PCS Control Interface Signals

Table 7-36: Register Interface Signals

Description

I/O

Avalon-MM Signal

Type

Name

Register access reference clock. Set the signal to a
value less than or equal to 125-MHz.

I

clk

reg_clk

Active-high reset signal for

reg_clk

clock domain.

I

reset

reset_reg_clk

Register write enable.

I

write

reg_wr

Register read enable.

I

read

reg_rd

16-bit word-aligned register address.

I

address

reg_addr[4:0]

Register write data. Bit 0 is the least significant bit.

I

writedata

reg_data_in[15:0]

Register read data. Bit 0 is the least significant bit.

O

readdata

reg_data_out[15:0]

Register interface busy. Asserted during register read
or register write. A value of 0 indicates that the read
or write is complete.

O

waitrequest

reg_busy

PCS Reset Signals

Table 7-37: Reset Signals

Description

I/O

Name

Active-high reset signal for PCS

rx_clk

clock domain. Assert this

signal to reset the logic synchronized by

rx_clk

.

I

reset_rx_clk

Active-high reset signal for PCS

tx_clk

clock domain. Assert this

signal to reset the logic synchronized by

tx_clk

.

I

reset_tx_clk

MII/GMII Clocks and Clock Enablers

Data transfers on the MII/GMII interface are synchronous to the receive and transmit clocks.

Table 7-38: MAC Clock Signals

Description

I/O

Name

Receive clock. This clock is derived from the TBI clock

tbi_rx_clk

and set to 125 MHz.

O

rx_clk

Transmit clock. This clock is derived from the TBI clock

tbi_tx_clk

and set to 125 MHz.

O

tx_clk

Receive clock enabler. In SGMII mode, this signal enables

rx_clk

.

O

rx_clkena

Transmit clock enabler. In SGMII mode, this signal enables

tx_clk

.

O

tx_clkena
