2.3. TX MII Interface (64b/66b)
Port Name | Width (Bits) | Domain | Description |
---|---|---|---|
i_tx_mii_d[63:0] | 64 | o_tx_clkout2 | TX MII data. Data must be in MII encoding. i_tx_mii_d[7:0] holds the first byte that the IP core transmits on the CPRI link. i_tx_mii_d[0] holds the first bit the IP core transmits on the CPRI link. |
i_tx_mii_c[7:0] | 8 | o_tx_clkout2 | TX MII control bits. Each bit corresponds to a byte of the TX MII data signal. For example, i_tx_mii_c[0] corresponds to i_tx_mii_d[7:0], i_tx_mii_c[1] corresponds to i_tx_mii_d[15:8], and so on. If the value of a bit is 1, the corresponding data byte is a control byte. If the value of a bit is 0, the corresponding data byte is data. The Start of Packet byte (0xFB) and End of Packet byte (0xFD) are control bytes. |
Figure 1. Transmitting Data Using TX MII InterfaceThis figure shows how to write packets directly to the TX MII interface.
- The packets are written using MII. Each byte in i_tx_mii_d has a corresponding bit in i_tx_mii_c that indicates whether the byte is a control byte or a data byte; for example, i_tx_mii_c[1] is the control bit for i_tx_mii_d[15:8].
- The byte order for the TX MII interface flows from right to left; the first byte to be transmitted from the interface is i_tx_mii_d[7:0].
- The first bit to be transmitted from the interface is i_tx_mii_d[0].
