KSZ8463ML/RL/FML/FRL
1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 General Terms and Conditions
The following is list of the general terms used throughout this document:
BIU - Bus Interface Unit The host interface function that performs code conversion, buffering,
and the like required for communications to and from a network.
BPDU - Bridge Protocol Data Unit A packet containing ports, addresses, etc. to make sure data being
passed through a bridged network arrives at its proper destination.
CMOS - Complementary Metal Oxide
Semiconductor A common semiconductor manufacturing technique in which positive
and negative types of transistors are combined to form a current gate
that in turn forms an effective means of controlling electrical current
through a chip.
CRC - Cyclic Redundancy Check A common technique for detecting data transmission errors. CRC for
Ethernet is 32 bits long.
Cut-Through Switch A switch typically processes received packets by reading in the full
packet (storing), then processing the packet to determine where it
needs to go, then forwarding it. A cut-through switch simply reads in
the first bit of an incoming packet and forwards the packet. Cut-
through switches do not store the packet.
DA - Destination Address The address to send packets.
EMI - Electro-Magnetic Interference A naturally occurring phenomena when the electromagnetic field of
one device disrupts, impedes or degrades the electromagnetic field
of another device by coming into proximity with it. In computer tech-
nology, computer devices are susceptible to EMI because electro-
magnetic fields are a byproduct of passing electricity through a wire.
Data lines that have not been properly shielded are susceptible to
data corruption by EMI.
FCS - Frame Check Sequence See CRC.
FID - Frame or Filter ID Specifies the frame identifier. Alternately is the filter identifier.
GPIO - General Purpose Inp ut/Output General Purpose Input/Output pins are signal pins that can be con-
trolled or monitored by hardware and software to perform specific
tasks.
IGMP - Internet Group Management
Protocol The protocol defined by RFC 1112 for IP multicast transmissions.
IPG - Inter-Packet Gap A time delay between successive data packets mandated by the net-
work standard for protocol reasons. In Ethernet, the medium has to
be "silent" (i.e., no data transfer) for a short period of time before a
node can consider the network idle and start to transmit. IPG is used
to correct timing differences between a transmitter and receiver.
During the IPG, no data is transferred, and information in the gap can
be discarded or additions inserted without impact on data integrity.
ISA - Industry Standard Architecture A bus architecture used in the IBM PC/XT and PC/AT.
ISI - Inter-Symbol Interference The disruption of transmitted code caused by adjacent pulses affect-
ing or interfering with each other.
Jumbo Packet A packet larger than the standard Ethernet packet (1500 bytes).
Large packet sizes allow for more efficient use of bandwidth, lower
overhead, less processing, etc.
MAC - Media Access Controller A functional block responsible for implementing the media access
control layer which is a sub layer of the data link layer.
MDI - Medium Dependent Interface An Ethernet port connection that allows network hubs or switches to
connect to other hubs or switches without a null-modem, or cross-
over, cable. MDI provides the standard interface to a particular media
(copper or fiber) and is therefore “media dependent”.
KSZ8463ML/RL/FML/FRL
DS00002642A-page 6 2018 Microchip Technology Inc.
MDI-X - Medium Dependent Interface
Crossover An Ethernet port connection that allows networked end stations (i.e.,
PCs or workstations) to connect to each other using a null-modem, or
crossover, cable. For 10/100 full-duplex networks, an end point (such
as a computer) and a switch are wired so that each transmitter con-
nects to the far end receiver. When connecting two computers
together, a cable that crosses the TX and RX is required to do this.
With auto MDI-X, the PHY senses the correct TX and RX roles, elim-
inating any cable confusion.
MIB - Management Information Base The MIB comprises the management portion of network devices.
This can include things like monitoring traffic levels and faults (statis-
tical), and can also change operating parameters in network nodes
(static forwarding addresses).
MII - Media Independent Interface The MII accesses PHY registers as defined in the IEEE 802.3 speci-
fication.
NIC - Network Interface Card An expansion board inserted into a computer to allow it to be con-
nected to a network. Most NICs are designed for a particular type of
network, protocol, and media, although some can serve multiple net-
works.
NPVID - Non-Port VLAN ID The port VLAN ID value is used as a VLAN reference.
NRZ - Non-Return to Zero A type of signal data encoding whereby the signal does not return to
a zero state in between bits.
PHY A device or functional block which performs the physical layer inter-
face function in a network.
PLL - Phase-Locked Loop An electronic circuit that controls an oscillator so that it maintains a
constant phase angle (i.e., lock) on the frequency of an input, or ref-
erence, signal. A PLL ensures that a communication signal is locked
on a specific frequency and can also be used to generate, modulate,
and demodulate a signal and divide a frequency.
PTP - Precision Time Protocol A protocol, IEEE 1588 as applied to this device, for synchronizing the
clocks of devices attached to a specific network.
SA - Source Address The address from which information has been sent.
TDR - Time Domain Reflectometry TDR is used to pinpoint flaws and problems in underground and
aerial wire, cabling, and fiber optics. They send a signal down the
conductor and measure the time it takes for the signal, or part of the
signal, to return.
TSU - time stamp Input Unit The functional block which captures signals on the GPIO pins and
assigns a time to the specific event.
TOU - Trigger Output Unit The functional block which generates user configured waveforms on
a specified GPIO pin at a specific trigger time.
UTP - Unshielded Twisted Pair Commonly a cable containing four twisted pairs of wires. The wires
are twisted in such a manner as to cancel electrical interference gen-
erated in each wire, therefore shielding is not required.
VLAN - Virtual Local Area Network A configuration of computers that acts as if all computers are con-
nected by the same physical network but which may be located virtu-
ally anywhere.
BIU - Bus Interface Unit The host interface function that performs code conversion, buffering,
and the like required for communications to and from a network.

Full-Chip Power-Down
Active-Low (Low = Power-down; High or floating = Normal operation).
While this pin is asserted low, all I/O pins will be tri-stated. All registers will be
set to their default state. While this pin is asserted, power consumption will be
minimal. When the pin is de-asserted, power consumption will climb to nomi-
nal and the device will be in the same state as having been reset by the reset
pin (RSTN, pin 63).
18 X1 I 25 MHz Crystal or Oscillator Clock Connection
Pins (X1, X2) connect to a crystal. If an oscillator is used, X1 connects to a
VDD_IO voltage tolerant oscillator and X2 is a no connect. This clock require-
ment is ±50 ppm.
The KSZ8463RL has the option to use REFCLK_I (50 MHz) as its primary
clock input instead of X1 and X2. This is determined by the state of pin 41
(SPI_DO) at power-up/reset time. See Table 2-2 for details. (Applies to the
KSZ8463RL/FRL devices only)
19 X2 O
20 DGND GND Digital ground.

KSZ8463ML/RL/FML/FRL
3.0 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The KSZ8463 is a highly-integrated networking device that incorporates a Layer-2 switch, two 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX
physical layer transceivers (PHYs) and associated MAC units, one MII/RMII interface on a third accessible MAC unit,
and contains key IEEE 1588 precision time protocol (PTP) features.
The KSZ8463 operates in a managed mode. In managed mode, a host processor can access and control all PHY,
Switch, MAC, and IEEE 1588 related registers in the KSZ8463 via the high-speed SPI bus, or partial control via the MIIM
(MDC/MDIO) interface.
Physical signal transmission and reception are enhanced through the use of analog circuits in the PHY that make the
design more efficient and allow for low power consumption. Both power management and Energy Efficient Ethernet
(EEE) are designed to save more power while the device is in idle state.
The KSZ8463 is fully compliant to IEEE802.3u standards.
3.1 Physical (PHY) Block
3.1.1 100BASE-TX TRANSMIT
The 100BASE-TX transmit function performs parallel-to-serial conversion, 4B/5B coding, scrambling, NRZ-to-NRZI con-
version, and MLT3 encoding and transmission.
The circuitry starts with a parallel-to-serial conversion, which converts the MII data from the MAC into a 125 MHz serial
bit stream. The data and control stream is then converted into 4B/5B coding, followed by a scrambler. The serialized
data is further converted from NRZ-to-NRZI format, and then transmitted in MLT3 current output. An external 6.49 k
(1%) resistor for the 1:1 transformer ratio sets the output current.
The output signal has a typical rise/fall time of 4 ns and complies with the ANSI TP-PMD standard regarding amplitude
balance, overshoot, and timing jitter. The wave-shaped 10BASE-T output driver is also incorporated into the 100BASE-
TX driver.
3.1.2 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 cable length, the equalizer has to adjust its
characteristics to optimize performance. In this design, the variable equalizer makes an initial estimation based on com-
parisons of incoming signal strength against some known cable characteristics, and then tunes itself for optimization.
This is an ongoing process and self-adjusts against environmental changes such as temperature variations.
Next, the equalized signal goes through a DC restoration and data conversion block. The DC restoration circuit is used
to compensate for the effect of baseline wander and to 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 125 MHz clock from the edges of the NRZI signal. This recovered clock is then
used to convert the NRZI signal into the NRZ format. This signal is sent through the de-scrambler followed by the 4B/
5B decoder. Finally, the NRZ serial data is converted to an MII format and provided as the input data to the MAC.
3.1.3 SCRAMBLER/DE-SCRAMBLER (100BASE-TX ONLY)
The purpose of the scrambler is to spread the power spectrum of the signal to reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI)
and baseline wander.
Transmitted data is scrambled through the use of an 11-bit wide linear feedback shift register (LFSR). The scrambler
generates a 2047-bit non-repetitive sequence. Then the receiver de-scrambles the incoming data stream using the
same sequence as at the transmitter.
3.1.4 PLL CLOCK SYNTHESIZER (RECOVERY)
The device incorporates an internal PLL clock synthesizer for data recovery as well as for generating various clocks
used in the device. Refer to the Device Clocks section for details of this area.
3.1.5 100BASE-FX OPERATION
Fiber Mode is available only on the KSZ8463FML and KSZ8463FRL devices.
KSZ8463ML/RL/FML/FRL
DS00002642A-page 18 2018 Microchip Technology Inc.
100BASE-FX operation is similar to 100BASE-TX operation except that the scrambler/de-scrambler and MLT3 encoder/
decoder are bypassed on transmission and reception. In this fiber mode, the auto-negotiation feature is bypassed and
auto MDI/MDIX is disabled since there is no standard that supports fiber auto-negotiation and auto MDI/MDIX mode.
The fiber port must be forced to either full-duplex or half-duplex mode.
All KSZ8463 devices are in copper mode (10BASE-T/100BASE-TX) when reset or powered on. Fiber mode is enabled
by clearing bits [7:6] in the CFGR register (0x0D8-0x0D9). Each port is individually configurable. Bit[13] in the DSP_CN-
TRL_6 register (0x734-0x735) should also be cleared if either (or both) ports are set to fiber mode.
3.1.6 100BASE-FX SIGNAL DETECTION
In 100BASE-FX operation, the fiber signal detect inputs FXSD1 and FXSD2 are usually connected to the signal detect
(SD) output pin of the fiber transceiver. When FXSD is low, no fiber signal is detected and a far-end fault (FEF) is gen-
erated. When FXSD is high, the fiber signal is detected. To ensure proper operation, a resistive voltage divider is rec-
ommended to adjust the fiber transceiver SD output voltage swing to match the FXSD pin’s input voltage threshold.
Alternatively, the user may choose not to implement the FEF feature. In this case, the FXSD input pin is tied high to
force 100BASE-FX mode.
In copper mode, and on the KSZ8463ML and KSZ8463RL, the FXSD pins are unused and should be pulled low.
3.1.7 100BASE-FX FAR-END FAULT
A Far-End Fault (FEF) occurs when the signal detection is logically false on the receive side of the fiber transceiver. The
KSZ8463FML/FRL detects an FEF when its FXSD input is below the fiber signal detect threshold. When an FEF is
detected, the KSZ8463FML/FRL signals its fiber link partner that a FEF has occurred by sending 84 1’s followed by a
zero in the idle period between frames. By default, FEF is enabled. FEF can be disabled through register setting in
P1CR4[12] and P2CR4[12].
3.1.8 10BASE-T TRANSMIT
The 10BASE-T driver is incorporated with the 100BASE-TX driver to allow for transmission using the same magnetics.
They are internally wave-shaped and pre-emphasized into outputs with typical 2.3V amplitude. The harmonic contents
are at least 27 dB below the fundamental frequency when driven by an all-ones Manchester-encoded signal.
3.1.9 10BASE-T RECEIVE
On the receive side, input buffers and level detecting squelch circuits are employed. A differential input receiver circuit
and a phase-locked loop (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 to prevent noise at the RXP1 or RXM1 input from falsely triggering
the decoder. When the input exceeds the squelch limit, the PLL locks onto the incoming signal and the KSZ8463
decodes a data frame. The receiver clock is maintained active during idle periods in between data reception.
3.1.10 MDI/MDI-X AUTO CROSSOVER
To eliminate the need for crossover cables between similar devices, the KSZ8463 supports HP-Auto MDI/MDI-X and
IEEE 802.3u standard MDI/MDI-X auto crossover. HP-Auto MDI/MDI-X is the default.
The auto-sense function detects remote transmit and receive pairs and correctly assigns the transmit and receive pairs
for the KSZ8463. This feature is extremely useful when end users are unaware of cable types in addition to saving on
an additional uplink configuration connection. The auto-crossover feature can be disabled through the port control reg-
isters. The IEEE 802.3u standard MDI and MDI-X definitions are in Tabl e 3-1 .

