Name Description
ENET_GTX_CLK GTX_CLK TXC 125-MHz, 25-MHz, or 2.5-MHz transmit clock with ±50 ppm tolerance
based on the selected speed.
ENET_TX_EN TX_EN TX_CTL Transmit control signals. TX_EN is encoded on the rising edge of
GTX_CLK, TX_ER, XORed with TX_EN is encoded on this falling
edge of GTX_CLK.
ENET_TXD[3:0] TXD[3:0] TD[3:0] Transmit data. In 1000 base-T and 1000 base-X modes, TXD[3:0]
are presented on both edges of GTX_CLK. In 100 base-T and 10
base-T modes, TXD[3:0] are presented on the rising edge of
GTX_CLK.
ENET_RX_CLK RX_CLK RXC 125-MHz, 25-MHz, or 2.5-MHz receive clock ±50 ppm tolerance
derived from the received data stream and based on the selected
speed.
ENET_RX_DV RX_DV RX_CTL Receive control signals. RX_DV is encoded on the rising edge of
RX_CLK, RX_ER XORed with RX_DV is encoded on the falling
edge of RX_CLK.
ENET_RXD[3:0] RXD[3:0] RD[3:0] Receive data. In 1000 base-T and 1000 base-X modes, RXD[3:0]
are presented on both edges of RX_CLK. In 100 base-TX and 10
base-T modes, RXD[3:0] are presented on the rising edge of
RX_CLK.
