Pin strap-ins are latched during power-up or reset. In some systems, the MAC receive input pins may drive high during
power-up or reset, and consequently cause the PHY strap-in pins on the MII/RMII signals to be latched high. In this case,
it is recommended to add 1K pull-downs on these PHY strap-in pins to ensure the PHY does not strap-in to ISOLATE or
PCS Loopback mode, or is not configured with an incorrect PHY Address.

KSZ8041NL
Functional Description
The KSZ8041NL is a single 3.3V supply Fast Ethernet transceiver. It is fully compliant with the IEEE 802.3u Specification.
On the media side, the KSZ8041NL supports 10Base-T and 100Base-TX with HP auto MDI/MDI-X for reliable detection of
and correction for straight-through and crossover cables.
The KSZ8041NL offers a choice of MII or RMII data interface connection with the MAC processor. The MII management
bus option gives the MAC processor complete access to the KSZ8041NL control and status registers. Additionally, an
interrupt pin eliminates the need for the processor to poll for PHY status change.
Physical signal transmission and reception are enhanced through the use of patented analog circuitries that make the
design more efficient and allow for lower power consumption and smaller chip die size.
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.
The output current is set by an external 6.49kΩ 1% resistor for the 1:1 transformer ratio. It has typical rise/fall times of 4
ns and complies with the ANSI TP-PMD standard regarding amplitude balance, overshoot and timing jitter. The waveshaped 10Base-T output drivers are also incorporated into the 100Base-TX drivers.
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 must 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 the MII format and provided as the input data to the MAC.
PLL Clock Synthesizer
The KSZ8041NL generates 125MΗz, 25MΗz and 20MΗz clocks for system timing. Internal clocks are generated from an
external 25MHz crystal or oscillator. In RMII mode, these internal clocks are generated from an external 50MHz oscillator
or system clock.
Scrambler/De-scrambler (100Base-TX only)
The purpose of the scrambler is to spread the power spectrum of the signal in order to reduce EMI and baseline wander.
10Base-T Transmit
The 10Base-T drivers are incorporated with the 100Base-TX drivers to allow for transmission using the same magnetic.
The drivers also perform internal wave-shaping and pre-emphasize, and output 10Base-T signals with a typical amplitude
of 2.5V peak. The 10Base-T signals have harmonic contents that 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 buffer and level detecting squelch circuits are employed. A differential input receiver circuit and
a PLL performs 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 400 mV or with short pulse widths to prevent noise at the RX+ and
October 2006
13
M9999-102406-1.0
Micrel, Inc.
KSZ8041NL
RX- inputs from falsely trigger the decoder. When the input exceeds the squelch limit, the PLL locks onto the incoming
signal and the KSZ8041NL decodes a data frame. The receive clock is kept active during idle periods in between data
reception.
SQE and Jabber Function (10Base-T only)
In 10Base-T operation, a short pulse is put out on the COL pin after each frame is transmitted. This SQE Test is required
as a test of the 10Base-T transmit/receive path. If transmit enable (TXEN) is high for more than 20 ms (jabbering), the
10Base-T transmitter is disabled and COL is asserted high. If TXEN is then driven low for more than 250 ms, the 10BaseT transmitter is re-enabled and COL is de-asserted (returns to low).
Auto-Negotiation
The KSZ8041NL conforms to the auto-negotiation protocol, defined in Clause 28 of the IEEE 802.3u specification. Autonegotiation is enabled by either hardware pin strapping (pin 30) or software (register 0h bit 12).
Auto-negotiation allows unshielded twisted pair (UTP) link partners to select the highest common mode of operation. Link
partners advertise their capabilities to each other, and then compare their own capabilities with those they received from
their link partners. The highest speed and duplex setting that is common to the two link partners is selected as the mode
of operation.
The following list shows the speed and duplex operation mode from highest to lowest.
•
Priority 1: 100Base-TX, full-duplex
•
Priority 2: 100Base-TX, half-duplex
•
Priority 3: 10Base-T, full-duplex
• Priority 4: 10Base-T, half-duplex
If auto-negotiation is not supported or the KSZ8041NL link partner is forced to bypass auto-negotiation, the KSZ8041NL
sets its operating mode by observing the signal at its receiver. This is known as parallel detection, and allows the
KSZ8041NL to establish link by listening for a fixed signal protocol in the absence of auto-negotiation advertisement
protocol.
The auto-negotiation link up process is shown in the following flow chart.

