i.MX 6ULL supports two 10/100Mbps (MII/RMII) Ethernet interfaces. This design requires two 100 Base-T Ethernet ports so the DP83849I-Dual Ethernet PHY is used in this design. This Ethernet PHY supports two RMII interface and able to work from a single 3.3V supply. The PHY needs an external 50MHz oscillator to function properly. To connect MDI to the Cat5e cable, we used a dual RJ45 connector with internal magnetics from Wurth Elektronik. The addresses for the two separate PHYs are listed in Table 2.
PHY Number | PHY Address |
---|---|
PHY1 | 0b00000 |
PHY2 | 0b00001 |
The Ethernet interface connections are shown in Figure 12.
