AR# 34191 Virtex-6 FPGA GTX Transceiver Wizard - Attribute updates for production silicon

The Virtex-6 FPGA GTX Transceiver Wizard v1.4 rev1, included with ISE Design Suite 11.5, has attribute settings that have been optimized for production silicon. The output from earlier versions of the Wizard need to be replaced or updated with new attribute settings when used with production silicon. This Answer Record discusses what changes need to be made.

The Wizard included with 11.5 will update the many attributes necessary for correct operation in production silicon. The values for production silicon are as follows, with the design specific selections on the left and the dependant attributes on the right:



NOTES:

1. This table does not include values for TX/RXPLL_DIVSEL_FB = 1 as those values are not supported. When porting a design from ES to production, DIVSEL_REF can be used to pre-divide in input clock, allowing the use of PLL_DIVSEL_FB = 2 to accomplish the same PLL rate.

For information on which versions of the Virtex-6 Transceiver Wizard support ES and Production silicon, please refer to the following table:
