KSZ8841-16/32MQL/MVL/MVLI/MBL
Single-Port Ethernet MAC Controller
with Non-PCI Interface
Rev. 1.6
General Description
The KSZ8841-series single-port chip includes PCI and
non-PCI CPU interfaces, and are available in 8/16-bit and
32-bit bus designs. This datasheet describes the
KSZ8841M-series of non-PCI CPU interface chips. For
information on the KSZ8841 PCI CPU interface chips,
refer to the KSZ8841P datasheet.
The KSZ8841M is a single chip, mixed analog/digital
device offering Wake-on-LAN technology for effectively
addressing Fast Ethernet applications. It consists of a Fast
Ethernet MAC controller, an 8-bit, 16-bit, and 32-bit
generic host processor interface and incorporates a unique
dynamic memory pointer with 4-byte buffer boundary and
a fully utilizable 8KB for both TX and RX directions in host
buffer interface.
The KSZ8841M is designed to be fully compliant with the
appropriate IEEE 802.3 standards. An industrial
temperature-grade version of the KSZ8841M, the
KSZ8841MVLI, also can be ordered (see “Ordering
Information section).
LinkMD®
Physical signal transmission and reception are enhanced
through the use of analog circuitry, making the design
more efficient and allowing for lower-power consumption.
The KSZ8841M is designed using a low-power CMOS
process that features a single 3.3V power supply with 5V
tolerant I/O. It has an extensive feature set that offers
management information base (MIB) counters and CPU
control/data interfaces.
The KSZ8841M includes a unique cable diagnostics
®
feature called LinkMD . This feature determines the length
of the cabling plant and also ascertains if there is an open
or short condition in the cable. Accompanying software
enables the cable length and cable conditions to be
conveniently displayed. In addition, the KSZ8841M
supports Hewlett Packard (HP) Auto-MDIX thereby
eliminating the need to differentiate between straight or
crossover cables in applications.

KSZ8841-16/32 MQL/MVL/MBL
Functional Description
The KSZ8841M is a single-chip Fast Ethernet MAC controller consisting of a 10/100 physical layer transceiver (PHY), a
MAC, and a Bus Interface Unit (BIU) that controls the KSZ8841M via an 8-bit, 16-bit, or 32-bit host bus interface.
The KSZ8841M is fully compliant to IEEE802.3u standards.
Functional Overview
Power Management
Power down
The KSZ8841M features a port power-down mode. To save power, the user can power-down the port that is not in use by
setting bit 11 in either P1CR4 or P1MBCR register for this port. To bring the port back up, reset bit 11 in these registers.
In addition, there is a full chip power-down mode PWRDN (pin 36). When this pin is pulled-down, the entire chip powers
down. Transitioning this pin from pull-down to pull-up results in a power up and chip reset.
Wake-on-LAN
Wake-up frame events are used to wake the system whenever meaningful data is presented to the system over the
network. Examples of meaningful data include the reception of a Magic Packet, a management request from a remote
administrator, or simply network traffic directly targeted to the local system. In all of these instances, the network device is
pre-programmed by the policy owner or other software with information on how to identify wake frames from other network
traffic.
A wake-up event is a request for hardware and/or software external to the network device to put the system into a
powered state (working).
A wake-up signal is caused by:
1. Detection of a change in the network link state
2. Receipt of a network wake-up frame
3. Receipt of a Magic Packet
There are also other types of wake-up events that are not listed here as manufacturers may choose to implement these in
their own way.
Link Change
Link status wake events are useful to indicate a change in the network’s availability, especially when this change may
impact the level at which the system should re-enter the sleeping state. For example, a change from link off to link on may
1
trigger the system to re-enter sleep at a higher level (D2 versus D3 ) so that wake frames can be detected. Conversely, a
transition from link on to link off may trigger the system to re-enter sleep at a deeper level (D3 versus D2) since the
network is not currently available.
Wake-up Packet
Wake-up packets are certain types of packets with specific CRC values that a system recognizes as a ‘wake up’ frame.
The KSZ8841M supports up to four users defined wake-up frames as below:
1. Wake-up frame 0 is defined in registers 0x00-0x0A of Bank 4 and is enabled by bit 0 in wakeup frame control register.
2. Wake-up frame 1 is defined in registers 0x00-0x0A of Bank 5 and is enabled by bit 1 in wakeup frame control register.
3. Wake-up frame 2 is defined in registers 0x00-0x0A of Bank 6 and is enabled by bit 2 in wakeup frame control register.
4. Wake-up frame 4 is defined in registers 0x00-0x0A of Bank 7 and is enabled by bit 3 in wakeup frame control register.
Magic Packet
Magic Packet technology is used to remotely wake up a sleeping or powered off PC on a LAN. This is accomplished by
sending a specific packet of information, called a Magic Packet frame, to a node on the network. When a PC capable of
receiving the specific frame goes to sleep, it enables the Magic Packet RX mode in the LAN controller, and when the LAN
controller receives a Magic Packet frame, it will alert the system to wake up.

References to D0, D1, D2, and D3 are power management states defined in a similar fashion to the way they are defined for PCI. For
more information, refer to the PCI specification at www.pcisig.com/specifications/conventional/pcipm1.2.pdf.

