TBI Rx Elastic Buffer
For SGMII / Dynamic Switching
R
The Rx Elastic Buffer used for the SGMII or Dynamic Standards Switching is identical to the method use in “SGMII Fabric Rx Elastic Buffer.”
For 1000BASE-X
Figure E-3 illustrates the Rx Elastic Buffer depth and thresholds when using the Ten-Bit- Interface with the 1000BASE-X standard. This buffer is intentionally smaller than the equivalent buffer for SGMII/Dynamic Switching; because a larger size is not required, the buffer is kept smaller to save logic and keep latency low. Each FIFO word corresponds to a single character of data (equivalent to a single byte of data following 8B10B decoding).
