SGMII Timing Requirements

SGMII operating mode is supported through FPGA fabric using SGMII PCS soft IP and LVDS SERDES IP. Refer to the LVDS SERDES Specifications section for timing specifications.

SGMII+ operating mode is supported through FPGA fabric using SGMII+ PCS soft IP and serial transceiver interface. Refer to the Transceiver Performance Specifications section for timing specifications.

144 Rise and fall times depend on the I/O standard, drive strength, and loading. Intel recommends simulating your configuration.
145 If you connect a PHY that does not implement clock-to-data skew, you can delay TX_CLK by 1.5–2.0 ns with the HPS I/O programmable delay, to meet the PHY's 1 ns data-to-clock skew requirement.
146 If you connect a PHY that does not implement clock-to-data skew, you can meet the HPS EMAC’s 1 ns setup time by delaying RX_CLK by 1.5–2 ns, using the HPS I/O programmable delay.
