A unique mixed signal design extends signaling distance while reducing power consumption. HP Auto MDI/MDI-X provides the most robust solution for eliminating the need to differentiate between crossover and straight-through cables. The KSZ8041NL represents a new level of features and performance and is an ideal choice of physical layer transceiver for 10Base-T/100Base-TX applications. The KSZ8041RNL is an enhanced RMII version of the KSZ8041NL that does not requi re a 50MHz system clock. It uses a 25MHz crystal for its input reference clock and outputs a 50MHz RMII reference clock to the MAC. The KSZ8041NL and KSZ8041RNL are available in 32- pin, lead-free MLF® (QFN per JDEC) packages (See Ordering Information).

Micrel, Inc. KSZ8041NL/RNL September 2010 20 M9999-090910-1.4 Functional Description The KSZ8041NL is a single 3.3V supply Fast Ethernet transceiver. It is fully compliant with the IEEE 802.3u Specification. On the media side, the KSZ8041NL supports 10Base-T and 100Base-TX with HP auto MDI/MDI-X for reliable detection of and correction for straight-through and crossover cables. The KSZ8041NL offers a choice of MII or RMII data interf ace connection with the MAC processor. The MII management bus option gives the MAC processor complete access to th e KSZ8041NL control and status registers. Additionally, an interrupt pin eliminates the need for the processor to poll for PHY status change. Physical signal transmission and reception are enhanced th rough the use of patented analog circuitries that make the design more efficient and allow for lower power consumption and smaller chip die size. The KSZ8041RNL is an enhanced RMII version of the KSZ8041NL that does not require a 50MHz system clock. It uses a 25MHz crystal for its input reference clock and outputs a 50MHz RMII reference clock to the MAC. 100Base-TX Transmit The 100Base-TX transmit function performs parallel-to-s erial conversion, 4B/5B codi ng, scrambling, NRZ-to-NRZI conversion, and MLT3 encoding and transmission. The circuitry starts with a parallel-to-serial conversion, which converts the MII data from the MAC into a 125MHz serial bit stream. The data and control stream is then converted into 4B/5 B coding, followed by a scrambler. The serialized data is further converted from NRZ-to-NRZI format, and then transmitted in MLT3 current output. The output current is set by an external 6.49k Ω 1% resistor for the 1:1 transformer ratio. It has typical rise/fall times of 4 ns and complies with the ANSI TP-PMD standard regarding amplitude balance, ov ershoot and timing jitter. The wave- shaped 10Base-T output drivers are also incorporated into the 100Base-TX drivers. 100Base-TX Receive The 100Base-TX receiver function performs adaptive equalization, DC restoration, MLT3-to-NR ZI conversion, data and clock recovery, NRZI-to-NRZ conversion, de-scrambling, 4B/5B decoding, and serial-to-parallel conversion. The receiving side starts with the equalization filter to compensate for inter-symbol interference (ISI) over the twisted pair cable. Since the amplitude loss and phase distortion is a function of the cable length, the equalizer must adjust its characteristics to optimize performance. In this design, the variable equalizer makes an initial estimation based on comparisons of incoming signal strength against some known cabl e characteristics, and then tunes itself for optimization. This is an ongoing process and self-adjusts against environmental changes such as temperature variations. Next, the equalized signal goes through a DC restoration and dat a conversion block. The DC restoration circuit is used to compensate for the effect of baseline wander and to improve the dynamic range. The differential data conversion circuit converts the MLT3 format back to NRZI. The slicing threshold is also adaptive. The clock recovery circuit extracts the 125MHz clock from the edges of the NRZI signal. This recovered clock is then used to convert the NRZI signal into the NRZ format. This si gnal is sent through the de-sc rambler followed by the 4B/5B decoder. Finally, the NRZ serial data is converted to the MII format and provided as the input data to the MAC. PLL Clock Synthesizer The KSZ8041NL/RNL generates 125M Ηz, 25M Ηz and 20M Ηz clocks for system timing. Internal clocks are generated from an external 25MHz crystal or oscillator. For the KSZ8041NL in RMII mode, these internal clocks are generated from an external 50MHz oscillator or system clock. Scrambler/De-scrambler (100Base-TX only) The purpose of the scrambler is to spread the power spectrum of the signal in order to reduce EMI and baseline wander. 10Base-T Transmit The 10Base-T drivers are incorporated wi th the 100Base-TX drivers to allow for transmission using the same magnetic. The drivers also perform internal wave-shaping and pre-emphasize, and output 10Base-T signals with a typical amplitude of 2.5V peak. The 10Base-T signals ha ve harmonic contents that are at leas t 27dB below the fundamental frequency when driven by an all-ones Manchester-encoded signal.

Micrel, Inc. KSZ8041NL/RNL September 2010 21 M9999-090910-1.4 10Base-T Receive On the receive side, input buffer and level detecting squelch ci rcuits are employed. A differential input receiver circuit and a PLL performs the decoding function. The Manchester-encoded data stream is separated into clock signal and NRZ data. A squelch circuit rejects signals with levels less than 400 mV or with short pulse widths to prevent noise at the RX+ and RX- inputs from falsely trigger the decoder. When the input exceeds the squelch limit, the PLL locks onto the incoming signal and the KSZ8041NL/RNL decodes a data frame. The receive clock is kept active during idle periods in between data reception. SQE and Jabber Function (10Base-T only) In 10Base-T operation, a short pulse is put out on the COL pin after each frame is transmitted. This SQE Test is required as a test of the 10Base-T transmit/recei ve path. If transmit enable (TXEN) is high for more than 20 ms (jabbering), the 10Base-T transmitter is disabled and COL is asserted high. If TXEN is then driven low for more than 250 ms, the 10Base- T transmitter is re-enabled and COL is de-asserted (returns to low). Auto-Negotiation The KSZ8041NL/RNL conforms to the aut o-negotiation protocol, defined in Claus e 28 of the IEEE 802. 3u specification. Auto-negotiation is enabled by either hardware pin strapping (pin 30) or software (register 0h bit 12). Auto-negotiation allows unshielded twisted pair (UTP) link partners to select the highest common mode of operation. Link partners advertise their capabilities to each other, and then co mpare their own capabilities with those they received from their link partners. The highest speed and du plex setting that is common to the two link partners is selected as the mode of operation. The following list shows the speed and duplex operation mode from highest to lowest.

  • Priority 1: 100Base-TX, full-duplex
  • Priority 2: 100Base-TX, half-duplex
  • Priority 3: 10Base-T, full-duplex
  • Priority 4: 10Base-T, half-duplex If auto-negotiation is not supported or the KSZ8041NL/RNL link partner is forced to bypass auto-negotiation, the KSZ8041NL/RNL sets its operating mode by observing the signal at its receiver. This is known as parallel detection, and allows the KSZ8041NL/RNL to establish link by listening for a fixed signal protocol in the absence of auto-negotiation advertisement protocol. The auto-negotiation link up process is shown in the flow chart illustrated as Figure 1.

Figure 1. Auto-Negotiation Flow Chart

  • A physical connection that incorporates t he clock line (MDC) and the data line (MDIO).
  • A specific protocol that operates across the aforementioned physical connection that allows a external controller to communicate with one or more PHY devices. Each KSZ8041NL/RNL device is assigned a unique PHY address between 1 and 7 by its PHYAD[2:0] strapping pins. Also , every KSZ8041NL/RNL device supports the broadcast PHY address 0, as defined per the I EEE 802.3 Specification, which can be used to read/write to a single KSZ8041NL/RNL device, or write to multiple KSZ8041NL/RNL devices simultaneously.
  • A set of 16-bit MDIO registers. Register [0:6] are required, and their functions are defined per the IEEE 802.3 Specification. The additional registers are provided for expanded functionality. The Table 1 shows the MII Management frame format for the KSZ8041NL/RNL. Preamble Start of Frame Read/Write OP Code PHY Address Bits [4:0] REG Address Bits [4:0] TA Data Bits [15:0] Idle Read 32 1’s 01 10 00AAA RRRRR Z0 DDDDDDDD_DDDDDDDD Z Write 32 1’s 01 01 00AAA RRRRR 10 DDDDDDDD_DDDDDDDD Z

Table 1. MII Management Frame Format Bit 9 of register 1Fh sets the interrupt level to active high or active low.

  • Supports 10Mbps and 100Mbps data rates.
  • Uses a 25MHz reference cl ock, sourced by the PHY.
  • Provides independent 4-bit wide (nibble) transmit and receive data paths.
  • Contains two distinct groups of signals: one for transmission and the other for reception. By default, the KSZ8041NL is configured to MII mode after it is power-up or reset with the following:
  • A 25MHz crystal connected to XI, XO (pins 9, 8), or an external 25MHz clock source (oscillator) connected to XI.
  • CONFIG[2:0] (pins 18, 29, 28) set to ‘000’ (default setting).

The Table 2 describes the MII signals. Refer to Clause 22 of the IEEE 802.3 Specification for detailed information. Table 2. MII Signal Definition TXC is sourced by the PHY. It is a continuous clock that provides the timing reference for TXEN and TXD[3:0]. TXC is 2.5MHz for 10Mbps operation and 25MHz for 100Mbps operation. prior to the first TXC following the final nibble of a frame. TXEN transitions synchronously with respect to TXC. is de-asserted are ignored by the PHY. RXC provides the timing reference for RXDV, RXD[3:0], and RXER.

