Overview of Operation
R
SGMII Standard
Figure 10-2
illustrates the operation of SGMII Auto-Negotiation. Additional information
about SGMII Standard Auto-Negotiation is provided in the following sections.
The SGMII capable PHY has two distinctive sides to Auto-Negotiation.
•
The PHY performs Auto-Negotiation with its link partner using the relevant Auto-
Negotiation standard for the chosen medium (BASE-T Auto-Negotiation is illustrated
in
Figure 10-2
, using a twisted copper pair as its medium). This resolves the
operational speed and duplex mode with the link partner.
•
The PHY then passes the results of the Auto-Negotiation process with the link partner
to the Ethernet 1000BASE-X PCS/PMA or SGMII core (in SGMII mode), by leveraging
the 1000BASE-X Auto-Negotiation specification described in
“1000BASE-X Auto-
Negotiation Overview,” page 153
. This transfers the results of the Link Partner Auto-
Negotiation across the SGMII and is the only Auto-Negotiation observed by the core.
This SGMII Auto-Negotiation function, summarized previously, leverages the 1000BASE-
X PCS/PMA Auto-Negotiation function but contains two differences.
•
The duration of the Link Timer of the SGMII Auto-Negotiation is shrunk from 10 ms
to 1.6 ms so that the entire Auto-Negotiation cycle is much faster. See
“Setting the
Configurable Link Timer,” page 156
.
•
The information exchanged is different and now contains speed resolution in addition
to duplex mode. See
“MDIO Register 5: SGMII Auto-Negotiation Link Partner
Ability,” page 140
.
There are no other differences and dealing with the results of Auto-Negotiation can be
handled as described previously in
“1000BASE-X Auto-Negotiation Overview.”
