4.2 Issue 2 - MDIO Ethernet PHY Communications

Applicable EVM Revisions: E2

Issue Description: On some EVM, U78 MDIO MUX path has been shown to result in intermittent MDIO PHY communication between the AM64x SoC and CPSW and ICSSG Ethernet PHY.

Workaround: Modifications number 4 and 5 are applied to the assembly. These modifications result in the HSE header losing access to the HSE_PRG0_PRU1_GPO18 and HSE_PRG0_PRU1_GPO19 signals.

Modification 4 description:

  • R370, 2.2kΩ resistor installed

Modification 5 description:

  • All components located on the bottom of the PCB assembly layer
  • Remove U78
  • Short U78.2 to U78.4
  • Short U78.8 to U78.6
