Chapter 3: Client, Host, and MDIO Interfaces
Client Underrun
The timing of an aborted transfer is shown in
FIFO connected to the client interface empties, before a frame is completed. When the
client asserts CLIENTEMAC#TXUNDERRUN during a frame transmission, the
EMAC#PHYTXER is asserted for one clock cycle to notify the external PHY that the frame
is corrupted in MII and GMII modes. In 1000BASE-X PCS/PMA mode, the Ethernet MAC
inserts an error code (/V/) into the current frame to signal corruption. It then falls back to
idle transmission. EMAC#PHYTXER is asserted some cycles after. The client must requeue
the aborted frame for transmission.
When an underrun occurs, to request a new transmission, reassert
CLIENTEMAC#TXDVLD on the clock cycle after the CLIENTEMAC#TXUNDERRUN is
asserted.
