Table 1. TX Core: System Signals
Port Name	Interface	I/O	Description
tx_core_clk	System s_axis_tx s_axis_tx_cmd	I	Core logic clock input. Frequency: Serial line rate / 66 (for 64B66B linecoding) Serial line rate / 40 (for 8B10B linecoding)
tx_core_reset	System	I	Core asynchronous logic reset active-High.
tx_aresetn	s_axis_tx s_axis_tx_cmd	O	AXI4-Stream interface reset. Active-Low. Associated with both data and command interfaces.
s_axi_aclk	s_axi	I	AXI4-Lite clock input.
s_axi_aresetn	s_axi	I	AXI4-Lite reset input. Active-Low.
s_axi*	s_axi	I	See Appendix A of the Vivado Design Suite: AXI Reference Guide (UG1037) for a description of AXI4 signals.
irq	System	O	System interrupt output.
tx_sysref	System	I	SYSREF input. When Subclass 1 mode is selected, this signal is required and used by the core to set the phase of the local extended multi-block clock. This SYSREF signal must be generated synchronous to the core clock. This input should be driven from an external device generating SYSREF for both TX and RX on a link.
tx_sync	System	I	Sync signal. The sync signal is defined as an active-Low sync request signal by JESD204 so this signal is Low until comma alignment is completed and High to request ILA and normal data. This signal is only available when the core is generated with 8B10B linecoding selected.
Versal Adaptive SoCs
gt_powergood¹	System	I	This active-High signal from Versal Adaptive SoC Transceiver indicates when the GT clocking resources have completed power up.
gt_loopback[2:0]¹	System	O	This signal to the Versal Adaptive SoC Transceiver controls the various loopback modes. This must be connected to the chN_loopback[2:0] port in the CHn_DEBUG interface of the GT Quad/GT Wizard subsystem.
txusrclk¹	System	I	Versal Adaptive SoC GTM 66-bit clock used for 64b66b encoder gearbox (GTM only).
reset_all²	System	O	Reset output to the `gtwiz_versal` subsystem reset controller. Resets TX PLL and datapath.
reset_tx_pll_and_datapath²	System	O	Reset output to the `gtwiz_versal` subsystem reset controller. Resets TX PLL and datapath.
reset_tx_datapath²	System	O	Reset output to the `gtwiz_versal` subsystem reset controller. Resets TX datapath only.
reset_tx_done²	System	I	Reset Done input from the `gtwiz_versal` subsystem reset controller. Active-High when TX reset sequence is complete.
AMD UltraScale+™ /AMD UltraScale™ Devices
tx_reset_gt	System	O	JESD204_PHY TX datapath reset. Core output to reset the transmit datapath in a connected JESD204_PHY. This must be connected to a JESD204_PHY.
tx_reset_done	System	I	JESD204_PHY TX reset done input. Indicates the JESD204_PHY has completed the transmit reset process.

JESD204C only uses the above subset of the available signals on the Versal Adaptive SoC Transceiver TX_GT_IP_Interface. For further details, see Versal Adaptive SoC Transceivers Wizard LogiCORE IP Product Guide (PG331). The ports mentioned here are connected between the JESD204 and the Versal Adaptive SoC Transceiver using Block Automation when legacy GT Wizard is selected in JESD204C GUI. For more information, see Design Flow Steps. When you select the GT Wizard subsystem in JESD204C GUI, Block Automation is not available. The TX_GT_IP_Interface must be manually connected to the GT Wizard subsystem. In Versal Adaptive SoC GTM designs this port is [255:0]. These ports are present only when you select the GT Wizard subsystem in JESD204C GUI.

Table 5. TX Core: Transmit Interface (8B10B Linecoding Only)
Signal Name	Interface	I/O	Description
tx_tdata [(32*N)-1:0]	s_axis_tx	I	Transmit data input. N = Lanes
tx_tready	s_axis_tx	O	AXI4-Stream tready
tx_sof [3:0]	s_axis_tx	O	Start of frame boundary indication. The signal is four bits to indicate the byte position of the first byte of a frame in tdata in the following clock cycle. When tx_sof = 0001, the first byte of a frame is in bits [7:0] of the tdata word with the next three bytes in bits[31:8]. When tx_sof = 0010, the first byte is in bits [15:8] of the tdata word with the next two bytes in bits[31:16]; bits [7:0] contain the end of the previous frame. When tx_sof = 0100, the first byte is in bits [23:16] of the tdata word with the next byte in bits[31:24]; bits [15:0] contain the end of the previous frame. When tx_sof = 1000, tdata contains the last three bytes of the previous frame in bits [23:0] and the first byte of a new frame in bits [31:24]. Note: Multiple bits of tx_sof can be asserted in the same cycle, depending on the number of octets per frame. For example, for a frame size of two octets and tx_sof = 0101, the first and third bytes (bits[7:0] and bits[23:16]) of the tdata word contain the first bytes of frames.
tx_somf [3:0]	s_axis_tx	O	Start of multiframe boundary indication. The position of the first byte of each multiframe is encoded in the same way as tx_sof.
