KS8993M/ML/MI
Integrated 3-Port 10/100 Managed
Switch with PHYs
Rev 1.04
General Description
The KS8993M, a highly integrated Layer 2 managed switch, is designed for low port count, cost-sensitive 10/100 Mbps switch systems. It offers an extensive feature set that includes tag/port-based VLAN, quality of service (QoS) priority, management, management information base (MIB) counters, MII/SNI, and CPU control/data interfaces to effectively address both current and emerging Fast Ethernet applications.
The KS8993M contains two 10/100 transceivers with patented mixed-signal low-power technology, three media access control (MAC) units, a high-speed non-blocking switch fabric, a dedicated address lookup engine, and an on-chip frame buffer memory.
Both PHY units support 10BASE-T and 100BASE­TX. In addition, one of the PHY unit supports 100BASE-FX.
The KS8993ML is the single supply version with all the identical rich features of the KS8993M.

Functional Description
The KS8993M contains two 10/100 physical layer transceivers and three MAC units with an integrated Layer 2 managed switch.
The KS8993M has the flexibility to reside in either a managed or unmanaged design. In a managed design, the host processor has complete control of the KS8993M via the SMI interface, MIIM interface, SPI bus, or I
2
C bus.
An unmanaged design is achieved through I/O strapping and/or EEPROM programming at system reset time. On the media side, the KS8993M supports IEEE 802.3 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX on both PHY ports, and
100BASE-FX on PHY port 1. The KS8993M can be used as a media converter. The KS8993ML is the single supply version with all the identical rich features of the KS8993M. In the KS8993ML
version, pin number 22 provides 1.8V output power to the KS8993ML’s V
DDC
, V
DDA
, and V
power pins. Refer
DDAP
to the Pin Description table for information about pin 22 (Pin Description and I/0 Assignment). Physical signal transmission and reception are enhanced through the use of patented analog circuitries that make
the design more efficient and allow for lower power consumption and smaller chip die size.
Functional Overview: Physical Layer Transceiver
100BASE-TX Transmit
The 100BASE-TX transmit function performs parallel to serial conversion, 4B/5B coding, scrambling, NRZ to NRZI conversion, MLT3 encoding and transmission. The circuit starts with a parallel-to -serial conversion, which converts the MII data from the MAC into a 125MHz serial bit stream. The data and control stream is then converted into 4B/5B coding and followed by a scrambler. The serialized data is further converted from NRZ to NRZI format, and then transmitted in MLT3 current output. The output current is set by an external 1% 3.01 K resistor for the 1:1 transformer ratio. It has a typical rise/fall time of 4ns and complies with the ANSI TP-PMD standard regarding amplitude balance, overshoot, and timing jitter. The wave-shaped 10BASE-T output is also incorporated into the 100BASE-TX transmitter.
100BASE-TX Receive
The 100BASE-TX receiver function performs adaptive equalization, DC restoration, MLT3 to NRZI conversion, data and clock recovery, NRZI to NRZ conversion, de-scrambling, 4B/5B decoding and serial-to-parallel conversion. The receiving side starts with the equalization filter to compensate for inter-symbol interference (ISI) over the twisted pair cable. Since the amplitude loss and phase distortion is a function of the length of the cable, the equalizer has to adjust its characteristics to optimize the performance. In this design, the variable equalizer will make an initial estimation based on comparisons of incoming signal strength against some known cable characteristics, then it tunes itself for optimization. This is an ongoing process and can self adjust against environmental changes such as temperature variations.
The equalized signal then goes through a DC restoration and data conversion block. The DC restoration circuit is used to compensate for the effect of base line wander and improve the dynamic range. The differential data conversion circuit converts the MLT3 format back to NRZI. The slicing threshold is also adaptive.
The clock recovery circuit extracts the 125MHz clock from the edges of the NRZI signal. This recovered clock is then used to convert the NRZI signal into the NRZ format. The signal is then sent through the de-scrambler followed by the 4B/5B decoder. Finally, the NRZ serial data is converted to the MII format and provided as the input data to the MAC.

PLL Clock Synthesizer
The KS8993M generates 125MHz, 31.25MHz, 25MHz, and 10MHz clocks for system timing. Internal clocks are generated from an external 25MHz crystal or oscillator.
Scrambler/De-scrambler (100BASE-TX Only)
The purpose of the scrambler is to spread the power spectrum of the signal in order to reduce EMI and baseline wander. Transmitted data is scrambled through the use of an 11-bit wide linear feedback shift register (LFSR). The scrambler can generate a 2047-bit non-repetitive sequence. The receiver will then de-scramble the incoming data stream with the same sequence at the transmitter.
100BASE-FX Operation
100BASE-FX operation is very similar to 100BASE-TX operation with the differences being that the scrambler / de-scrambler and MLT3 encoder / decoder are bypassed on transmission and reception. In 100BASE-FX mode, the auto negotiation feature is bypassed since there is no standard that supports fiber auto negotiation. The auto­MDI/MDI-X feature is also disabled.
100BASE-FX Signal Detection
In fiber operation, the KS8993M’s FXSD1 (fiber signal detect) input pin is usually connected to the fiber transceiver’s SD (signal detect) output pin. 100BASE-FX mode is activated when the FXSD1 input pin is greater than 1V. When FXSD1 is between 1V and 1.8V, no fiber signal is detected and a far end fault (FEF) is generated. When FXSD1 is over 2.2V, the fiber signal is detected.
Alternatively, the designer may choose not to implement the FEF feature. In this case, the FXSD1 input pin is tied high to force 100BASE-FX mode.
100BASE-FX signal detection is summarized in the following table:
Part Number Mode
Less than 0.2V TX mode Greater than 1V, but less than 1.8V FX mode
No signal detected. Far-end fault generated
Greater than 2.2V I FX mode

