The static configuration interface is made up of a small number of ports that must be statically wired to indicate to the core how the transceiver that it is connected to is configured and where it is sited. The core uses this information to determine which DRP registers need to be manipulated in the transceiver and clock management primitives. These ports are described in Table: Static Configuration Interface Port Description .

(Zynq-7000 SoC, Virtex-7, Kintex-7, and Artix-7 devices only) When generating the core clock a PLLE2 can be used as a replacement for the MMCME2. See Using the PLL to Generate the Core Clock for details of the additional wrapper changes that must be applied.

(UltraScale architecture only) Specifies which QPLL to use on cores supporting 9,830.4, 10,137.6, 12,165.12, or 24,330.24 Mb/s.
0 - QPLL0 is used

These signals should not be dynamically driven but be wired to the appropriate constant values before implementation.
