Overview

Industry Leading, Silicon Proven, 16 Gbps per lane IP core, backed by a complete portfolio of verification tools, PHY interop, and hardware demos

The JESD204B controller IP is a highly optimized and silicon agnostic implementation of the JEDEC JESD204B.01 serial interface standard targeting both ASICs and FPGAs. The solution by default provides line-speeds of up to 12.5 Gbps per lane while guaranteeing data alignment and synchronization. The standard allows it to optionally by used up to 16 Gbps, but does not recommend running it faster due to the 8b 10b encoding.

The core enables quick and reliable deployment of both the transmitter (TX) and the receiver (RX) and comes optionally with a tightly integrated transport layer option, that can dynamically be configured to handle any Multiple-Converter Device Alignment, Multiple Lanes (MCDA-ML) requirements.

The IP comes with the widest parameter set available and has gone through extensive testing. The IP core is silicon proven, heavily tested in UVM regression environment and has been interoperability tested with key Data Converter ADC/DAC providers and leading SerDes PHY solutions.

JESD204B delivers all the features of the standard. The solution includes separate RX, TX modules containing the link layer and transport layer.

Gearboxes are included to enable easy interfacing to any SERDES width. Chip Interfaces JESD204 IP design can include Link Layers from B, C and D versions of the standard making the final solution more flexible and compatible with more devices. 

The IP is interoperability tested with leading PHY and data convertor vendors, Silicon proven across all major fabrication nodes and plants, and regression tested to 100% coverage.

JESD204 Frame Mapping explained from converter samples to lanes

The JESD204 Transport Layer oversees converter data mapping onto a set of JESD204 Lanes. The nature of these lanes is dependent on the version of the JESD204 standard and a function of the PCS and over the years despite the Serdes technology changing with ever increasing line rates, the function and features of the Transport Layer remained the same

Multiple ways JESD204 performs bitstream alignment

Bitstream alignment is a function of the Receiver (RX), as seen in the figure below it is the first functional block of the receiver right after the clock domain crossing (CDC) and gear boxing which are quite generic Serdes adaptation layer that can be found in almost every design working with a Serdes.
