5.15 SERDES Macro Configuration Register n (SERDES_CFGn_CNTL)
There are four of these registers, to support four ports (see Table 63). The general form for a SERDES transmit channel configuration register is summarized by Figure 76 and Table 64. See Section 2.3.2.1 for a complete explanation of the programming of this register.

Bit | Field  | Value  | Description |

LB  | 
  | Loop bandwidth. Specify loop bandwidth settings. Jitter on the reference clock will  | |
  | 
  | 
  | degrade both the transmit eye and receiver jitter tolerance thereby impairing system  | 
  | 
  | 
  | performance. Performance of the integrated PLL can be optimized according to the  | 
  | 
  | 
  | jitter characteristics of the reference clock via the LB field.  | 
  | 
  | 00b  | Frequency dependent bandwidth. The PLL bandwidth is set to a twelfth of the  | 
  | 
  | 
  | frequency of RIOCLK/RIOCLK. This setting is suitable for most systems that input the  | 
  | 
  | 
  | reference clock via a low jitter input cell, and is required for standards compliance  | 
  | 
  | 01b  | Reserved  | 
  | 
  | 10b  | Low bandwidth. The PLL bandwidth is set to a twentieth of the frequency of  | 
  | 
  | 
  | RIOCLK/RIOCLK, or 3MHz (whichever is larger). In systems where the reference  | 
  | 
  | 
  | clock is directly input via a low jitter input cell, but is of lower quality, this setting may  | 
  | 
  | 
  | offer better performance. It will reduce the amount of reference clock jitter transferred  | 
  | 
  | 
  | through the PLL. However, it also increases the susceptibility to loop noise generated  | 
  | 
  | 
  | within the PLL itself. It is difficult to predict whether the improvement in the former will  | 
  | 
  | 
  | more than offset the degradation in the latter.  | 
  | 
  | 11b  | High bandwidth. The PLL bandwidth is set to a eighth of the frequency of  | 
  | 
  | 
  | RIOCLK/RIOCLK. This is the setting appropriate for systems where the reference  | 
  | 
  | 
  | clock is cleaned through an ultra low jitter   | 
  | 
  | 
  | be achieved even if the reference clock input to the cleaner PLL is outside the  | 
  | 
  | 
  | specification for the standard.  |
