f2a_tx_clk

1

Output

A 156.25MHz clock derived from the HSSI PHY’s clock generation block (CGB) tx_pma_div_clkout clock output. All transmit data and control from the MAC to the HSSI PHY is synchronous to f2a_tx_clk.

A 312.5MHz clock derived from the HSSI PHY’s CGB tx_pma_div_clkout clock output. All transmit data and control from the MAC/PHY to the HSSI PHY is synchronous to f2a_tx_clk.

f2a_tx_clkx2

1

Output

A 312.5MHz clock derived from the HSSI PHY’s CGB tx_pma_div_clkout clock output and phase-aligned with f2a_tx_clk.

A 312.5MHz clock derived from the PHY’s CGB tx_pma_div_clkout clock output and phase-aligned with f2a_tx_clk.

f2a_tx_locked

1

Output

Locked status for f2a_tx_clk and f2a_tx_clkx2.

Locked status for f2a_tx_clk and f2a_tx_clkx2.

f2a_rx_clk_ln0

1

Output

A 156.25MHz clock derived from the HSSI PHY’s transmitter and receive CDR PLL clock input reference. All receive data and control from the HSSI PHY to the MAC is synchronous to f2a_rx_clk_ln0.

A 312.5MHz clock derived from the HSSI PHY’s receive CDR in lane 0. All receive data and control from the HSSI PHY to the MAC/PHY is synchronous to f2a_rx_clk_ln0.

f2a_rx_clkx2_ln0

1

Output

A 312.5MHz clock derived from the HSSI PHY’s transmitter and receive CDR PLL clock input reference and phase-aligned with f2a_rx_clk_ln0.

A 312.5MHz clock derived from the HSSI PHY’s receive CDR in lane 0 and phase-aligned with f2a_rx_clk_ln0.

f2a_rx_locked_ln0

1

Output

Locked status for f2a_rx_clk_ln0 and f2a_rx_clkx2_ln0.