To ensure proper operation, a resistive voltage divider is recommended to adjust the fiber transceiver’s SD output voltage swing to match the KS8993M’s FXSD1 input voltage threshold.
100BASE-FX Far End Fault
An FEF occurs when the signal detection is logically false on the receive side of the fiber transceiver. The KS8993M detects a FEF when its FXSD1 input is between 1.0V and 1.8V. When an FEF occurs, the transmission side signals the other end of the link by sending 84 1’s followed by a zero in the idle period between frames.
Upon receiving an FEF, the LINK will go down (even when a fiber signal is detected) to indicate a fault condition. The transmitting side is not affected when an FEF is received, and will continue to send out its normal transmit pattern from the MAC. By default, FEF is enabled. The FEF feature can be disabled through register setting.
10BASE-T Transmit
The output 10BASE-T driver is incorporated into the 100BASE-T driver to allow transmission with the same

magnetic. They are internally wave-shaped and pre-emphasized into outputs with a typical 2.3V amplitude. The harmonic contents are at least 27dB below the fundamental when driven by an all-ones Manchester-encoded signal.
10BASE-T Receive
On the receive side, input buffers and level detecting squelch circuits are employed. A differential input receiver circuit and a PLL perform the decoding function. The Manchester-encoded data stream is separated into clock signal and NRZ data. A squelch circuit rejects signals with levels less than 400 mV or with short pulse widths in order to prevent noises at the RXP or RXM input from falsely triggering the decoder. When the input exceeds the squelch limit, the PLL locks onto the incoming signal and the KS8993M decodes a data frame. The receiver clock is maintained active during idle periods in between data reception.
Power Management
The KS8993M features a per-port power down mode. To save power, the user can power down ports that are not in use by setting the port control registers, or MII control registers. In addition, there is a full chip power down mode. When activated, the entire chip will be shut down.
MDI /MDI-X Auto Crossover
The KS8993M supports MDI/ DI-X auto crossover. This facilitates the use of either a straight connection CAT-5 cable or a crossover CAT-5 cable. The auto-sense function will detect remote transmit and receive pairs, and correctly assign the transmit and receive pairs from the KS8993M device. This feature can be extremely useful when end users are unaware of cable types and can also save on an additional uplink configuration connection. The auto-crossover feature can be disabled through the port control registers.
Based on the IEEE 802.3 standard, the MDI and MDI-X definitions are as follows:

Auto Negotiation
The KS8993M conforms to the auto negotiation protocol as described by the 802.3 committee. Auto negotiation allows unshielded twisted pair (UTP) link partners to select the best common mode of operation. In auto negotiation, the link partners advertise capabilities across the link to each other. If auto negotiation is not supported or the link partner to the KS8993M is forced to bypass auto negotiation, then the mode is set by observing the signal at the receiver. This is known as parallel mode because while the transmitter is sending auto negotiation advertisements, the receiver is listening for advertisements or a fixed signal protocol.
The link setup is shown in the following flow diagram.

Functional Overview: MAC and Switch
Address Lookup
The internal lookup table stores MAC addresses and their associated information. It contains a 1K uni-cast address table plus switching information. The KS8993M is guaranteed to learn 1K addresses and distinguishes itself from hash-based lookup tables, which depending on the operating environment and probabilities, may not guarantee the absolute number of addresses that can be learned.
Learning
The internal lookup engine will update its table with a new entry if the following conditions are met:
1. The received packet's SA does not exist in the lookup table.
2. The received packet is good; the packet has no receiving errors, and is of legal length. The lookup engine will insert the qualified SA into the table, along with the port number and time stamp. If the table is full, the last entry of the table will be deleted to make room for the new entry.
Migration
The internal lookup engine also monitors whether a station has moved. If so, it will update the table accordingly. Migration happens when the following conditions are met:
1. The received packet's SA is in the table but the associated source port information is different.
2. The received packet is good; the packet has no receiving errors, and is of legal length. The lookup engine will update the existing record in the table with the new source port information.
Aging
The lookup engine will update the time stamp information of a record whenever the corresponding SA appears. The time stamp is used in the aging process. If a record is not updated for a period of time, the lookup engine will remove the record from the table. The lookup engine constantly performs the aging process and will continuously remove aging records. The aging period is about 200 seconds. This feature can be enabled or disabled through Global Register 3 (0x03).
Forwarding
The KS8993M will forward packets using the algorithm that is depicted in the following flowcharts. Figure 4 shows stage one of the forwarding algorithm where the search engine looks up the VLAN ID, static table, and dynamic table for the destination address, and comes up with “port to forward 1” (PTF1). PTF1 is then further modified by spanning tree, IGMP snooping, port mirroring, and port VLA processes to come up with “port to forward 2” (PTF2), as shown in Figure 5. The packet is sent to PTF2.

The KS8993M will not forward the following packets:
1. Error packets. These include framing errors, FCS errors, alignment errors, and illegal size packet errors.
2. 802.3x pause frames. The KS8993M will intercept these packets and perform the appropriate actions.
3. "Local" packets. Based on destination address (DA) lookup. If the destination port from the lookup table matches the port where the packet was from, the packet is defined as "local."

