LVDS receiver in StratixII DO NOT need bit clock?

I found LVDS receiver in Stratix II DO NOT need a bit clock, just frame clock is OK. and LVDS receiver in Stratix II will regenerate the bit clock needed by using frame clock.

Is that correct?Need help.

    Hello,

    altlvds_rx Megafunction by default includes instantiation of a PLL that generates bit clock from frame clock. With source synchronous transmission, only a frame clock is available normally.
