IDLE AND RATE DETECTION TO EXTERNAL PINS
The functions of IDLE and RATE detection to external pins for monitoring can be supported in SMBus mode. The
external GPIO pins of 19, 20, 46 and 47 will be changed and they will serve as outputs for IDLE and RATE
detect signals.
The following external pins should be set to auto detection:
RATE = F (FLOAT) – auto RATE detect enabled
TXIDLEA/B = F (FLOAT) – auto IDLE detect enabled
There are 4 GPIO pins that can be configured as outputs with reg_4E[0].
To disable the external SMBus address pins, so pin 46 and 47 can be used as outputs:
WRITE 01'H TO ADDRESS 0X4E.
Care must be taken to ensure that only the desired status block is enabled and attached to the external pin as
the status blocks can be OR’ed together internally. Register bits reg_47[5:4] and bits reg_4C[7:6] are used to
enable each of the status block outputs to the external pins. The channel status blocks can be internally OR’ed
together to monitor more than one channel at a time. This allows more information to be presented on the status
outputs and later if desired, a diagnosis of the channel identity can be made with additional SMBus writes to
register bits reg_47[5:4] and bits reg_4C[7:6].
Below are examples to configure the device and bring the internal IDLE and RATE status to pins 19, 20, 46, 47.
To monitor the IDLE detect with two channels ORed (CH0 with CH2, CH1 with CH3, CH4 with CH6, CH5 with
CH7):
WRITE 32'H TO ADDRESS 0X47.
The following IDLE status should be observable on the external pins:
pin 19 – CH0 with CH2,
pin 20 – CH1 with CH3,
pin 46 – CH4 with CH6,
pin 47 – CH5 with CH7.
Pin = HIGH (VDD) means IDLE is detected (no signal present).
Pin = LOW (GND) means ACTIVE (data signal present).
To monitor the RATE detect with two channels ORed (CH0 with CH2, CH1 with CH3, CH4 with CH6, CH5 with
CH7):
WRITE C0'H TO ADDRESS 0X4C.
The following RATE status should be observable on the external pins:
pin 19 – CH0 with CH2,
pin 20 – CH1 with CH3,
pin 46 – CH4 with CH6,
pin 47 – CH5 with CH7.
Pin = HIGH (VDD) means high data rate is detected (6 Gbps).
Pin = LOW (GND) means low rate is detected (3 Gbps).