3.1.12 CROSSOVER CABLE
A crossover cable connects an MDI device to another MDI device, or an MDI-X device to another MDI-X device.
Figure 3-2 shows a typical crossover cable connection between two chips or hubs (two MDI-X devices).
3.1.13 AUTO-NEGOTIATION
The KSZ8463 conforms to the auto-negotiation protocol as described by IEEE 802.3. It allows each port to operate at
either 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX. 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 and
then compare their own capabilities with those they received from their link partners. The highest speed and duplex set-
ting that is common to the two link partners is selected as the mode of operation. Auto-negotiation is also used to nego-
tiate support for Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE). Auto-negotiation is only supported on ports in copper mode, not fiber
mode.
The following list shows the speed and duplex operation mode from highest to lowest.
Priority 1: 100BASE-TX, full-duplex
Priority 2: 100BASE-TX, half-duplex
Priority 3: 10BASE-T, full-duplex
Priority 4: 10BASE-T, half-duplex
If auto-negotiation is not supported or the link partner to the KSZ8463 is forced to bypass auto-negotiation, the mode is
automatically 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 auto-negotiation link up process is shown in the following flow chart.

3.1.14 LINKMD® CABLE DIAGNOSTICS
The KSZ8463 LinkMD uses time domain reflectometry (TDR) to analyze the cabling plant for common cabling problems
such as open circuits, short circuits, and impedance mismatches.
LinkMD works by sending a pulse of known amplitude and duration down the MDI and MDI-X pairs and then analyzes
the shape of the reflected signal. Timing the pulse duration gives an indication of the distance to the cabling fault with a
maximum distance of 200m and an accuracy of ±2m. Internal circuitry displays the TDR information in a user-readable
digital format in register P1SCSLMD[8:0] or P2SCSLMD[8:0].
Cable diagnostics are only valid for copper connections. Fiber-optic operation is not supported.
3.1.14.1 Access
LinkMD is initiated by accessing register P1SCSLMD (0x07C) or P2SCSLMD (0x094), the PHY special control/status
and LinkMD register.

3.1.14.2 Usage
Before initiating LinkMD, the value 0x8008 must be written to the ANA_CNTRL_3 Register (0x74C – 0x74D). This needs
to be done once (after power-n reset), but does not need to be repeated for each initiation of LinkMD. Auto-MDIX must
also be disabled before using LinkMD. To disable Auto-MDIX, write a ‘1’ to P1CR4[10] or P2CR4[10] to enable manual
control over the pair used to transmit the LinkMD pulse. The self-clearing cable diagnostic test enable bit,
P1SCSLMD[12] or P2SCSLMD[12], is set to ‘1’ to start the test on this pair.
When bit P1SCSLMD[12] or P2SCSLMD[12] returns to ‘0’, the test is completed. The test result is returned in bits
P1SCSLMD[14:13] or P2SCSLMD[14:13] and the distance is returned in bits P1SCSLMD[8:0] or P2SCSLMD[8:0]. The
cable diagnostic test results are as follows:
00 = Valid test, normal condition
01 = Valid test, open circuit in cable
10 = Valid test, short-circuit in cable
11 = Invalid test, LinkMD® failed
If P1SCSLMD[14:13] or P2SCSLMD[14:13] is “11”, this indicates an invalid test. This occurs when the KSZ8463 is
unable to shut down the link partner. In this instance, the test is not run, because it is not possible for the KSZ8463 to
determine if the detected signal is a reflection of the signal generated or a signal from another source.
Cable distance can be approximated by utilizing the following formula:
P1SCSLMD[8:0] x 0.4m for port 1 cable distance
P2SCSLMD[8:0] x 0.4m for port 2 cable distance
This constant (0.4m) may be calibrated for different cabling conditions, including cables with a velocity of propagation
that varies significantly from the norm.
3.1.15 ON-CHIP TERMINATION RESISTORS
Using the KSZ8463 reduces board cost and simplifies board layout by using on-chip termination resistors for the RX/
TX differential pairs, eliminating the need for external termination resistors in copper mode. The internal chip termination
and biasing provides significant power savings when compared with using external biasing and termination resistors.
3.1.16 LOOPBACK SUPPORT
The KSZ8463 provides two loopback modes. One is near-end (remote) loopback to support remote diagnosing of fail-
ures on line side, and the other is far-end loopback to support local diagnosing of failures through all blocks of the device.
In loopback mode, the speed of the PHY port will be set to 100BASE-TX full-duplex mode.
3.1.16.1 Far-End Loopback
Far-end loopback is conducted between the KSZ8463’s two PHY ports. The loopback path starts at the “originating”
PHY port’s receive inputs (RXP/RXM), wraps around at the “loopback” PHY port’s PMD/PMA (Physical Media Depen-
dent/Physical Media Attachment), and ends at the “Originating” PHY port’s transmit outputs (TXP/TXM).
Bit[8] of registers P1CR4 and P2CR4 is used to enable far-end loopback for ports 1 and 2, respectively. As an alterna-
tive, bit[14] of registers P1MBCR and P2MBCR can be used to enable far-end loopback. The far-end loopback path is
illustrated in Figure 3-4.
3.1.16.2 Near-End (Remote) Loopback
Near-end (remote) loopback is conducted at either PHY port 1 or PHY port 2 of the KSZ8463. The loopback path starts
at the PHY port’s receive inputs (RXPx/RXMx), wraps around at the same PHY port’s PMD/PMA, and ends at the same
PHY port’s transmit outputs (TXPx/TXMx). Bit[1] of registers P1PHYCTRL and P2PHYCTRL is used to enable near-end
loopback for ports 1 and 2, respectively. As an alternative, bit[9] of registers P1SCSLMD and P2SCSLMD can be used
to enable near-end loopback. The near-end loopback paths for port 1 and port 2 are illustrated in Figure 3-4.

3.2 Media Access Controller (MAC) Block
3.2.1 MAC OPERATION
The KSZ8463 strictly abides by IEEE 802.3 standards to maximize compatibility. Additionally, there is an added MAC
filtering function to filter unicast packets. The MAC filtering function is useful in applications such as VoIP where restrict-
ing certain packets reduces congestion and thus improves performance.
3.2.2 ADDRESS LOOKUP
The internal Dynamic MAC Address lookup table stores MAC addresses and their associated information. It contains a
1K entry unicast address learning table plus switching information.
The KSZ8463 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 they
can learn.
3.2.3 LEARNING
The internal lookup engine updates the Dynamic MAC Address table with a new entry if the following conditions are met:
The received packet's source address (SA) does not exist in the lookup table.
The received packet has no receiving errors, and the packet size is of legal length.
The lookup engine inserts the qualified SA into the table, along with the port number and time stamp. If the table is full,
the oldest entry of the table is deleted to make room for the new entry.
3.2.4 MIGRATION
The internal lookup engine also monitors whether a station has moved. If a station has moved, it updates the table
accordingly. Migration happens when the following conditions are met:
The received packet's SA is in the table but the associated source port information is different.
The received packet has no receiving errors, and the packet size is of legal length.

The lookup engine updates the existing record in the table with the new source port information.
3.2.5 AGING
The lookup engine updates 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 removes the record
from the table. The lookup engine constantly performs the aging process and continuously removes aging records. The
aging period is about 300 seconds (±75 seconds). This feature can be enabled or disabled through global register
SGCR1[10].
3.2.6 FORWARDING
The KSZ8463 forwards packets using the algorithm that is depicted in the following flowcharts. Figure 3-5 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 VLAN processes to come up with “port-to-forward 2” (PTF2), as shown in
Figure 3-6. The packet is sent to PTF2.
The KSZ8463 will not forward the following packets:
Error packets: These include framing errors, frame check sequence (FCS) errors, alignment errors, and illegal
size packet errors.
IEEE802.3x PAUSE frames: KSZ8463 intercepts these packets and performs full duplex flow control accordingly.
"Local" packets: Based on destination address (DA) lookup. If the destination port from the lookup table matches the
port from which the packet originated, the packet is defined as "local."

