 [rw] Detected Double Error Counter

Detailed Description

Specification of the ECC Error Counters Register.

The ECC Error Counter register counts the number of correctable single bit errors detected by the receive PLS as well as the number of detectable double bit errors. This value can be used to determine the integrity of the SerDes Rx signal. Writing to this register clears the current counts to zero.


Field Documentation

[rw] Detected Double Error Counter

Field size: 8 bits

Counter is incremented when a detectable two bit error is detected by the Rx PLS layer. This indicates that the receive channel signal is marginal. Writing any value to this register will clear this counter.

[rw] Corrected Single Error Counter

Field size: 16 bits

Counter is incremented when a correctable error is detected by the Rx PLS layer. Writing any value to this register will clear this counter.