KSZ8841-16/32 MQL/MVL/MBL
Magic Packet is a standard feature integrated into the KSZ8841M. The controller implements multiple advanced powerdown modes including Magic Packet to conserve power and operate more efficiently.
Once the KSZ8841M has been put into Magic Packet Enable mode (WFCR[7]=1), it scans all incoming frames addressed
to the node for a specific data sequence, which indicates to the controller this is a Magic Packet (MP) frame.
A Magic Packet frame must also meet the basic requirements for the LAN technology chosen, such as Source Address
(SA), Destination Address (DA), which may be the receiving station’s IEEE address or a multicast or broadcast address
and CRC.
The specific sequence consists of 16 duplications of the IEEE address of this node, with no breaks or interruptions. This
sequence can be located anywhere within the packet, but must be preceded by a synchronization stream. The
synchronization stream allows the scanning state machine to be much simpler. The synchronization stream is defined as
6 bytes of FFh. The device will also accept a broadcast frame, as long as the 16 duplications of the IEEE address match
the address of the machine to be awakened.
example
If the IEEE address for a particular node on a network is 11h 22h, 33h, 44h, 55h, 66h, the LAN controller would be
scanning for the data sequence (assuming an Ethernet frame):
DESTINATION SOURCE – MISC - FF FF FF FF FF FF - 11 22 33 44 55 66 - 11 22 33 44 55 66 - 11 22 33 44 55 66 11 22 33 44 55 66 - 11 22 33 44 55 66 - 11 22 33 44 55 66 - 11 22 33 44 55 66 - 11 22 33 44 55 66 - 11 22 33 44 55 66 11 22 33 44 55 66 - 11 22 33 44 55 66 - 11 22 33 44 55 66 - 11 22 33 44 55 66 - 11 22 33 44 55 66 - 11 22 33 44 55 66 11 22 33 44 55 66 - MISC - CRC.
There are no further restrictions on a Magic Packet frame. For instance, the sequence could be in a TCP/IP packet or an
IPX packet. The frame may be bridged or routed across the network without affecting its ability to wake-up a node at the
frame’s destination.
If the LAN controller scans a frame and does not find the specific sequence shown above, it discards the frame and takes
no further action. If the KSZ8841M controller detects the data sequence, however, it then alerts the PC’s power
management circuitry (assert the PMEN pin) to wake up the system.
Physical Layer Transceiver (PHY)
100BASE-TX Transmit
The 100BASE-TX transmit function performs parallel-to-serial conversion, 4B/5B coding, scrambling, NRZ-to-NRZI
conversion, and MLT3 encoding and transmission.
The circuitry starts with a parallel-to-serial conversion, which converts the MII data from the MAC into a 125MHz serial bit
stream. The data and control stream is then converted into 4B/5B coding, followed by a scrambler. The serialized data is
further converted from NRZ-to-NRZI format, and then transmitted in MLT3 current output. An external 1% 3.01KΩ resistor
for the 1:1 transformer ratio sets the output current.
The output signal has a typical rise/fall time of 4ns and complies with the ANSI TP-PMD standard regarding amplitude
balance, overshoot, and timing jitter. The wave-shaped 10BASE-T output driver is also incorporated into the 100BASE-TX
driver.

100BASE-TX Receive
The 100BASE-TX receiver function performs adaptive equalization, DC restoration, MLT3-to-NRZI conversion, data and
clock recovery, NRZI-to-NRZ conversion, de-scrambling, 4B/5B decoding, and serial-to-parallel conversion.
The receiving side starts with the equalization filter to compensate for inter-symbol interference (ISI) over the twisted pair
cable. Since the amplitude loss and phase distortion is a function of the cable length, the equalizer has to adjust its
characteristics to optimize performance. In this design, the variable equalizer makes an initial estimation based on
comparisons of incoming signal strength against some known cable characteristics, and then tunes itself for optimization.
This is an ongoing process and self-adjusts against environmental changes such as temperature variations.
Next, the equalized signal goes through a DC restoration and data conversion block. The DC restoration circuit is used to
compensate for the effect of baseline wander and to improve the dynamic range. The differential data conversion circuit
converts the MLT3 format back to NRZI. The slicing threshold is also adaptive.
The clock recovery circuit extracts the 125MHz clock from the edges of the NRZI signal. This recovered clock is then used
to convert the NRZI signal into the NRZ format. This signal is sent through the de-scrambler followed by the 4B/5B
decoder. Finally, the NRZ serial data is converted to an MII format and provided as the input data to the MAC.
PLL Clock Synthesizer (Recovery)
The internal PLL clock synthesizer generates 125MHz, 62.5MHz, 41.66MHz, and 25MHz clocks by setting the on-chip
bus speed control register for KSZ8841M system timing. These internal clocks are generated from an external 25Mhz
crystal or oscillator.
Scrambler/De-scrambler (100BASE-TX Only)
The purpose of the scrambler is to spread the power spectrum of the signal to reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI)
and baseline wander.
Transmitted data is scrambled through the use of an 11-bit wide linear feedback shift register (LFSR). The scrambler
generates a 2047-bit non-repetitive sequence. Then the receiver de-scrambles the incoming data stream using the same
sequence as at the transmitter.
10BASE-T Transmit
The 10BASE-T driver is incorporated with the 100BASE-TX driver to allow for transmission using the same magnetics.
They are internally wave-shaped and pre-emphasized into outputs with a typical 2.4V amplitude. The harmonic contents
are at least 27dB below the fundamental frequency when driven by an all-ones Manchester-encoded signal.
10BASE-T Receive
On the receive side, input buffers and level detecting squelch circuits are employed. A differential input receiver circuit and
a phase-locked loop (PLL) perform the decoding function.
The Manchester-encoded data stream is separated into clock signal and NRZ data. A squelch circuit rejects signals with
levels less than 400mV or with short pulse widths to prevent noise at the RXP-or-RXM input from falsely triggering the
decoder. When the input exceeds the squelch limit, the PLL locks onto the incoming signal and the KSZ8841M decodes a
data frame.
The receiver clock is maintained active during idle periods in between data reception.
MDI/MDI-X Auto Crossover
To eliminate the need for crossover cables between similar devices, the KSZ8841M supports HP-Auto MDI/MDI-X and
IEEE 802.3u standard MDI/MDI-X auto crossover. HP-Auto MDI/MDI-X is the default.
The auto-sense function detects remote transmit and receive pairs and correctly assigns the transmit and receive pairs for
the KSZ8841M device. This feature is extremely useful when end users are unaware of cable types in addition to saving
on an additional uplink configuration connection. The auto-crossover feature can be disabled through the port control
registers.