3.2.7 INTER-PACKET GAP (IPG)
If a frame is successfully transmitted, then the minimum 96-bit time for IPG is measured between two consecutive pack-
ets. If the current packet is experiencing collisions, the minimum 96-bit time for IPG is measured from carrier sense
(CRS) to the next transmit packet.
3.2.8 BACK-OFF ALGORITHM
The KSZ8463 implements the IEEE standard 802.3 binary exponential back-off algorithm in half-duplex mode. After 16
collisions, the packet is dropped.
3.2.9 LATE COLLISION
If a transmit packet experiences collisions after 512 bit times of the transmission, the packet is dropped.
3.2.10 LEGAL PACKET SIZE
The KSZ8463 discards packets less than 64 bytes and can be programmed to accept packet sizes up to 1536 bytes in
SGCR2[1]. The KSZ8463 can also be programmed for special applications to accept packet sizes up to 2000 bytes in
SGCR1[4].
3.2.11 FLOW CONTROL
The KSZ8463 supports standard 802.3x flow control frames in both the transmit and receive directions.
In the receive direction, if a PAUSE control frame is received on any port, the KSZ8463 will not transmit the next normal
frame on that port until the timer, specified in the PAUSE control frame, expires. If another PAUSE frame is received
before the current timer expires, the timer will then update with the new value in the second PAUSE frame. During this
period (while it is flow controlled), only flow control packets from the KSZ8463 are transmitted.

In the transmit direction, the KSZ8463 has intelligent and efficient ways to determine when to invoke flow control and
send PAUSE frames. The flow control is based on availability of the system resources, including available buffers, avail-
able transmit queues and available receive queues.
The KSZ8463 issues a PAUSE frame containing the maximum pause time defined in IEEE standard 802.3x. Once the
resource is freed up, the KSZ8463 sends out another flow control frame 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
constantly activated and deactivated.
3.2.12 HALF-DUPLEX BACKPRESSURE
A half-duplex backpressure option (non-IEEE 802.3 standards) is also provided. The activation and deactivation condi-
tions are the same as in full-duplex mode. If backpressure is required, the KSZ8463 sends preambles to defer the other
stations' transmission (carrier sense deference).
To avoid jabber and excessive deference (as defined in the 802.3 standard), after a certain time, the KSZ8463 discon-
tinues the carrier sense and then raises it again quickly. This short silent time (no carrier sense) prevents other stations
from sending out packets thus keeping other stations in a carrier sense deferred state. If the port has packets to send
during a backpressure situation, the carrier sense type backpressure is interrupted and those packets are transmitted
instead. If there are no additional packets to send, carrier sense type backpressure is reactivated again until chip
resources free up. If a collision occurs, the binary exponential back-off algorithm is skipped and carrier sense is gener-
ated immediately, thus reducing the chance of further collision and carrier sense is maintained to prevent packet recep-
tion.
To ensure no packet loss in 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX half-duplex mode, the user must enable the following bits:
Aggressive back-off (bit [8] in SGCR1)
No excessive collision drop (bit [3] in SGCR2)
Backpressure flow control enable (bit [11] in P1CR2/P2CR2)
Please note that these bits are not set in default because this is not the IEEE standard.
3.2.13 BROADCAST STORM PROTECTION
The KSZ8463 has an intelligent option to protect the switch system from receiving too many broadcast packets. As the
broadcast packets are forwarded to all ports except the source port, an excessive number of switch resources (band-
width and available space in transmit queues) may be utilized. The KSZ8463 has the option to include “multicast pack-
ets” for storm control. The broadcast storm rate parameters are programmed globally, and can be enabled or disabled
on a per port basis in P1CR1[7] and P2CR1[7]. The rate is based on a 67ms interval for 100BASE-TX and a 670 ms
interval for 10BASE-T. 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 SGCR3[2:0][15:8]. The default
setting is 0x63 (99 decimal). This is equal to a rate of 1%, calculated as follows:
EQUATION 3-1:
148,800 frames/sec is based on 64-byte block of packets in 100BASE-T with 12 bytes of IPG and 8 bytes of preamble
between two packets.
3.2.14 PORT INDIVIDUAL MAC ADDRESS AND SOURCE PORT FILTERING
The KSZ8463 can provide individual MAC addresses for port 1 and port 2. They can be set at registers 0x0B0h –
0x0B5h and 0x0B6 – 0x0BB. Received packets can be filtered (dropped) if their source address matches the MAC
address of port 1 or port 2. This feature can be enabled by setting bits [11:10] in the P1CR1 or P2CR1 registers. One
example of usage is that a packet will be dropped after it completes a full round trip within a ring network.

KSZ8463ML/RL/FML/FRL
3.3 Switch Block
3.3.1 SWITCHING ENGINE
The KSZ8463 features a high-performance switching engine to move data to and from the MAC’s packet buffers. It oper-
ates in store and forward mode, while the efficient switching mechanism reduces overall latency. The switching engine
has a 32 KByte internal frame buffer. This resource is shared between all the ports. There are a total of 256 buffers avail-
able. Each buffer is sized at 128 Bytes.
3.3.2 SPANNING TREE SUPPORT
To support spanning tree, the host port 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” reg-
ister settings in registers P1CR2 and P2CR2 for ports 1 and 2, respectively. Ta bl e 3-2 shows the setting and software
actions taken for each of the five spanning tree states.
TABLE 3-2: SPANNING TREE STATES
Disable State Port Setting Software Action
The port should not for-
ward or receive any pack-
ets. Learning is disabled.
transmit enable = “0”,
receive enable = “0”,
learning disable = “1”
The processor should not send any packets to the port. The
switch may still send specific packets to the processor
(packets that match some entries in the “Static MAC Table”
with “overriding bit” set) and the processor should discard
those packets. Address learning is disabled on the port in
this state.
Blocking State Port Setting Software Action
Only packets to the proces-
sor are forwarded.
transmit enable = “0”,
receive enable = “0”,
learning disable = “1”
The processor should not send any packets to the port(s) in
this state. The processor should program the “Static MAC
Table” with the entries that it needs to receive (for example,
BPDU packets). The “overriding” bit should also be set so
that the switch will forward those specific packets to the pro-
cessor. Address learning is disabled on the port in this state.
Listening State Port Setting Software Action
Only packets to and from
the processor are for-
warded. Learning is dis-
abled.
transmit enable = “0”,
receive enable = “0”,
learning disable = “1”
The processor should program the “Static MAC Table” with
the entries that it needs to receive (for example, BPDU
packets). The “overriding” bit should be set so that the
switch will forward those specific packets to the processor.
The processor may send packets to the port(s) in this state.
Address learning is disabled on the port in this state.
Learning State Port Setting Software Action
Only packets to and from
the processor are for-
warded. Learning is
enabled.
transmit enable = “0”,
receive enable = “0”,
learning disable = “0”
The processor should program the “Static MAC Table” with
the entries that it needs to receive (for example, BPDU
packets). The “overriding” bit should be set so that the
switch will forward those specific packets to the processor.
The processor may send packets to the port(s) in this state.
Address learning is enabled on the port in this state.
Forwarding State Port Setting Software Action
Packets are forwarded and
received normally. Learn-
ing is enabled.
transmit enable = “1”,
receive enable = “1”,
learning disable = “0”
The processor programs the “Static MAC Table” with the
entries that it needs to receive (for example, BPDU pack-
ets). The “overriding” bit is set so that the switch forwards
those specific packets to the processor. The processor can
send packets to the port(s) in this state. Address learning is
enabled on the port in this state.

3.3.3 RAPID SPANNING TREE SUPPORT
There are three operational states assigned to each port for RSTP (Discarding, Learning, and Forwarding):
Discarding ports do not participate in the active topology and do not learn MAC addresses.
Discarding state: the state includes three states of the disable, blocking and listening of STP.
Port setting: transmit enable = “0”, receive enable = “0”, learning disable = “1”.
3.3.3.1 Discarding State
Software action: The host processor should not send any packets to the port. The switch may still send specific packets
to the processor (packets that match some entries in the static table with “overriding bit” set) and the processor should
discard those packets. When the port’s learning capability (learning disable = ‘1’) is disabled, setting bits [10:9] in the
SGCR8 register will rapidly flush the port related entries in the dynamic MAC table and static MAC table.
The processor is connected to port 3 via the host interface. Address learning is disabled on the port in this state.
3.3.3.2 Learning State
Ports in “learning states” learn MAC addresses, but do not forward user traffic.
Learning State: Only packets to and from the processor are forwarded. Learning is enabled.
Port setting for Learning State: transmit enable = “0”, receive enable = “0”, learning disable = “0”.
Software action: The processor should program the static MAC table with the entries that it needs to receive (e.g., BPDU
packets). The “overriding” bit should be set so that the switch will forward those specific packets to the processor. The
processor may send packets to the port(s) in this state (see the Tail Tagging Mode sub-section for details). Address
learning is enabled on the port in this state.
Ports in “forwarding states” fully participate in both data forwarding and MAC learning.
3.3.3.3 Forwarding State
Forwarding state: Packets are forwarded and received normally. Learning is enabled.
Port setting: transmit enable = “1”, receive enable = “1”, learning disable = “0”.
Software action: The processor should program the static MAC table with the entries that it needs to receive (e.g., BPDU
packets). The “overriding” bit should be set so that the switch will forward those specific packets to the processor. The
processor may send packets to the port(s) in this state (see the Tail Tagging Mode sub-section for details). Address
learning is enabled on the port in this state.
RSTP uses only one type of BPDU called RSTP BPDUs. They are similar to STP configuration BPDUs with the excep-
tion of a type field set to “version 2” for RSTP and “version 0” for STP, and a flag field carrying additional information.
3.3.4 TAIL TAGGING MODE
The tail tag is only seen and used by the port 3 host interface, which should be connected to a processor. It is an effective
way to retrieve the ingress port information for spanning tree protocol, IGMP snooping, and other applications. Bits [1:0]
in the one byte tail tagging are used to indicate the source/destination port in port 3. Bits[3:2] are used for priority setting
of the ingress frame in port 3. Other bits are not used. The tail tag feature is enabled by setting bit[8] in the SGCR8
register.

