  8. 8Revision History

7.2 Ethernet PHY and TX Data Signals Change

If the Common Processor board has revision 2.0 of the AM65x silicon, the TX Data and Control signals can be connected to the correct pins on the PHY using the alternate MII TX signal pin muxing. If the alternate pin muxing is selected, no additional changes to the board are needed.

The alternate pin muxing for the TX signals was added in the 2.0 revision of the AM65x silicon. If the Common Processor Board has a revision 1.0 silicon or the default pinmux is desired, an additional modification to the board is needed.

The change involves using an alternate resistor installation pattern for the TX signal steering circuit on the IDK Application board. Figure 7-9 illustrates the difference between the installations of the TX steering resistors for RGMII as delivered on the left vs the installation for MII on the right. Note the clockwise shift in the installation
