Transmitter Channel-to-Channel Skew
Receiver Skew Margin for Non-DPA Mode
f
Transmitter channel-to-channel skew (TCCS) is an important parameter based on the
Stratix IV transmitter in a source synchronous differential interface. This parameter is
used in receiver skew margin calculation. For more information, refer to
Skew Margin for Non-DPA Mode” on page
TCCS is the difference between the fastest and slowest data output transitions,
including the TCO variation and clock skew. For LVDS transmitters, the TimeQuest
Timing Analyzer provides a TCCS report, which shows TCCS values for serial output
ports.
You can get the TCCS value from the TCCS report (report_TCCS) in the Quartus II
compilation report under the TimeQuest Timing Analyzer, or from the
Switching Characteristics for Stratix IV Devices
Changes in system environment, such as temperature, media (cable, connector, or
PCB), and loading effect the receiver ’s setup and hold times; internal skew affects the
sampling ability of the receiver.
Different modes of LVDS receivers use different specifications that can help in
deciding the ability to sample the received serial data correctly. In DPA mode, you
must use DPA jitter tolerance instead of receiver input skew margin (RSKM).
In non-DPA mode, use TCCS, RSKM, and sampling window (SW) specifications for
high-speed source-synchronous differential signals in the receiver data path. The
relationship between RSKM, TCCS, and SW is expressed by the RSKM equation
shown in

Time unit interval (TUI)—Time period of the serial data.
RSKM—The timing margin between the receiver ’s clock input and the data input
sampling window.
SW—The period of time that the input data must be stable to ensure that data is
successfully sampled by the LVDS receiver. The SW is a device property and
varies with device speed grade.
TCCS—The timing difference between the fastest and the slowest output edges,