Auto Negotiation
The KSZ8841M conforms to the auto negotiation protocol as described by the 802.3 committee to allow the port to
operate at either 10Base-T or 100Base-TX.
Auto negotiation allows unshielded twisted pair (UTP) link partners to select the best common mode of operation. In auto
negotiation, the link partners advertise capabilities across the link to each other. If auto negotiation is not supported or the
link partner to the KSZ8841M is forced to bypass auto negotiation, the mode is set by observing the signal at the receiver.
This is known as parallel mode because while the transmitter is sending auto negotiation advertisements, the receiver is
listening for advertisements or a fixed signal protocol.
The link setup is shown in the following flow diagram (Figure 9).

LinkMD Cable Diagnostics
The KSZ8841M LinkMD uses time domain reflectometry (TDR) to analyze the cabling plant for common cabling problems
such as open circuits, short circuits, and impedance mismatches.
LinkMD works by sending a pulse of known amplitude and duration down the MDI and MDI-X pairs and then analyzes the
shape of the reflected signal. Timing the pulse duration gives an indication of the distance to the cabling fault with a
maximum distance of 200m and an accuracy of +/–2m. Internal circuitry displays the TDR information in a user-readable
digital format in register P1VCT[8:0].
Note: cable diagnostics are only valid for copper connections – fiber-optic operation is not supported.
Access
LinkMD is initiated by accessing register P1VCT, the LinkMD Control/Status register, in conjunction with register P1CR4,
the 100BASE-TX PHY Controller register.
Usage
LinkMD can be run at any time by ensuring that Auto-MDIX has been disabled. To disable Auto-MDIX, write a ‘1’ to
P1CR4[10] to enable manual control over the pair used to transmit the LinkMD pulse. The self-clearing cable diagnostic
test enable bit, P1VCT[15], is set to ‘1’ to start the test on this pair.
When bit P1VCT[15] returns to ‘0’, the test is complete. The test result is returned in bits P1VCT[14:13] and the distance
is returned in bits P1VCT[8:0]. The cable diagnostic test results are as follows:
00 = Valid test, normal condition
01 = Valid test, open circuit in cable
10 = Valid test, short circuit in cable
11 = Invalid test, LinkMD failed
If P1VCT[14:13]=11, this indicates an invalid test, and occurs when the KSZ8841M is unable to shut down the link
partner. In this instance, the test is not run, as it is not possible for the KSZ8841M to determine if the detected signal is a
reflection of the signal generated or a signal from another source.
Cable distance can be approximated by the following formula:
P1VCT[8:0] x 0.4m for port 1 cable distance
This constant may be calibrated for different cabling conditions, including cables with a velocity of propagation that varies
significantly from the norm.
Media Access Control (MAC) Operation
The KSZ8841M strictly abides by IEEE 802.3 standards to maximize compatibility.
Inter Packet Gap (IPG)
If a frame is successfully transmitted, then the minimum 96-bit time for IPG is measured between two consecutive
packets. If the current packet is experiencing collisions, the minimum 96-bit time for IPG is measured from carrier sense
(CRS) to the next transmit packet.
Back-Off Algorithm
The KSZ8841M implements the IEEE standard 802.3 binary exponential back-off algorithm in half-duplex mode. After 16
collisions, the packet is dropped.
Late Collision
If a transmit packet experiences collisions after 512 bit times of the transmission, the packet is dropped.
Flow Control
The KSZ8841M supports standard 802.3x flow control frames on both transmit and receive sides.
On the receive side, if the KSZ8841M receives a pause control frame, the KSZ8841M will not transmit the next normal
frame until the timer, specified in the pause control frame, expires. If another pause frame is received before the current
timer expires, the timer will be updated with the new value in the second pause frame. During this period (while it is flow
controlled), only flow control packets from the KSZ8841M are transmitted.
On the transmit side, the KSZ8841M has intelligent and efficient ways to determine when to invoke flow control. The flow
October 2007

