14 years agoHow to provide different clock for PHY Device
My board DE2-115
My PHY Device:88E1111 My project is about simple socket server.Now I can send words or command via Telnet or Ping, when I use a router(100Mbps). But, when I directly connect the board and PC with a cross-over cable , I failed. Then when I fix my pc for 100Mbps and connect the board and PC with a cross-over cable, I succeed. So if I want to use 1000Mbps, what should I do ? I know I need to provide different clock to Marvell 88E1111 PHY Device for different speed. Such as 2.5MHz for 10mbps/ 25MHz for 100mbps /125MHz for 1000mbps. Who can tell me how to change the clock and where to change the clock,provided for phy device. It is the first time for me to post a thread, I hope that somebody could help me to solve this problem.27 Replies

The PHY provides that. Download and examine examples from Altera.

My project is just provided by Altera.
My SOPC is WEB_SERVER(rgmii) provided by CD of DE2-115. MY software is simple_socket_server(RGMII) I need to change something in SOPCBuilder or top level file? The datasheet of 88E1111 show me that the frequency, provided for PHY, is changed automatically. When it is 1000Mbps, we get 125Mhz. When it is 100Mbps, we get 25Mhz. - Altera_Forum

When I conect my board and PC, the ENET0 LED1000 is bright. Does that mean my PC support 1000Mbps

I'd say yes, the board PHY recognize the 1Gbit link.
