General Description
The KSZ9021GN is a completely integrated triple speed (10Base-T/100Base-TX/1000Base-T) Ethernet Physical Layer Transceiver for transmission and reception of data on standard CAT-5 unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable.
FEATUREs
• Single-chip 10/100/1000Mbps IEEE 802.3 compliant Ethernet Transceiver
• GMII/MII standard compliant interface
• 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 swaps, pair skew and pair polarity
• MDC/MDIO Management Interface for PHY register configuration
• Interrupt pin option
• Power down and power saving modes
• Operating Voltages
Core: 1.2V (external FET or regulator)
