User Guide
Transaction Layer Packet Checker—This block checks the integrity of the received
TLP and generates a request for transmission of an ACK/NAK DLLP.
TX Arbitration—This block arbitrates transactions, prioritizing in the following
order:
a. Initialize FC Data Link Layer packet
b. ACK/NAK DLLP (high priority)
c. Update FC DLLP (high priority)
d. PM DLLP
e. Retry buffer TLP
f. TLP
g. Update FC DLLP (low priority)
h. ACK/NAK FC DLLP (low priority)
Physical Layer
The Physical Layer is the lowest level of the Cyclone V Hard IP for PCI Express. It is
the layer closest to the link. It encodes and transmits packets across a link and accepts
and decodes received packets. The Physical Layer connects to the link through a
high-speed SERDES interface running at 2.5 Gbps for Gen1 implementations and at
2.5 or 5.0 Gbps for Gen2 implementations.
The Physical Layer is responsible for the following actions:
Initializing the link
Scrambling/descrambling and 8B/10B encoding/decoding of 2.5 Gbps (Gen1) or
5.0 Gbps (Gen2)
Serializing and deserializing data
Operating the PIPE 2.0 Interface
Implementing auto speed negotiation
Transmitting and decoding the training sequence
Providing hardware autonomous speed control
Implementing auto lane reversal
