Figure 31-4: RGMII Data Bit Transfer
PHY Interface Selection
The EMAC1 supports only 10/100 Mbps data-transfer rates with external PHY interfaced through RMII. The
EMAC0 supports both 10/100 Mbps data-transfer rates with external PHY interfaced through RMII and
10/100/1000 Mbps data-transfer rates with external PHY interfaced through RGMII.
Select the external PHY interface for EMAC0 using the
PADS_PCFG0.EMACPHYISEL
PADS_PCFG0.EMACRESET
RGMII Board Design Recommendations
Use the following guidelines during when performing board design when using the RGMII interface.
MAC to PHY (Transmit)
The Ethernet MAC transmits data to the Ethernet PHY. The Ethernet MAC sends data with tskewT (the timing of
TXC at the MAC) that meets the RGMII specification (tskewT = –500 ps to +500 ps skew window for transmitter
to drive data). The RGMII specification requires that at the PHY end, tskewR is sampled at 1.0 to 2.6 ns. According
to the RGMII standard, clocks must be routed such that an additional trace delay of greater than 1.5 ns and less
than 2 ns is added to the associated clock signal.

0 = RMII Interface
1 = RGMII Interface
0 = reset is asserted
1 = reset is deasserted
To select PHY interface, set PADS_PCFG0.EMACPHYISEL bit as
required and then set PADS_PCFG0.EMACRESET.