KSZ8463ML/RL/FML/FRL
3.3.5 IGMP SUPPORT
For Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) support in Layer 2, the KSZ8463 provides two components:
3.3.5.1 IGMP Snooping
The KSZ8463 traps IGMP packets and forwards them only to the processor (host port). 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.
3.3.5.2 Multicast Address Insertion in the Static MAC Table
Once the multicast address is programmed in the Static MAC Address Table, the multicast session is trimmed to the
subscribed ports, instead of broadcasting to all ports.
To enable IGMP support, set bit[14] to ‘1’ in the SGCR2 register. Also, Tail Tagging Mode needs to be enabled, so that
the processor knows which port the IGMP packet was received on. This is achieved by setting bit [8] to ‘1’ in the SGCR8
register.
3.3.6 IPV6 MLD SNOOPING
The KSZ8463 traps IPv6 Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD) packets and forwards them only to the processor (host
port). MLD snooping is controlled by SGCR2, bit[13] (MLD snooping enable) and SGCR2 bit[12] (MLD option).
Setting SGCR2 bit[13] causes the KSZ8463 to trap packets that meet all of the following conditions:
IPv6 multicast packets
Hop count limit = “1”
IPv6 next header = “1”or “58” (or = “0” with hop-by-hop next header = “1” or “58”)
If SGCR2[12] = “1”, IPv6 next header = “43”, “44”, “50”, “51”, or “60” (or = “0” with hop-by-hop next header = “43”,
“44”, “50”, “51”, or “60”)
3.3.7 PORT MIRRORING SUPPORT
KSZ8463 supports port mirroring comprehensively as:
3.3.7.1 “Receive Only” Mirror-on-a-Port
All the packets received on the port are mirrored on the sniffer port. For example, 1 is programmed to be “receive sniff”
and the host port is programmed to be the “sniffer”. A packet received on port 1 is destined to port 2 after the internal
lookup. The KSZ8463 forwards the packet to both port 2 and the host port. The KSZ8463 can optionally even forward
“bad” received packets to the “sniffer port”.

DS00002642A-page 30 2018 Microchip Technology Inc.
3.3.7.2 “Transmit Only” Mirror-on-a-Port
All the packets transmitted on the port are mirrored on the sniffer port. For example, port 1 is programmed to be “transmit
sniff” and the host port is programmed to be the “sniffer port”. A packet received on port 2 is destined to port 1 after the
internal lookup. The KSZ8463 forwards the packet to both port 1 and the host port.
3.3.7.3 “Receive and Transmit” Mirror-on-Two-Ports
All the packets received on port A and transmitted on port B are mirrored on the sniffer port. To turn on the “AND” feature,
set register SGCR2, bit 8 to “1”. For example, port 1 is programmed to be “receive sniff”, port 2 is programmed to be
“transmit sniff”, and the host port is programmed to be the “sniffer port”. A packet received on port 1 is destined to port
2 after the internal lookup. The KSZ8463 forwards the packet to both port 2 and the host port.
Multiple ports can be selected as “receive sniff” or “transmit sniff”. In addition, any port can be selected as the “sniffer
port”. All these per port features can be selected through registers P1CR2, P2CR2, and P3CR2 for ports 1, 2, and the
host port, respectively.
3.3.7.4 IEEE 802.1Q VLAN Support
The KSZ8463 supports 16 active VLANs out of the 4096 possible VLANs specified in the IEEE 802.1Q specification.
KSZ8463 provides a 16-entry 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 is dropped and its address is not 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 (see Table 3-4 and Table 5).
Advanced VLAN features are also supported in the KSZ8463, such as “VLAN ingress filtering” and “discard non PVID”
defined in bits [14:13] of P1CR2, P2CR2 and P3CR2 registers. These features can be controlled on per port basis.
3.3.8 QUALITY-OF-SERVICE (QOS) PRIORITY SUPPORT
The KSZ8463 provides quality-of-service (QoS) for applications such as VoIP and video conferencing. The KSZ8463
offer 1, 2, and 4 priority queues option per port. This is controlled by bit[0] and bit[8] in P1CR1, P2CR1 and P3CR1 reg-
isters as shown below:
Bit[0], bit[8] = “00” egress port is a single output queue as default.

KSZ8463ML/RL/FML/FRL
Bit[0], bit[8] = “01” egress port can be split into two priority transmit queues. (Q0 and Q1)
Bit[0], bit[8] = “10” egress port can be split into four priority transmit queues. (Q0, Q1, Q2 and Q3)
The four priority transmit queues is a new feature in the KSZ8463. Queue 3 is the highest priority queue and Queue 0
is the lowest priority queue. If a port's transmit queue is not split, high priority and low priority packets have equal priority
in the transmit queue.
There is an additional option for every port via bits[15,7] in the P1TXQRCR1, P1TXQRCR2, P2TXQRCR1, P2TXQR-
CR2, P3TXQRCR1, and P3TXQRCR2 Registers to select either always to deliver high priority packets first or use
weighted fair queuing for the four priority queues scale by 8:4:2:1.
3.3.9 PORT-BASED PRIORITY
With port-based priority, each ingress port is individually classified as a specific priority level. All packets received at the
high-priority receiving port are marked as high priority and are sent to the high-priority transmit queue if the correspond-
ing transmit queue is split. bits[4:3] of registers P1CR1, P2CR1, and P3CR1 are used to enable port-based priority for
ports 1, 2, and the host port, respectively.
3.3.10 802.1P-BASED PRIORITY
For 802.1p-based priority, the KSZ8463 examines the ingress (incoming) packets to determine whether they are tagged.
If tagged, the 3-bit priority field in the VLAN tag is retrieved and used to look up the “priority mapping” value, as specified
by the register SGCR6. The “priority mapping” value is programmable.
Figure 3-8 illustrates how the 802.1p priority field is embedded in the 802.1Q VLAN tag.
802.1p-based priority is enabled by bit[5] of registers P1CR1, P2CR1, and P3CR1 for ports 1, 2, and the host port,
respectively.
The KSZ8463 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
referred to as the 802.1Q VLAN tag.
Tag insertion is enabled by bit[2] of registers P1CR1, P2CR1, and P3CR1 for ports 1, 2, and the host port, respectively.
At the egress port, untagged packets are tagged with the ingress port’s default tag. The default tags are programmed
in register sets P1VIDCR, P2VIDCR, and P3VIDCR for ports 1, 2, and the host port, respectively. The KSZ8463 does
not add tags to already tagged packets.
Tag removal is enabled by bit[1] of registers P1CR1, P2CR1, and P3CR1 for ports 1, 2, and the host port, respectively.
At the egress port, tagged packets will have their 802.1Q VLAN tags removed. The KSZ8463 will not modify untagged
packets.
The CRC is recalculated for both tag insertion and tag removal.

3.3.11 802.1P PRIORITY FIELD RE-MAPPING
This is a QoS feature that allows the KSZ8463 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 P1CR2, P2CR2,
and P3CR2 for ports 1, 2, and the host port, respectively.
3.3.12 DIFFSERV-BASED PRIORITY
DiffServ-based priority uses the ToS registers shown in the TOS Priority Control Registers. The ToS priority control reg-
isters implement a fully decoded, 128-bit differentiated services code point (DSCP) register to determine packet priority
from the 6-bit ToS field in the IP header. When the most significant 6 bits of the ToS field are fully decoded, the resultant
of the 64 possibilities is compared with the corresponding bits in the DSCP register to determine priority.
3.3.13 RATE LIMITING SUPPORT
The KSZ8463 supports hardware rate limiting from 64 Kbps to 99 Mbps (refer to Ingress or Egress Data Rate Limits),
independently on the “receive side” and on the “transmit side” as per port basis. For 10BASE-T, a rate setting above
10 Mbps means the rate is not limited. On the receive side, the data receive rate for each priority at each port can be
limited by setting up ingress rate control registers. On the transmit side, the data transmit rate for each priority queue at
each port can be limited by setting up egress rate control registers. The size of each frame has options to include min-
imum interframe gap (IFG) or preamble byte, in addition to the data field (from packet DA to FCS).
For ingress rate limiting, KSZ8463 provides options to selectively choose frames from all types, multicast, broadcast,
and flooded unicast frames. The KSZ8463 counts the data rate from those selected type of frames. Packets are dropped
at the ingress port when the data rate exceeds the specified rate limit.
For egress rate limiting, the leaky bucket algorithm is applied to each output priority queue for shaping output traffic.
Inter frame gap is stretched on a per frame base to generate smooth, non-burst egress traffic. The throughput of each
output priority queue is limited by the egress rate specified.
If any egress queue receives more traffic than the specified egress rate throughput, packets may be accumulated in the
output queue and packet memory. After the memory of the queue or the port is used up, packet dropping or flow control
will be triggered. As a result of congestion, the actual egress rate may be dominated by flow control/dropping at the
ingress end, and may be therefore slightly less than the specified egress rate.
To reduce congestion, it is a good practice to make sure the egress bandwidth exceeds the ingress bandwidth.
3.3.14 MAC ADDRESS FILTERING FUNCTION
When a packet is received, the destination MAC address is looked up in both the static and dynamic MAC address
tables. If the address is not found in either of these tables, then the destination MAC address is “unknown”. By default,
an unknown unicast packet is forwarded to all ports except the port at which it was received. An optional feature makes
it possible to specify the port or ports to which to forward unknown unicast packets. It is also possible to specify no ports,
meaning that unknown unicast packets will be discarded. This feature is enabled by setting bit[7] in SGCR7.
The unicast MAC address filtering function is useful in preventing the broadcast of unicast packets that could degrade
the quality of this port in applications such as Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP).
3.4 IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol (PTP) Block
The IEEE 1588 precision time protocol (PTP) provides a method for establishing synchronized time across nodes in an
Ethernet networking environment. The KSZ8463 implements V2 (2008) of the IEEE 1588 PTP specification.
The KSZ8463 3-port switch implements the IEEE 1588 PTP Version 2 protocol. Port 1 and port 2 can be programmed
as either end-to-end (E2E) or peer-to-peer (P2P) transparent clock (TC) ports. In addition, port 3 can be programmed
as either slave or master ordinary clock (OC) port. Ingress time stamp capture, egress time stamp recording, correction
field update with residence time and link delay, delay turn-around time insertion, egress time stamp insertion, and check-
sum update are supported. PTP frame filtering is implemented to enhance overall system performance. Delay adjust-
ments are implemented to fine tune the synchronization. Versatile event trigger outputs and time stamp capture inputs
are implemented to meet various real time application requirements through GPIO pins.
The key features of the KSZ8463 implementation are as follows:
Both one-step and two-step transparent clock (TC) operations are supported

