In Table 2-14, added the encoding to thePMA_LPBK_CTRL_LANE attribute description; changed the Reserved bits for [13:11] and [10:8] inthe PCS_MODE_LANE attribute; added reference to the Virtex-6 FPGA GTH Transceiver Wizardto attribute PMA_LPBK_CTRL_LANE, bits [15:2]. In Table 2-15, changed the name of portDO[15:0] to DRPDO[15:0]. Added note about DISABLEDRP to Using the DRP Interface, page 70and Using the Management Interface, page 72.Chapter 3: Added 32 and 64 bits to 8B/10B mode in Table 3-1. Added two rows to 8B/10B Modefor 32-bit and 64-bit fabric interface data width in Table 3-2. Revised manual adjustment modesettings for the BUFFER_CONFIG_LANE attribute in Table 3-4, and changed the meaning of bitcode 110 for bits [13:11] and [10:8] of the PCS_MODE_LANE attribute to Reserved in Table 3-4,Table 3-6, Table 3-8, and Table 3-10. Added reference to the Virtex-6 FPGA GTH Transceiver Wizardto attribute PCS_RESET_1_LANE, bits [15:2] in Table 3-6. Changed the 8B/10B reset value for thePCS_RESET_LANE attribute in Table 3-6, Table 3-8, Table 3-10, and Table 3-12. Added reference tothe Virtex-6 FPGA GTH Transceiver Wizard to attribute PCS_RESET_1_LANE, bits [15:2] inTable 3-10. Changed the PCS_RESET_LANE value in step 2 of Enabling 8B/10B Mode, page 85. InTable 3-12, and added reference to the Virtex-6 FPGA GTH Transceiver Wizard to attributePRBS_CFG_LANE, bits [15:4] and PCS_RESET_1_LANE, bits [15:2]; changed the Reserved bits for[13:11] and [10:8] in the PCS_MODE_LANE attribute. In Table 3-13, added reference to the Virtex-6FPGA GTH Transceiver Wizard to attribute PCS_MISC_CFG_0_LANE, bits [15:12] and [5:0].Added TX Configurable Driver.Chapter 4: Added RX Analog Front End, RX Equalization, and RX CDR. Added reference to theVirtex-6 FPGA GTH Transceiver Wizard to attribute PCS_MISC_CFG_0_LANE, bits [15:12] and[5:0] in Table 4-8, and to attributes PCS_MISC_CFG_0_LANE, bits [15:12] and [5:0],PCS_RESET_1_LANE bits [15:2], and PRBS_CFG_LANE bits [15:4] in Table 4-10. In the FunctionalDescription section of RX Pattern Checker, added paragraph about when the checker is forced intoPRBS31 mode, and added two sentences at the end of the section. Added Table 4-9. Changed the8B/10B reset value for the PCS_RESET_LANE attribute in Table 4-10, Table 4-13, Table 4-16, andTable 4-18. Deleted PRBS checker reference in Description of RXCODEERR in Table 4-12,Table 4-15, Table 4-17, and Table 4-21. In Table 4-13, Table 4-16, Table 4-18, and Table 4-22, changedtransmitter to receiver in the description of RX_FABRIC_WIDTH, and changed the meaning of bitcode 110 for bits [13:11] and [10:8] of the PCS_MODE_LANE attribute to Reserved. In Table 4-13,Table 4-16, and Table 4-18, added reference to the Virtex-6 FPGA GTH Transceiver Wizard toattribute PCS_RESET_1_LANE, bits [15:2].
