AM69A: How to use SysConfig to determine which ports support XFI

Hi Tim,

Due to a holiday in India, half of our team is currently out of office. Please expect a 1~2 day delay in responses.

Apologies for the delay and thank you for your patience.

Hi,

I believe that the CPSW9X supports a limited number of XFI ports. However, I find I can only set an SGMII port type.

Yes, CPSW9X in AM69 supports limited number of ZFI ports which are Port-1, Port-2. Only these two ports supports XFI/USXGMII modes.

How do I set XFI as a port type and then determine how many instances of XFI and which pins I can use?

Serial interfaces supported via SerDes, the pins will be common for the any of serial interface as shown below.


For more details about SerDes instances and supported interfaces, please refer to TRM and below image.


In above SerDes Image, Lane2 corresponding to Port-1, Lane3 corresponding to Port-2 for XFI/USXGMII/QSGMII/SGMII interface.

Which pins to be used and how many instances of interface to be used can be configured while configuration of SerDes, not from sysconfig tool.
