Detailed Design Procedure

When creating a new system design with an Ethernet PHY, follow this schematic capture procedure:

  1. Use the 'Strap Tool' tab from the Schematic Checklist to select the correct external bootstrap resistors.
  2. Select desired PHY hardware configurations described in Section 7.5.1.
  3. Go through and use the 'Pinwise Checklist' tab Schematic Checklist as a guide for your schematic design.
  4. Use DP83TC812, DP83TC813, and DP83TC814: Configuring for Open Alliance Specification Complianceas a guide for selecting components for the MDI circuit connected to the TRD_M and TRD_P pins.

The following layout procedure must be followed:

  1. Locate the PHY near the edge of the board so that short MDI traces can be routed to the desired connector.
  2. Place the MDI external components: CMC, DC-blocking capacitors, CM termination, MDI-coupling capacitor, and ESD shunt.
  3. Create metal pour keepout under the CMC on the top layer and at least one layer beneath the top later.
  4. The MDI TRD_M and TRD_P traces are routed with 100Ω differential.
  5. Place the clock source near the XI and XO pins.
  6. In MII, RMII, or RGMII mode, the xMII pins are routed 50Ω and are single-ended with reference to ground.
  7. The transmit path xMII pins are routed such that setup and hold timing does not violate the PHY requirements.
  8. The receive path xMII pins are routed such that setup and hold timing does not violate the MAC requirements.
  9. In SGMII mode, the xMII RX_P, RX_M, TX_P, and TX_M pins are routed 100Ω differential.
  10. Place the MDIO pullup close to the PHY.
  11. Go through 'Layout Checklist' tab from the Schematic Checklist to guide your design.
