Dual DP83640 Ethernet PHY HSMC Daughter Board
Reference Guide
V1.0 - October 2013
1 Introduction
The Nine Ways PhyworkX DP83640 Ethernet Development Kit provides an Ethernet PHY
Daughter Board implementing two 10/100 Ethernet copper ports with high precision IEEE
1588 time synchronization support.
The board implements two independent Ethernet interfaces with several system interface
options and can be used in single and multi-channel applications.
The daughter board implements a High Speed Mezzanine Card (HSMC) connector to the
main board that implements parallel RMII and provides the necessary 3.3V power supply.
In combination with the MorethanIP/Nine Ways Ethernet Cores (e.g. MAC, Switch, IEEE 1588)
the PHY daughter board can be used to quickly design, implement, prototype and test
embedded Ethernet Telecom or Industrial applications with support for precise timing
according to the IEEE 1588 standard.
The board is optionally available with reference designs using a MAC, with support for
IEEE1588, for precise time synchronization applications, or with a 3-port Switch application.
The board can be used with any Altera (e.g. Arria GX, Stratix II GX, Cyclone III) or Nine Ways
board that implements a HSMC connector.

3.2.1 LEDs
The RJ45 connector provides a green and orange LED on its front side individual per port.
Table 1: RJ45 LEDs
Note: The PHY powers up in Mode 1 for the LEDs (see strap options). That is, the LEDs are showing
the above information. Line activity is not visible in this mode as there is no separate activity LED. It
is possible to configure the PHY to operate the LEDs in Mode 2 by writing into MDIO register 0x19
clearing bits 5,6. In this mode, the link led will be on when the link is established and then blink on
activity.
3.2.2 PHY Generic I/O (GPIO), J2, J3
Each PHY provides several general-purpose I/O pins for event generation and event capture.
Four of these (gpio1-4) are available on a 5x2 connector on the daughter board per
PHY device.
In addition, the gpio4 is also available at the HSMC connector.
Gpio8 of the PHY is wired to HSMC only.
clk_out of the PHY is wired to HSMC and to the connector

The Connector J2 is for Port 0; Connector J3 is for Port 1.
Note: gpio9 is connected in-between both PHY devices exclusively to allow synchronization of
the internal 1588 timers during operation.
3.2.3 Application (HSMC) General Purpose I/O, J4
For arbitrary purposes a 5x2 connector (J4) provides 5 signals that can be used for any
implementation specific function. The signals are available at the HSMC connector only.

4 Clock Distribution - MAC Interface Clocking
After power-up the PHYs are configured to implement parallel RMII MAC interfaces.
PHY1 is configured in RMII master mode and is responsible to generate all necessary clocks
for the 2nd PHY (PHY2) as well as the MAC interfaces. PHY1 needs a 25MHz clock reference
on its X1 clock input, which must be provided by the application through the HSMC connector.
The MAC interface is synchronous to the 50MHz reference clock provided by PHY1. PHY1
provides the RMII interface clock on its rx_clk and tx_clk outputs.
The PHYs are configured (see Strap Options, see section 5.2) to provide the internal
synchronized IEEE 1588 clock on its clk_out pin, which is available to the HSMC for use by
1588 related functions of the application.
Note: gpio9 is connected in-between both PHY devices exclusively to allow synchronization of the
internal 1588 timers of both devices during operation.

5 Power-Up Strap Options
When the board powers up it is configured to the following settings. Each PHY has slightly
different settings as they have different modes of operation.
PHY 1 is configured in RMII Master Mode.
PHY 2 is configured in RMII Slave Mode.
5.1 PHY 1 Strap Options
PHY Address set to 1
Mode set to RMII Master
Auto negotiation is enabled for all ports
Automatic cable crossover is enabled for all ports
The optional clk_out clock output of the PHY is enabled
Refer to the DP83640 datasheet for full detail.
The "wiring" column indicates what kind of strap-option is used on the pin:
A wiring of 'pull-up' means a pull-up (2.2K to VCC) is wired.
A wiring of 'pull-down' means a pull-down (2.2K to GND) is wired.
A wiring of "nc" means that pin has no strapping resistor connected to it.

6 MDIO Management
The PHYs can be configured for several modes of operation through the 2-wire MDIO/MDC
management interface.
Both PHY devices share the same mdio/mdc bus. The PHYs support an MDC clock of up to
25MHz.
The PHYs support a so-called broadcast function when commands are sent to the PHY
address 31, which then will be accepted by both PHYs at the same time.
The PHYs can be individually addressed using the following MDIO addresses.

7 High Speed Mezzanine Card (HSMC) Connector
The connector used in HSMC applications is a custom version of the 0.5mm-pitch QTH-DP
and mating QSH-DP series from Samtec, Inc. There are three “banks” in this connector. Bank
1 will have every third pin removed as is done in the QSH-DP/QTH-DP series. Bank 2 and
Bank 3 have all of the pins populated as done in the QSH/QTH series. The default mating
connector is the ASP-122952-02. The ASP-122952-01 connector can plug directly into hosts
with QSH-060-01-L-D-DP or QSH-060-01-L-D connectors with the –DP version having slightly
better signal integrity.
7.1 HSMC Connector Pin out Table
Table 4 shows for every pin of the HSMC connector on the board and the corresponding PHY
signal. The signal suffix "_0" indicates PHY1 and "_1" indicates PHY2. Unused pins are left blank.

10 Pin out for Altera Cyclone-III Starter Kit Board
The following table shows the pin out for the HSMC connectors available on the Cyclone-III
Starter Kit development board.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The Cyclone-III Starter Kit Boards implements a 2.5V I/O interface to
HSMC. Make sure to enable voltage overdrive on the Cyclone-III inputs to support the 3.3V
input voltage for all pins coming from the PHY (see Quartus-II Device & Pin/ Pin Placement
options setting)