- Upper 16 bits of the second clock not implemented due to practical values of time
2018 Microchip Technology Inc. DS00002642A-page 33
KSZ8463ML/RL/FML/FRL
Both E2E and P2P TC are supported on port 1 and port 2
Both slave and master OC are supported on port 3
PTP multicast and unicast frame are supported
Transports of PTP over IPv4/IPv6 UDP and IEEE 802.3/Ethernet are supported
Both path delay request-response and peer delay mechanism are supported
Precision time stamping of input signals on the GPIO pins
Creation and delivery of clocks, pulses, or other unique serial bit streams on the GPIO pins with respect to the pre-
cision time clock time.
IEEE 1588 defines two essential functions: The measurement of link and residence (switching) delays by using the
Delay_Req/Resp or Pdelay_Req/Resp messages, and the distribution of time information by using the Sync/Follow_Up
messages. The 1588 PTP event messages are periodically sent from the grandmaster in the network to all slave clock
devices. Link delays are measured by each slave node to all its link partners to compensate for the delay of PTP mes-
sages sent through the network.
The 1588 PTP Announce messages are periodically sent from the grandmaster(s) in the network to all slave clock
devices. This information is used by each node to select a master clock using the “best master clock” algorithm.
1588 PTP (Version 2) defines two types of messages: event and general messages. These are summarized below and
are supported by the KSZ8463:
Event Messages (an accurate time stamp is generated at egress and ingress):
Sync (from master to slave)
Delay_Req (from slave to master)
Pdelay_Req (between link partners for peer delay measurement)
Pdelay_Resp (between link partners for peer delay measurement)
General Messages:
Follow_Up (from Master to Slave)
Delay_Resp (from Master to Slave)
Pdelay_Resp_Follow_Up (between link partners for peer delay measurement)
Announce
Management
Signaling
3.4.1 IEEE 1588 PTP CLOCK TYPES
The KSZ8463 supports the following clock types:
Ordinary Clock (OC) is defined as a PTP clock with a single PTP port in a PTP domain. It may serve as a source
of time such as a master clock, or it may be a slave clock which synchronizes to another master clock.
End-to-End Transparent Clock (E2E TC) is defined as a transparent clock that supports the use of the end-to-end
delay measurement mechanism between a slave clock and the master clock. In this method, the E2E TC interme-
diate devices do not need to be synchronized to the master clock and the end slave node is directly synchronized
to the master clock. The E2E TC/SC slave intermediate devices can also be synchronized to the master clock.
Note that the transparent clock is not a real clock that can be viewed on an oscilloscope but rather it is a mecha-
nism by which delay are accounted for when transporting information across and through physical network nodes.
Peer-to-Peer Transparent Clock (P2P TC for Version 2) is defined as a transparent clock, in addition to providing
PTP event transit time information. P2P TC also provides corrections for the propagation delay between nodes
(link partners) by using Pdelay_Req (Peer Delay Request) and Pdelay_Resp (Peer Delay Response). In this
method, the P2P TC intermediate devices can be synchronized to the master clock. A transparent clock (TC) is
not part of the master-slave hierarchy. Instead, it measures the resident time which is the time taken for a PTP
message to traverse the node. The P2P TC then provides this information to the clock receiving the PTP mes-
sage. In addition, the P2P TC measures and passes on the link delay of the receiving PTP message. Note that the
transparent clock is not a real clock that can be viewed on an oscilloscope but rather it is a mechanism by which
delay are accounted for when transporting information across and through physical network nodes.
Master clock is defined as a clock which is used as the reference clock for the entire system. The KSZ8463 can
operate as a master clock if needed. However, the quality of the clock signal will be limited by the quality of the
crystal or oscillator used to clock the device.
Note that P2P and E2E TCs cannot be mixed on the same communication path.

3.4.2 IEEE 1588 PTP ONE-STEP OR TWO-STEP CLOCK OPERATION
The KSZ8463 supports either 1-step or 2-step clock operation.
One-Step Clock Operation: A PTP message (Sync) exchange that provides time information using a single event
message which eliminates the need for a Follow_Up message to be sent. This one-step operation will eliminate
the need for software to read the time stamp and to send a Follow_Up message.
Two-Step Clock Operation: A PTP messages (Sync/Follow_Up) that provides time information using the combina-
tion of an event message and a subsequent general message. The Follow_Up message carries a precise esti-
mate of the time the sync message was placed on the PTP communication path by the sending node.
3.4.3 IEEE 1588 PTP BEST MASTER CLOCK SELECTION
The IEEE 1588 PTP specification defines an algorithm based on the characteristics of the clocks and system topology
called best master clock (BMC) algorithm. BMC uses announce messages to establish the synchronization hierarchy.
The algorithm compares data from two clocks to determine the better clock. Each clock device continuously monitors
the announce messages issued by the current master and compares the dataset to itself. The software controls this
process.
3.4.4 IEEE 1588 PTP SYSTEM TIME CLOCK
The system time clock (STC) in KSZ8463 is a readable or writable time source for all IEEE 1588 PTP-related functions
and contains three counters: a 32-bit counter for seconds, a 30-bit counter for nanoseconds and a 32-bit counter for
sub-nanoseconds (units of 2-32 ns). Figure 3-9 shows the PTP Clock.
The STC is clocked (incremented by 40 ns or updated with sub-nanosecond carry info) every 40 ns by a derivative of
the 125 MHz derived clock. The 30-bit nanosecond counter will be numerically incremented by 40 ns every 40 ns. There
is another 3-bit phase counter that is designed to indicate one of the five sub-phases (0 ns, 8 ns, 16 ns, 24 ns, or 32 ns)
within the 40 ns period. This provides finer resolution for the various messages and time stamps. The overflow for the
30-bit nanosecond counter is 0x3B9ACA00 (109) and the overflow for the 32-bit sub-nanosecond counter is
0xFFFFFFFF.

