Notes:
1.
Applies to GBEn_REFCLK signal operating in RGMII mode.
2.
Measurement points for Rise time are 20% GBE VCC to 80% GBE VCC.
3.
Measurement points for Fall time are 80% GBE VCC to 20% GBE VCC.
4.
The maximum allowable jitter is 80 ps. This jitter can be less but never greater than 80 ps. This
reference clock jitter directly translates into the jitter produced on the GBEn_TxCLK signal. For
example, a 40 ps jitter on the reference clock input would generate the same 40 ps jitter on the
GBEn_TxCLK signal.
5.
Guaranteed by design. These values are typical values seen for this process, but not measured
during production testing.
Figure 49-35 shows the RGMII 125 MHz reference clock timing diagram.
