Table 30: Gigabit Ethernet Signal Description
2.20.3 External Connectivity
The Ethernet signal lines can be connected directly to the magnetics. Please refer to the Enclustra Module
Pin Connection Guidelines [10] for details regarding the connection of Ethernet signals.
2.20.4 MDIO Address
The MDIO address assigned to the Gigabit Ethernet PHY is 3.
The MDIO interface is connected by default to MIO pins 52-53. These pins can also be used to access the
I2C bus - for details, please refer to Section 2.9.8.
2.20.5 PHY Configuration
The configuration of the Ethernet PHY is bootstrapped when the PHY is released from reset. Make sure all
I/Os on the RGMII interface are initialized and all pull-up or pull-down resistors are disabled at that moment.
The bootstrap options of the Ethernet PHY are set as indicated in Table 31.
Please note that the RGMII delays in the Ethernet PHY need to be configured before the Ethernet interface
can be used. This is done in the source files within the First Stage Boot Loader (FSBL) application provided
in the Mercury ZX1 SoC module reference design [2].

MIO52 and MIO53 can be used for either MDIO or I2C. Please refer to Section 2.9.8 for details.
