7.12.2. Transceiver Reconfiguration Interfaces

You access the control and status registers of the Intel® Agilex™ F-tile transceivers during normal operation using an Avalon® memory-mapped interface. The interface responds regardless of the link status. It also responds when the IP core is in a reset state driven by any reset signal or soft reset other than the i_reconfig_reset signal.

Asserting the i_reconfig_reset signal resets all transceiver reconfiguration control and status registers, including the statistics counters; while this reset is in process, reads and writes to addresses in the F-Tile Ethernet Intel® FPGA Hard IP is delayed.

Table 53.  Transceiver Reconfiguration Interface Ports to Native PHY Reconfiguration InterfacesThe signals in this interface are clocked by the i_reconfig_clk clock and reset by the i_reconfig_reset signal. The signal names are standard Avalon® memory-mapped interface signals.
  • n = index of transceiver associated with the reconfiguration interface, from 0 to (number of lanes - 1)
Port Name Width Description

i_reconfig_xcvrn_addr[17:0]

18 bits

Address bus for transceiver control and status registers.

i_reconfig_xcvrn_read

1 bit

Transceiver read signal.

When asserted, starts a read cycle.

i_reconfig_xcvrn_write

1 bit

Transceiver write signal.

When asserted, writes data on the reconfiguration write data bus.

i_reconfig_xcvrn_byteenable[3:0]

4 bits

Transceiver byte enable signal for read and write request.

o_reconfig_xcvrn_readdata[31:0]

32 bits

Transceiver read data bus.

When asserted, presents transceiver data read on a read cycle.

o_reconfig_xcvrn_readdata_valid

1 bit

Read data from Transceiver read data bus is valid.

i_reconfig_xcvrn_writedata[31:0]

32 bits

Transceiver write data bus.

When asserted, presents transceiver data written on a write cycle.

o_reconfig_xcvrn_waitrequest

1 bit Indicates the Avalon® memory-mapped interface is busy. The read or write cycle is only complete when this signal goes low.
