Programmable logic device with transceiver and reconfigurable PLL

摘要

A programmable logic device (PLD) includes a transceiver, configurable phase-locked loop (PLL) circuits, and programmable logic circuits. The logic circuits and PLL circuits are programmed to enable the transceiver to flexibly respond to various types of input serial data signals, and to flexibly generate various types of output serial data signals, such as Serial Digital Interface (SDI) signals and High Definition SDI (HD-SDI) signals. This allows the PLD to be used in a wide variety of systems without requiring custom external components.
