Introduction
The DPA data-realignment circuitry allows further realignment beyond
what the J multiplication factor allows. You can set the J multiplication
factor to be 8 or 10. However, because data must be continuously clocked
in on each low-speed clock cycle, the upcoming bit to be realigned and
previous n −1 bits of data are selected each time the data realignment
logic’s counter passes n −1. At this point the data is selected entirely from
bit-slip register 3 (see Figure 3–11) as the counter is reset to 0. The logic
array receives a new valid byte of data on the next divided low speed
clock cycle. Figure 3–11 shows the data realignment logic output
selection from data in the data realignment register 2 and data
realignment register 3 based on its current counter value upon
continuous request of data slipping from the logic array.

Real data will resume
on the next byte.
Use the rx_channel_data_align signal within the device to activate
the data realigner. You can use internal logic or an external pin to control
the rx_channel_data_align signal. To ensure the rising edge of the
rx_channel_data_align signal is latched into the control logic, the
rx_channel_data_align signal should stay high for at least two low-
frequency clock cycles.
