5.15.9. CPRI Gigabit Media Independent Interface (GMII)
Signal Name | Width (Bits) | I/O Direction | Description |
---|---|---|---|
TX Interface | |||
gmii_txen[N] | 1 | Output | Valid signal for GMII interface that indicate data is valid. This signal required to be asserted two clock cycles earlier for the character S to be inserted into the data stream as the start of packet before takes in the real GMII data. The deassertion of this signal trigger the assertion of /T/R as the representation of end of packet.
This signal is going to CPRI MAC interface. |
gmii_txer[N] | 1 | Output | Ethernet transmit coding error. When this signal is asserted, char /V/ will be inserted and pass into the CPRI link. This signal is going to CPRI MAC interface. |
gmii_txd[N] | 8 | Output | Ethernet transmit data. The data transmitted from the external Ethernet block to the CPRI IP core, for transmission on the CPRI link. This input bus is synchronous to the rising edge of gmii_txclk clock. This signal is going to CPRI MAC interface. |
gmii_txfifo_status[N] | 4 | Input | Ethernet TX PCS FIFO fill level status. The individual bits have the following meanings:
|
RX Interface | |||
gmii_rxdv[N] | 1 | Input | Ethernet receive data valid. Indicates the presence of valid data or initial start-of-packet control character on gmii_rxd. This signal is going to CPRI MAC interface. |
gmii_rxer[N] | 1 | Input | Ethernet receive error. Indicates an error on gmii_rxd. When this signal is asserted, the value on gmii_rxd is 0x0E. This signal is going to CPRI MAC interface. |
gmii_rxd[N] | 8 | Input | Ethernet receive data. Data bus for data from the CPRI IP to the external Ethernet block. All bits are deasserted during reset, and all bits are asserted after reset until the CPRI IP achieves frame synchronization. This signal is going to CPRI MAC interface. |
gmii_rxfifo_status[N] | 4 | Input | Ethernet RX PCS FIFO fill level status. The individual bits have the following meanings:
