Connecting the MPC885 to Ethernet
The basic interface to the external EEST chip consists of the following ethernet signals:
•
Receive clock (RCLK)—a CLKx signal routed through the bank of clocks on the MPC885
•
Transmit clock (TCLK)—a CLKx signal routed through the bank of clocks on the MPC885. Note
that RCLK and TCLK should not be connected to the same CLKx since the EEST provides
separate transmit and receive clock signals.
•
Transmit data (TXD)—the MPC885 TXD signal
•
Receive data (RXD)—the MPC885 RXD signal
The following signals take on different functionality when the SCC is in ethernet mode:
•
Transmit enable (TENA)—RTS becomes TENA. The polarity of TENA is active high, whereas the
polarity of RTS is active low.
•
Receive enable (RENA)—CD becomes RENA
•
Collision (CLSN)—CTS becomes CLSN. The carrier sense signal is referenced in ethernet
descriptions because it indicates when the LAN is in use. Carrier sense is defined as the logical OR
of RENA and CLSN.
Figure 27-3
shows the basic components and signals required to make an ethernet connection between the
MPC885 and EEST.
Figure 27-3. Connecting the MPC885 to Ethernet
The EEST has similar names for its connection to the above seven MPC885 signals. The EEST also
provides a loop-back input so the MPC885 can perform external loop-back testing, which can be
controlled by any available MPC885 parallel I/O signal. The passive components needed to connect to