Switching Engine
The KS8993M features a high-performance switching engine to move data to and from the MACs’ packet buffers. It operates in store and forward mode, while the efficient switching mechanism reduces overall latency.
The KS8993M has a 32kB internal frame buffer. This resource is shared between all three ports. The buffer­sharing mode can be programmed through Global Register 2 (0x02). In one mode, ports are allowed to use any free buffers in the buffer pool. In the second mode, each port is only allowed to use one third of the total buffer pool. There are a total of 250 buffers available. Each buffer is sized at 128B.
MAC Operation
The KS8993M strictly abides by IEEE 802.3 standards to maximize compatibility.
Inter Packet Gap (IPG)
If a frame is successfully transmitted, the 96 bits time IPG is measured between the two consecutive MTXEN. If the current packet is experiencing collision, the 96 bits time IPG is measured from MCRS and the next MTXEN.
Back-Off Algorithm
The KS8993M implements the IEEE standard 802.3 binary exponential back-off algorithm, and optional "aggressive mode" back-off. After 16 collisions, the packet will be optionally dropped depending on the chip configuration in Global Register 3 (0x03)
Late Collision
If a transmit packet experiences collisions after 512 bit times of the transmission, the packet will be dropped.
Illegal Frames
The KS8993M discards frames less than 64 bytes and can be programmed to accept frames up to 1536 bytes in Global Register 4 (0x04). For special applications, the KS8993M can also be programmed to accept frames up to 1916 bytes in the same global register. Since the KS8993M supports VLAN tags, the maximum sizing is adjusted when these tags are present. See the EEPROM section for programming options.
Flow Control
The KS8993M supports standard 802.3x flow control frames on both transmit and receive sides. On the receive side, if the KS8993M receives a pause control frame, the KS8993M will not transmit the next
normal frame until the timer, specified in the pause control frame, expires. If another pause frame is received before the current timer expires, the timer will be updated with the new value in the second pause frame. During this period (being flow controlled), only flow control packets from the KS8993M will be transmitted.
On the transmit side, the KS8993M has intelligent and efficient ways to determine when to invoke flow control. The flow control is based on availability of the system resources, including available buffers, available transmit queues and available receive queues.
The KS8993M will flow control a port, which just received a packet, if the destination port resource is being used up. The KS8993M will issue a flow control frame (XOFF), containing the maximum pause time defined in IEEE standard 802.3x. Once the resource is freed up, the KS8993M will send out the other flow control frame (XON) with zero pause time to turn off the flow control (turn on transmission to the port). A hysteresis feature is provided to prevent the flow control mechanism from being activated and deactivated too many times.
The KS8993M will flow control all ports if the receive queue becomes full.
Half-Duplex Backpressure
A half-duplex backpressure option (Note: not in IEEE 802.3 standards) is also provided. The activation and deactivation conditions are the same as the above in full duplex mode. If backpressure is required, the KS8993M will send preambles to defer the other stations' transmission (carrier sense deference). To avoid jabber and excessive deference defined in 802.3 standard, after a certain time it will discontinue the carrier sense but it will raise the carrier sense quickly. This short silent time (no carrier sense) is to prevent other stations from sending
29 M9999-041205
Micrel, Inc. KS8993M/ML/MI
out packets and keeps other stations in carrier sense deferred state. If the port has packets to send during a backpressure situation, the carrier sense type back pressure will be interrupted and those packets will be transmitted instead. If there are no more packets to send, carrier sense type backpressure will be active again until switch resources free up. If a collision occurs, the binary exponential back-off algorithm is skipped and carrier sense is generated immediately, reducing the chance of further colliding and maintaining carrier sense to prevent reception of packets.
To ensure no packet loss in 10 BASE-T or 100 BASE-TX half duplex modes, the user must enable the following:
1. Aggressive back off (Global Register 3 (0x03), bit 0 or external strap-in pin SMAC = high)
2. No excessive collision drop (Global Register 4 (0x04), bit 3 or external strap-in pin SMAC = high)
These bits are not set as defaults because this is not the IEEE standard.
Broadcast Storm Protection
The KS8993M has an intelligent option to protect the switch system from receiving too many broadcast packets. Broadcast packets will be forwarded to all ports except the source port, and thus use too many switch resources (bandwidth and available space in transmit queues). The KS8993M has the option to include “multicast packets” for storm control. The broadcast storm rate parameters are programmed globally, and can be enabled or disabled on a per port basis. The rate is based on a 67ms interval for 100BT and a 500ms interval for 10BT. At the beginning of each interval, the counter is cleared to zero, and the rate limit mechanism starts to count the number of bytes during the interval. The rate definition is described in Global Register 6 (0x06) and 7 (0x07). The default setting for registers 6 and 7 is 0x63, which is 99 decimal. This is equal to a rate of 1%, calculated as follows:
148,800 frames/sec * 67ms/interval * 1% = 99 frames/interval (approx.) = 0x63
MII Interface Operation
The MII is specified by the IEEE 802.3 standards committee and provides a common interface between physical layer and MAC layer devices. The MII Interface provided by the KS8993M is connected to the device’s third MAC. The interface contains two distinct groups of signals: one for transmission and the other for reception. The following table describes the signals used in the MII interface.

