The Backplane Ethernet 10GBASE-KR PHY IP core includes the following new modules
to enable operation over a backplane:
• Link Training (LT)— The LT mechanism allows the 10GBASE-KR PHY to
automatically configure the link-partner TX PMDs for the lowest Bit Error Rate
(BER). LT is defined in Clause 72 of IEEE Std 802.3ap-2007.
• Auto negotiation (AN)—The 10GBASE-KR PHY IP core can auto-negotiate between
1000BASE-KX (1GbE) and 10GBASE-KR (10GbE) PHY types. The AN function is
mandatory for Backplane Ethernet. It is defined in Clause 73 of the IEEE Std
802.3ap-2007.
• Forward Error Correction (FEC)—FEC function is an optional feature defined in
Clause 74 of IEEE 802.3ap-2007. It provides an error detection and correction
mechanism.
