Note:
1.The symbols used for timing specifications herein follow the pattern of t
(first two letters of functional block)(signal)(state)
(reference)(state)
for inputs and t
(first two letters of functional block)(reference)(state)(signal)(state)
for outputs. For example, t
MTKHDX
symbolizes MII transmit timing (MT) for the time t
MTX
clock reference (K) going high (H) until data outputs (D) are
invalid (X). Note that, in general, the clock reference symbol representation is based on two to three letters
representing the clock of a particular functional. For example, the subscript of t
MTX
represents the MII(M) transmit
(TX) clock. For rise and fall times, the latter convention is used with the appropriate letter: R (rise) or F (fall).
2.Signal timings are measured at 0.7 V and 1.9 V voltage levels.
3.Guaranteed by design.