  • In 10Mbps mode, RXC is recovered from the line while carr ier is active. RXC is derived from the PHY’s reference clock when the line is idle, or link is down.
  • In 100Mbps mode, RXC is continuously recovered from t he line. If link is down, RXC is derived from the PHY’s reference clock. RXC is 2.5MHz for 10Mbps operation and 25MHz for 100Mbps operation.

Micrel, Inc. KSZ8041NL/RNL September 2010 25 M9999-090910-1.4 Receive Data Valid (RXDV) RXDV is driven by the PHY to indicate that the PHY is presenting recovered and decoded nibbles on RXD[3:0].

  • In 10Mbps mode, RXDV is asserted with the first nibble of the SFD (Start of Frame Delimiter), “5D”, and remains asserted until the end of the frame.
  • In 100Mbps mode, RXDV is asserted from the first nibbl e of the preamble to the last nibble of the frame. RXDV transitions synchronously with respect to RXC. Receive Data [3:0] (RXD[3:0]) RXD[3:0] transitions synchronously with respect to RXC. For each clock period in which RXDV is asserted, RXD[3:0] transfers a nibble of recovered data from the PHY. Receive Error (RXER) RXER is asserted for one or more RXC periods to indicate that a Symbol Error (e.g. a coding error that a PHY is capable of detecting, and that may otherwise be undetectable by t he MAC sub-layer) was detected somewhere in the frame presently being transferred from the PHY. RXER transitions synchronously with respect to RXC. While RXDV is de-asserted, RXER has no effect on the MAC. Carrier Sense (CRS) CRS is asserted and de-asserted as follows:
  • In 10Mbps mode, CRS assertion is based on the recept ion of valid preambles. CRS de-assertion is based on the reception of an end-of-frame (EOF) marker.
  • In 100Mbps mode, CRS is asserted when a start-of-stream delimiter, or /J/K symbol pair is detected. CRS is de- asserted when an end-of-stream delimiter, or /T/R symbol pair is detected. Additionally, the PMA layer de-asserts CRS if IDLE symbols are received without /T/R. Collision (COL) COL is asserted in half-duplex mode whenever the transmitter an d receiver are simultaneously active on the line. This is used to inform the MAC that a collision has occurred during its transmission to the PHY. COL transitions asynchronously with respect to TXC and RXC. Reduced MII (RMII) Data Interface The Reduced Media Independent Interface (RMII) specifies a low pin count Media Independent Interface (MII). It provides a common interface between physical layer and MAC layer devices, and has the following key characteristics:
  • Supports 10Mbps and 100Mbps data rates.
  • Uses a 50MHz reference clock.
  • Provides independent 2-bit wide (di-bit) transmit and receive data paths.
  • Contains two distinct groups of signals: one for transmission and the other for reception. The KSZ8041NL is configured in RMII mode after it is power-up or reset with the following:
  • A 50MHz reference clock connected to REFCLK (pin 9).
  • CONFIG[2:0] (pins 18, 29, 28) set to ‘001’. The KSZ8041RNL is configured in RMII mode and outputs the 50MHz RMII reference clock to the MAC on REF_CLK (pin 19) after it is power-up or reset with the following:
  • A 25MHz crystal connected to XI (pin 9) and XO (pin 8) , or a 25MHz reference clock connected to XI (pin 9).
  • CONFIG[2:0] (pins 18, 29, 28) set to ‘001’. In RMII mode, unused MII signals, TXD[3:2] (pins 27, 26), are tied to ground.

Table 3. RMII Signal Description – KSZ8041NL Table 4. RMII Signal Description – KSZ8041RNL The KSZ8041NL inputs the 50MHz REF_CLK from the MAC or system board. The KSZ8041RNL generates the 50MHz RMII REF_CLK and outputs it to the MAC. prior to the first REF_CLK following the final di-bit of a frame. TX_EN transitions synchronously with respect to REF_CLK. while TX_EN is de-asserted are ignored by the PHY.

Loss of carrier results in the de-assertion of CRS_DV. relative to REF_CLK, the data on RXD[1:0] is "00" until proper receive signal decoding takes place. than “00” on RXD[1:0] while CRS_DV is de-asserted are ignored by the MAC. frame presently being transferred from the PHY. The MAC regenerates the COL signal of the MII from TX_EN and CRS_DV. The KSZ8041NL RMII pin connections to the MAC are shown in Figure 2. Figure 2. KSZ8041NL RMII Interface