MII Management (MIIM) Interface
The KSZ8041NL supports the IEEE 802.3 MII Management Interface, also known as the Management Data Input / Output
(MDIO) Interface. This interface allows upper-layer devices to monitor and control the state of the KSZ8041NL. An
external device with MIIM capability is used to read the PHY status and/or configure the PHY settings. Additional details
on the MIIM interface can be found in Clause 22.2.4.5 of the IEEE 802.3u Specification.
The MIIM interface consists of the following:
•
A physical connection that incorporates the clock line (MDC) and the data line (MDIO).
•
A specific protocol that operates across the aforementioned physical connection that allows an external controller
to communicate with one or more KSZ8041NL devices. Each KSZ8041NL device is assigned a PHY address
between 1 and 7 by the PHYAD[2:0] strapping pins.
•
An internal addressable set of thirteen 16-bit MDIO registers. Register [0:6] are required, and their functions are
defined by the IEEE 802.3u Specification. The additional registers are provided for expanded functionality.
The KSZ8041NL supports MIIM in both MII mode and RMII mode.

Interrupt (INTRP)
INTRP (pin 21) is an optional interrupt signal that is used to inform the external controller that there has been a status
update in the KSZ8041NL PHY register. Bits[15:8] of register 1Bh are the interrupt control bits, and are used to enable
and disable the conditions for asserting the INTRP signal. Bits[7:0] of register 1Bh are the interrupt status bits, and are
used to indicate which interrupt conditions have occurred. The interrupt status bits are cleared after reading register 1Bh.
Bit 9 of register 1Fh sets the interrupt level to active high or active low.
MII Data Interface
The Media Independent Interface (MII) is specified in Clause 22 of the IEEE 802.3u Specification. It provides a common
interface between physical layer and MAC layer devices, and has the following key characteristics:
•
Supports 10Mbps and 100Mbps data rates.
•
Uses a 25MHz reference clock, sourced by the PHY.
•
Provides independent 4-bit wide (nibble) transmit and receive data paths.
•
Contains two distinct groups of signals: one for transmission and the other for reception.
By default, the KSZ8041NL is configured in MII mode after it is power-up or reset with the following:
•
A 25MHz crystal connected to XI, XO (pins 9, 8), or an external 25MHz clock source (oscillator) connected to XI.
•
CONFIG[2:0] (pins 18, 29, 28) set to ‘000’ (default setting).

Table 2. MII Signal Definition
Transmit Clock (TXC)
TXC is sourced by the PHY. It is a continuous clock that provides the timing reference for TXEN and TXD[3:0].
TXC is 2.5MHz for 10Mbps operation and 25MHz for 100Mbps operation.
Transmit Enable (TXEN)
TXEN indicates the MAC is presenting nibbles on TXD[3:0] for transmission. It is asserted synchronously with the first
nibble of the preamble and remains asserted while all nibbles to be transmitted are presented on the MII, and is negated
prior to the first TXC following the final nibble of a frame.
TXEN transitions synchronously with respect to TXC.
Transmit Data [3:0] (TXD[3:0])
TXD[3:0] transitions synchronously with respect to TXC. When TXEN is asserted, TXD[3:0] are accepted for transmission
by the PHY. TXD[3:0] is ”00” to indicate idle when TXEN is de-asserted. Values other than “00” on TXD[3:0] while TXEN
is de-asserted are ignored by the PHY.
Receive Clock (RXC)
RXC provides the timing reference for RXDV, RXD[3:0], and RXER.
•
In 10Mbps mode, RXC is recovered from the line while carrier is active. RXC is derived from the PHY’s reference
clock when the line is idle, or link is down.
•
In 100Mbps mode, RXC is continuously recovered from the line. If link is down, RXC is derived from the PHY’s
reference clock.
RXC is 2.5MHz for 10Mbps operation and 25MHz for 100Mbps operation.