The MII interface operates in either PHY mode or MAC mode. The interface is a nibble wide data interfaces and therefore run at ¼ the network bit rate (not encoded). Additional signals on the transmit side indicate when data is valid or when an error occurs duri ng transmis sion. Likewi se, the receive side has indicators that convey when the data is valid and without physical layer errors. For half duplex operation there is a signal that indicates a collision has occurred during transmission.
Note that the signal MRXER is not provided on the interface for PHY mode operation and the signal MTXER is not provided on the interface for MAC mode operation. Normally MRXER would indicate a receive error coming from the physical layer device. MTXER would indicate a transmit error from the MAC device. These signals are not appropriate for this configuration. For PHY mode operation, if the device interfacing with the KS8993M has an MRXER pin, it should be tied low. For MAC mode operation, if the device interfacing with the KS8993M has an MTXER pin, it should be tied low.
SNI (7-Wire) Operation
The serial network interface (SNI) or 7-wire is compatible with some controllers used for network layer protocol processing. In SNI mode, the KS8993M acts like a PHY and the external controller functions as the MAC. The KS8993M can interface directly with external controllers using the 7-wire interface. These signals are divided into two groups, one for transmission and the other for reception. The signals involved are described in the following table.

KS8993M PHY Signals
The SNI interface is a bit wide data interface and therefore runs at the network bit rate (not encoded). An additional signal on the transmit side indicates when data is valid. Similarly, the receive side has an indicator that conveys when the data is valid.
For half duplex operation, the KS8993M’s SCOL signal is used to indicate that a collision has occurred during transmission.
MII Management Interface (MIIM)
The KS8993M supports the IEEE 802.3 MII Management Interface, also known as the Management Data Input/Output (MDIO) Interface. This interface allows upper-layer devices to monitor and control the states of the KS8993M. An external device with MDC/MDIO capability can be used to read the PHY status or configure the PHY settings. Further details on the MIIM interface can be found in section 22.2.4.5 of the IEEE 802.3 specification.

The MIIM interface consists of the following:
A physical connection that incorporates the data line (MDIO) and the clock line (MDC). A specific protocol that operates across the aforementioned physical connection that allows an external
controller to communicate with the KS8993M device.
Access to a set of six 16-bits registers, consisting of standard MIIM registers [0:5].

Serial Management Interface (SMI)
The SMI is the KS8993M non-standard MIIM interface that provides access to all KS8993M configuration registers. This interface allows an external device to completely monitor and control the states of the KS8993M.
The SMI interface consists of the following:
A physical connection that incorporates the data line (MDIO) and the clock line (MDC). A specific protocol that operates across the aforementioned physical connection that allows an external
controller to communicate with the KS8993M device.

To access the KS8993M registers 0-127 (0x00 – 0x7F), the following applies:
PHYAD[4:3] and REGAD[4:0] are concatenated to form the 7-bits address; that is, {PHYAD[4:3],

SMI register access is the same as the MIIM register access, except for the register access requirements presented in this section.
Advanced Switch Functions
Spanning Tree Support
To support spanning tree, port 3 is the designated port for the processor. The other ports (port 1 and port 2) can be configured in one of the five spanning tree states via “transmit enable”,
“receive enable” and “learning disable” register settings in registers 18 and 34 for ports 1 and 2, respectively. The following description shows the port setting and software actions taken for each of the five spanning tree states.
Disable state:
Learning is disabled. Port setting: “transmit enable = 0, receive enable = 0, learning disable =1”

Upstream Special Tagging Mode
Upstream Special Tagging Mode is designed for spanning tree protocol IGMP snooping and is flexible for use in other applications. The Upstream Special Tagging Mode, similar to 802.1Q, requires software to change network drivers to modify/strip/interpret the special tag. This mode is enabled by setting both register 11 bit 0 and register 48 bit 2 to “1”.
802.1Q Tag Format Special Tag Format
TPID (tag protocol identifier, 0x8100) + TCI.
Table 7. Upstream Special Tagging Mode Format
STPID (special tag identifier, 0x810 + 4 bit for “port mask”) + TCI
The STPID is only seen and used by the port 3 interface, which should be connected to a processor. The KS8993M uses a non-zero “port mask” to bypass the lookup result and override any port setting, regardless
of port states (disable, blocking, listening, learning). For packets from regular ports (port 1 & port 2) to port 3, the port mask is used to tell the processor which port the
packets were received on, defined as follows: “0001” from port 1
“0010” from port 2 No port mask values, other than the previous two defined ones, should be received in Upstream Special Tagging
Mode. The egress rules are defined as follows:
Ingress Packets Egress Action to Tag Field
- Modify TPID to 0x810 + “port mask”, which indicates source port.
Tagged with 0x8100 + TCI
Not tagged.

