Description

TXC_0

TXC_1

TXC_2

TXC_3

GTX_CLK

IXF1104

MAC

Transmit Reference Clock:

125 MHz for Gigabit operation.

MII operation for 10/100 Mbps operation is not
supported.

TXD[7:0]_0

TXD[7:0]_1

TXD[7:0]_2

TXD[7:0]_3

TXD[7:0]

IXF1104

MAC

Transmit Data Bus:

Width of this synchronous output bus varies with the
speed/mode of operation. In 1000 Mbps mode, all 8
bits are used.

TX_EN_0

TX_EN_1

TX_EN_2

TX_EN_3

TX_EN

IXF1104

MAC

Transmit Enable:

Synchronous input that indicates Valid data is being
driven on the TXD[7:0] data bus.

TX_ER_0

TX_ER_1

TX_ER_2

TX_ER_3

TX_ER

IXF1104

MAC

Transmit Error:

Synchronous input to PHY causes the transmission of
error symbols in 1000 Mbps links.

RXC_0

RXC_1

RXC_2

RXC_3

RX_CLK

PHY

Receive Clock:

Continuous reference clock is 125 MHz +/– 100 ppm.

RXD[7:0]_0

RXD[7:0]_1

RXD[7:0]_2

RXD[7:0]_3

RXD<3:0>

PHY

Receive Data Bus:

Width of the bus varies with the speed and mode of
operation. In 1000 Mbps mode, all 8 bits are driven by
the PHY device.

Note: MII operation at 10/100 Mbps is not supported.

RX_DV_0

RX_DV_1

RX_DV_2

RX_DV_3

RX_DV

PHY

Receive Data Valid:

This signal is asserted when valid data is present on
the corresponding RXD bus.

RX_ER_0

RX_ER_1

RX_ER_2

RX_ER_3

RX_ER

PHY

Receive Error:

In 1000 Mbps mode, asserted when error symbols or
carrier extension symbols are received.

Always synchronous to RX_CLK.

CRS_0

CRS_1

CRS_2

CRS_3

CRS

PHY

Carrier Sense:

Asserted when valid activity is detected at the line-
side interface.

COL_0

COL_1

COL_2

COL_3

COL

PHY

Collision:

Asserted when a collision is detected and remains
asserted for the duration of the collision event. In full-
duplex mode, the PHY should force this signal Low.
