Clock
TX_ER
O
1
Transmit Error
Asserted by the MAC layer to generate a coding error on the byte currently
transferred over TXD[0–3].
TX_CLK
TX_EN
O
1
Transmit Enable
Asserted by the MAC sublayer when the first transmit preamble byte is
driven over the MII. It remains asserted for the remainder of the frame, up to
the last CRC byte.
TX_CLK
TXD[0–3]
O
4
Transmit Data
TX_CLK
TX_CLK
O
1
Transmit Clock
A 25 MHz clock that provides the timing reference for the transfer of the
TX_EN, TX_ER, and TXD signals.

1
Collision
Asserted when a collision is detected.
TX_CLK
CRS
I
1
CRS
Asserted when the transmit or receive medium is not idle.

MDIO
I/O
1
Management Data Input/Output
Transfers control signals between the PHY layer and the manger entity.
MDC
MDC
I
1
Management Data Clock
The MDIO signal clock reference (25 MHz clock).

RX_ER
I
1
Receive Error
Asserted by the PHY layer to indicate an error the MAC can not detect. If
asserted during frame reception, indicates a coding error on the frame
currently being transferred on RXD[0:3].
RX_CLK
RX_DV
I
1
Receive Data Valid
Asserted by the PHY layer when the first received preamble byte is driving
over the MII. It remains asserted for the remainder of the frame, up to the
last CRC byte
RX_CLK
RXD[0–3]
I
4
Receive Data
RX_CLK
RX_CLK
I
1
Receive Clock
Synchronizes all receive signals (RX_DV, RXD, RX_ER).
