General Description

The KSZ9021RL is a completely integrated triple speed (10Base-T/100Base-TX/1000Base-T) Ethernet Physical Layer Transceiver for transmission and reception of data over standard CAT-5 unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable.

Features

? Single-chip 10/100/1000Mbps IEEE 802.3 compliant Ethernet Transceiver

? RGMII interface compliant to RGMII Version 1.3

? RGMII I/Os with 3.3V/2.5V tolerant and programmable timings to adjust and correct delays on both Tx and Rx paths

? Auto-negotiation to automatically select the highest link up speed (10/100/100Mbps) and duplex (half/full)

? On-chip termination resistors for the differential pairs

? On-chip LDO controller to support single 3.3V supply operation – requires only external FET to generate 1.2V for the core

? Jumbo frame support up to 16KB

? 125MHz Reference Clock Output

? Programmable LED outputs for link, activity and speed

? Baseline Wander Correction

? LinkMD? TDR-based cable diagnostics for identification of faulty copper cabling

? Parametric NAND Tree support for fault detection between chip I/Os and board.

? Loopback modes for diagnostics

? Automatic MDI/MDI-X crossover for detection and correction of pair swap at all speeds of operation

? Automatic detection and correction of pair swap, pair skew and pair polarity

? MDC/MDIO Management Interface for PHY register configuration

? Interrupt pin option

? Power down and power saving modes

? Operating Voltages
