Transmitter

Let's break this down. The first part is the transmitterr.

   Addr TX Width Pam Inv Gray Pcode Swzl  CF Rate Div  Gbps     Data Out Pre3     Pre2     Pre1    Atten     Post Vert Amp Slew T2
-------- -- ----- --- --- ---- ----- ---- --- ---- --- ----- -------- --- ---- -------- -------- -------- -------- ---- --- ---- --
    :1a  1    40   2  ON  OFF   OFF  OFF  40  2.0  66 10.29     CORE   1    0        0        0        0        0

Explaination of interesting fields:

  • Pam either 2 for NRZ or 4 for PAM4
  • Gbps is set to the lane speed in use
  • Pre3/Pre2/Pre1/Atten is the current settings for fine tuning the outgoing analog signal

Receiver

The second part is the receiver:

   Addr RX Width Pam Inv Gray Pcode Swzl  CF Rate Div  Gbps      Data     Qual     Cmp_Mode  EI OK LK LB o_core  Term Phase E     Errors        BER
-------- -- ----- --- --- ---- ----- ---- --- ---- --- ----- --------- -------- ------------ --- -- -- -- ------ ----- ----- - ---------- ----------
    :1a  1    40   2 OFF  OFF   OFF  OFF  42  2.0  66 11.19       OFF   unqual          XOR Dis 11  1  0 0x0030 FLOAT     0 1          -          -

Explaination of interesting fields:

  • Pam either 2 for NRZ or 4 for PAM4
  • Gbps is set to the lane speed in use
  • Cmp_Mode seems to be related to if the lane is currently in testing mode (PRBS) or used for data
  • LK seems to be Frequency Lock, i.e. that the signal is detected and has the a compatible clock

Clock generation

This is followed by the clock generation section:

TX PLL gains: bbGAIN=25, intGAIN= 7
RX PLL gains: bbGAIN= 2, intGAIN= 7
RX: EI threshold = 6

Equalizers

Finally, we have the equalizers (CTLE, FFE, DFE) section:
