Table 3-15: Avalon-MM PHY Management Interface
Signal Name
Direction
Description
phy_mgmt_clk
Input
The clock signal that controls the Avalon-MM
PHY management, interface. For Stratix IV
devices, the frequency range is 37.5-50 MHz.
There is no frequency restriction for Stratix V
devices; however, if you plan to use the same clock
for the PHY management interface and
transceiver reconfiguration, you must restrict the
frequency range of
phy_mgmt_clk
to 100-150
MHz to meet the specification for the transceiver
reconfiguration clock.
phy_mgmt_clk_reset
Input
Global reset signal that resets the entire 10GBASE-
R PHY. This signal is active high and level
sensitive. This signal is not synchronized
internally.
phy_mgmt_addr[8:0]
Input
9-bit Avalon-MM address.
phy_mgmt_writedata[31:0]
Input
Input data.
phy_mgmt_readdata[31:0]
Output
Output data.
phy_mgmt_write
Input
Write signal. Asserted high.
phy_mgmt_read
Input
Read signal. Asserted high.
phy_mgmt_waitrequest
Output
When asserted, indicates that the Avalon-MM
slave interface is unable to respond to a read or
write request. When asserted, control signals to
the Avalon-MM slave interface must remain
constant.
Refer to the “Typical Slave Read and Write Transfers” and “Master Transfers” sections in the “Avalon
Memory-Mapped Interfaces” chapter of the Avalon Interface Specifications for timing diagrams.
The following table specifies the registers that you can access over the Avalon-MM PHY management
interface using word addresses and a 32-bit embedded processor. A single address space provides access
to all registers.
Note: Writing to reserved or undefined register addresses may have undefined side effects.
