AM6546: RGMII Rx Signals not meeting the RGMII v2.0 Timing Requirements

Part Number: AM6546

Hi,

We are using the AM6546 in our Design with DP83867ERGZ for 1000BASE connection(LAN and WAN) in our Project.

We are doing the Hardware Validation and are doing the Electrical signal measurements to verify the RGMII v2.0 Timing Requirements.

Below are our measurements

RGMII Timing Parameters 1000BASE
Tx/Rx Parameter Requirement Measured
RX 1000BASE Rx Setup Time 2ns 2.8ns
Rx Hold Time 2ns 5.3ns
Rx Clock Cycle 8ns 8ns
Rx Clock Fall Time 0.75ns 1.75ns
Rx Clock Rise Time 0.75ns 1.75ns

From our measurements we see the Rx signals are not meeting the Timing requirements.

Since these are just point to point connections with only series termination resistor in between, we do not have any control in hardware for these signals.

We need your help to analyze and resolve this issue.

I have attached the snapshots of our measurements as well.

Please let us know how to resolve this.

Regards
