The GTH/GTY transmitter clocking is handled by the Transmitter User Clocking
Network Helper block when enabled during GT IP generation from the AMD UltraScaleā¢
FPGAs Transceiver Wizard. The txusrclk
and txusrclk2
output is driven by a BUFG_GT within the helper block and its frequency is exactly equal
to the word rate of the data that must enter the txdata
port of the GTH/GTY transmitter. The txusrclk
and txusrclk2
are generated in
the GTH/GTY transmitter by dividing the serial clock from the PLL down to the word rate.