KSZ8463ML/RL/FML/FRL
The system time clock does not support the upper 16-bits of the seconds field as defined by the IEEE 1588 PTP Version
2 which specifies a 48-bit seconds field. If the 32-bit seconds counter overflows, it will have to be handled by software.
Note that an overflow of the seconds field only occurs every 136 years.
The seconds value is kept track of in the PTP_RTC_SH and PTP_RTC_SL registers (0x608 – 0x60B). The nanosec-
onds value is kept track of in the PTP_RTC_NSH and PTP_RTC_NSL registers (0x604 – 0x607).
The PTP_RTC_PHASE clock register (0x60C – 0x60D) is initialized to zero whenever the local processor writes to the
PTP_RTC_NSL, PTP_RTC_NSH, PTP_RTC_SL, and PTP_RTC_SH registers.
During normal operation when the STC clock is keeping synchronized real time, and not while it is undergoing any ini-
tialization manipulation by the processor to get it close to the real time, the PTP_RTC_PHASE clock register will be reset
to zero at the beginning of the current 40 ns STC clock update interval. It will start counting at zero at the beginning of
the 40 ns period and every 8 ns it will be incremented. The information provided by the PTP_RTC_PHASE register will
increase the accuracy of the various time stamps and STC clock readings.
3.4.5 UPDATING THE SYSTEM TIME CLOCK
The KSZ8463 provides four mechanisms for updating the system time clock:
Directly Setting or Reading the Time
Step-Time Adjustment
Continuous Time Adjustment
Temporary Time Adjustment
3.4.5.1 Directly Setting or Reading the Time
Directly setting the system time clock to a value is accomplished by setting a new time in the real time clock registers
(PTP_RTC_SH/L, PTP_RTC_NSH/L and PTP_RTC_PHASE) and then setting the load PTP 1588 clock bit (PTP_-
LOAD_CLK).
Directly reading the system time clock is accomplished by setting the read PTP 1588 clock bit (PTP_READ_CLK). To
avoid lower bits overflowing during reading the system time clock, a snapshot register technique is used. The value in
the system time clock will be saved into a snapshot register by setting the PTP_READ_CLK bit in PTP_CLK_CTL, and
then subsequent reads from PTP_RTC_S, PTP_RTC_NS, and PTP_RTC_PHASE will return the system time clock
value. The CPU will add the PTP_RTC_PHASE value to PTP_RTC_S and PTP_RTC_NS to get the exact real time.
3.4.5.2 Step-Time Adjustment
The system time clock can be incremented in steps if desired. The nanosecond value (PTP_RTC_NSH/L) can be added
or subtracted when the PTP_STEP_ADJ_CLK bit is set. The value will be added to the system time clock if this action
occurs while the PTP_STEP_DIR bit = “1”. The value will be subtracted from the system time clock if this action occurs
while the PTP_STEP_DIR bit = “0”. The PTP_STEP_ADJ_CLK bit is self-clearing.
3.4.5.3 Continuous Time Adjustment
The system can be set up to perform continuous time adjustment to the 1588 PTP clock. This is the mode that is antic-
ipated to be used the most. This mode is overseen by the local processor and provides a method of periodically adjust-
ing the count of the PTP clock to match the time of the master clock as best as possible. The rate registers
(PTP_SNS_RATE_H and PTP_SNS_RATE_L) (0x610 – 0x613) are used to provide a value by which the sub-nanosec-
ond Portion of the clock is adjusted on a periodic basis. While continuous adjustment mode (PTP_CONTINU_ADJ_CLK
= “1”) is selected every 40 ns the sub-nanosecond value of the clock will be adjusted in either a positive or negative
direction as determined by the PTP_RATE_DIR bit. The value will be positively adjusted if PTP_RATE_DIR = “0” or neg-
atively adjusted if PTP_RATE_DIR = “1”. The rate adjustment allows for correction with resolution of 2-32 ns for every
40 ns reference clock cycle, and it will be added to or subtracted from the system time clock on every reference clock
cycle right after the write to PTP_SNC_RATE_L is done. To stop the continuous time adjustment, one can either set the
PTP_CONTINU_ADJ_CLK = “0” or the PTP_SNS_RATE_H/L value to zero.
3.4.5.4 Temporary Time Adjustment
This mode allows for the continuous time adjustment to take place over a specified period of time only. The period of
time is specified in the PTP_ADJ_DURA_H/L registers. This mode is enabled by setting the PTP_TEMP_ADJ_CLK bit
to one. Once the duration is reached, the increment or decrement will cease. When the temporary time adjustment is
done, the internal duration counter register (PTP_ADJ_DURA_H/L) will stay at zero, which will disable the time adjust-
ment. The local processor needs to set the PTP_TEMP_ADJ_CLK to one again to start another temporary time adjust-
ment with the reloaded value into the internal rate and duration registers. The PTP_ADJ_DURA_L register needs to be
KSZ8463ML/RL/FML/FRL
DS00002642A-page 36 2018 Microchip Technology Inc.
programmed before PTP_ADJ_DURA_H register. The PTP_ADJ_DURA_L, PTP_ADJ_DURA_H and
PTP_SNS_RATE_L registers need to be programmed before the PTP_SNS_RATE_H register. The temporary time
adjustment will start after the PTP_TEMP_ADJ_CLK bit is set to one. This bit is self-cleared when the adjustment is
completed. Software can read this bit to check whether the adjustment is still in progress.
3.4.5.5 PTP Clock Initialization
During software initialization when the device is powering up, the PTP clock needs to be initialized in preparation for
synchronizing to the master clock. The suggested order of tasks is to reset the PTP 1588 clock (RESET_PTP_CLK =
“0”), load the PTP 1588 clock (PTP_LOAD_CLK = “1”) with a value then enable the PTP 1588 clock (EN_PTP_CLK =
“1”). During the initial synchronization attempt, the system time clock may be a little far apart from the PTP master clock,
so it most likely will require a step-time adjustment to get it closer. After that, the continuous time adjustment method or
temporary time adjustment method may be the best options when the system time clock is close to being synchronized
with the master clock.
More details on the 1588 PTP system time clock controls and functions can be found in the register descriptions for
registers 0x600 to 0x617.
3.4.6 IEEE 1588 PTP MESSAGE PROCESSING
The KSZ8463 supports IEEE 1588 PTP time synchronization when 1588 PTP mode and message detection are
enabled in the PTP_MSG_CFG_1 register (0x620 – 0x621). Different operations will be applied to PTP packet process-
ing based on the setting of P2P or E2E in transparent clock mode for port 1 and port 2, master or slave in ordinary clock
mode for port 3 (host port), one-step or two-step clock mode, and if the domain checking is enabled. For the IPv4/UDP
egress packet, the checksum can be updated by either re-calculating the two-bytes or by setting it to zero. For the IPv6/
UDP egress packet, the checksum is always updated. All these 1588 PTP configuration bits are in the PTP_MSG_CF-
G_1/2 registers (0x620 – 0x623).
For a more detailed description of the 1588 PTP message processing control and function, please refer to the register
descriptions in the register map at locations 0x620 to 0x68F.
3.4.6.1 IEEE 1588 PTP Ingress Packet Processing
The KSZ8463 can detect all IEEE 802.3 Ethernet 1588 PTP packets, IPv4/UDP 1588 PTP packets, and IPv6/UDP 1588
PTP packets by enabling these features in the PTP_MSG_CFG_1 register (0x620 – 0x621). Upon detection of receiving
a 1588 PTP packet, the device will capture the receive time stamp at the time when the start-of-frame delimiter (SFD)
is detected. Adjusting the receive time stamp with the receive latency or asymmetric delay is the responsibility of the
software. The hardware only takes these values into consideration when it updates the correction field in the PTP mes-
sage header. Likewise, the software needs to adjust the transmit time stamp with the transmit latency. Both the ingress
time stamp and the ingress port number will be embedded in the reserved fields of the 1588 PTP header. The embedded
information will be used by the host to designate the destination port in the response egress packet, identify the direction
of the master port, and to calculate the link delay and offset.
The 1588 PTP packet will be discarded if the 1588 PTP domain field does not match the domain number in the PTP_DO-
MAIN_VER register (0x624 – 0x625) or if the 1588 PTP version number does not match version number (either 1 or 2)
in the PTP_DOMAIN_VER register (0x624 – 0x625). Packets with a version number of one will always be forwarded to
port 1 or port 2, and not to port 3.
The 1588 PTP packets that are not associated with packet messages in pairs (Pdelay_ Req with Pdelay_Resp, Sync
with Follow_Up, Delay_Req with Delay_Resp) can be filtered and not forwarded to port 3 if the corresponding enable
bits are set in the PTP_MSG_CFG_2 register (0x0622 – 0x623). The 1588 PTP version-1 packet will be forwarded with-
out being modified.
3.4.6.2 IEEE 1588 PTP Egress Packet Processing
The ingress time stamp, the transport type of the 1588 PTP packet, the packet type (tagged or untagged), and the type
of correction field update on the egress side are in the frame header and are accessible for modification by the egress
logic in local switch packet memory. The 1588 PTP packet will be put in the egress queue of highest priority. From the
1588 PTP frame header inside the switch packet memory, the egress logic will get the correction field update instruction.
The residence time, link delay in the PTP_P1/2_LINK_DLY registers (0x646 – 0x647 and 0x666 – 0x667) or turn-around
time might be added to the correction field depending upon the type of 1588 PTP egress packet. The 1588 PTP packet
received from port 3 (host port) has the destination port information to forward as well as the time stamp information that
will be used for updating the correction field in one-step clock operation.
This embedded information (in the reserved fields of 1588 PTP frame header) will be zeroed out before the egress
packet is sent out to conform to the 1588 PTP standard.
2018 Microchip Technology Inc. DS00002642A-page 37
KSZ8463ML/RL/FML/FRL
For one-step operation, the original time stamp will be inserted into the sync packet. The egress time stamp of the Sync
packet will be latched in the P1/2_SYNC_TS registers (0x64C – 0x64F and 0x66C – 0x66F), the egress time stamps of
Delay_Req, Pdelay_Req and Pdelay_Resp will be latched in the P1/2_XDLY_REQ_TS (0x648 – 0x64B and 0x668 –
0x6B) and P1/2_PDLY_RESP_TS registers (0x650 – 0x653 and 0x670 – 0x673). These latched egress time stamps
will generate an interrupt to the host CPU and set the interrupt status bits in the PTP_TS_IS register (0x68C – 0x68D)
if the interrupt enable is set in the PTP_TS_IE register (0x68E – 0x68F). These captured egress time stamps will be
used by the 1588 PTP software for link delay measurement, offset adjustment, and time calculation.
The transmit delay value from the port 1 or port 2 time stamp reference point to the network connection point in the
PTP_P1/2_TX_LATENCY registers (0x640 – 0x643) will be added to these value in the P1/2_SYNC_TS, P1/2_XD-
LY_REQ_TS and P1/2_PDLY_RESP_TS registers to get the egress time stamp with reference point to the network con-
nection point. For transmit Delay_Req or Pdelay_Req packets, the value in the PTP_P1/2_ASYM_COR registers
(0x644 – 0x645 and 0x664 – 0x665) will be subtracted from the correction field.
3.4.7 IEEE 1588 PTP EVENT TRIGGERING AND TIME STAMPING
An event trigger output signal can be generated when the target and activation time matches the IEEE 1588 PTP system
clock time. Likewise, an event time stamp input can be captured from an external event input signal and the correspond-
ing time on the IEEE 1588 PTP system clock will be captured.
Up to 12 GPIO pins can be configured as either output signal when trigger target time is matching IEEE 1588 PTP sys-
tem clock time or monitoring input signal for external event time stamp. All event trigger outputs are generated by com-
paring the system clock time with trigger target time continuously to make sure time synchronization is always on-going.
3.4.7.1 IEEE 1588 PTP Trigger Output
The KSZ8463 supports up to 12 event trigger units which can output to any one of the 12 GPIO pins by setting bits[3:0]
in TRIG[1:12]_CFG_1 registers. Multiple trigger units can be assigned to a single GPIO pin at the same time as logical
OR’ed function allowing generation of more complex waveforms. Also multiple trigger units can be cascaded (one Unit
only at any time) to drive a single GPIO pin to generate a long and repeatable bit sequence. Each trigger unit that is
cascaded can be any signal type (edge, pulse, periodic, register-bits, and clock output).
Each trigger unit can be programmed to generate one time rising or falling edge (toggle mode), a single positive or neg-
ative pulse of programmable width, a periodic signal of programmable width, cycle time, bit-patterns to shift out from
TRIG[1:12]_CFG_[1:8] registers, and each trigger Unit can be programmed to generate interrupt of trigger output Unit
done and status in PTP_TRIG_IE/IS registers. For each trigger Unit, the host CPU programs the desired output wave-
form, GPIO pins, target time in TRIG[1:12]_TGT_NS and TRIG[1:12]_TGT_S registers that the activity is to occur, and
enable the trigger output Unit in TRIG_EN register, then the trigger output signal will be generated on the GPIO pin when
the internal IEEE 1588 PTP system time matches the desired target time. The device can be programmed to generate
a pulse-per-second (PPS) output signal. The maximum trigger output signal frequency is up to 12.5 MHz.
For a more detailed description of the 1588 PTP event trigger output control, configuration and function, please refer to
the registers description in the register map from 0x200 to 0x397 locations.
3.4.7.2 IEEE 1588 PTP Event Time Stamp Input
External event inputs on the GPIO pins can be monitored and time stamped with the resolution of 8 ns. The external
signal event can be monitored and detected as either rising edge, falling edge, positive pulse, or negative pulse by set-
ting bits[7:6] in TS[1:12]_CFG registers. Multiple time stamp units can be cascaded or chained together to associate
with a single GPIO pin to detect a series of events. When event is detected, the time stamp will be captured in three
fields: 32-bit second field in TS[1:12]_SMPL1/2_SH/L registers, 30-bit nanosecond field in TS[1:12]_SMPL1/2_NSH/L
registers, and 3-bit phase field in TS[1:12]_SMPL1/2_SUB_NS registers. Second and nanosecond fields are updated
every 25 MHz clock cycle. The 3-bit phase field is updated every 125 MHz clock cycle and indicates one of the five 8 ns/
125 MHz clock cycles. The bit [14] in TS[1:12]_SMPL1/2_NSH registers indicates the event time stamp input is either
falling edge or rising edge.
The KSZ8463 supports up to twelve time stamp input units which can input from any one of the twelve GPIO pins by
setting bits[11:8] in TS[1:12]_CFG registers. The enable bits [11:0] in TS_EN register are used to enable the time stamp
units. The last time stamp unit (Unit 12) can support up to eight time stamps for multiple event detection and up to four
pulses can be detected. The rest of the units (units 1 through 11) have two time stamps to support single edge or pulse
detection. Pulse width can be measured by the time difference between consecutive time stamps. When an input event
is detected, one of the bits [11:0] in TS_RDY register is asserted and will generate a time stamp interrupt if the
PTP_TS_IE bit is set. The host CPU is also expected to read the time stamp status in the TS[1:12]_STATUS registers
to report the number of detected event (either rising or falling edge) counts and overflow. In single mode, it can detect
KSZ8463ML/RL/FML/FRL
DS00002642A-page 38 2018 Microchip Technology Inc.
up to fifteen events at any single Unit. In cascade mode, it can detect up to two events at units 1 through 11 or up to
eight events at Unit 12, and it can detect up to fifteen events for any unit as a tail unit. Pulses or edges can be detected
up to 25 MHz.
For more details on 1588 PTP event time stamp input control, configuration and function, please refer to the register
descriptions for locations 0x400 to 0x5FD in the register map.
3.4.7.3 IEEE 1588 PTP Event Interrupts
All IEEE 1588 PTP event trigger and time stamp interrupts are located in the PTP_TRIG_IE/PTP_TS_IE enable regis-
ters and the PTP_TRIG_IS/PTP_TS_IS status registers. These interrupts are fully maskable via their respective enable
bits and shared with other interrupts that use the INTRN interrupt pin.
These twelve event trigger output status interrupts are logical OR’ed together and connected to bit[10] in the ISR reg-
ister.
These twelve event trigger output enable interrupts are logical OR’ed together and connected to bit[10] in the IER reg-
ister.
These twelve time stamp status interrupts are logical OR’ed together with the rest of bits in this register and the logical
OR’ed output is connected to bit[12] in the ISR register.
These twelve time stamp enable interrupts are logical OR’ed together with the rest of bits in this register and the logical
OR’ed output is connected to bit[12] in the IER register.
3.4.7.4 IEEE 1588 GPIO
The KSZ8463 supports twelve GPIO pins that can be used for general I/O or can be configured to utilize the timing of
the IEEE 1588 protocol. These GPIO pins can be used for input event monitoring, outputting pulses, outputting clocks,
or outputting unique serial bit streams. The GPIO output pins can be configured to initiate their output upon the occur-
rence of a specific time which is being kept by the onboard precision time clock. Likewise, the specific time of arrival of
an input event can be captured and recorded with respect to the precision time clock. Refer to the General Purpose and
IEEE 1588 Input/Output (GPIO) section for details on the operation of the GPIO pins.
3.5 General Purpose and IEEE 1588 Input/Output (GPIO)
3.5.1 OVERVIEW
The KSZ8463 devices incorporate a set of general purpose input/output (GPIO) pins that are configurable to meet the
needs of many applications. The input and output signals on the GPIO pins can be directly controlled via a local pro-
cessor or they can be set up to work closely with the IEEE 1588 protocol to create and/or monitor precisely timed signals
which are synchronous to the precision time clock. Some GPIO pins are dedicated, while others are dual function pins.
Dual function pins are managed by the IOMXSEL register. Table 3-6 provides a convenient summary of available GPIO
resources in the KSZ8463 devices.

