SNLS604E September 2020 – November 2022 DP83TG720S-Q1
PRODUCTION DATA
The DP83TG720S-Q1 also supports Reduced Gigabit Media Independent Interface (RGMII) as specified by RGMII version 2.0. RGMII is designed to reduce the number of pins required to connect MAC and PHY. To accomplish this goal, the control signals are multiplexed. Both rising and falling edges of the clock are used to sample the control signal pin on transmit and receive paths. For 1-Gbps operation, RX_CLK and TX_CLK operate at 125 MHz.
The RGMII signals are summarized in Table 7-9:
FUNCTION | PINS |
---|---|
Data Signals | TX_D[3:0] |
RX_D[3:0] | |
Control Signals | TX_CTRL |
RX_CTRL | |
Clock Signals | TX_CLK |
RX_CLK |
TX_CTRL (POSITIVE EDGE) | TX_CTRL (NEGATIVE EDGE) | TX_D[3:0] | DESCRIPTION |
---|---|---|---|
0 | 0 | 0000 through 1111 | Normal Inter-Frame |
0 | 1 | 0000 through 1111 | Reserved |
1 | 0 | 0000 through 1111 | Normal Data Transmission |
1 | 1 | 0000 through 1111 | Transmit Error Propagation |
RX_CTRL (POSITIVE EDGE) | RX_CTRL (NEGATIVE EDGE) | RX_D[3:0] | DESCRIPTION |
---|---|---|---|
0 | 0 | 0000 through 1111 | Normal Inter-Frame |
0 | 1 | 0000 through 1101 | Reserved |
0 | 1 | 1110 | False Carrier Indication |
0 | 1 | 1111 | Reserved |
1 | 0 | 0000 through 1111 | Normal Data Reception |
1 | 1 | 0000 through 1111 | Data Reception with Errors |
The DP83TG720S-Q1 supports in-band status indication to help simplify link status detection. Inter-frame signals on RX_D[3:0] pins as specified in Table 7-12.
RX_CTRL | RX_D3 | RX_D[2:1] | RX_D0 |
---|---|---|---|
0
Note: In-band status is only valid when RX_CTRL is low | Duplex Status: 0 = Half-Duplex 1 = Full-Duplex | RX_CLK Clock Speed: 00 = 2.5 MHz 01 = 25 MHz 10 = 125 MHz 11 = Reserved | Link Status: 0 = Link not established 1 = Valid link established |
RGMII MAC Interface for Gigabit Ethernet has stringent timing requirements to meet system level performance. To meet these timing requirements and to operate with different MACs over RGMII, it is advised to take the following requirements into consideration when designing PCB. It is also recommended to check board level signal integrity by using the DP83TG720 IBIS model.
