The Next Chapter
The next chapter describes the Logical Physical Layer core logic. It describes how an outbound packet is processed before clocking the packet out differentially.

Sub-block functions of the Physical Layer such as Byte Striping and Un-Striping logic, Scrambler and De-Scrambler, 8b/10b Encoder and Decoder, Elastic Buffers are discussed, and more.