KSZ8841-16/32 MQL/MVL/MBL
control is based on availability of the system resources.
The KSZ8841M issues a flow control frame (Xoff, or transmitter off), containing the maximum pause time defined in IEEE
standard 802.3x. Once the resource is freed up, the KSZ8841M sends out the another flow control frame (Xon, or
transmitter on) with zero pause time to turn off the flow control (turn on transmission to the port). A hysteresis feature is
provided to prevent the flow control mechanism from being constantly activated and deactivated.
Half-Duplex Backpressure
A half-duplex backpressure option (non-IEEE 802.3 standards) is also provided. The activation and deactivation
conditions are the same as in full-duplex mode. If backpressure is required, the KSZ8841M sends preambles to defer the
other stations' transmission (carrier sense deference).
To avoid jabber and excessive deference (as defined in the 802.3 standard), after a certain time, the KSZ8841M
discontinues the carrier sense and then raises it again quickly. This short silent time (no carrier sense) prevents other
stations from sending out packets thus keeping other stations in a carrier sense deferred state. If the port has packets to
send during a backpressure situation, the carrier sense type backpressure is interrupted and those packets are
transmitted instead. If there are no additional packets to send, carrier sense type backpressure is reactivated again until
chip resources free up. If a collision occurs, the binary exponential back-off algorithm is skipped and carrier sense is
generated immediately, thus reducing the chance of further collision and carrier sense is maintained to prevent packet
reception.
Clock Generator
The X1 and X2 pins are connected to a 25MHz crystal. X1 can also serve as the connector to a 3.3V, 25MHz oscillator
(as described in the pin description).
The bus interface unit (BIU) uses BCLK (Bus Clock) for synchronous accesses. The maximum frequency is 50MHz for
VLBus-like and EISA-like slave direct memory access (DMA).
Bus Interface Unit (BIU)
The BIU host interface is a generic bus interface, designed to communicate with embedded processors. The use of glue
logic may be required when it talks to various standard buses and processors.
Supported Transfers
In terms of transfer type, the BIU can support two transfers: asynchronous transfer and synchronous transfer. To support
these transfers (asynchronous and synchronous), the BIU provides three groups of signals:
Synchronous signals
Asynchronous signals
Common signals are used for both synchronous and asynchronous transfers.
Since both synchronous and asynchronous signals are independent of each other, synchronous transfer and
asynchronous transfer can be mixed or interleaved but cannot be overlapped (due to the sharing of common signals).
Physical Data Bus Size
The BIU supports an 8-bit, 16-bit, or 32-bit host standard data bus. Depending on the size of the physical data bus, the
KSZ8841M supports 8-bit, 16-bit, or 32-bit data transfers
For example,
For a 32-bit system/host data bus, the KSZ8841M allows an 8-bit, 16-bit, and 32-bit data transfer (KSZ8841-32MQL).
For a 16-bit system/host data bus, the KSZ8841M allows an 8-bit and 16-bit data transfer (KSZ8841-16MQL).
For an 8-bit system/host data bus, the KSZ8841M only allows an 8-bit data transfer (KSZ8841-16MQL).
The KSZ8841M does not support internal data byte-swap but it does support internal data word-swap. This means that
the system/host data bus HD[7:0] must connect to both D[7:0] and D[15:8] for an 8-bit data bus interface. For a 16-bit data
bus, the system/host data bus HD[15:8] and HD[7:0] only need to connect to D[15:8] and D[7:0] respectively, and there is
no need to connect HD[15:8] and HD[7:0] to D[31:24] and D[23:16].

Table 2. Bus Interface Unit Signal Grouping
Regardless of whether the transfer is synchronous or asynchronous, if the address latch is required, use the rising edge of
ADSN to latch the incoming signals A[15:1], AEN, BE3N, BE2N, BE1N, and BE0N.
Note: If the local device decoder is used in either synchronous or asynchronous transfers, LDEVN will be asserted to
indicate that the KSZ8841M is successfully targeted. The signal LDEVN is a combinatorial decode of AEN and A[15:4].
Asynchronous Interface
For asynchronous transfers, the asynchronous dedicated signals RDN (for read) or WRN (for write) toggle, but the
synchronous dedicated signals CYCLEN, SWR, and RDYRTNN are de-asserted and stay at the same logic level
throughout the entire asynchronous transfer.
There is no data burst support for asynchronous transfer. All asynchronous transfers are single-data transfers. The BIU,
however, provides flexible asynchronous interfacing to communicate with various applications and architectures. Three
major ways of interfacing with the system (host) are.
1. Interfacing with the system/host relying on local device decoding and having stable address throughout the whole
transfer: The typical example for this application is ISA-like bus interface using latched address signals as shown
in Figure 13. No additional address latch is required, therefore ADSN should be connected Low. The BIU decodes
A[15:4] and qualifies with AEN (Address Enable) to determine if the KSZ8841M device is the intended target. The
host utilizes the rising edge of RDN to latch read data and the BIU will use rising edge of WRN to latch write data.
Interfacing with the system/host relying on local device decoding but not having stable address throughout the entire
transfer: The typical example for this application is EISA-like bus (non-burst) interface as shown in the Figure 14. This
type of interface requires ADSN to latch the address on the rising edge. The BIU decodes latched A[15:4] and qualifies
with AEN to determine if the KSZ8841M device is the intended target. The data transfer is the same as the first case.
Interfacing with the system/host relying on central decoding (KSZ8841-32MQL only).
The typical example for this application is for an embedded processor having a central decoder on the system board or
within the processor. Connecting the chip select (CS) from system/host to DATACSN bypasses the local device decoder.
When the DATACSN is asserted, it only allows access to the Data Register in 32 bits and BE3N, BE2N, BE1N, and BE0N
are ignored as shown in the Figure 15. No other registers can be accessed by asserting DATACSN. The data transfer is
the same as in the first case. Independent of the type of asynchronous interface used. To insert a wait state, the BIU will
assert ARDY to prolong the cycle.

