GBE_REFCLK_RMII
I
RGMII Mode
• Not used in this mode
• Connect through a 100Ω ±1%
resistor to Ground.
RMII Mode
• 50 MHz RMII Reference clock.
• Sourced from the same external
clock as GBE_REFCLK
Note:
• In RMII Mode, the GBE_REFCLK,
GBE_REFCLK_RMII, and
PHY_REFCLK are sourced by the
same external 50 MHz clock, hence,
use a no-delay clock buffer to
distribute the clocks to the three
receivers.
• Route clock signals exactly same
length from clock buffer to
receivers.
Note:
• Pull-down RMII Reference CLock (RMII) signal to GND
using 100Ω resistor when the port
is not used in either mode.
•See Section 2.3
GBE_RCOMPP I/O • Connect through a 50Ω ±1% resistor to Ground.
GBE_RCOMPN I/O
• Pull up to EP80579 GbE 2.5V Standby (VCCSUS25) supply through a 50Ω
±1% resistor
MDC O
• Connect to the MDC signal of the PHY device.
• Provide termination if signal is connected to multiple receivers.
• Resides in GbE Standby Power Well
Note:
• Can be left as NC when none of GBE ports is connected to an interfacing
device
MDIO I/O
• Connect to the MDIO signal of the PHY device.
• Pull-up signal to EP80579 GbE 2.5V Standby (VCCSUS25) using a 1.5 KΩ
± 5%
resistor
Note:
• Must be pulled high through a 10 KΩ resistor to EP80579 GbE 2.5V
Standby (VCCSUS25) when none of GBE ports is connected to an
interfacing device
EEDO I
• Connect to EEPROM Serial Data Output signal (DO)
• Pull-up to corresponding GbE Standby power supply through a 4.7KΩ ±5%
resistor.
Note:
• Must be pulled high through a 10 KΩ resistor to EP80579 GbE 2.5V
Standby (VCCSUS25) when none of GBE ports is connected to an
interfacing device
EEDI O
• Connect to EEPROM Serial Data Input signal (DI)
•
Requires a 20KΩ pull-up to GbE Standby power if GbE Standby power is generated
on the platform; otherwise pull-down with 4.7
KΩ
EECS O
• Connect to EEPROM Chip Select input (CS)
• Connect through a 4.7KΩ ±5% resistor to Ground.
Note:
• Can be left as NC when none of GBE ports is connected to an interfacing
device