3.5.2 GPIO PIN FUNCTIONALITY CONTROL
The GPIO_OEN register is used to configure each GPIO as an input or an output. Each GPIO pin has a set of registers
associated with it that are configured to determine its functionality, and any relationship it has with other GPIO pins or
registers. Each GPIO pin can be configured to output a binary signal state or a serial sequence of bits. Each GPIO pin
can output a single serial bit pattern or it can be programmed to continuously loop and output the pattern until stopped.
The duration of the high and low periods within the sequential bit patterns can be programmed to meet the requirements
of the application. The output can be triggered to occur at any time by the local processor writing to the correct register
or it can be triggered by the local IEEE precision timing protocol clock being equal to an exact time. The local processor
can interrogate any GPIO pin at any time or the value of the IEEE precision time protocol clock can be captured and
recorded when the specified event occurs on any of the GPIO pins. The control and output of the GPIO pins can be
cascaded to create complex digital output sequences and waveforms. Lastly, the units can be programmed to generate
an interrupt on specific conditions.
The control structure for the twelve GPIO pins are organized into two separate units called the trigger output units (TOU)
and the time stamp input units (TSU). There are twelve TOUs and twelve TSUs which can be used with any of the GPIO
pins. There are 32 control bytes for each of the two units to control the functionality. The depth of control is summarized
in Table 3-7.
3.5.3 GPIO PIN CONTROL REGISTER LAYOUT
Most of the registers used to control the time stamp units and the trigger output units are duplicated for each GPIO pin.
There are a few registers which are associated with all the overall functionality of all the GPIO pins or only specific GPIO
pins. These are summarized in Table 3-8.

3.6 Using the GPIO Pins with the Trigger Output Units
The twelve trigger output units (TOU) can be used to generate a variety of pulses, clocks, waveforms, and data streams
at user-selectable GPIO pins. The TOUs will generate the user-specified output starting at a specific time with respect
to the IEEE 1588 precision time clock. This section provides some information on configuring the TOUs to generate
specific types of output. In the information below, the value “x” represents one of the twelve TOUs. Because this area
of the device is very flexible and powerful, please reference application note ANLAN203, KSZ84xx GPIO Pin Output
Functionality, for additional information on creating specific types of waveforms and utilizing this feature.
When using a single TOU to control multiple GPIO pins, there are several details of functionality that must be taken into
account. When switching between GPIO pins, the output value on those pins can be affected. If a TOU changes the
GPIO pin level to a high value, writing to this units configuration register to change the addressed GPIO pin to a different
one will cause the hardware to drop the level in the previous GPIO pin and set the new GPIO pin to a high value. To
prevent the second GPIO pin from going high immediately, the TOU must be reset prior to programming in a different
GPIO pin value.
3.6.1 CREATING A LOW-GOING PULSE AT A SPECIFIC TIME

Because the frequencies to be generated are based on the period of the 125 MHz clock, there are some limitations that
the user must be aware of. Certain frequencies can be created with unvarying duty cycles. However, other frequencies
may incur some variation in duty cycle. There are methods of utilizing the trigger Unit 2 clock edge output select bit (bit[7]
in of Reg. 0x248 – 0x249) and GPIO1 to control and minimize the variances.

3.6.6 CREATING COMPLEX WAVEFORMS AT A SPECIFIC TIME
Complex waveforms can be created by combining the various functions available in the trigger output units using a
method called “cascading.”
2018 Microchip Technology Inc. DS00002642A-page 45
KSZ8463ML/RL/FML/FRL
Figure 3-14 illustrates the generation of a complex waveform onto one GPIO pin. Trigger output Unit 1 (TOU1) and trig-
ger output Unit 2 (TOU2) are cascaded to produce the complex waveform. Cascading allows multiple outputs to be
sequentially output onto one GPIO pin. In Figure 3-14, the waveform created by TOU1 is output first on the selected
GPIO pin when the indicated TOU1 trigger time is reached. The value in TRIG1_CFG7 and TRIG1_CFG8 will be added
to the TOU1 trigger time and the next TOU1 output will occur at that time. Meanwhile, TOU2, will operate in the same
manner; outputting its waveform at TOU2 trigger time and then outputting again at a time TRIG2_CFG7 and
TRIG2_CFG8 later. The TRIGx_CFG7 and 8 register values must be the same for all TOUs that are cascaded together.
The number of times TOU1 and TOU2 will be output will depend on the cycle times programmed into the TRIG1_CFG6
and TRIG2_CFG6 registers. Care must be taken to select the correct values so as to avoid erroneous overlap.
Additional steps are required in setting up cascaded TOUs:
Specifying which trigger output Unit in the cascade is the last Unit called the tail unit.
The last trigger output Unit in a cascade setup should have its tail bit set to “1”.

3.7 Using the GPIO Pins with the Time Stamp Input Units
The twelve time stamp input units (TSU) can be set up to capture a variety of inputs at user selectable GPIO pins. The
current time of the precision time clock time will be captured and stored at the time in which the input event occurs. This
section provides some information on configuring the time stamp input units. In the information below, the value “x” rep-
resents one of the twelve time stamp input units. Because this area of the device is very flexible and powerful, it is
advised that you contact your Microchip representative for additional information on capturing specific types of wave-
forms and utilizing this feature.
Time Stamp Value
Each time stamp input nit can capture two sampled values of time stamps. These first two values remain until read, even
if more events occur. The time stamp value captured consists of three parts which are latched in three registers.
Sample #1, the seconds value; TSx_SMPL1_SH, TSx_SMPL1_SL
Sample #1, the nanoseconds value; TSx_SMPL1_NSH, TSx_SMPL1_NSL
Sample #1, the sub-nanoseconds value; TSx_SMPL1_SUB_NS
Sample #2, the seconds value; TSx_SMPL2_SH, TSx_SMPL2_SL
Sample #2, the nanoseconds value; TSx_SMPL2_NSH, TSx_SMPL2_NSL
Sample #2, the sub-nanoseconds value; TSx_SMPL2_SUB_NS
The actual value in TSx_SMPL1/2_SUB_NS is a binary value of 0 through 4 which indicates 0 ns, 8 ns, 16 ns, 24 ns,
or 32 ns. Note that the processor needs to add this value to the seconds and nanoseconds value to get the closest true
value of the time stamp event.
Number of Time Stamps Available
Each time stamp input unit can capture two events or two time stamps values. Note that the exception to this is TSU12.
TSU12 can capture eight events and thus has eight sample time registers (SMPL1 thru SMPL8) allowing for more robust
timing acquisition in one TSU. Note that the amount of samples for any given GPIO pin can be increased by cascading
time stamp unit. When TSUs are cascaded, the incoming events are routed to a sequentially established order of TSUs
for capture. For example, you can cascade TSU12, and TSU 1-4 to be able to capture twelve time stamps off of one
GPIO pin. Cascading is set up in the TSx_CFG registers.
Events that can be Captured
The time stamp input units can capture rising edges and falling edges. In this case, the time stamp of the event will be
captured in the Sample #1 time stamp registers. A pulse can be captured if rising edge detection is combined with falling
edge detection. In this case, one edge will be captured in the Sample #1 time stamp registers and the other edge will
be captured in the Sample #2 time stamp registers. This functionality is programmed in the TSx_CFG register for each
time stamp unit.

