Designing with Xilinx Serial Transceivers - LIVE ONLINE
Learn how to employ serial transceivers in UltraScale™ and UltraScale+™ FPGA designs or Zynq® UltraScale+ MPSoC designs.
The focus is on:
• Identifying and using the features of the serial transceiver blocks, such as 8B/10B and 64B/66B encoding, channel bonding, clock correction, and comma detection
• Utilizing the Transceivers Wizards to instantiate transceiver primitives
• Synthesizing and implementing transceiver designs
• Discussing board design as it relates to the transceivers
• Testing and debugging
The theoretical content is supplemented by exercises carried out by the participant.
Duration: 4 mornings of 4 hours each
Times: 9.00 a.m. - 11.00 a.m. Lecture part 1
11.00 a.m. - 11.15 a.m. 15 minute break
11.15 a.m. - 1.15 p.m. Lecture part 2
Exercises: self paced by the participants. Estimated time for completion appr. 2-3 hours. At the end of a lecture, the exercises to be performed by participants are discussed. The results / sample solutions are presented by the trainer the next day.
After registration: the participant receives the presentation documents in electronic form (PDF) as well as the workbook for the exercises, the login data and a list of
requirements to be done in advanced.
Course Objectives:
After completing this comprehensive training, you will have the necessary skills to:
- Describe and use the ports and attributes of the serial transceivers in Xilinx FPGAs and MPSoCs
- Effectively use the following features of the gigabit transceivers:
- 64B/66B and other encoding/decoding, comma detection, clock correction, and channel bonding
- Pre-emphasis and receive equalization
- Use the Transceivers Wizards to instantiate GT primitives in a design
- Access appropriate reference material for board design issues involving signal integrity and the power supply, reference clocking, and trace design
- Use the IBERT design to verify transceiver links on real hardware

Labs
Lab 1: Transceiver Core Generation – Use the Transceivers Wizard to create instantiation templates.
Lab 2: Transceiver Simulation – Simulate the transceiver IP by using the IP example design.
Lab 3: 64B/66B Encoding – Generate a 64B/66B transceiver core by using the Transceivers Wizard, simulate the design, and analyze the results.
Lab 4: Transceiver Implementation – Implement the transceiver IP by using the IP example design.
Lab 5: IBERT Design – Verify transceiver links on real hardware.
Lab 6: Transceiver Debugging – Debug transceiver links.
Note: Lab 4, Lab 5, and Lab 6 require a KCU105 board. These labs will run remotely. All other labs can run locally.