Synchronous Interface
For synchronous transfers, the synchronous dedicated signals CYCLEN, SWR, and RDYRTNN will toggle but the
asynchronous dedicated signals RDN and WRN are de-asserted and stay at the same logic level throughout the entire
synchronous transfer.
The synchronous interface mainly supports two applications, one for VLBus-like and the other for EISA-like (DMA type C)
burst transfers. The VLBus-like interface supports only single-data transfer. The pin option VLBUSN determines if it is a
VLBus-like or EISA-like burst transfer – if VLBUSN = 0, the interface is for VLBus-like transfer; if VLBUSN = 1, the
interface is for EISA-like burst transfer.
For VLBus-like transfer interface (VLBUSN = 0):
This interface is used in an architecture in which the device’s local decoder is utilized; that is, the BIU decodes latched
A[15:4] and qualifies with AEN (Address Enable) to determine if the KSZ8841M device is the intended target. No burst is
supported in this application. The M/nIO signal connection in VLBus is routed to AEN. The CYCLEN in this application is
used to sample the SWR signal when it is asserted. Usually, CYCLEN is one clock delay of ADSN. There is a
handshaking process to end the cycle of VLBus-like transfers. When the KSZ8841M is ready to finish the cycle, it asserts
SRDYN. The system/host acknowledges SRDYN by asserting RDYRTNN after the system/host has latched the read
data. The KSZ8841M holds the read data until RDYRTNN is asserted. The timing waveform is shown in Figures 19 and
20.
For EISA-like burst transfer interface (VLBUSN = 1):
The SWR is connected to IORC# in EISA to indicate the burst read and CYCLEN is connected to IOWC# in EISA to
indicate the burst write. Note that in this application, both the system/host/memory and KSZ8841M are capable of
inserting wait states. For system/host/memory to insert a wait state, assert the RDYRTNN signal; for the KSZ8841M to
insert the wait state, assert the SRDYN signal. The timing waveform is shown in Figures 17 and 18.
BIU Summation
Figure 10 shows the mapping from ISA-like, EISA-like and VLBus-like transactions to the chip’s BIU.
Figure 11 shows the connection for different data bus sizes.
Note: For the 8-bit data bus mode, the internal inverter is enabled and connected between BE0N and BE1N, so an even
address will enable the BE0N and an odd address will enable the BE1N.

BIU Implementation Principles
Since KSZ8841M is an I/O device with 16 addressable locations, address decoding is based on the values of A15-A4 and
AEN. Whenever DATACSN is asserted, the address decoder is disabled and a 32-bit transfer to Data Register is
assumed (BE3N – BE0N are ignored).
If address latching is required, the address is latched on the rising edge of ADSN and is transparent when ADSN=0.
1. Byte, word, and double word data buses and accesses (transfers) are supported.
2. Internal byte swapping is not implemented and word swapping is supported internally. Refer to Figure 11 for the
appropriate 8-bit, 16-bit, and 32-bit data bus connection.
3. Since independent sets of synchronous and asynchronous signals are provided, synchronous and asynchronous
cycles can be mixed or interleaved as long as they are not active simultaneously.

4. The asynchronous interface uses RDN and WRN signal strobes for data latching. If necessary, ARDY is deasserted on the leading edge of the strobe.
5. The VLBUS-like synchronous interface uses BCLK, ADSN, and SWR and CYCLEN to control read and write
operations and generate SRDYN to insert the wait state, if necessary, when VLBUSN = 0. For read, the data must
be held until RDYRTNN is asserted.
The EISA-like burst transfer is supported using synchronous interface signals and DATACSN when I/O signal VLBUSN =
1. Both the system/host/memory and KSZ8841M are capable of inserting wait states. To set the system/host/memory to
insert a wait state, assert RDYRTNN signal. To set the KSZ8841M to insert a wait state, assert SRDYN signal.
Queue Management Unit (QMU)
The Queue Management Unit (QMU) manages packet traffic between the MAC/PHY interface and the system host. It has
built-in packet memory for receive and transmit functions called TXQ (Transmit Queue) and RXQ (Receive Queue). Each
queue contains 4KB of memory for back-to-back, non-blocking frame transfer performance. It provides a group of control
registers for system control, frame status registers for current packet transmit/receive status, and interrupts to inform the
host of the real time TX/RX status.
Transmit Queue (TXQ) Frame Format
The frame format for the transmit queue is shown in the following Table 3. The first word contains the control information
for the frame to transmit. The second word is used to specify the total number of bytes of the frame. The packet data
follows. The packet data area holds the frame itself. It may or may not include the CRC checksum depending upon
whether hardware CRC checksum generation is enabled.
Multiple frames can be pipelined in both the transmit queue and receive queue as long as there is enough queue memory,
thus avoiding overrun. For each transmitted frame, the transmit status information for the frame is located in the TXSR
register.

