    摘要: An integrated circuit like a programmable logic device (“PLD”) includes multiple channels of data communication circuitry. Circuitry is provided for selectively sharing signals (e.g., control-type signals) among these channels in groupings of various size so that the device can better support communication protocols that require various numbers of channels (e.g., one channel operating relatively independently, four channels working together, eight channels working together, etc.). The signals shared may include a clock signal, a FIFO write enable signal, a FIFO read enable signal, or the like. The circuit arrangements are preferably modular (i.e., the same or substantially the same from one channel to the next and/or from one group of channels to the next) to facilitate such things as circuit design and verification.

    摘要: A serial interface for a programmable logic device supports a wide range of data rates by providing a first number of channels supporting a first range of data rates and a second number of channels supporting a second range of data rates. The first range of data rates is preferably lower than the second range of data rates and preferably the first number of channels is higher than the second number of channels which preferably is 1. For backward compatibility with existing devices, the first number of channels in each interface preferably is four. Each channel preferably includes a physical medium attachment module and a physical coding sublayer module. Each of the higher-speed channels in the second number of channels preferably also includes a clock management unit, while the lower-speed channels in the first number of channels preferably share one or more clock management units.
