Original question:

TLK2711 PRBS

TLK2711-SP: PRBS test clarification

Rodrigo Jerez
Prodigy 60 points
Part Number: TLK2711-SP

In the TLKS2711-SP when the test mode is activated the RKLSB pin indicates the test results (HIGH=PASS).

Does the RKLSB pin inform about the test results every RXCLK (each RXD0-RXD15 that arrive, it determines if it is correct or not) or only inform about the results when the complete sequence has been sent? 

Thank you!

Best regards

    Hi Rodrigo,

    Unfortunately, I could not locate any additional internal documentation that clarifies this point, and I do not have a TLK2711-SP available to test with.

    I think there are a couple different possible behaviors:

    1) RKLSB is synchronous to RXCLK and reports errors for each RXD0-15 after pattern synchronization occurs.

    2) RKLSB generally indicates if bit errors are being detected, but is not tightly coupled to RXCLK.

    3) RKLSB acts as a "sticky" bit after an error has been received.

    Reading over the datasheet, I believe options 1 and 2 are most likely.  Are you observing any issues in your design related to RKLSB behavior?

    Thanks,

    Drew