- Recalculate CRC
- Insert TPID to 0x810 + “port mask”, which indicates source port – Insert TCI with ingress port VID
- Recalculate CRC

IGMP Support
For IGMP support in layer 2, the KS8993M provides two components:
“IGMP” Snooping The KS8993M will trap IGMP packets and forward them only to the processor (port 3). The IGMP packets are
identified as IP packets (either Ethernet IP packets, or IEEE 802.3 SNAP IP packets) with IP version = 0x4 and protocol version number = 0x2.
“Multicast Address Insertion” in the Static MAC Table
Once the multicast address is programmed in the Static MAC Table, the multicast session will be trimmed to the subscribed ports, instead of broadcasting to all ports.
To enable IGMP support, set register 5 bit 6 to “1”. Also, “Special Tagging Mode” needs to be enabled, so that the processor knows which port the IGMP packet was received on. This is achieved by setting both register 11 bit 0 and register 48 bit 2 to “1.”
Port Mirroring Support
KS8993M supports “Port Mirroring” comprehensively as:
1. “receive only” mirror on a port
example, port 1 is programmed to be “receive sniff” and port 3 is programmed to be the “sniffer port”. A packet received on port 1 is destined to port 2 after the internal lookup. The KS8993M will forward the packet to both port 2 and port 3. The KS8993M can optionally forward even “bad” received packets to the “sniffer port”.
2. “transmit only” mirror on a port
For example, port 1 is programmed to be “transmit sniff” and port 3 is programmed to be the “sniffer port”. A packet received on port 2 is destined to port 1 after the internal lookup. The KS8993M will forward the packet to both port 1 and port 3.
3. “receive and transmit” mirror on two ports
be mirrored on the sniffer port. To turn on the “AND” feature, set register 5 bit 0 to “1”. For example, port 1 is programmed to be “receive sniff”, port 2 is programmed to be “transmit sniff” and port 3 is programmed to be the “sniffer port”. A packet received on port 1 is destined to port 2 after the internal lookup. The KS8993M will forward the packet to both port 2 and port 3.
Multiple ports can be selected to be “receive sniff” or “transmit sniff”. And any port can be selected to be the “sniffer port”. All these per port features can be selected through registers 17, 33 and 49 for ports 1, 2 and 3, respectively.
IEEE 802.1Q VLAN Support
The KS8993M supports 16 active VLANs out of the 4096 possible VLANs specified in the IEEE 802.1Q specification. KS8993M provides a 16-entries VLAN Table, which converts the 12-bits VLAN ID (VID) to the 4-bits Filter ID (FID) for address lookup. If a non-tagged or null-VID-tagged packet is received, the ingress port default VID is used for lookup. In VLAN mode, the lookup process starts with VLAN Table lookup to determine whether the VID is valid. If the VID is not valid, the packet will be dropped and its address will not be learned. If the VID is valid, the FID is retrieved for further lookup. The FID + Destination Address (FID+DA) are used to determine the destination port. The FID + Source Address (FID+SA) are used for address learning.
All the packets received on the port will be mirrored on the sniffer port. For
All the packets transmitted on the port will be mirrored on the sniffer port.

Advanced VLAN features, such as “Ingress VLAN filtering” and “Discard Non PVID packets” are also supported by the KS8993M. These features can be set on a per port basis, and are defined in register 18, bit 6 and bit 5, respectively for port 1.
QoS Priority Support
This feature provides Quality of Service (QoS) for applications, such as VoIP and video conferencing. The KS8993M per port transmit queue could be split into two priority queues: a high priority queue and a low priority queue. Bit 0 of registers 16, 32 and 48 is used to enable split transmit queues for ports 1, 2 and 3, respectively. Optionally, the Px_TXQ2 strap-in pins can be used to enable this feature. With split transmit queues, high priority packets will be placed in the high priority queue and low priority packets will be placed in the low priority queue.
For split transmit queues, the KS8993M provides four priority schemes:
1. “Transmit all high priority packets before low priority packets;” i.e. a low priority packet could be transmitted only when the high priority queue is empty
2. “Transmit high priority packets and low priority packets at 10:1 ratio;” i.e. transmit a low priority packet after every 10 high priority packets are transmitted, if both queues are busy
3. “Transmit high priority packets and low priority packets at 5:1 ratio”
4. “Transmit high priority packets and low priority packets at 2:1 ratio”
If a port's transmit queue is not split, both high priority packets and low priority packets have equal priority in the transmit queue. Register 5 bits [3:2] are used to select the desired priority scheme. Optionally, the PRSEL1 and PRSEL0 strap-in pins can be used.
36 M9999-041205
Micrel, Inc. KS8993M/ML/MI
Port-Based Priority With port based priority, each ingress port can be individually classified as a high priority receiving port. All
packets received at the high priority receiving port are marked as high priority, and will be sent to the high priority transmit queue if the corresponding transmit queue is split. Bit 4 of registers 16, 32 and 48 is used to enable port based priority for ports 1, 2 and 3, respectively. Optionally, the Px_PP strap-in pins can be used to enable this feature.
802.1p-Based Priority
For 802.1p based priority, the KS8993M will examine the ingress (incoming) packets to determine whether they are tagged. If tagged, the 3-bits priority field in the VLAN tag is retrieved and compared against the “priority base” value, specified by register 2 bits [6:4]. The “priority base” value is programmable; its default value is 0x4.
The following figure illustrates how the 802.1p priority field is embedded in the 802.1Q VLAN tag.

