MPP[32]/GE1[12] I/O CMOS VDD_GE_B RGMII Transmit Clock
RGMII transmit reference output clock for GE_TXD[3:0] and
GE_TXCTL Provides 125 MHz, 25 MHz or 2.5 MHz clock.
Not used in MII/MMII mode.
MII/MMII Carrier Sense
Indicates that the receive medium is non-idle. In half-duplex
mode, GE_CRS is also asserted during transmission. Carrier
sense is not synchronous to any clock.
GMII Carrier Sense
MPP[33]/GE1[13] t/s
OCMOS VDD_GE_B RGMII Transmit Control
Transmit control synchronous to the GE_TXCLKOUT output
rising/falling edge.
GE_TXEN is presented on the rising edge of GE_TXCLKOUT.
A logical derivative of transmit enable transmit error is presented
on the falling edge of GE_TXCLKOUT.
MII/MMII Transmit Error
It is synchronous to transmit clock.
NOTE:Multiplexed on MPP.
GMII Transmit Error
It Is synchronous to GE_TXCLKOUT.
NOTE:Multiplexed on MPP.
MPP[34]/GE1[14] O CMOS VDD_GE_B MII/MMII Transmit Enable
Indicates that the packet is being transmitted to the PHY. It Is
synchronous to transmit clock.
MPP[35]/GE1[15] I CMOS VDD_GE_B MII/MMII Receive Error
Indicates that an error symbol, a false carrier, or a carrier
extension symbol is detected on the cable. It is synchronous to
GE_RXCLK input.
NOTE:Multiplexed on MPP.