Since multiple packets can be pipelined into the TX packet memory for transmit, the transmit status reflects the status of
the packet that is currently being transferred on the MAC interface, which may or may not be the last queued packet in the
TX queue.
The transmit control word is the first 16-bit word in the TX packet memory, followed by a 16-bit byte count. It must be word
aligned. Each control word corresponds to one TX packet. Table 4 gives the transmit control word bit fields.

The data area contains six bytes of Destination Address (DA) followed by six bytes of Source Address (SA), followed by a
variable-length number of bytes. On transmit, all bytes are provided by the CPU, including the source address. The

EEPROM Interface
It is optional in the KSZ8841M to use an external EEPROM. In the case that an EEPROM is not used, the EEEN pin must
be tied Low or floating.
An external serial EEPROM with a standard microwire bus interface is used for non-volatile storage of information such as
the host MAC address, base address, and default configuration settings. The KSZ8841M can detect if the EEPROM is a
1KB (93C46) or 4KB (93C66) EEPROM device (the 93C46 and the 93C66 are typical EEPROM devices). The EEPROM
is organized as 16-bit mode.
If the EEEN pin is pulled high, then the KSZ8841M performs an automatic read of the external EEPROM words 0H to 6H
after the de-assertion of Reset. The EEPROM values are placed in certain host-accessible registers. EEPROM read/write
functions can also be performed by software read/writes to the EEPCR registers.

No Soft Reset
When this bit is set, indicates that KSZ8841M transitioning from D3_hot to D0 because
of PowerState commands do not perform an internal reset. Configuration Context is
preserved. Upon transition from the D3_hot to the D0 Initialized state, no additional
operating system intervention is required to preserve Configuration Context beyond
writing the PowerState bits.
When this bit is clear, KSZ8841M performs an internal reset upon transitioning from
D3_hot to D0 via software control of the PowerState bits. Configuration Context is lost
when performing the soft reset. Upon trasition from the D3_hot to the D0 state, full
reinitialization sequence is needed to return the device to D0 Initialized.
Regardless of this bit, devices that transition from D3_hot to D0 by a system or bus

preserved if PME is supported and enabled.

Loopback Support
The KSZ8841M provides Near-end (Remote) loopback support for remote diagnostic of failure. In loopback mode, the
speed at the PHY port will be set to 100BASE-TX full-duplex mode.
Near-end (Remote) Loopback
Near-end (Remote) loopback is conducted at PHY port 1of the KSZ8841M. The loopback path starts at the PHY port’s
receive inputs (RXP1/RXM1), wraps around at the same PHY port’s PMD/PMA, and ends at the PHY port’s transmit
outputs (TXP1/TXM1).
Bit [1] of register P1PHYCTRL is used to enable near-end loopback for port 1. Alternatively, Bit [9] of register P1SCSLMD
can also be used to enable near-end loopback. The ports 1 near-end loopback path is illustrated in the following Figure

CPU Interface I/O Registers
The KSZ8841M provides an EISA-like, ISA-like, or VLBUS-like bus interface for the CPU to access its internal I/O
registers. I/O registers serve as the address that the microprocessor uses when communicating with the device. This is
used for configuring operational settings, reading or writing control, status information, and transferring packets by reading
and writing through the packet data registers.
I/O Registers
Input/Output (I/O) registers are limited to 16 locations as required by most ISA bus-based systems; therefore, registers
are assigned to different banks. The last word of the I/O register locations (0xE - 0xF) is shared by all banks and can be
used to change the bank in use.
The following I/O Space Mapping Tables apply to 8, 16 or 32-bit bus products. Depending upon the bus interface used
and byte enable signals (BE[3:0]N control byte access), each I/O access can be performed as an 8-bit, 16-bit, or 32-bit
operation. (The KSZ8841M is not limited to 8/16-bit performance and 32-bit read/write are also supported).

Register Map: MAC and PHY
Do not write to bit values or to registers defined as Reserved. Manipulating reserved bits or registers causes
unpredictable and often fatal results. If the user wants to write to these reserved bits, the user has to read back these
reserved bits (RO or RW) first, then “OR” with the read value of the reserved bits and write back to these reserved bits.
Bit Type Definition
RO = Read only.
RW = Read/Write.
W1C = Write 1 to Clear (writing a one to this bit clears it).
Bank 0-63 Bank Select Register (0x0E): BSR (same location in all Banks)
The bank select register is used to select or to switch between different sets of register banks for I/O access.
There are a total of 64 banks available to select, including the built-in switch engine registers.

BSA Bank Select Address Bits
BSA bits select the I/O register bank in use.
This register is always accessible regardless of the register bank currently selected.
Notes:
The bank select register can be accessed as a doubleword (32-bit) at offset 0xC, as a word
(16-bit) at offset 0xE, or as a byte (8-bit) at offset 0xE.
A doubleword write to offset 0xC writes to the BANK Select Register but does not write to
registers 0xC and 0xD; it only writes to register 0xE.
Bank 0 Base Address Register (0x00): BAR
This register holds the base address for decoding a device access. Its value is loaded from the external EEPROM (0x0H)
upon a power-on reset if the EEPROM Enable (EEEN) pin is tied to High. Its value can also be modified after reset.
Writing to this register does not store the value into the EEPROM. When the EEEN pin is tied to Low, the default base
address is 0x300.

