6.1.4.1. GMII Clock Signals

Table 59.  GMII Clocks
Name I/O Description
rx_clk_125 I 125 MHz receive clock for the RX datapath on MAC side
tx_clk_125 I 125 MHz transmit clock for the TX datapath on MAC side.
rx_clk_62_5 I 62.5 MHz receive clock for the RX datapath on PCS side.

Intel® recommends that this clock and rx_clk_125 share the same clock source. This clock must be synchronous to rx_clk_125. Their rising edges must align and must have 0 ppm and phase shift.

tx_clk_62_5 I 62.5 MHz transmit clock for the TX datapath on PCS side.

Intel® recommends that this clock and tx_clk_125 share the same clock source. This clock must be synchronous to tx_clk_125. Their rising edges must align and must have 0 ppm and phase shift.
