Enable TX polarity inversion On/Off
When you turn this option On, the 
tx_std_polinv
 port controls 
polarity inversion of TX parallel data before transmitting the 
parallel data to the PMA. 
Enable RX polarity inversion On/Off
When you turn this option On, asserting 
rx_std_polinv
controls polarity inversion of RX parallel data after PMA 
transmission. 
Enable rx_std_bitrev_ena port On/Off
When you turn this option On, asserting 
rx_std_bitrev_ena
control port causes the RX data order to be reversed from the 
normal order, LSB to MSB, to the opposite, MSB to LSB. This 
signal is an asynchronous input. 
Enable rx_std_byterev_ena port On/Off
When you turn this option On, asserting 
rx_std_byterev_ena
input control port causes swaps the order of the individual 8- or 
10-bit words received from the PMA.
Enable tx_std_polinv port On/Off
When you turn this option On, the 
tx_std_polinv
 input is 
enabled. You can use this control port to swap the positive and 
negative signals of a serial differential link if they were 
erroneously swapped during board layout. 
Enable rx_std_polinv port On/Off
When you turn this option On, the 
rx_std_polinv
 input is 
enabled. You can use this control port to swap the positive and 
negative signals of a serial differential link if they were 
erroneously swapped during board layout. 
Enable tx_std_elecidle port On/Off
When you turn this option On, the 
tx_std_elecidle
 input port 
is enabled. When this signal is asserted, it forces the transmitter 
to electrical idle. This signal is required for the PCI Express 
protocol. 
Enable rx_std_signaldetect port On/Off
When you turn this option On, the optional 
tx_std_signaldetect
 output port is enabled. This signal is 
required for the PCI Express protocol. If enabled, the signal 
threshold detection circuitry senses whether the signal level 
present at the RX input buffer is above the signal detect threshold 
voltage that you specified.
