Couldn't attach the PHY error -19 for Triple Speed Ethernet IP in Quartus Prime

Dear Team, We have two FPGA Boards, 1. Intel Cyclone V Based FPGA Custom Board. 2. Zynq Ultrascale+ MPSoC Based FPGA Custom Board. We want a communication through Ethernet protocol between these ...

Hi


I see that in the device tree for the PHY Node, register values is set to 0x0.

You would need to enter a valid i2c value of the PHY IC.

    Hi JingyangTeh,

    Thanks for the reply. Actually we don't have physical PHY IC, rather we want everything as soft IP inside design itself.

    We are not configuring the TSE IP as SGMII mode or RGMII to map to physical PHY (since we don't have).
    We are configuring it as transceiver (GXB) 1000 Base-X mode, so that we will be getting differential transceiver line (TXP, TXN, RXP, RXN) which we are mapping backplane connector that will go to another FPGA board.

    And the node mention in the device tree is using the physical address which is configured as 0 under PCS options.

    I have attached the image below, the pcs option phy id which we are using in the device as a node

    So please kindly guide us to solve in this scenario.

    Regards,
    Venkatesh
