—are not present in variations targeting Stratix V devices with GX

transceivers.

1.25 Gbps Serial Interface

If the variant includes an embedded PMA, the PMA provides a 1.25-GHz serial interface.

Table 7-25: 1.25 Gbps MDI Interface Signals

Description

I/O

Name

125 MHz local reference clock oscillator.

I

ref_clk

Serial Differential Receive Interface.

I

rx_p

Serial Differential Transmit Interface.

O

tx_p

Transceiver Native PHY Signal

Table 7-26: Transceiver Native PHY Signal

Description

I/O

Name

Port to connect the RX PLL reference clock with a frequency of 125
MHz when you enable SyncE support.

I

cdr_ref_clk_n

SERDES Control Signals

These signals apply only to PMA blocks implemented in devices with GX transceivers.

Table 7-27: SERDES Control Signal

Description

I/O

Name

Recovered clock from the PMA block.

O

rx_recovclkout

Power-down status. Asserted when the PCS function is in power-
down mode; deasserted when the PCS function is operating in normal
mode. This signal is implemented only when an internal SERDES is
used with the option to export the power-down signal.

This signal is not present in PMA blocks implemented in Stratix V
devices with GX transceivers.

O

pcs_pwrdn_out

Power-down enable. Assert this signal to power down the transceiver
quad block. This signal is implemented only when an internal
SERDES is used with the option to export the power-down signal.

This signal is not present in PMA blocks implemented in Stratix V
devices with GX transceivers.

I

gxb_pwrdn_in

Calibration block clock for the ALT2GXB module (SERDES). This
clock is typically tied to the 125 MHz

ref_clk

. Only implemented

when an internal SERDES is used.

This signal is not present in PMA blocks implemented in Stratix V
devices with GX transceivers.
