Figure 4.6 LAN8720 Sources REF_CLK from External 25MHz Source

The RMII REF_CLK is a continuous clock that provides the timing reference for CRS_DV, RXD[1:0], TXEN, TXD[1:0] and RXER. The LAN8720 uses REF_CLK as the network clock such that no buffering is required on the transmit data path. However, on the receive data path, the receiver recovers the clock from the incoming data stream, and the LAN8720 uses elasticity buffering to accommodate for differences between the recovered clock and the local REF_CLK.

4.8Auto-negotiation

The purpose of the Auto-negotiation function is to automatically configure the transceiver to the optimum link parameters based on the capabilities of its link partner. Auto-negotiation is a mechanism for exchanging configuration information between two link-partners and automatically selecting the highest performance mode of operation supported by both sides. Auto-negotiation is fully defined in clause 28 of the IEEE 802.3 specification.

Once auto-negotiation has completed, information about the resolved link can be passed back to the controller via the Serial Management Interface (SMI). The results of the negotiation process are reflected in the Speed Indication bits in register 31, as well as the Link Partner Ability Register (Register 5).

The auto-negotiation protocol is a purely physical layer activity and proceeds independently of the MAC controller.

The advertised capabilities of the transceiver are stored in register 4 of the SMI registers. The default advertised by the transceiver is determined by user-defined on-chip signal options.

The following blocks are activated during an Auto-negotiation session:
