Preface RECOMMENDED READING This user's guide describes how to use KSZ8061MNX Evaluation Board. Other useful documents are listed below. The following Microchip documents are available and recommended as supplemental reference resources: • KSZ8061MNX/KSZ8061MNG Data Sheet This data sheet provides detailed information regarding the KSZ8061MNX device.
The KSZ8061MNX Evaluation Board is designed to enable functional and performance testing of the KSZ8061MNX PHY. In addition to the KSZ8061 PHY, there is a second PHY–a KSZ8081. The KSZ8081 is a standard 10/100 Ethernet PHY. It is used here to provide a second line interface for simple full-duplex traffic through the KSZ8061.
3. MII Connector The MII edge connector (J5) allows the KSZ8061MNX Evaluation Board to be connected to the MAC port of a Microchip switch evaluation board, or to any other device with an Ethernet MAC interface. Full duplex traffic can pass between the MII connector and the KSZ8061 line interface (J1, J2 or J3).

KSZ8061MNX Evaluation Board User’s Guide CONFIGURATION INSTRUCTIONS These instructions detail how to change between configurations. Figure 2-4 Figure 2-5 show the location of the components referenced in the instructions. 1. Two-PHY MII Back-to-Back Configuration. This is the default configuration, so these steps are only necessary if switching the board back from another configuration.

KSZ8061MNX Evaluation Board User’s Guide POWER The evaluation board requires a DC supply at barrel connector J8. A jumper must be installed on pins 2-3 of JP3. The voltage requirement is 4.5V to 14V. The current requirement is 200 mA.
3. J3: Sumitomo TS series 16-pin, part number 6098-6793 (Mating receptacle is 6098-4008) Table 2-1 lists the signal connections for each connector. Also refer to the schematic or PCB layout file since connector pin numbering may not be standardized. 2016 Microchip Technology Inc. DS50002449A-page 19...
KSZ8061MNX Evaluation Board User’s Guide TABLE 2-1: KSZ8061 CONNECTOR PIN ASSIGNMENTS Connector Pin Assignment KSZ8061 Signal Sumitomo RJ-45 TE 1379165-1 6098-6793 MII CONNECTOR The MII edge connector J5 provides external access to the KSZ8061 MII bus and the MII management interface (MDIO/MDC). This connector is typically used to connect the KSZ8061 PHY to the MAC interface on a Microchip Ethernet switch evaluation board.
The board has three push buttons, which are all used for reset purposes: • S1: Chip reset for KSZ8061 (U1) • S2: Chip reset for KSZ8081 (U2) • S3: KSZ8061 RXER latch reset (U7, D4) 2016 Microchip Technology Inc. DS50002449A-page 21...
Resistors R36-R44 are used to select optional strapping configurations to the KSZ8061MNX. When a resistor is not installed, the internal resistor for each pin pulls it to its default level during reset. Installing a resistor pulls the pin to the opposite logic level.
ETHUTIL.EXE UTILITY - OPENING SCREEN AND ADDRESS COMMAND If the KSZ8081 is removed, disabled or if power is disconnected, then the utility will automatically configure itself for the KSZ8061 instead of the KSZ8081. This is shown Figure 2-11. 2016 Microchip Technology Inc. DS50002449A-page 23...
