PRODUCTION DATA
The Media Independent Interface (MII) is a synchronous 4-bit wide nibble data interface that connects the PHY to the MAC. The MII is fully compliant with IEEE 802.3-2015 clause 22. The PHY has internal series termination resistors on MII output pins including TX_CLK output when the PHY is operating in MII mode. In this mode, it is recommended to not leave the MII-TX pins floating or High-Z.
The MII signals are summarized in Table 7-4:
