In this figure, the colors have the following meanings:
• Green-Altera- Cores available Quartus II IP Library, including the 1G/10Gb Ethernet MAC, the Reset
Controller, and Transceiver Reconfiguration Controller.
• Orange-Arbitration Logic Requirements. Logic you must design, including the Arbiter and State
Machine. Refer to 10GBASE-KR PHY Arbitration Logic Requirements on page 4-14 and
10GBASE-KR PHY State Machine Logic Requirements on page 4-15 for a description of this logic.
• White - 1G,10G and AN/LT settings files that you must generate. Refer to Creating a 10GBASE-KR
Design on page 4-49 for more information.
• Blue-The 10GBASE-KR PHY IP core available in the Quartus II IP Library.

As this figure illustrates, the 10GBASE-KR PHY is built on the Native PHY and includes the following
additional blocks implemented in soft logic to implement Ethernet functionality defined in Clause 72 of
IEEE 802.3ap-2007.
Link Training (LT), Clause 72
This module performs link training as defined in Clause 72. The module facilitates two features:
• Daisy-chain mode for non-standard link configurations where the TX and RX interfaces connect to
different link partners instead of in a spoke and hub or switch topology.
