PRODUCTION DATA
In 12-bit HF mode, the LOCK pin is only high if there is a link with a serializer that has an active PCLK input. LOCK is low if there is a serializer connected and there is a link established using the internal oscillator of the serializer. Therefore, when using this mode, it is preferred to use the port specific LOCK_STS register (0x4D[0]), which is high when linked to a serializer with internal oscillator. This LOCK_STS signal can also be output to a GPIO pin for monitoring in real time. Once LOCK_STS is high for a specific port, remote I2C is available to that serializer.
In 12-bit LF or 10-bit modes, the LOCK pin is high when there is a link with a serializer regardless of whether there is an active PCLK input. The port specific LOCK_STS register is also valid in either of these modes.
