JESD204C IP with shared PHY

For JESD204C IP, I would like to use TX 8 lanes and RX 4 lanes. Can I instantiate two IPs, one with TX-only (Both Base and PHY) and the other one is RX-only (also Both Base and PHY) and then both IPs...

Hi,


Thanks for the update. Sorry for the confusion. As I further look into the E-Tile user guide, I understand that when E-Tile transceiver is put to simplex mode, the unused pair (TX or RX) will be powered down. Thus, E-Tile does not support simplex merging. In other words, you would not be able to perform simplex merging with JESD204C IP which is currently supported in E-Tile only.


Sorry for the inconvenience.
