As odd and crazy as it looks, this should work just as poorly as the Xilinx example in the referenced link.

Go for it and post your results here.

I do not think that you can use 1 input pair to get 25 steps, it will take many input pairs unless I am missing something. In the reference example, he is using 16 input pairs (IBUFDS_LVDSEXT_25)

Good luck,
