Abstract

This application provides an auto-negotiation method, a clock and data recovery unit, and a circuit board. The method includes: a line-side subunit performing a first auto-negotiation process with the peer device to determine a capability mode; and a host-side subunit performing a second auto-negotiation process with the switch unit based on the capability mode to achieve auto-negotiation between the switch unit and the peer device. Thus, this application achieves indirect auto-negotiation between the switch unit and the peer device through a two-stage auto-negotiation process, which conforms to protocol specifications and is easy to implement.
