    Hello Spike,


    Thank you for reaching out Intel FPGA Community.


    From what I understand, the mode here means the channel used, so the datasheet differentiates the information according on the channel used in the design.

    Hi,

    "mode" refers to the number of bits used by the serdes.

    Hi,

    Yes, after checking, I feel it more appropriate to say it refers to number of bits used by SERDES.

    Thank you for this.