Bank 2 Host MAC Address Register Low (0x00): MARL
This register along with the other two Host MAC address registers are loaded starting at word location 0x1 of the
EEPROM upon hardware reset. The software driver can modify the register, but it will not modify the original Host MAC
address value in the EEPROM. These six bytes of Host MAC address in external EEPROM are loaded to these three
registers as mapping below:
MARL[15:0] = EEPROM 0x1(MAC Byte 2 and 1)
MARM[15:0] = EEPROM 0x2(MAC Byte 4 and 3)
MARH[15:0] = EEPROM 0x3(MAC Byte 6 and 5)
The Host MAC address is used to define the individual destination address that the KSZ8841M responds to when
receiving frames. Network addresses are generally expressed in the form of 01:23:45:67:89:AB, where the bytes are
received from left to right, and the bits within each byte are received from right to left (LSB to MSB). For example, the
actual transmitted and received bits are on the order of 10000000 11000100 10100010 11100110 10010001 11010101.
These three registers value for Host MAC address 01:23:45:67:89:AB will be held as below:
MARL[15:0] = 0x89AB
MARM[15:0] = 0x4567
MARH[15:0] = 0x0123

Bank 3 On-Chip Bus Control Register (0x00): OBCR
This register controls the on-chip bus speed for the KSZ8841M. It is used for power management when the external host
CPU is running at a slow frequency. The default of the on-chip bus speed is 125 MHz without EEPROM. When the
external host CPU is running at a higher clock rate, the on-chip bus should be adjusted for the best performance.

Note: When external EEPROM is enabled, the bit 1 in Configparm word (0x6H) is used to
contol this speed as below:
Bit 1 = 0 , this value will be 00 for 125 MHz.

Bank 3 EEPROM Control Register (0x02): EEPCR
To support an external EEPROM, tie the EEPROM Enable (EEEN) pin to High; otherwise, tie it to Low. If an external
EEPROM is not used, the default chip Base Address (0x300), and the software programs the host MAC address. If an
EEPROM is used in the design (EEPROM Enable pin to High), the chip Base Address and host MAC address are loaded
from the EEPROM immediately after reset. The KSZ8841M allows the software to access (read and write) the EEPROM
directly; that is, the EEPROM access timing can be fully controlled by the software if the EEPROM Software Access bit is
set.

memory is used for both frame payload, status word. There is total 4096 bytes in RXQ. This
counter will update after a complete packet is received and also issues an interrupt when
receive interrupt enable IER[13] in Bank 18 is set.
Note: Software must be written to empty the RXQ memory to allow for the new RX frame. If
this is not done, the frame may be discarded as a result of insufficient RXQ memory.
Bank 17 TXQ Command Register (0x00): TXQCR

No Soft Reset
If this bit is set (“1”), the KSZ8841M does not perform an internal reset when transitioning from
D3_hot to D0 because of PowerState commands. Configuration context is preserved. Upon
transition from D3_hot to the D0 Initialized state, no additional operating system intervention is
required to preserve configuration context beyond writing the PowerState bits.
If this bit is cleared (“0”), the KSZ8841M does perform an internal reset when transitioning
from D3_hot to D0 via software control of the PowerState bits. Configuration context is lost
when performing the soft reset. Upon transition from D3_hot to the D0 state, full reinitialization
sequence is needed to return the device to D0 Initialized.
Regardless of this bit, devices that transition from D3_hot to D0 by a system or bus segment
reset will return to the device state D0 Uninitialized with only PME context preserved if PME is
supported and enabled.
The value of this bit is loaded from the NO_SRST bit in the serial EEPROM.

Table 12. Port 1 MIB Counters Indirect Memory Offsets
Example:
1. MIB Counter Read (read port 1 “Rx64Octets” counter at indirect address offset 0x0E)
Write to reg. IACR with 0x1C0E (set indirect address and trigger a read MIB counters operation)
Then
Read reg. IADR5 (MIB counter value 31-16) // If bit 31 = 1, there was a counter overflow
// If bit 30 = 0, restart (re-read) from this register
Read reg. IADR4 (MIB counter value 15-0)
Additional MIB Information
In the heaviest condition, the byte counter will overflow in 2 minutes. It is recommended that the software read all
the counters at least every 30 seconds.
MIB counters are designed as “read clear”. That is, these counters will be cleared after they are read.

Notes:
1. When CPU finished current Read or Write operation, it can do next Read or Write operation even the ARDY is low. During Read
or Write operation if the ADRY is low, the CPU has to keep the RDN/WRN low until the ARDY returns to high.
2. In order to speed up the ARDY low time to 40 ns, user has to use the turbo software driver which is only supported in the A6
device. Please refer to the “KSZ88xx Programmer's Guide” for detail.

