SGMII Status Signals

The SGMII status signals provide status information to the PCS block. When the PCS is instantiated
standalone, these signals are inputs to the MAC and serve as interface control signals for that block.

Description

I/O

Name

Gigabit mode enabled. In 1000BASE-X, this signal is always set to 1.
In SGMII, this signal is set to 1 if one of the following conditions is
met:

the

USE_SGMII_AN

bit is set to 1 and a gigabit link is established with

the link partner, as decoded from the

partner_ability

register

the

USE_SGMII_AN

bit is set to 0 and the

SGMII_SPEED

bit is set to 10

O

set_1000

100 -Mbps mode enabled. In 1000BASE-X, this signal is always set to
0. In SGMII, this signal is set to 1 if one of the following conditions is
met:

the

USE_SGMII_AN

bit is set to 1 and a 100Mbps link is established

with the link partner, as decoded from the

partner_ability

register

the

USE_SGMII_AN

bit is set to 0 and the

SGMII_SPEED

bit is set to 01

O

set_100

10 -Mbps mode enabled. In 1000BASE-X, this signal is always set to
0. In SGMII, this signal is set to 1 if one of the following conditions is
met:

the

USE_SGMII_AN

bit is set to 1 and a 10Mbps link is established with

the link partner, as decoded from the

partner_ability

register

the

USE_SGMII_AN

bit is set to 0 and the

SGMII_SPEED

bit is set to 00

O

set_10

Half-duplex mode enabled. In 1000BASE-X, this signal is always set
to 0. In SGMII, this signal is set to 1 if one of the following conditions
is met:

the

USE_SGMII_AN

bit is set to 1 and a half-duplex link is established

with the link partner, as decoded from the

partner_ability

register

the

USE_SGMII_AN

bit is set to 0 and the
