Description
CLK50
IN
RMII RX/TX reference clock (50 MHz)
nRMII_LINK
IN
Input signal provided by the PHY if a 100 Mbit/s (Full
Duplex) link is established (alias LINK_MII)
RMII_RX_DV
IN
Carrier sense/receive data valid
RMII_RX_DATA[1:0]
IN
Receive data (alias RXD)
RMII_RX_ERR
IN
Receive error (alias RX_ER)
RMII_TX_ENA
OUT
Transmit enable (alias TX_EN)
RMII_TX_DATA[1:0]
OUT
Transmit data (alias TXD)
NPHY_RESET_OUT
OUT
PHY reset (akt. Low), resets PHY while ESC is in
Reset state, and, for FX PHYs, if Enhanced Link
Detection detects a lost link
NOTE: A pull-down resistor is typically required for NPHY_RESET_OUT to hold the PHY in reset state while the
FPGA is configured, since this pin is floating or even pulled up during that time.

Refer to chapter 8.5 for more information on special markings (!). Take care of proper PHY address
configuration.
