corporation 2?41 may 2008 arria gx device handbook, volume 1 arria gx architecture one alm contains two programmable registers. each register has data, clock, clock enable, synchronous and asynchronous clear, asynchronous load data, and synchronous and as ynchronous load/preset inputs. global signals, general-purpose i/o pi ns, or any internal logic can drive the register's clock and clear control signals. either general-purpose i/o pins or internal logic can drive th e clock enable, preset, asynchronous load, and asynchronous load data. the asynchronous load data input comes from the datae or dataf input of the alm, which are the same inputs that can be used for register packing. for combinational functions, the register is bypassed and the output of the lut drives directly to the outputs of the alm. each alm has two sets of outputs that drive the local, row, and column routing resources. the lut, adder, or register output can drive these output drivers independently (see figure 2?29 ). for each set of output drivers, two alm outputs can drive co lumn, row, or direct link routing connections. one of these alm output s can also drive local interconnect resources. this allows the lut or adder to drive one output while the register drives another output. this feature, called register packing, improves device utilization because the device can use the register and combinational logic for unrelated functions. another special packing mode allows the register output to feed back into the lut of the same alm so that the register is packed wi th its own fan-out lut. this feature provides another mechanism for improved fitting. the alm can also drive out registered and unregistered versions of the lut or adder output. alm operating modes the arria gx alm can operate in one of the following modes: normal mode extended lut mode arithmetic mode shared arithmetic mode each mode uses alm resources differently. each mode has 11 available inputs to the alm (see figure 2?28 ) ? the eight data inputs from the lab local interconnect; carry-in from the previous alm or lab; the shared arithmetic chain connection from th e previous alm or lab; and the register chain connection ? are directed to different destinations to implement the desired logic function. lab-wide signals provide clock, asynchronous clear, asynchronous preset/load, synchronous clear, synchronous load, and clock enable control for the register. these

(2) the clock control block feed s to a multiplexer within the pll_out pin?s ioe. the pll_out pin is a dual-purpose pin. therefore, this multiplexer selects either an inte rnal signal or the output of the clock control block. for the global clock contro l block, clock source selection can be controlled either statically or dynamically. you has the option of statically selecting the clock source by us ing the quartus ii soft ware to set specific configuration bits in the configuration file ( sof or pof ) or you can control the selection dynamically by using in ternal logic to drive the multiplexer select inputs. when selecting statically, the clock source can be set to any of the inputs to the select multiplex er. when selecting the clock source dynamically, you can either select between two pll outputs (such as the c0 or c1 outputs from one pll), between two plls (such as the c0 / c1 clock output of one pll or the c0 / c1 c1ock output of the other pll), between two clock pins (such as clk0 or clk1 ), or between a combination of clock pins or pll outputs. for the regional and pll_out clock control block, clock source selection can only be controlled statically using configuration bits. any of the inputs to the cloc k select multiplexer can be set as the clock source. pll counter outputs (c[5..0]) enable/ disable pll_out pin internal logic static clock select ioe (1 ) static clock select (1) 6 internal logic (2)
altera corporation 2?87 may 2008 arria gx device handbook, volume 1 arria gx architecture arria gx clock networks can be disabled (powered down) by both static and dynamic approaches. when a clock net is powered down, all the logic fed by the clock net is in an off-state thereby reducing the overall power consumption of the device. global an d regional clock networks can be powered down statically through a sett ing in the configuration file (sof or pof). clock networks that are not used are automatically powered down through configuration bit sett ings in the configuration file generated by the quartus ii softwa re. the dynamic clock enable or disable feature allows the internal logic to control power up/down synchronously on gclk and rclk nets and pll_out pins. this function is independent of the pll and is appl ied directly on the clock network or pll_out pin, as shown in figures 2?58 through 2?60 . enhanced and fast plls arria gx devices provide robust clock management and synthesis using up to four enhanced plls and four fast plls. these plls increase performance and provide advanced cl ock interfacing and clock frequency synthesis. with features such as clock switchover, spread spectrum clocking, reconfigurable bandwidth, phase control, and reconfigurable phase shifting, the arria gx device?s enhanced plls provide you with complete control of your clocks and system timing. the fast plls provide general purpose clocking with multiplication and phase shifting as well as high-speed outputs for high-speed differential i/o support. enhanced and fast plls work together with the aria gx high-speed i/o and advanced clock architecture to prov ide significant improvements in system performance and bandwidth.

3?12 altera corporation arria gx device handbook, volume 1 may 2008 configuration and testing automated single event upset (seu) detection arria gx devices offer on-chip circuitry for automated checking of single event upset (seu) detection. some appl ications that require the device to operate error free at high elevations or in close proximity to earth?s north or south pole will require periodic checks to ensure continued data integrity. the error detection cyclic redundancy check (crc) feature controlled by the device and pin options dialog box in the quartus ii software uses a 32-bit crc circuit to en sure data reliability and is one of the best options for mitigating seu. you can implement the error detection crc feature with ex isting circuitry in arria gx devices, eliminating the need for external logic. arria gx devices compute crc during configuration. the arria gx device checks the computed-crc against an autom atically computed crc during normal operation. the crc_error pin reports a soft error when configuration sram data is corrupted, triggering device reconfiguration. custom-built circuitry dedicated circuitry is built into arria gx devices to automatically perform error detection. this circuitry constantly checks for errors in the configuration sram cells while the device is in user mode. you can monitor one external pin for the error and use it to trigger a reconfiguration cycle. you can select the desired time between checks by adjusting a built-in clock divider. software interface beginning with version 7.1 of the quartus ii software, you can turn on the automated error detection crc feature in the device and pin options dialog box. this dialog box allows you to enable the feature and set the internal frequency of the crc between 400 khz to 50 mhz. this controls the rate that the crc circuitry verifi es the internal configuration sram bits in the arria gx fpga. f for more information about crc, refer to an 357: error detection using crc in altera fpgas . referenced documents this chapter references the following documents: an 357: error detection using crc in altera fpgas an414: jrunner software driver: an embedded solution for pld jtag configuration an418: srunner: an embe dded solution for serial configuration device programming an423: configuring the microblaster passive serial software driver

