1.4.2 Pattern Generator and Checker
(Ask a Question)The pattern generator module implements a 32-bit counter pattern used to drive the transceiver in 8b10b mode. Packets created in the pattern generator are separated by a K28.5 character. The packet payload is a simple incremental counting pattern. The pattern checker checks the packet and generates error flags if a mismatch occurs, which can be monitored in the GUI application running in the host PC.
