Aurora-compatible lightweight link
Maturity plannedTargets FPGA + ASICDifficulty MediumPriority 2
Lightweight point-to-point link layer compatible with the Aurora 8B/10B and 64B/66B protocols, with channel bonding, framing and native flow control.
Planned. This block is specified in the catalog with its interfaces and targets. No implementation exists yet; the skeleton command below generates a lint-clean shell with its ports and registers.
Interfaces
| Port | Direction | Kind | Width | Notes |
