14 years ago --- Quote Start --- yes,i have tried different data rate,1.6Gbps,2Gbps,4Gbps,5Gbps,8Gbps...sometimes it's all work well,but the result is not correct for most of times. --- Quote End --- How do you determine that the data is not correct? You said you were only configuring the transceiver as a transmitter. I assume that means the receiver is being used to determine that things are bad. How do you know it is not the receiver that is bad? Can you loop the transmitter back to a receiver channel? Actually, there is an internal loopback too, have you tested that? Do you AC-couple to your receiver, or DC-couple? Perhaps you are stressing the transmitter drivers. --- Quote Start --- for the reference clock,i'm sure it's good. i use Oscilloscope to test the clock,and it's displays well. --- Quote End --- Ok. --- Quote Start --- the board is not custom board,it's made by ourselves,and we don't have any Altera reference board to compare .May be it's the problem of the board,but the pin Pins are connected correctly,and power supplies well. --- Quote End --- Do you have more than one of these boards? Do they all behave the same? --- Quote Start --- i will try the way of SignalTap II to test if all the control signal is right. --- Quote End --- Its a very useful tool. --- Quote Start --- i hope there is something wrong in my logic, but not the board. --- Quote End --- Good luck!
