ESC devices with Ethernet Physical Layer are able to support MII interfaces, RMII interfaces, and EBUS interfaces. Since RMII PHYs include TX FIFOs, the RMII PHYs increase the packet forwarding delay of an ESC device as well as the jitter. RMII as an Ethernet Physical Layer is not supported on this device due to these reasons and therefore only the MII interface is supported.
Table 31-3 depicts the number of pins needed for MII interface for two ports.
Pin | Number of Pins for 2 Ports |
MII | Direction | Description |

nMII_Link | 2 | Yes | IN | Input signal provided by the PHY, if a 100 Mbits/s (full duplex) link is established |
RX_CLK | 2 | Yes | IN | Receive Clock |
RX_DV | 2 | Yes | IN | Receive Data valid |
RX_DATA[1:0] | 4 | Yes | IN | Receive Data |
RX_DATA[3:2] | 4 | Yes | IN | Receive Data |
RX_ERR | 2 | Yes | IN | Receive error |
TX_CLK(1) | 2 | Optional | IN | Transmit Clock |
TX_ENA | 2 | Yes | OUT | Transmit Enable |
TX_DATA[1:0] | 4 | Yes | OUT | Transmit Data |
TX_DATA[3:2] | 4 | Yes | OUT | Transmit Data |
MCLK | 1 | Yes | OUT | MII Interface clock |
MDIO | 1 | Yes | BI-Directional | MII Interface Data |
Total Pins: | 28 (required) + 2 (optional) |
