The Interlaken 600G IP core handles all protocol-related functions to communicate to the other Interlaken interface devices. All handshaking, synchronizing, and error checking are handled by the Interlaken 600G IP core. You can provide packet data through the Local Bus (LBUS) TX interface and receive it from the LBUS RX interface. The LBUS is designed to match packet bus protocols made common by the SPI4.2 protocol. See User Side Interface in Chapter 4.
The following figure shows the block diagram for the Interlaken 600G IP core. The right side is the user interface and the left side is the external device interface.
