GBE_REFCLK_RMII
I
RGMII Mode
โข Not used in this mode
โข Connect through a 100ฮฉ ยฑ1%
resistor to Ground.
RMII Mode
โข 50 MHz RMII Reference clock.
โข Sourced from the same external
clock as GBE_REFCLK
Note:
โข 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.
โข Route clock signals exactly same
length from clock buffer to
receivers.
Note:
โข Pull-down RMII Reference CLock (RMII) signal to GND
using 100ฮฉ resistor when the port
is not used in either mode.
โขSee Section 2.3
GBE_RCOMPP I/O โข Connect through a 50ฮฉ ยฑ1% resistor to Ground.
GBE_RCOMPN I/O
โข Pull up to EP80579 GbE 2.5V Standby (VCCSUS25) supply through a 50ฮฉ
ยฑ1% resistor
MDC O
โข Connect to the MDC signal of the PHY device.
โข Provide termination if signal is connected to multiple receivers.
โข Resides in GbE Standby Power Well
Note:
โข Can be left as NC when none of GBE ports is connected to an interfacing
device
MDIO I/O
โข Connect to the MDIO signal of the PHY device.
โข Pull-up signal to EP80579 GbE 2.5V Standby (VCCSUS25) using a 1.5 Kฮฉ
ยฑ 5%
resistor
Note:
โข Must be pulled high through a 10 Kฮฉ resistor to EP80579 GbE 2.5V
Standby (VCCSUS25) when none of GBE ports is connected to an
interfacing device
EEDO I
โข Connect to EEPROM Serial Data Output signal (DO)
โข Pull-up to corresponding GbE Standby power supply through a 4.7Kฮฉ ยฑ5%
resistor.
Note:
โข Must be pulled high through a 10 Kฮฉ resistor to EP80579 GbE 2.5V
Standby (VCCSUS25) when none of GBE ports is connected to an
interfacing device
EEDI O
โข Connect to EEPROM Serial Data Input signal (DI)
โข
Requires a 20Kฮฉ pull-up to GbE Standby power if GbE Standby power is generated
on the platform; otherwise pull-down with 4.7
Kฮฉ
EECS O
โข Connect to EEPROM Chip Select input (CS)
โข Connect through a 4.7Kฮฉ ยฑ5% resistor to Ground.
Note:
โข Can be left as NC when none of GBE ports is connected to an interfacing
device