If an ingress packet has an equal or higher priority value than the "priority base" value, the packet will be placed in the high priority transmit queue if the corresponding transmit queue is split. 802.1p based priority is enabled by bit 5 of registers 16, 32 and 48 for ports 1, 2 and 3, respectively. Optionally, the Px_1PEN strap-in pins can be used to enable this feature.
The KS8993M provides the option to insert or remove the priority tagged frame's header at each individual egress port. This header, consisting of the 2 bytes VLAN Protocol ID (VPID) and the 2 bytes Tag Control Information field (TCI), is also refer to as the 802.1Q VLAN Tag.
Tag Insertion is enabled by bit 2 of registers 16, 32 and 48 for ports 1, 2 and 3, respectively. Optionally, the Px_TAGINS strap-in pins can be used to enable this feature. At the egress port, untagged packets are tagged with the ingress port’s default tag. The default tags are programmed in register sets {19,20}, {35,36} and {51,52} for ports 1, 2 and 3, respectively. The KS8993M will not add tags to already tagged packets.
Tag Removal is enabled by bit 1 of registers 16, 32 and 48 for ports 1, 2 and 3, respectively. Optionally, the Px_TAGRM strap-in pins can be used to enable this feature. At the egress port, tagged packets will have their
802.1Q VLAN Tags removed. The KS8993M will not modify untagged packets.
The CRC is recalculated for both tag insertion and tag removal.
802.1p Priority Field Re-mapping is a QoS feature that allows the KS8993M to set the “User Priority Ceiling” at
any ingress port. If the ingress packet’s priority field has a higher priority value than the default tag’s priority field of the ingress port, the packet’s priority field is replaced with the default tag’s priority field. The “User Priority Ceiling” is enabled by bit 3 of registers 16, 32 and 48 for ports 1, 2 and 3, respectively.
DiffServ-Based Priority
DiffServ-based priority uses registers 96 to 103. More details are provided at the beginning of the Advanced Control Registers section.

Micrel, Inc. KS8993M/ML/MI
Rate Limiting Support
The KS8993M supports hardware rate limiting independently on the “receive side” and on the “transmit side” on a per port basis. Rate limiting is supported in both priority and non-priority environment. The rate limit starts from 0 kbps and goes up to the line rate in steps of 32 kbps. The KS8993M uses “one second” as the rate limiting interval. At the beginning of each interval, the counter is cleared to zero, and the rate limit mechanism starts to count the number of bytes during the interval.
On the “receive side”, if the number of bytes exceeds the programmed limit, the switch will stop receiving packets on the port until the “one second” interval expires. Flow control can be enabled to prevent packet loss. If the rate limit is programmed greater than or equal to 128 kbps and the byte counter is 8 Kbytes below the limit, flow control will be triggered. If the rate limit is programmed lower than 128 kbps and the byte counter is 2 Kbytes below the limit, flow control will also be triggered.
On the “transmit side”, if the number of bytes exceeds the programmed limit, the switch will stop transmitting packets on the port until the “one second” interval expires.
If priority is enabled, the KS8993M can be programmed to support different rate limits for high priority packets and low priority packets.
Configuration Interface
The KS8993M can operate as both a managed switch and an unmanaged switch. In unmanaged mode, the KS8993M is typically programmed using an EEPROM. If no EEPROM is present, the
KS8993M is configured using its default register settings. Some defaults settings are configured via strap-in pin options. The strap-in pins are indicated in the “KS8993M Pin Description and I/O Assignment” table.

C Master configuration, the EEPROM stores the configuration data for register 0 to register 109 (as defined in the KS8993M register map) with the exception of the “Read Only” status registers. After the de­assertion of reset, the KS8993M will sequentially read in the configuration data for all 110 registers, starting from register 0. The configuration access time (t
) is less than 15 ms, as depicted in the following figure.

The following is a sample procedure for programming the KS8993M with a pre-configured EEPROM:
1. Connect the KS8993M to the EEPROM by joining the SCL and SDA signals of the respective devices. For the
KS8993M, SCL is pin 97 and SDA is pin 98.

2. Enable I2C master mode by setting the KS8993M strap-in pins, PS[1:0] (pins 100 and 101, respectively) to
“00”.
3. Check to ensure that the KS8993M reset signal input, RST_N (pin 67), is properly connected to the external
reset source at the board level.
4. Program the desired configuration data into the EEPROM.
5. Place the EEPROM on the board and power up the board.
6. Assert an active-low reset to the RST_N pin of the KS8993M. After reset is de-asserted, the KS8993M will
begin reading the configuration data from the EEPROM. The KS8993M will check that the first byte read from the EEPROM is “93”. If this value is correct, EEPROM configuration will continue. If not, EEPROM configuration access is denied and all other data sent from the EEPROM will be ignored by the KS8993M. The configuration access time (t
) is less than 15ms.

Note: For proper operation, check to ensure that the KS8993M PWRDN input signal (pin 36) is not asserted during the reset operation. The PWRDN input is active low.

C Slave Serial Bus Configuration
In managed mode, the KS8993M can be configured as an I
2
C slave device. In this mode, an I2C master device (external controller/CPU) has complete programming access to the KS8993M’s 128 registers. Programming access includes the Global Registers, Port Registers, Advanced Control Registers and indirect access to the “Static MAC Table”, “VLAN Table”, “Dynamic MAC Table,” and “MIB Counters.” The tables and counters are indirectly accessed via registers 110 thru 120.

