5.3.1. 1G/2.5G/5G/10G Multi-rate PHY

This topic lists the byte offsets of the 1G/2.5G/5G/10G Multi-rate variant registers for Intel® Cyclone® 10 GX devices.

Register Map

You can access the 32-bit configuration registers via the Avalon® memory-mapped interface.

Table 21.  Register Map Overview
Address Range Usage Register Width Configuration
0x400 : 0x41F USXGMII 32 1G/2.5G/5G/10G (USXGMII)
0x461 Serial Loopback 32 1G/2.5G/5G/10G (USXGMII)

Register Definitions

Observe the following guidelines when accessing the registers:
  • Do not write to reserved or undefined registers.
  • When writing to the registers, perform read-modify-write operation to ensure that reserved or undefined register bits are not overwritten.

Bit [0]: USXGMII_ENA:
  • 0: 10GBASE-R mode
  • 1: USXGMII mode
RW 0
Bit [1]: USXGMII_AN_ENA is used when USXGMII_ENA is set to 1:
  • 0: Disables USXGMII Auto-Negotiation and manually configures the operating speed with the USXGMII_SPEED register.
  • 1: Enables USXGMII Auto-Negotiation, and automatically configures operating speed with link partner ability advertised during USXGMII Auto-Negotiation.

0x412 usxgmii_link_timer

Auto-Negotiation link timer. Sets the link timer value in bit [19:14] from 0 to 2 ms in approximately 0.05-ms steps. You must program the link timer to ensure that it matches the link timer value of the external NBASE-T PHY IP.

The reset value sets the link timer to approximately 1.6 ms.

Bits [13:0] are reserved and always set to 0.
