Signal Name Direction Width Description
tx_digitalreset
Input 1 Connect this signal to the Transceiver PHY Reset
Controller IP core. When asserted, triggers an
asynchronous reset to the digital logic on the TX
path.
rx_analogreset
Input 1 Connect this signal to the Transceiver PHY Reset
Controller IP core. When asserted, triggers an
asynchronous reset to the receiver CDR.
rx_digitalreset
Input 1 Connect this signal to the Transceiver PHY Reset
Controller IP core. When asserted, triggers an
asynchronous reset to the digital logic on the RX
path.
2.6.5.4.2. Operating Mode and Speed Signals
Table 159. Transceiver Mode and Operating Speed Signals
Signal Name Direction Width Description
xcvr_mode
Input 2 Connect this signal to the reconfiguration block.
Use the values below to set the speed:
• 0x0 = 1G
• 0x1 = 2.5G
• 0x3 = 10G
operating_speed
Output 3 Connect this signal to the MAC. This signal
provides the current operating speed of the PHY:
• 0x0 = 10G
• 0x1 = 1G
• 0x4 = 2.5G
• 0x5 = 5G
2.6.5.4.3. GMII Signals
The 16-bit TX and RX GMII supports 1GbE and 2.5GbE at 62.5 MHz and 156.25 MHz
respectively.

Signal Name Direction Width Description
TX GMII signals—synchronous to tx_clkout
gmii16b_tx_d
Input 16 TX data from the MAC. The MAC sends the lower
byte first followed by the upper byte.
gmii16b_tx_en
Input 2 When asserted, indicates the start of a new frame
from the MAC. Bit[0] corresponds to
gmii16b_tx_d[7:0]; bit[1] corresponds to
gmii16b_tx_d[15:8].
This signal remains asserted until the PHY receives
the last byte of the data frame.
gmii16b_tx_err
Input 2 When asserted, indicates an error. Bit[0]
corresponds to gmii16b_tx_err[7:0]; bit[1]
corresponds to gmii16b_tx_err[15:8].
The bits can be asserted at any time during a
frame transfer to indicate an error in the current
frame.