In I
C slave mode, the KS8993M operates like other I2C slave devices. Addressing the KS8993M’s 8 bit registers
is similar to addressing Atmel’s AT24C02 EEPROM’s memory locations. Details of I
2
C read/write operations and
related timing information can be found in the AT24C02 Datasheet. Two fixed 8 bits device addresses are used to address the KS8993M in I
2
C slave mode. One is for read; the other
is for write. The addresses are as follow: 1011_1111 <read> 1011_1110 <write> The following is a sample procedure for programming the KS8993M using the I

5. Write a ‘1’ to the “Start Switch” bit to start the KS8993M with the programmed settings. Note: The “Start Switch” bit cannot be set to ‘0’ to stop the switch after an ‘1’ is written to this bit. Thus, it is
recommended that all switch configuration settings are programmed before the “Start Switch” bit is set to ‘1’. Some of the configuration settings, such as “Aging enable”, “Auto Negotiation Enable”, “Force Speed” and “Power
down” can be programmed after the switch has been started.
SPI Slave Serial Bus Configuration
In managed mode, the KS8993M can be configured as a SPI slave device. In this mode, a SPI master device (external controller/CPU) has complete programming access to the KS8993M’s 128 registers. Programming access includes the Global Registers, Port Registers, Advanced Control Registers and indirect access to the “Static MAC Table”, “VLAN Table”, “Dynamic MAC Table” and “MIB Counters”. The tables and counters are indirectly accessed via registers 110 thru 120.
The KS8993M supports two standard SPI commands: ‘0000_0011’ for data read and ‘0000_0010’ for data write. SPI multiple read and multiple write are also supported by the KS8993M to expedite register read back and register configuration, respectively.
39 M9999-041205
Micrel, Inc. KS8993M/ML/MI
SPI multiple read is initiated when the master device continues to drive the KS8993M SPIS_N input pin (SPI Slave Select signal) low after a byte (a register) is read. The KS8993M internal address counter will increment automatically to the next byte (next register) after the read. The next byte at the next register address will be shifted out onto the KS8993M SPIQ output pin. SPI multiple read will continue until the SPI master device terminates it by de-asserting the SPIS_N signal to the KS8993M.
Similarly, SPI multiple write is initiated when the master device continues to drive the KS8993M SPIS_N input pin low after a byte (a register) is written. The KS8993M internal address counter will increment automatically to the next byte (next register) after the write. The next byte that is sent from the master device to the KS8993M SDA input pin will be written to the next register address. SPI multiple write will continue until the SPI master device terminates it by de-asserting the SPIS_N signal to the KS8993M.
For both SPI multiple read and multiple write, the KS8993M internal address counter will wrap back to register address zero once the highest register address is reached. This feature allows all 128 KS8993M registers to be read, or written with a single SPI command and any initial register address.
The KS8993M is capable of supporting a 5MHz SPI bus. The following is a sample procedure for programming the KS8993M using the SPI bus:
1. At the board level, connect the KS8993M pins as follows:

2. Enable SPI slave mode by setting the KS8993M strap-in pins PS[1:0] (pins 100 and 101, respectively) to “10”.
3. Power up the board and assert reset to the KS8993M.
After reset, the “Start Switch” bit (register 1 bit 0) will be set to ‘0’.
4. Configure the desired register settings in the KS8993M, using the SPI write or multiple write command.
5. Read back and verify the register settings in the KS8993M, using the SPI read or multiple read command.
6. Write a ‘1’ to the “Start Switch” bit to start the KS8993M with the programmed settings. Note: The “Start Switch” bit cannot be set to ‘0’ to stop the switch after an ‘1’ is written to this bit. Thus, it is
recommended that all switch configuration settings are programmed before the “Start Switch” bit is set to ‘1’. Some of the configuration settings, such as “Aging enable”, “Auto Negotiation Enable”, “Force Speed” and “Power
down” can be programmed after the switch has been started. The following four figures illustrate the SPI data cycles for “Write”, “Read”, “Multiple Write” and “Multiple Read”.
The read data is registered out of SPIQ on the falling edge of SPIC, and the data input on SPID is registered on the rising edge of SPIC.

Loopback Support
The KS8993M provides loopback support for remote diagnostic of failure. In loopback mode, the speed at both PHY ports needs to be set to 100BASE-TX, and the “Priority Buffer reserve” bit needs to be set to 48 pre­allocated buffers per output queue. The latter is required to prevent loopback packet drops and is achieved by setting register 4 bit 0 to ‘1’.
Bit 0 of registers 29 and 45 is used to enable loopback for ports 1 and 2, respectively. Alternatively, the MII Management register 0, bit 14 can be used to enable loopback. Loopback is conducted between the KS8993M’s two PHY ports. The loopback path starts at the “Originating.”
PHY ports receive inputs (RXP/RXM), wraps around at the “loopback” PHY port’s PMD/PMA, and ends at the “Originating” PHY port’s transmit outputs (TXP/TXM). The KS8993M loopback path is illustrated in the following figure.

MII Management (MIIM) Registers
The MIIM interface is used to access the MII PHY registers defined in this section. The SPI, I2C, and SMI interfaces can also be used to access these registers. The latter three interfaces use a different mapping mechanism than the MIIM interface.
As defined in the IEEE 802.3 specification, the “PHYAD” are assigned as “0x1” for PHY port 1 and “0x2” for PHY port 2. The “REGAD” supported are 0,1,2,3,4, and 5.

Note:
In (PS1, PS0) = (0, 0) mode, the chip will start automatically after trying to read the external EEPROM. If EEPROM does not exist, the chip will use pin strapping and default values for all internal registers. If EEPROM is present, the contents in the EEPROM will be checked. The switch will check: (1) Register 0 = 0x93, (2) Register 1 bits [7:4] = 0x0. If this check is OK, the contents in the EEPROM will override chip registers’ default values.

