Description

000036541 - Design Advisory - Versal GTM performance based on GTM transceiver state of operation

Release Date
2024-08-06
Revision
1.0 English

Affected devices and configurations:

  • Versal GTM in all I/Q/M/E temperature grades.
  • Current or future PAM4 configurations with 38 Gb/s and above. Configurations with PAM4 below 38 Gb/s or NRZ for all line rates are unaffected.

 

When the GTM transceiver is not currently used but is configured, in certain operating conditions (see Table 1) Vivado 2024.1 or later must be used to ensure that any future use of that transceiver meets the data sheet specifications.

 

Table 1: conditions where using Vivado 2024.1 or later is required:
