Can I use the both pll in the same gtp quad in Artix7

[simon123456]

When I use the both pll to drive different gtp_channel in the same gtp quad, vivado can not route the two output of the IBUFDS_GTE2. How to solve these problem ? Thanks.

Hi @simon123456 ,

By pll, are you referring Qpll or Cpll?

The QPLL can be shared by the serial transceiver channels within the same Quad, but cannot be shared by channels in other Quads.

The two PLLs in GTP quad can drive all the four gtp_channel, they are not cpll. I use dedicated FPGA pads to drive IBUFDS_GTE2, one set of differential clock pins drive a separate IBUFDS_GTE2. But the two output of the IBUFDS_GTE2 can not route. I found that the output of IBUFDS_GTE2 drive two net, one drives the GTREFCLK0/1 pin, and the other feed into the GTP_COMMON_X130Y179/GTP_COMMON_INTER. And the vivado tool reports the first one route failed. Why the tool not directly drives the GTREFCLK0/1 pin through the GTP_COMMON_X130Y179/GTP_COMMON_INTER, that is the result when i use one gtp_channel. Thanks.
