This section describes how to combine channels for various protocol functional
modes.
This section describes the combination requirements in the two variations of bonded
functional modes using transceiver PCS blocks. The two bonded functional modes
are:

Bonded ×4 Functional Mode
The combination requirements for Basic x4, Deterministic Latency ×4, and PCIe x4
functional modes (if you do not use the PCIe hard IP block) are similar.
In this mode, the transmitter channels are synchronized to reduce skew. The
Quartus II software shares the control from physical transmitter channel 0 with the
other transmitter channels in the transceiver block. Therefore, when you an create an
instance in this mode, the logical transmit channel 0 (tx_dataout[0] in the instance)
must be assigned by the physical channel location 0 in the transceiver block.
The central clock divider block in the CMU0 channel forwards the high-speed serial and
low-speed parallel clocks to the transmitter channels.
This clocking scheme is described in the “Bonded Channel Configurations” section of
the
Because you used the central clock divider, the are two restrictions on the channel
combinations:

transmitter channels (regular or CMU channels) within the transceiver block can
be used only in Basic (PMA Direct) ×1 or ×N mode.

The receiver channels are clocked independently. Therefore, you can configure the
unused receiver channels within a transceiver block in any allowed configuration.
