+\subsection{Signal Description}
+
+In the new media interface several signals were introduced to provide
+status information and steer the state machines.
+
+The signals used in the SerDes TX and RX state machines are taken from the LatticeSemi
+example code available on the web. These state machines behave the same, but have been extended 
+to include TX channel serializer synchronization and RX channel WordAlignment.
+
+\begin{itemize*}
+  \item \texttt{LINK\_TX\_READY} is set when the TX PLLs inside \textbf{all used} QUADs are locked, 
+  the serializers are synced and kommas can be transmitted.
+  \item \texttt{LINK\_RX\_READY} is set when the RX CDR of \textbf{one specific} SerDes is locked, 
+  correct word alignment is found and kommas can be received.
+  \item \texttt{LINK\_HALF\_DONE} is set when a SerDes has received a sequence of at least 16 toggling
+  idles.
+  \item \texttt{LINK\_FULL\_DONE} is set when a SerDes has received a sequence of at least 16 steady
+  idles after having set the \texttt{LINK\_HALF\_DONE} signal.
+  \item \texttt{xxx}
+\end{itemize*}
