Interfacing to Other Cores

Ethernet 1000Base-X PCS/PMA or SGMII Core

The GEMAC core can be integrated in a single device with the Ethernet 1000BASE-X
PCS/PMA or SGMII core to extend core functionality to provide the following:
1000BASE-X Physical Coding Sublayer (PCS) logic designed to the IEEE 802.3 specification
with either:

1000BASE-X Physical Medium Attachment (PMA) using a device-specific RocketIO™
transceiver.
♦
Virtex®-5 SXT and LXT devices use RocketIO GTP transceivers
♦
Virtex-5 FXT devices use RocketIO GTX transceivers
After the first introduction of a device-specific RocketIO transceiver, all subsequent
references use the generic term RocketIO transceiver.
1000BASE-X parallel Ten-Bit-Interface (TBI) for connection to external SERDES.
Alternatively, the Ethernet 1000BASE-X PCS/PMA or SGMII core can function as a
GMII to Serial-GMII (SGMII) bridge, meaning that this can be used to provide the
GEMAC core with an SGMII for serial connection to appropriate PHYs.
