MU9C8338 10/100Mb Ethernet Filter Interface
PIN DESCRIPTIONS
Note: All signals are implemented in CMOS technology with TTL levels. Signal names that start with a slash (“/”) are active LOW.
Inputs should never be left floating. Refer to the Electrical Characteristics section for more information.

MII Interface
RXD[3:0] (Receive Data, Input, TTL)
any other error that the PHY can detect, even if the MAC
is not capable of detecting that error (see Timing
Diagrams: Timing Data for RXD, RX_DV, and RX_ER).
RXD[3:0] is the 4-bit MII Receive Data nibble (see
Timing Diagrams: Timing Data for RXD, RX_DV, and
RX_ER).
RX_CLK (Receive Clock, Input, TTL)
RX_DV (Receive Data Valid, Input, TTL)
RX_CLK is the receive clock recovered from the data by
the PHY. It is equal to 25MHz in 100Base-X mode or
2.5MHz in 10Base-X mode.
Data Valid is on RX_DV; RX_DV is asserted by the PHY
at the beginning of the first nibble of the data frame and
deasserted at the end of the last nibble of the frame. It
indicates that the data is synchronous to RX_CLK and is
itself synchronous to the clock (see Timing Diagrams:
Timing Data for RXD, RX_DV, and RX_ER).
CRS (Carrier Sense, Input, TTL)
Carrier sense CRS indicates that the medium is active
(non-idle) and remains asserted during a collision. For Rx
or Tx: CRS is HIGH in 10/100Base-X half-duplex mode;
for Rx it is HIGH in repeater, full-duplex, and loopback
modes. CRS is not synchronized to RX_CLK.
RX_ER (Receive Error, Input, TTL)
RX_ER indicates a data symbol error in 100Mb/s mode or