Advanced Control Registers
The IPv4 TOS priority control registers implement a fully decoded 64 bit differentiated services code point (DSCP) register used to determine priority from the 6 bit TOS field in the IP header. The most significant 6 bits of the TOS field are fully decoded into 64 possibilities, and the singular code that results is compared against the corresponding bit in the DSCP register. f the register bit is a 1, the priority is high; if it is a 0, the priority is low.

Static MAC Address Table
The KS8993M has both a static and a dynamic MAC address table. When a destination address (DA) lookup is requested, both tables are searched to make a packet forwarding decision. When a SA lookup is requested, only the dynamic table is searched for aging, migration and learning purposes. The static DA lookup result will have precedence over the dynamic DA lookup result. If there is a DA match in both tables, the result from the static table will be used. The static table can be accessed and controlled by an external processor via the SMI, SPI and
2
I
C interfaces. The external processor performs all addition, modification and deletion of static table entries.
These entries in the static table will not be aged out by the KS8993M.

VLAN Table
VLAN table is used to do VLAN table lookup. If 802.1Q VLAN mode is enabled (Register 5, Bit 7 = 1), this table will be used to retrieve the VLAN information that is associated with the ingress packet. This information includes FID (filter ID), VID (VLAN ID), and VLAN membership as described in the following table.

Valid R/W = 1, the entry is valid
= 0, entry is invalid Specify which ports are members of the VLAN. If
a DA lookup fails (no match in both static and dynamic tables), then the packet associated with this VLAN will be forwarded to ports specified in this field. For example, 101 means port 3 and 1 are in this VLAN.
Filter ID. KS8993M supports 16 active VLANs represented by these four bit fields. FID is the mapped ID. If 802.1Q VLAN is enabled, the lookup will be based on FID+DA and FID+SA.
Table 13. Format of Static VLAN Table (16 Entries)

0x0
If 802.1Q VLAN mode is enabled, KS8993M will assign a VID to every ingress packet. If the packet is untagged or tagged with a null VID, the packet is assigned with the default port VID of the ingress port. If the packet is tagged with non null VID, the VID in the tag will be used. The lookup process will start from the VLAN table lookup. If the VID is not valid, the packet will be dropped and no address learning will take place. If the VID is valid, the FID is retrieved. The FID+DA and FID+SA lookups are performed. The FID+DA lookup determines the forwarding ports. If FID+DA fails, the packet will be broadcast to all the members (excluding the ingress port) of the VLAN. If FID+SA fails, the FID+SA will be learned.
Examples:
1. VLAN Table Read (read the 3

Examples:
1. MIB Counter Read (Read port 1 “Rx64Octets” Counter)
Write to reg. 110 with 0x1c (read MIB counters selected) Write to reg. 111 with 0x0e (trigger the read operation)
Then
Read reg. 117 (counter value 30-24) // If bit 30 = 0, restart (reread) from this register Read reg. 118 (counter value 23-16) Read reg. 119 (counter value 15-8) Read reg. 120 (counter value 7-0)
2. MIB Counter Read (Read Port 2 “Rx64Octets” Counter)
Write to reg. 110 with 0x1c (read MIB counter selected) Write to reg. 111 with 0x2e (trigger the read operation)

Then,
Read reg. 117 (counter value 30-24) // If bit 30 = 0, restart (reread) from this register Read reg. 118 (counter value 23-16) Read reg. 119 (counter value 15-8) Read reg. 120 (counter value 7-0)
3. MIB Counter Read (Read “Port1 TX Drop Packets” Counter)
Write to reg. 110 with 0x1d (read MIB counter selected) Write to reg. 111 with 0x00 (trigger the read operation)
Then Read reg. 119 (counter value 15-8) Read reg. 120 (counter value 7-0)
Additional Information
Both “Per Port” and “All Port Dropped Packet” MIB counters do not indicate overflow. The application must keep track of overflow conditions for these counters.
“All Port Dropped Packet” MIB counters do not indicate if count is valid. The application must keep track of valid conditions for these counters.
To read out all the counters, the best performance over the SPI bus is (160+3)*8*200 = 260ms, where there are 160 registers, 3 overheads, 8 clocks per access, at 5MHz. In the heaviest condition, the counters will overflow in 2 minutes. It is recommended that the software read all the counters at least every 30 seconds.
A high performance SPI master is also recommended to prevent counters overflow. Per Port MIB counters are designed as “read clear.” That is, these counters will be cleared after they are read. “All Port Dropped Packet” MIB counters are not cleared after they are read.

Reset Timing
As long as the stable supply voltages to reset high timing (minimum of10ms) are met, there is no power sequencing requirement for the KS8993M supply voltages (1.8V, 3.3).
It is recommended to wait 100µsec after the de-assertion of reset before starting programming on the managed interface.
The reset timing requirement is summarized in the following figure and table.

Reset Circuit Diagram
Micrel recommends the following discrete reset circuit as shown in Figure 24 when powering up the KS8893M/ML/MI device. For the application where the reset circuit signal comes from another device (e.g., CPU, FPGA, etc), we recommend the reset circuit as shown in Figure 25.
82 M9999-041205
Micrel, Inc. KS8993M/ML/MI
Figure 24. Recommended Reset Circuit
Figure 25. Recommended Circuit for Interfacing with CPU/FPGA Reset
At power-on-reset, R, C, and D1 provide the necessary ramp rise time to reset the Micrel device. The reset out from CPU/FPGA provides warm reset after power up. It is also recommended to power up the VDD core voltage earlier than VDDIO voltage. At worst case, the both VDD core and VDDIO voltages should come up at the same time.
