Virtex-II Pro Devices
Figure 13-2 illustrates the connections and clock management logic required to interface
the Ethernet 1000BASE-X PCS/PMA or SGMII core (when used in 1000BASE-X mode) to
the 1-Gigabit Ethernet MAC core.
Features of this configuration include:
• Direct internal connections are made between the GMII interfaces between the two
cores.
