Hello,
I am Jean-Baptiste and I am currently working on ip designs for Ethernet based network. I currently have a setup with a Netpga CML card on which is plugged the Avnet Network FMC module.
The entire design is pure VHDL thus there is no SW part.
The vadj is set to 1.8V and the power led on the network FMC module shows that vadj value on the dedicated leds.
I am able to properly use part of the board but I do have some issues using this setup.
1) I am running the same MDC/MDIO configuration on port 1 and port 2 of the Avnet Network FMC. Only Port 1 is up and running (I can see Ethernet traffic with wire-shark). However, the second port remains inactive and the activity leds are not showing anything (doesn't matter the applied speed 10/100/1000 Mbit/s).
2) The users leds on the boards are not very bright, it seems that there is not enough intensity in the applied power signal.
Is anyone has experimented some similar issue using this avnet ethernet fmc module?
(Note that I have tried to remove Q1 as described in the Erratum but it doesn't fix my issue with port 2).
Many thanks,
Best regards,
Jean-Baptiste