Acronyms and Glossary
BIU
Bus Interface Unit
The host interface function that performs code conversion, buffering,
and the like required for communications to and from a network.
BPDU
Bridge Protocol Data Unit
A packet containing ports, addresses, etc. to make sure data being
passed through a bridged network arrives at its proper destination.
CMOS
Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor
A common semiconductor manufacturing technique in which positive
and negative types of transistors are combined to form a current gate
that in turn forms an effective means of controlling electrical current
through a chip.
CRC
Cyclic Redundancy Check
A common technique for detecting data transmission errors. CRC for
Ethernet is 32 bits long.
Cut-through switch
A switch typically processes received packets by reading in the full
packet (storing), then processing the packet to determine where it
needs to go, then forwarding it. A cut-through switch simply reads in
the first bit of an incoming packet and forwards the packet. Cutthrough switches do not store the packet.
DA
Destination Address
The address to send packets.
DMA
Direct Memory Access
A design in which memory on a chip is controlled independently of
the CPU.
EEPROM Electronically Erasable Programmable Read-only Memory
A design in which memory on a chip can be erased by exposing it to
an electrical charge.
EISA
Extended Industry Standard Architecture
A bus architecture designed for PCs using 80x86 processors, or an
Intel 80386, 80486 or Pentium microprocessor. EISA buses are 32
bits wide and support multiprocessing.
EMI
Electro-Magnetic Interference
A naturally occurring phenomena when the electromagnetic field of
one device disrupts, impedes or degrades the electromagnetic field of
another device by coming into proximity with it. In computer
technology, computer devices are susceptible to EMI because
electromagnetic fields are a byproduct of passing electricity through a
wire. Data lines that have not been properly shielded are susceptible
to data corruption by EMI.
FCS
Frame Check Sequence
See CRC.
FID
Frame or Filter ID
Specifies the frame identifier. Alternately is the filter identifier.
IGMP
Internet Group Management Protocol
The protocol defined by RFC 1112 for IP multicast transmissions.
IPG
Inter-Packet Gap
A time delay between successive data packets mandated by the
network standard for protocol reasons. In Ethernet, the medium has
to be "silent" (i.e., no data transfer) for a short period of time before a
node can consider the network idle and start to transmit. IPG is used
to correct timing differences between a transmitter and receiver.
During the IPG, no data is transferred, and information in the gap can
be discarded or additions inserted without impact on data integrity.
ISI
Inter-Symbol Interference
The disruption of transmitted code caused by adjacent pulses
affecting or interfering with each other.
ISA
Industry Standard Architecture
A bus architecture used in the IBM PC/XT and PC/AT.
Jumbo Packet
MDI
Medium Dependent Interface
October 2007
A packet larger than the standard Ethernet packet (1500 bytes).
Large packet sizes allow for more efficient use of bandwidth, lower
overhead, less processing, etc.
An Ethernet port connection that allows network hubs or switches to
connect to other hubs or switches without a null-modem, or
crossover, cable. MDI provides the standard interface to a particular
media (copper or fiber) and is therefore 'media dependent.'
104
M9999-102207-1.6
Micrel, Inc.
KSZ8841-16/32 MQL/MVL/MBL
MDI-X
Medium Dependent Interface Crossover
An Ethernet port connection that allows networked end stations (i.e.,
PCs or workstations) to connect to each other using a null-modem, or
crossover, cable. For 10/100 full-duplex networks, an end point (such
as a computer) and a switch are wired so that each transmitter
connects to the far end receiver. When connecting two computers
together, a cable that crosses the TX and RX is required to do this.
With auto MDI-X, the PHY senses the correct TX and RX roles,
eliminating any cable confusion.
MIB
Management Information Base
The MIB comprises the management portion of network devices. This
can include things like monitoring traffic levels and faults (statistical),
and can also change operating parameters in network nodes (static
forwarding addresses).
MII
Media Independent Interface
The MII accesses PHY registers as defined in the IEEE 802.3
specification.
NIC
Network Interface Card
An expansion board inserted into a computer to allow it to be
connected to a network. Most NICs are designed for a particular type
of network, protocol, and media, although some can serve multiple
networks.
NPVID
Non Port VLAN ID
The Port VLAN ID value is used as a VLAN reference.
PLL
Phase-Locked Loop
An electronic circuit that controls an oscillator so that it maintains a
constant phase angle (i.e., lock) on the frequency of an input, or
reference, signal. A PLL ensures that a communication signal is
locked on a specific frequency and can also be used to generate,
modulate, and demodulate a signal and divide a frequency.
PME
Power Management Event
An occurrence that affects the directing of power to different
components of a system.
QMU
Queue Management Unit
Manages packet traffic between MAC/PHY interface and the system
host. The QMU has built-in packet memories for receive and transmit
functions called TXQ (Transmit Queue) and RXQ (Receive Queue).
SA
Source Address
The address from which information has been sent.
TDR
Time Domain Reflectometry
TDR is used to pinpoint flaws and problems in underground and aerial
wire, cabling, and fiber optics. They send a signal down the conductor
and measure the time it takes for the signal -- or part of the signal -- to
return.
UTP
Unshielded Twisted Pair
Commonly a cable containing 4 twisted pairs of wires. The wires are
twisted in such a manner as to cancel electrical interference
generated in each wire, therefore shielding is not required.
VLAN
Virtual Local Area Network
A configuration of computers that acts as if all computers are
connected by the same physical network but which may be located
virtually anywhere.