4?34 altera corporation arria gx device handbook, volume 1 may 2008 power consumption power consumption altera offers two ways to calculate power for a design: the excel-based powerplay early power estimator powe r calculator and the quartus ii powerplay power analyzer feature. the interactive excel-based powerplay early power estimator is typically used prior to designing the fpga in order to get an estimate of device power. the quartus ii powerplay power analyzer provides better quality estimates based on the specifics of the design after place-and-route is complete. the power analyzer can apply a combination of user-entered, simulation-derived and estimated signa l activities which, combined with detailed circuit models, can yield very accurate power estimates. in both cases, these calculations should only be used as an estimation of power, not as a specification. f for more information on powerplay tools, refer to the powerplay early power estimator and po werplay power analyzer paper and the powerplay power analysis chapter in volume 3 of the quartus ii handbook . the powerplay early power estimator is available on the altera web site at www.altera. com . see table 4?14 on page 18 for typical i cc standby specifications. i/o timing model the directdrive technology and mu ltitrack interconnect ensures predictable performance, accurate simulation, and ac curate timing analysis across al l arria gx device densities and speed grades. this section describes and specifies the performance of i/os. all specifications are representative of worst-case supply voltage and junction temperature conditions. 1 the timing numbers listed in th e tables of this section are extracted from the quartus ii software, version 7.1. c outfb input capacitance on dual-purpose clock output/feedback pins in pll banks 11 and 12. 6.7 pf note to table 4?42 : (1) capacitance is sample-tested only. capacitance is me asured using time-domain reflections (tdr). measurement accuracy is within 0.5 pf. table 4?42. arria gx device capacitance note (1) (part 2 of 2) symbol parameter typical unit
altera corporation 4?35 may 2008 arria gx device handbook, volume 1 dc and switching characteristics preliminary, correlated, and final timing timing models can have either preliminary, correlated, or final status. the quartus ii software issues an info rmational message during design compilation if the timing models are preliminary. table 4?43 shows the status of the arria gx device timing models. preliminary status means the timing model is subject to change. initially, timing numbers are created using simulation results, process data, and other known parameters. these tests are used to make the preliminary numbers as close to the actual timing parameters as possible. correlated numbers are based on actual device operation and testing. these numbers reflect the actual performance of the device under worst-case voltage and junction temperature conditions. final timing numbers are based on complete correlation to actual devices and addressing any minor deviations from the correlated timing model. when the timing mode ls are final, all or most of the arria gx family devices have been completely characterized and no further changes to the timi ng model are expected. i/o timing measurement methodology different i/o standards require different baseline loading techniques for reporting timing delays. altera char acterizes timing delays with the required termination for each i/o st andard and with 0 pf (except for pci and pci-x which use 10 pf) loading and the timing is specified up to the output pin of the fpga device. the quartus ii software calculates the i/o timing for each i/o standard wi th a default baseline loading as specified by the i/o standards. the following measurements are made during device characterization. altera measures clock-to-output delays (t co ) at worst-case process, minimum voltage, and maximum temperature (pvt) for default loading conditions shown in table 4?44 . table 4?43. arria gx device timing model status device preliminary correlated final ep1agx20 v ep1agx35 v ep1agx50 v ep1agx60 v ep1agx90 v

4?124 altera corporation arria gx device handbook, volume 1 may 2008 duty cycle distortion duty cycle distortion duty cycle distortion (dcd) describe s how much the falling edge of a clock is off from its idea l position. the ideal position is when both the clock high time (clkh) and the clock low time (clkl) equal half of the clock period (t), as shown in figure 4?10 . dcd is the deviation of the non-ideal falling edge from the ideal falling edge, such as d1 for the falling edge a and d2 for the falling edge b (see figure 4?10 ). the maximum dcd for a clock is the larger value of d1 and d2. figure 4?10. duty cycle distortion dcd expressed in absolution deriva tion, for example, d1 or d2 in figure 4?10 , is clock-period independent. dcd can also be expressed as a percentage, and the percentage number is clock-period dependent. dcd as a percentage is defined as: (t/2 ? d1) / t (the low percentage boundary) (t/2 + d2) / t (the high percentage boundary) dcd measurement techniques dcd is measured at an fpga output pin driven by registers inside the corresponding i/o element (ioe) block. when the ou tput is a single data rate signal (non-ddio), on ly one edge of the regist er input clock (positive or negative) triggers output transitions ( figure 4?11 ). therefore, any dcd present on the input clock signal or caused by the clock input buffer or different input i/o standard does not transfer to the output signal. clkh = t/2 clkl = t/2 d1 d2 falling edge a ideal falling edge clock period (t) falling edge b
