Hi,
We have made the schematic as per the attached arrangement, please review the configuration with the controller, and share the feedback on the clock and crystal used .
Also suggest any reference document for the maser and slave mode application

Hi Rishav,
Please let me provide the feedback on the schematic by Tuesday next week.
Here are some documents on RMII https://www.ti.com/lit/an/snla076a/snla076a.pdf https://www.ti.com/lit/an/snla101a/snla101a.pdf

Thanks for your response and we will wait for your inputs. Same time just to be more specific on our queries with this, here I add below few questions
- Common clock source we have used (50MHz oscillator 'ASE-50.000MHZ-LR-T' from Abracon) to feed PHY XI pin as well as microcontroller's 'ETH_CLK'. Please suggest if there is any issue / specific thing to be taken care with this arrangement.
- For 'RST_N' we have assigned microcontroller's dedicated pin can operate in GPIO mode incase need to reset the PHY. Hope this is OK
- Does TI offer any support / share firmware example routine which we can easily implement in our host microcontroller to manage/configure this PHY?
Hi Rishav,
I will check with my team if there is a sample linux code which we can share with you.

Hi Rishav,
You can find the sample linux code here https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/net/phy/dp83822.c

Hi Gokul,
Just follow up on hardware and other queries. Mention code driver noted well and will refer
Hi Gokul,
Request you to please answer our Hardware queries ASAP so that we can accommodate the changes if any in our design.
Thanks,
Rishav
Hi Rishav,
PFA, the schematic with annotated comments. The schematic mostly looks good.

Also, Please respond to the queries before we freeze the hardware

Hi Rishav,
When using 50MHz common clock, make sure that the PHY is configured to RMII Slave through straps.
Please make sure that the parameters of RMII Slave timing and Input Clock Tolerance (50MHz) in the section 6.6 of the datasheet are met.
