3.1.2. Resetting the Transceiver with the PHY IP Embedded Reset Controller During Device Power-Up

Follow this reset sequence to ensure a reliable link initialization after the initial power-up.

The numbers in the following figure correspond to the following numbered list, which guides you through the transceiver reset sequence during device power-up.

  1. During device power-up, mgmt_rst_reset and phy_mgmt_clk_reset must be asserted to initialize the reset sequence. phy_mgmt_clk_reset holds the transceiver blocks in reset and mgmt_rst_reset is required to start the calibration IPs. Both these signals should be held asserted for a minimum of two phy_mgmt_clk clock cycles. If phy_mgmt_clk_reset and mgmt_rst_reset are driven by the same source, deassert them at the same time. If the two signals are not driven by the same source, phy_mgmt_clk_reset must be deasserted before mgmt_rst_reset.
  2. After the transmitter calibration and reset sequence are complete, the tx_ready status signal is asserted and remains asserted to indicate that the transmitter is ready to transmit data.
  3. After the receiver calibration and reset sequence are complete, the rx_ready status signal is asserted and remains asserted to indicate that the receiver is ready to receive data.
Note: If the tx_ready and rx_ready signals do not stay asserted, the reset sequence did not complete successfully and the link will be down.
