Tool/software:
We have a desire to use the SERDES as a raw interface without a protocol on top. The idea would be to just run 8b/10b and limit our packet size to 10 -40 bits. Is this possible or do we need to run PCIE or USB using the PCS?

Hello Tony Spagnolia
Thank you for the query.
I am aware of the PCIe or the USB3 use cases that has been enabled.
Let me check the feasibility and update you.

Hello Tony Spagnolia
Please refer to the below sections.
12.2.3.1.3 Industry Standards Compatibility
12.2.3.2 SerDes Environment
12.2.3.2.1 SerDes I/Os
12.2.3.3 SerDes Integration
The use case you are checking may not be supported.

Hello Tony Spagnolia
Please refer below inputs i received from the expert:
Customer should implement the interface as-intended and as-tested. In this case, that’s PCIe or SuperSpeed USB. Anything else is not supported.
