Why rx_pcs_fully_aligned signal keep toggling in the GTS PMA/FEC Direct PHY IP when configured to the PCS Direct mode (IEEE MII Interface)? - Why rx_pcs_fully_aligned signal keep toggling in the GTS PMA/FEC Direct PHY IP when configured to the PCS Direct mode (IEEE MII Interface)? Description The rx_pcs_fully_aligned signal keeps toggling in the GTS PMA/FEC Direct PHY IP when configured to the PCS Direct mode (IEEE MII Interface) due to the one-bit shift in PCS data mapping for 80-bit data. Resolution To work around this problem, follow the table below for data bit mapping if using GTS PMA/FEC Direct PHY IP in PCS Direct mode (IEEE MII Interface).

It is not recommended to use this bit. This will not impact the functionality.