M9999-102406-1.0
Micrel, Inc.
KSZ8041NL
Receive Data Valid (RXDV)
RXDV is driven by the PHY to indicate that the PHY is presenting recovered and decoded nibbles on RXD[3:0].
•
In 10Mbps mode, RXDV is asserted with the first nibble of the SFD (Start of Frame Delimiter), “5D”, and remains
asserted until the end of the frame.
• In 100Mbps mode, RXDV is asserted from the first nibble of the preamble to the last nibble of the frame.
RXDV transitions synchronously with respect to RXC.
Receive Data [3:0] (RXD[3:0])
RXD[3:0] transitions synchronously with respect to RXC. For each clock period in which RXDV is asserted, RXD[3:0]
transfers a nibble of recovered data from the PHY.
Receive Error (RXER)
RXER is asserted for one or more RXC periods to indicate that an error (e.g. a coding error or any error that a PHY is
capable of detecting, and that may otherwise be undetectable by the MAC sub-layer) was detected somewhere in the
frame presently being transferred from the PHY.
RXER transitions synchronously with respect to RXC. While RXDV is de-asserted, RXER has no effect on the MAC.
Carrier Sense (CRS)
CRS is asserted and de-asserted as follows:
•
In 10Mbps mode, CRS assertion is based on the reception of valid preambles. CRS de-assertion is based on the
reception of an end-of-frame (EOF) marker.
•
In 100Mbps mode, CRS is asserted when a start-of-stream delimiter, or /J/K symbol pair is detected. CRS is deasserted when an end-of-stream delimiter, or /T/R symbol pair is detected. Additionally, the PMA layer de-asserts
CRS if IDLE symbols are received without /T/R.
Collision (COL)
COL is asserted in half-duplex mode whenever the transmitter and receiver are simultaneously active on the line. This is
used to inform the MAC that a collision has occurred during its transmission to the PHY.
COL transitions asynchronously with respect to TXC and RXC.
Reduced MII (RMII) Data Interface
The Reduced Media Independent Interface (RMII) specifies a low pin count Media Independent Interface (MII). It provides
a common interface between physical layer and MAC layer devices, and has the following key characteristics:
•
Supports 10Mbps and 100Mbps data rates.
•
Uses a single 50MHz reference clock provided by the MAC or the system board.
•
Provides independent 2-bit wide (di-bit) transmit and receive data paths.
•
Contains two distinct groups of signals: one for transmission and the other for reception.
The KSZ8041NL is configured in RMII mode after it is power-up or reset with the following:
•
A 50MHz reference clock connected to REFCLK (pin 9).
•
CONFIG[2:0] (pins 18, 29, 28) set to ‘001’.
In RMII mode, unused MII signals, TXD[3:2] (pins 27, 26), are tied to ground.

