Clock signals
tx_clkout
Output 1 GMII TX clock, derived from
tx_serial_clk[1:0]. Provides 156.25 MHz
timing reference for 2.5GbE; 62.5 MHz for 1GbE.
rx_clkout
Output 1 GMII RX clock, derived from
tx_serial_clk[1:0]. Provides 156.25 MHz
timing reference for 2.5GbE; 62.5 MHz for 1GbE.
csr_clk
Input 1 Clock for the Avalon-MM control and status
interface. Intel recommends 125 – 156.25 MHz for
this clock.
xgmii_tx_coreclkin
Input 1 XGMII TX clock. Provides 156.25 MHz timing
reference for 10GbE and 312.5 MHz for 1G/
2.5G/5G/10G (USXGMII) mode. Synchronous to
tx_serial_clk with zero ppm.
xgmii_rx_coreclkin
Input 1 XGMII RX clock. Provides 156.25 MHz timing
reference for 10GbE and 312.5 MHz for 1G/
2.5G/5G/10G (USXGMII) mode.
latency_measure_clk
Input 1 Sampling clock for measuring the latency of the
16-bit GMII datapath. This clock operates at 80
MHz and is available only when the IEEE 1588v2
feature is enabled.
tx_serial_clk
Input 1-3 Serial clock from transceiver PLLs.
• 2.5GbE: Connect bit [0] to the transceiver PLL.
This clock operates at 1562.5 MHz.
• 1GbE: Connect bit [1] to the transceiver PLL.
This clock operates at 625 MHz.
• 10GbE: Connect bit [2] to the transceiver PLL.
This clock operates at 5156.25 MHz.
• 1G/2.5G/5G/10G (USXGMII) mode: Connect bit
[0] to 5156.25 MHz.
rx_cdr_refclk
Input 1 125-MHz RX CDR reference clock for 1GbE and
2.5GbE
rx_cdr_refclk_1
Input 1 RX CDR reference clock for 10GbE. The frequency
of this clock can be either 322.265625 MHz or
644.53125 MHz, as specified by the Reference
clock frequency for 10 GbE (MHz) parameter
setting.
rx_pma_clkout
Output 1 Recovered clock from CDR, operates at the
following frequency:
• 1GbE: 125 MHz
• 2.5GbE: 312.5 MHz
• 5GbE/10GbE: 322.265625 MHz
Reset signals
reset
Input 1 Active-high global reset. Assert this signal to
trigger an asynchronous global reset.
tx_analogreset
Input 1 Connect this signal to the Transceiver PHY Reset
Controller IP core. When asserted, triggers an
asynchronous reset to the analog block on the TX
path.
