Gigabit Ethernet using FPGA in cyclone 5 De10 nano board

I am using the cyclone 5 DE10 nano board. Is there any way I can connect the ethernet PHY to the FPGA using the TSE IP? Can the pins be shared between the HPS and the FPGA?

Hi,


FYI... Intel FPGA forum community is meant to support dev kit board developed by Intel only and not for 3rd party vendor board like this DE10-Nano board which is development by Terasic


  1. Is there any way I can connect the ethernet PHY to the FPGA using the TSE IP ?
  • I can comment TSE IP do support RGMII interface but I am not familiar with the PHY chip on DE10-nano board.
    • Feel free to contact terasic directly to check out with them
  1. Can the pins be shared between the HPS and the FPGA ?
  • No, Cyclone V SOC HPS has its own dedicated IO pins while FPGA has its own dedicated IO pins


Thanks.
