Designing with the Client-side GMII for the 1000BASE-X Standard
Normal Frame Reception with Extension Field
In accordance with the IEEE 802.3, clause 36, state machines for the 1000BASE-X PCS,
gmii_rx_er may be driven high following reception of the end frame in conjunction with
gmii_rxd[7:0] containing the hexadecimal value of 0x0F to signal carrier extension.
This is illustrated in
information.
This is not an error condition and may occur even for full-duplex frames.
Frame Reception with Errors
The signal gmii_rx_er when asserted within the assertion window signals that a frame
was received with a detected error
detected during the Carrier Extension interval. This is indicated by gmii_rxd[7:0]
containing the hexadecimal value 0x1F, also illustrated in
Ethernet 1000BASE-X PCS/PMA or SGMII v9.1
