Micrel, Inc.
The KSZ8863RLL filters error frames, and thus does not implement the RX_ER output signal. To detect error frames from
RMII PHY devices, the SMTXER3 input signal of the KSZ8863RLL is connected to the RXER output signal of the RMII
PHY device.
Collision detection is implemented in accordance with the RMII Specification.
In RMII mode, tie MII signals, SMTXD3[3:2] and SMTXER3, to ground if they are not used.
The KSZ8863RLL RMII can interface with RMII PHY and RMII MAC devices. The latter allows two KSZ8863RLL devices
to be connected back-to-back. The following table shows the KSZ8863RLL RMII pin connections with an external RMII
PHY and an external RMII MAC, such as another KSZ8863RLL device.
