    Hi,

    As I understand it, you have some inquiries related to word alignment pattern for custom protocol. I believe you are using native PHY in your design. For your information, in custom configuration of Native PHY, there is no issue using K28.5 as word alignment pattern. You will need to use 10 bit encoded version of the K28.5 ie 0x17C. For reference, you may open a Native PHY, select the GIGE preset and check on the word aligner configuration.

    Please let me know if there is any concern. Thank you.

    Best regards,
