6.5. PMA/PCS Signals

Table 24.  PMA/PCS SignalsIn this table, N represents the number of lanes set in the IP parameter editor.
Name Width Direction Clock Domain Description

tx_pll_locked

 N Output Asynchronous When asserted, indicates the TX PLL has achieved lock status.

tx_serial_data

 N Output TX serial clock TX serial pins.

rx_serial_data

 N Input RX serial clock RX serial pins.
phy_rx_block_lock N Output Asynchronous When asserted, indicates that the 66b block alignment has completed for the lanes.
rx_cdr_lock N Output Asynchronous When asserted, indicates that the recovered clocks are locked to data.
phy_rx_pcs_ready N Output Asynchronous When asserted, indicates that the RX lanes of the corresponding Ethernet channel are fully aligned and ready to receive data.
phy_rx_hi_ber N Output Asynchronous When asserted, indicates that the RX PCS of the corresponding Ethernet channel is in a HI BER state.
sys_pll_locked 1 Input Asynchronous System/HVIO PLL lock signal used by HIP for monitoring purposes.
Connect this clock to either one of the following two sources:
  • Output signal (o_pll_lock) of the GTS System PLL Clocks Intel FPGA IP.
  • Output signal (locked) of the IOPLL IP.
