Tie-Off Pins

Configuration Vectors

This section describes the 80 tie-off pins (TIEEMAC#CONFIGVEC[79:0]) used to configure 
the Virtex-4 FPGA Embedded Tri-Mode Ethernet MAC. The values of these tie-off pins are 
loaded into the Ethernet MAC at power-up or when the Ethernet MAC is reset. 

When TIEEMAC#CONFIGVEC[67] is High, the host interface is selected. Tie-off pins pre-
configure the internal control registers of the Ethernet MAC. The host interface is then used 
to dynamically change the register contents or to read the registers. When the host 
interface is not selected, the tie-off pins directly control the behavior of the Ethernet MAC. 
However, dynamically changing the register contents using the tie-off pins is not 
recommended.

The configuration vectors are divided into three sections: physical interface configuration 
vectors (

Table 2-9

), mode configuration vectors (

Table 2-10

), and MAC configuration 

vectors (

Table 2-11

). The MAC and physical interface configuration vectors can be 

configured through the host interface and are intended to be used dynamically to change 
register contents or read status registers. The mode configuration vectors preconfigure the 
internal control registers (16-bit, PCS/PMA, Host, SGMII, RGMII, and MDIO interfaces) 
but are not dynamically reconfigurable.

Description

TIEEMAC#CONFIGVEC[79]

Input

Reserved, set to 

1

.

TIEEMAC#CONFIGVEC[78:74] — Only used in SGMII or 1000BASE-X modes. When MDIO and host are omitted from 
the Ethernet MAC, this alternative can be used.

TIEEMAC#CONFIGVEC[78]

Input

PHY_RESET: Asserting this pin resets the PCS/PMA module.

TIEEMAC#CONFIGVEC[77]

Input

PHY_INIT_AN_ENABLE: Asserting this pin enables auto-
negotiation of the PCS/PMA module.

TIEEMAC#CONFIGVEC[76]

Input

PHY_ISOLATE: Asserting this pin causes the PCS/PMA 
sublayer logic to behave as if it is electrically isolated from the 
attached Ethernet MAC, as defined in IEEE Std 802.3, Clause 
22.2.4.1.6. Therefore, frames transmitted by the Ethernet MAC 
are not forwarded through the PCS/PMA. Frames received by 
the PCS/PMA are not relayed to the Ethernet MAC.

TIEEMAC#CONFIGVEC[75]

Input

PHY_POWERDOWN: Asserting this pin causes the MGT to be 
placed in a Low power state. A reset must be applied to clear the 
Low power state.

TIEEMAC#CONFIGVEC[74]

Input

PHY_LOOPBACK_MSB: Asserting this pin sets serial loopback 
in the MGT.
