11 years agoLVDS SERDES doesn't work
I'm using Arria-10 to make a LVDS SERDES. But it doesn't work. Looking forward to your help.
The code is as below. Please see the attached pdf for how SERDES IP is configured.signal FL_Clk : std_logic;
signal FL_Channel0 : std_logic_vector(6 downto 0) := (others => '0');
signal FL_Channel1 : std_logic_vector(6 downto 0) := (others => '0');
signal FL_Channel2 : std_logic_vector(6 downto 0) := (others => '0');
signal FL_Channel3 : std_logic_vector(6 downto 0) := (others => '0');
signal LVDSOut : std_logic_vector(4 downto 0) := (others => '0'); -- LVDSOut(3 downto 0) = Channel 0..3 LVDSOut(4) = Clock
i0_Serdes : SERDES port map (
tx_in => FL_Channel3 & FL_Channel2 & FL_Channel1 & FL_Channel0, -- tx_in.export
tx_out => LVDSOut(3 downto 0), -- tx_out.export
tx_outclock => LVDSOut(4), -- tx_outclock.export
inclock => Clk_125mhz, -- inclock.export
--pll_areset => Reset, -- pll_areset.export
pll_areset => Reset_flu,
pll_locked => open, -- pll_locked.export
tx_coreclock => FL_Clk -- tx_coreclock.export
);
-- Output
g_out: for i in 0 to 4 generate
i_out: diff_out
port map(
din => LVDSOut(i downto i),
pad_out => localdisplay_dp(i downto i),
pad_out_b => localdisplay_dn(i downto i)
);
end generate;

ModeSim gives me no errors or warnings.
Try yourself to simulate a very simple model using internal PLL. I used Quartus II and ModelSim. - Altera_Forum

--- Quote Start --- The transmitter model doesn't work at all. I tryed thee most simple model with internal PLL. I can see that the internal PLL is locked but nothig comes out. The receiver works fine. César --- Quote End --- I´m having some problem with the transmitter too, I'm not using the receiver. I'm getting nothing as result in my data output from the TX when I look at the signalTap, I already tried with external PLL option and without it, did u find any solutions for the transmitter? I configured the output pins using the HSMC, but got no response.
