8、erdevelopment. In other cases, they derive from studies in areas where it is foundpremature to develop a standard due to a still changing technology, orinappropriate to develop a rigorous standard due to the existence of a number ofviable options, the choice of which depends on the users particular

9、requirements.These Technical Reports, thus, provide guidelines, the use of which can result ingreater consistency and coherence of information processing systems.When the draft Technical Report is completed, the Technical Committee approvalprocess is the same as for a draft standard. Processing by N

10、CITS is also similar tothat for a draft standard.CAUTION: The developers of this Technical Report have requested that holdersof patents that may be required for the implementation of the Technical Report,disclose such patents to the publisher. However, neither the developers nor thepublisher have un

29、mbolsThe following abbreviations and acronyms are applicable to this Technical Report.FC Fibre ChannelPLL Phase Locked Loopppm parts per million4 Functional descriptionThe Transmit Interface is defined as an input to the Physical layer device with a 10-bit wide transmit data bus (Tx0:9),its associat

30、ed transmit byte clock (TBC) and a speed selector (TX_RATE). The reference clock is a differential 106,25MHz 100 ppm signal (REFCLK0:1). REFCLK0:1 frequency is independent of both the Transmit Interface andReceive Interface data rates. The Transmission protocol layer device presents data to the Phys

31、ical layer device relativeto the falling edge of TBC when the Transmit Interface is operating at 1 062,5 MBaud. The Transmission protocol layerdevice presents data to the Physical layer device synchronous with both rising and falling edges of TBC when theTransmit Interface is operating at 2 125,0 MB

32、aud. The speed of the Transmit Interface is set by the TX_RATE signal. Atransmit reference voltage (VREFT) is provided to ensure that TBC and Tx0:9 have a well-defined threshold betweenlow and high values in order to reduce jitter.The Receive Interface is defined as an output of the Physical layer d

33、evice with a 10-bit wide data bus (Rx0:9), tworeceive byte clocks (RBC0:1), an optional comma detection enable (EN_CDET), a comma detection indication(COM_DET) and a speed selector (RX_RATE). The receive byte clocks operate at 53,125 MHz when the ReceiveInterface data rate is 1 062,5 MBaud and at 10

34、6,25 MHz when the Receive Interface data rate is 2 125,0 MBaud. Thereceive byte clocks are 180 out of phase with each other. Receive data is presented to the Transmission protocol layerdevice relative to the rising edge of each of RBC0 and/or RBC1. The speed of the Receive Interface is set by theRX_

35、RATE signal. A receive reference voltage (VREFR) is provided to ensure that RBC0:1 and Rx0:9 have well-defined threshold between low and high values in order to reduce jitter.Two additional signals complete the definition of the High-Speed Parallel Interface. The first is the wrap or loopbacksignal

36、(EWRAP). This signal is defined as an input to the Physical layer device which causes serialized transmit data tobe looped back to the auxiliary inputs of the receiver deserializer. The second is receiver loss-of-signal (RX_LOS). Thissignal indicates when the amplitude of the incoming serial data is

37、 low enough to be considered invalid.4.1 Data flowThe 10-bit data presented to the Physical layer device shall be serially transmitted to the cable plant, bits Tx0-Tx9sequentially. The relationship of transmit bits and the 10-bit 8B/10B-encoded characters is described in FC-FS.The receiver in the Ph

38、ysical layer device shall receive and frame data at an arbitrary byte boundary until a commasequence is received. The receiver shall realign its current byte boundary, if necessary, to that of the received comma.This process is called “byte alignment”. During the byte alignment process the Physical

39、layer device may delete up to 4characters in order to align the receive clock and the data byte containing the comma character (byte 0). This process iscalled “byte slipping”.Copyright American National Standards Institute Provided by IHS under license with ANSINot for ResaleNo reproduction or netwo

Each signal is described in its o

41、wn subsection which isheaded with the signal name followed by the logic family in parentheses. In case of conflict between specifications inthis document and other documents describing similarly-named logic families, this document shall take precedence.The two static reference voltage signals do not

42、 have associated logic families. Electrical signal levels are described inSection 5.4.2.1 Tx0:9 (SSTL_2)Tx0:9 is the 10-bit parallel transmit data presented to the Physical layer device for serialization and transmissiononto the media. The order of transmission is Tx0 first, followed by Tx1 through

43、Tx9. If the Transmit Interface isoperating at 2 125,0 MBaud, Tx0:9 shall be 212,50 MBaud. If the Transmit Interface is operating at 1 062,5MBaud, Tx0:9 shall be 106,25 MBaud.4.2.2 TBC (SSTL_2)TBC is the transmit byte clock which operates at 106,25 MHz independent of the Transmit Interface data rate.

44、 TBC isused to read data into the Physical layer device for transmission. When the Transmit Interface is operating at 2 125,0MBaud, TBC shall be synchronous with Tx0:9 (“source-synchronous”) and data shall be read into the Physicallayer device on both edges of TBC. When the Transmit Interface is ope

45、rating at 1 062,5 MBaud, data shall be readinto the Physical layer device on the falling edge of TBC. TBC shall be frequency locked to REFCLK0:1. Thephase relationship of TBC to REFCLK0:1 must be maintained within +/- 90 degrees and is vendor-dependent.4.2.3 REFCLK0:1 (PECL)REFCLK0:1 is the differen

46、tial 106,25 MHz transmit PLL reference clock. The frequency tolerance for this clockshall be 100 ppm. REFCLK0:1 may be used by the transmitter PLL to generate the 2 125,0 or 1 062,5 MHz bitrate clocks used in serial data transmission. Receivers shall automatically lock to REFCLK0:1. REFCLK0:1 isacti

47、ve on the rising edge of REFCLK1.4.2.4 TX_RATE (SSTL_2)TX_RATE is the speed selector for the Transmit Interface. When TX_RATE is set to logical 0, the Transmit Interfaceshall operate at 1 062,5 MBaud. When TX_RATE is set to logical 1, the Transmit Interface shall operate at 2 125,0MBaud.4.2.5 VREFTV

48、REFT is the reference voltage for Tx0:9, TBC, TX_RATE, RX_RATE, EWRAP and EN_CDET. The Physicallayer device shall interpret Tx0:9, TBC, TX_RATE, RX_RATE, EWRAP and EN_CDET as logical 1 when theirvoltages are greater than VREFT. The Physical layer device shall interpret Tx0:9, TBC, TX_RATE, RX_RATE,E

49、WRAP and EN_CDET as logical 0 when their voltages are less than VREFT. VREFT may be supplied by theTransmission protocol layer device.4.2.6 Rx0:9 (SSTL_2)Rx0:9 is the 10-bit parallel receive data presented to the Transmission protocol layer device for further processing.Data byte 0 of a four-byte receive word containing the comma character shall be byte aligned to
