Cyclone V SX transceiver ethernet

Hi, I'm looking to possibly implement 1000BASE-KX using the TSE IP and the GXB transceivers. Am I able to route the transceivers directly to the backplane connections or do I require additional ph...

    HI,


    Cyclone V FPGA transceiver channel doesn't support backplane. So, you won't find any Ethernet IP targeting backplane support for Cyclone V FPGA.


    For backplane support, it's mainly for more high end FPGA like Arria 10.


    I am sorry but it seems like we don't have Ethernet IP solution support for 1000BASE-KX. Even Triple Speed Ethernet (TSE) IP for high end FPGA is not designed to support backplane as well


    Regards,