Table 3. RMII Signal Description
Reference Clock (REF_CLK)
REF_CLK is sourced by the MAC or system board. It is a continuous 50MHz clock that provides the timing reference for
TX_EN, TXD[1:0], CRS_DV, RXD[1:0], and RX_ER.
Transmit Enable (TX_EN)
TX_EN indicates that the MAC is presenting di-bits on TXD[1:0] for transmission. It is asserted synchronously with the first
nibble of the preamble and remains asserted while all di-bits to be transmitted are presented on the RMII, and is negated
prior to the first REF_CLK following the final di-bit of a frame.
TX_EN transitions synchronously with respect to REF_CLK.
Transmit Data [1:0] (TXD[1:0])
TXD[1:0] transitions synchronously with respect to REF_CLK. When TX_EN is asserted, TXD[1:0] are accepted for
transmission by the PHY. TXD[1:0] is ”00” to indicate idle when TX_EN is de-asserted. Values other than “00” on TXD[1:0]
while TX_EN is de-asserted are ignored by the PHY.
Carrier Sense/Receive Data Valid (CRS_DV)
CRS_DV is asserted by the PHY when the receive medium is non-idle. It is asserted asynchronously on detection of
carrier. This is when squelch is passed in 10Mbps mode, and when 2 non-contiguous zeroes in 10 bits are detected in
100Mbps mode. Loss of carrier results in the de-assertion of CRS_DV.
So long as carrier detection criteria are met, CRS_DV remains asserted continuously from the first recovered di-bit of the
frame through the final recovered di-bit, and it is negated prior to the first REF_CLK that follows the final di-bit. The data
on RXD[1:0] is considered valid once CRS_DV is asserted. However, since the assertion of CRS_DV is asynchronous
relative to REF_CLK, the data on RXD[1:0] is "00" until proper receive signal decoding takes place.
Receive Data [1:0] (RXD[1:0])
RXD[1:0] transitions synchronously to REF_CLK. For each clock period in which CRS_DV is asserted, RXD[1:0] transfers
two bits of recovered data from the PHY. RXD[1:0] is "00" to indicate idle when CRS_DV is de-asserted. Values other
than “00” on RXD[1:0] while CRS_DV is de-asserted are ignored by the MAC.
Receive Error (RX_ER)
RX_ER is asserted for one or more REF_CLK periods to indicate that an error (e.g. a coding error or any error that a PHY
is capable of detecting, and that may otherwise be undetectable by the MAC sub-layer) was detected somewhere in the
frame presently being transferred from the PHY.
RX_ER transitions synchronously with respect to REF_CLK. While CRS_DV is de-asserted, RX_ER has no effect on the
MAC.

Collision Detection
The MAC regenerates the COL signal of the MII from TX_EN and CRS_DV.
HP Auto MDI/MDI-X
HP Auto MDI/MDI-X configuration eliminates the confusion of whether to use a straight cable or a crossover cable
between the KSZ8041NL and its link partner. This feature allows the KSZ8041NL to use either type of cable to connect
with a link partner that is in either MDI or MDI-X mode. The auto-sense function detects transmit and receive pairs from
the link partner, and then assigns transmit and receive pairs of the KSZ8041NL accordingly.
HP Auto MDI/MDI-X is enabled by default. It is disabled by writing a one to register 1F bit 13. MDI and MDI-X mode is
selected by register 1F bit 14 if HP Auto MDI/MDI-X is disabled.
An isolation transformer with symmetrical transmit and receive data paths is recommended to support auto MDI/MDI-X.
The IEEE 802.3u Standard defines MDI and MDI-X as follow:

Power Management
The KSZ8041NL offers the following power management modes:
Power Saving Mode
This mode is used to reduce power consumption when the cable is unplugged. It is in effect when auto-negotiation mode
is enabled, cable is disconnected, and register 1F bit 10 is set to 1 (default setting). Under power saving mode, the
KSZ8041NL shuts down all transceiver blocks, except for energy detect and PLL circuits. Additionally, in MII mode, the
RXC clock output is disabled. RXC clock is enabled after the cable is connected and link is established.
Power saving mode is disabled by writing a zero to register 1F bit 10.
Power Down Mode
This mode is used to power down the entire KSZ8041NL device when it is not in use. Power down mode is enabled by
writing a one to register 0 bit 11. In the power down state, the KSZ8041NL disables all internal functions, except for the
MII management interface.
Reference Clock Connection Options
A crystal or clock source, such as an oscillator, is used to provide the reference clock for the KSZ8041NL. The reference
clock is 25MHz for MII mode and 50MHz for RMII mode. The following two figures illustrate how to connect the reference
clock to XI / REFCLK (pin 9) and XO (pin 8) of the KSZ8041NL.

The following reset circuit is recommended for powering up the KSZ8041NL if reset is triggered by the power supply.
Figure 17. Recommended Reset Circuit
The following reset circuit is recommended for applications where reset is driven by another device (e.g., CPU or FPGA).
At power-on-reset, R, C and D1 provide the necessary ramp rise time to reset the KSZ8041NL device. The RST_OUT_n
from CPU/FPGA provides the warm reset after power up.
