2.11.17.2. Asynchronous Adapter Clock in 100G Mode

When Enable asynchronous adapter clocks is enabled, i_clk_rx and i_clk_tx can be asynchronous from each other and from o_clk_pll_div64 clock as long as the clocks are fast enough to ensure all data is processed by a channel.

Note: For 100G mode, the asynchronous adapter clocks are only available when PTP is disabled.
Figure 57. Clock Connection in Asynchronous FIFO Operation

Below table summarizes minimum and maximum frequencies required for i_clk_rx and i_clk_tx during the Asynchronous mode.

Table 61.  Supported Clock Rates for MAC Client Asynchronous FIFO Operation in 100G ModeThe below rates assume 1 byte IPG and disabled preamble-pass-through.
