SCA_line_state
These two bits indicate the cable status measured by SCA
operation.
3: test fail (not complete)
2: line okay
1: line open
0: line short

RO
SCA_peak_val
These bits indicate the absolute value and the maximum
value of peak amplitude measured by SCA operation.

--
RO
SCA_peak_pos[7:2]These bits indicate the position of peak
amplitude measured by SCA operation.
When cable status is open or short, the failure position is
approximated as (SCA_peak_pos[7:2] * 4) meters.
Ex: SCA_peak_pos[7:2] = 6’b011001, the failure position is
25*4 = 100 meters

SCA_txsel
These two bits indicate the TX phase of SCA operation.
