the clock reference symbol representation is based on three letters representing the clock of a particular functional. For
example, the subscript of t represents the MII (M) receive (RX) clock. For rise and fall times, the latter convention is used
MRX
with the appropriate letter: R (rise) or F (fall).

SGMII Interface Electrical Characteristics
Each SGMII port features a 4-wire AC-Coupled serial link from the dedicated SerDes 2 interface of
MPC8572E as shown in Figure 22, where C is the external (on board) AC-Coupled capacitor. Each
TX
output pin of the SerDes transmitter differential pair features 50-Ω output impedance. Each input of the
SerDes receiver differential pair features 50-Ω on-die termination to SGND_SRDS2 (xcorevss). The
reference circuit of the SerDes transmitter and receiver is shown in Figure 54.
When an eTSEC port is configured to operate in SGMII mode, the parallel interface’s output signals of
this eTSEC port can be left floating. The input signals should be terminated based on the guidelines
described in Section 21.5, “Connection Recommendations,” as long as such termination does not violate
the desired POR configuration requirement on these pins, if applicable.
