HI Petr, Short answer to your question is YES. Intel Stratix 10 FPGA has NativePHY IP to control feature usable in transceiver channel. For instance, 64b/66b encoder/decoder is one of the feature that user can freely enable or disable in NativePHY IP. NativePHY IP doesn't limit user usage over the feature. It's really up to user how you plan to enable/disable certain feature and how you want to use it. Thanks. Regards, dlim
