Table 9–7
describes the Avalon-MM programming interface signals.
tx_clkena
Input
1
The TX clock enable provided by the PHY IP to the
MAC. This clock divides gmii_tx_clk_clk down to
25 MHz for 100 Mbps mode and 2.5 MHz for
10 Mbps mode.
tx_clkena_half_rate
Input
1
The TX half-clock enable provided by the PHY IP to
the MAC. This clock divides gmii_tx_clk_clk down
to 12.5 MHz for 100 Mbps mode and 1.25 MHz for
10 Mbps mode.
