Hi Ron,
As I understand it, you would like to use the 64B/66B encoding/decoding blocks without using the 10GBASE-R mode in Native PHY. For your information, these blocks are only available using 10GBASE-R mode. I am not aware of specific device which support 64B/66B encoding/decoding blocks without 10GBASE-R mode. As a workaround, you might want to look into coding your own soft 64B/66B blocks for your use case. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Hello CheePin,
Thanks for the confirmation. Are there any Intel FPGA IP cores which can be used for 64B/66B encoding outside the transceiver?
I would like to know whether I can use 10GBASE-R for any desired line rate or is it fixed to 10G only(Single channel without channel bonding). Note: The reason for asking this question is cause I have observed in the Intel® Arria® 10 Transceiver PHY User Guide that the architecture for 10GBASE-R shows fixed values of clocks and line rate with the line rate shown to be 10.3125 Gbps.
The required line rates for my application may come in the range of 12Gbps to 24Gbps on single channel. Will it be possible for me to implement this using 10GBASE-R without channel bonding?
Thanks and Regards,
Ron
