8.9.6.2 Training Transmitter State Machine
The Training State Machine makes state transitions on each bus transfer of 16 bits, as described in
Table115.
8.9.6.3 CSIX-L1 Transmitter State Machine
The CSIX-L1 Transmit State Machine makes state transitions on CWord boundaries. CWords can
be configured to consist of 32, 64, 96, or 128 bits, corresponding to 2, 4, 6, or 8 bus transfers, as
described in Table116.