3.8 Device Clocks
A 25 MHz clock source on X1/X2 is required for MII operation. The RMII 50 MHz clock can either be derived from the
25 MHz X1/X2 reference, or is received from an external source. If an external 50 MHz clock is used for RMII, then a
local 25 MHz crystal or clock oscillator is not required. There are a number of pins with clock related functions on this
device. Table 3-9 summarizes those pins and the area of usage and if they are related to 25 MHz, 50 MHz, RMII, or MII

Note that the clock tree power-down control register (0x038 – 0x039): CTPDC is used to power down the clocks in var-
ious areas of the device. There are no other internal register bits which control the clock generation or usage in the
device.
3.8.1 GPIO AND IEEE 1588-RELATED CLOCKING
The GPIO and IEEE 1588-related circuits both utilize the 25 MHz clock and the derived 125 MHz clock. The tolerance
and accuracy of the 25 MHz clock source will affect the IEEE 1588 jitter and offset in a system utilizing multiple slave
devices. Therefore, the 25 MHz source should be chosen with care towards the performance of the application in mind.
Using an oscillator will generally provide better results.
3.9 Power
The KSZ8463 device requires a single 3.3V supply to operate. An internal low-voltage LDO provides the necessary low
voltage (nominal ~1.3V) to power the analog and digital logic cores. The various I/Os can be operated at 1.8V, 2.5V, and
3.3V. Tabl e 3- 1 0 illustrates the various voltage options and requirements of the device.
TX_CLK/
REFCLK_I 27 These four pins are used for the clock-
ing and configuration of the MII and
RMII interfaces.
MII:
25MHz clocks are output on TX_-
CLK and RX_CLK.
RMII:
A 50 MHz clock must be received
on REFCLK_I. This comes either
from an external source or via
external connection from REF-
CLK_O.
Refer to Tabl e 3- 1 7 for details on the
usage of these signal pins.
The SPI_DO pin (pin 41) is used to
select if a 25 MHz clock on the X1 and
X2 pins or a 50 MHz clock on the REF-
CLK_I pin will be used as the source of
all RMII clocking.
Other control bits and control pins are
used to determine other attributes of
the RMII/MII clocking scheme.

The preferred method of configuring the related low-voltage power pins when using an external low-voltage regulator is
illustrated in Figure 3-15. The number of capacitors, values of capacitors, and exact placement of components will
depend upon the specific design.
3.9.1 INTERNAL LOW VOLTAGE LDO REGULATOR
The KSZ8463 reduces board cost and simplifies board layout by integrating a low noise internal low-voltage LDO reg-
ulator to supply the nominal ~1.3V core power voltage for a single 3.3V power supply solution. If it is desired to take
advantage of an external low-voltage supply that is available, the internal low-voltage regulator can be disabled to save
power. The LDO_Off bit, bit[7] in Register 0x748 is used to enable or disable the internal low-voltage regulator. The
default state of the LDO_Off bit is “0” which enables the internal low-voltage regulator. Turning off the internal low-volt-
age regulator will require software to write a “1” to that control bit. During the time from power up to setting this bit, both
the external voltage supply and the internal regulator will be supplying power. Note that it is not necessary to turn off the
internal low-voltage regulator. No damage will occur if it is left on. However, leaving it on will result in less than optimized
power consumption.
VDD_L 40, 51 Output of internal low-voltage LDO regulator. This voltage is
available on these pins to allow connection to external capaci-
tors and ferrite beads for filtering and power integrity. These pins
must be externally connected to pins 6 and 16.
If the internal LDO regulator is turned off, these pins become
power inputs.

The internal regulator takes its power from VDD_IO, and functions best when VDD_IO is 3.3V or 2.5V. If VDD_IO is
1.8V, the output voltage will be somewhat decreased. For optimal performance, an external power supply, in place of
the internal regulator, is recommended when VDD_IO is 1.8V.
The preferred method of configuring the low-voltage related power pins for using the internal low-voltage regulator is
illustrated in Figure 3-16. The output of the internal regulator is available on pins 40 and 51 and is filtered using external
capacitors and a ferrite bead to supply power to pins 6 and 16. The number of capacitors, values of capacitors, and
exact placement of components will depend upon the specific design.
3.10 Power Management
The KSZ8463 supports enhanced power management features in low-power state with energy detection to ensure low-
power dissipation during device idle periods. There are three operation modes under the power management function
which is controlled by two bits in the power management control and wake-up event status register (PMCTRL, 0x032 –
0x033) as shown below:
PMCTRL[1:0] = “00” Normal Operation Mode
PMCTRL[1:0] = “01” Energy Detect Mode
PMCTRL[1:0] = “10” Global Soft Power-Down Mode
The Ta b l e 3 - 11 indicates all internal function blocks status under three different power-management operation modes.

KSZ8463ML/RL/FML/FRL
3.10.1 NORMAL OPERATION MODE
Normal operation mode is the power management mode entered into after device power-up or after hardware reset pin
63. It is established via bits[1:0] = “00” in the PMCTRL register. When the KSZ8463 is in normal operation mode, all PLL
clocks are running, PHYs and MACs are on, and the CPU is ready to read or write the KSZ8463 through these serial
interfaces (SPI and MIIM).
During the normal operation mode, the host CPU can change the power management mode bits[1:0] in the PMCTRL
register to transition to another desired power management mode
3.10.2 ENERGY-DETECT MODE
Energy-detect mode provides a mechanism to save more power than in normal operation mode when the KSZ8463 is
not connected to an active link partner. For example, if the cable is not present or it is connected to a powered down
partner, the KSZ8463 can automatically enter the low power state in energy detect mode. Once activity resumes after
attaching a cable or by a link partner attempting to establish a link, the KSZ8463 will automatically power-up into the
normal power state in energy detect normal power state. The energy-detect mode function is not valid in fiber mode
using the KSZ8463FML and KSZ8463FRL devices.
Energy-detect mode consists of two states, normal-power state and low-power state. While in low-power state, the
KSZ8463 reduces power consumption by disabling all circuitry except the energy detect circuitry of the receiver. Energy
detect mode is enabled by setting bits[1:0] = “01” in the PMCTRL register. When the KSZ8463 is in this mode, it will
monitor the cable energy. If there is no energy on the cable for a time longer than a pre-configured value determined by
bits[7:0] (Go-Sleep Time) in the GST register, the device will go into the low-power state. When the KSZ8463 is in low-
power state, it will keep monitoring the cable energy. Once energy is detected from the cable and is present for a time
longer than 100 ns, the KSZ8463 will enter the normal-power state.
3.10.3 GLOBAL SOFT POWER-DOWN MODE
Soft power-down mode is entered by setting bits[1:0] = “10” in PMCTRL register. When the device is in this mode, all
PLL clocks are disabled, the PHYs and the MACs are off, all internal registers value will change to default value, and
the CPU serial interface is only used to wake-up this device from the current soft power-down mode to normal operation
mode by setting bits[1:0] = “00” in the PMCTRL register.
All strapping pins are sampled to latch any new values when soft power-down is disabled.
3.10.4 ENERGY EFFICIENT ETHERNET (EEE)
Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) is implemented in the KSZ8463ML device as described in the IEEE 802.3AZ specifica-
tion for MII operations on Port 1 and Port 2. The EEE function is not available for fiber mode Ports using the
KSZ8463FML and KSZ8463FRL devices. EEE is not performed at Port 3 since that is a MAC to MAC interface and not
a MAC to PHY interface. The internal connection between the MAC and PHY blocks are performed in MII mode. The
details of the implementation are provided in the information that follows. The standards are defined around a MAC that
supports special signaling associated with EEE. EEE saves power by keeping the voltage on the Ethernet cable at
approximately 0V for as often as possible during periods of no traffic activity. This is called low-power idle (LPI) state.
However, the link will respond automatically when traffic resumes and do so in such a way as to not cause blocking or
dropping of any packets (the wake-up time for 100BASE-TX is specified to be less than 30 µs.). The transmit and
receive directions are independently controlled. Note the EEE is not specified or implemented for 10BASE-T. In
10BASE-T, the transmitter is already OFF during idle periods.
The EEE feature is enabled by default. EEE is auto-negotiated independently for each direction on a link, and is enabled
only if both nodes on a link support it. To disable EEE, clear the Next Page Enable bit(s) for the desired port(s) in the
PCSEEEC register (0x0F3) and restart auto-negotiation.
Based on the EEE specification, the energy savings from EEE occurs at the PHY level. However, the KSZ8463 device
reduces the power consumption not only in the PHY block but also in the MAC and switch blocks by shutting down any
unused clocks as much as possible when the device is at LPI state. A comprehensive LPI request on/off policy is also
built-in at the switch level to determine when to issue LPI requests and when to stop the LPI request. Some software
control options are provided in the device to terminate the LPI request in the early phase when certain events occur to
reduce the latency impact during LPI recovery. A configurable LPI recovery time register is provided at each port to spec-
ify the recovery time (25 µs at default) required for the KSZ8463 and its link partner before they are ready to transmit
and receive a packet after going back to the normal state. For details, please refer to the KSZ8463 EEE registers (0x0E0
– 0x0F7) description.
The time during which LPI mode is active is during what is called quiet time. This is shown in Figure 3-17.
KSZ8463ML/RL/FML/FRL
DS00002642A-page 52 2018 Microchip Technology Inc.
3.10.5 TRANSMIT DIRECTION CONTROL FOR MII MODE
For ports 1 and 2, low-power idle (LPI) state for the transmit direction will be entered when the internal EEE MAC signals
to its PHY to do so. The PHY will stay in the transmit LPI state as long as indicated by the MAC. The TX_CLK is not
stopped.
Even though the PHY is in LPI state, it will periodically leave the LPI state to transmit a refresh signal using specific
transmit code bits. This allows the link partner to keep track of the long-term variation of channel characteristics and
clock drift between the two partners. Approximately every 20 ms – 22 ms, the PHY will transmit a bit pattern to its link
partner of duration 200 µs – 220 µs. The refresh times are listed in Figure 3-17.
3.10.6 RECEIVE DIRECTION CONTROL FOR MII MODE
If enabled for LPI mode, upon receiving a P Code bit pattern (refresh), the PHY will enter the LPI state and signal to the
internal MAC. If the PHY receives some non-P Code bit pattern, it will signal to the MAC to return to “normal frame”
mode. The PHY can turn off the RX_CLK after nine or more clocks have occurred in the LPI state.
In the EEE-compliant environment, the internal PHYs will be monitoring and expecting the P Code (refresh) bit pattern
from its link partner that is generated approximately every 20 ms – 22 ms, with a duration of about 200 µs – 220 µs. This
allows the link partner to keep track of the long term variation of channel characteristics and clock drift between the two
partners.

3.11 Interrupt Generation on Power Management-Related Events
The various status bits associated with link change and energy detect situations are found in the PMCTRL Register
(0x032 – 0x033) bits[3:2]. The enabling of these signals to generate an interrupt are in IER (0x190 – 0x191) bits[3:2].
The actual interrupt status for these bits are located in ISR (0x192 – 0x193) bits[3:2].
3.12 Interfaces
The KSZ8463 device incorporates a number of interfaces to enable it to be designed into a standard network environ-
ment as well as a vendor unique environment. The available interfaces are summarized in Tabl e 3- 12. The details of
each usage in the table are provided in the sections which follow.
3.12.1 CONFIGURATION INTERFACE
The KSZ8463 supports a serial configuration interface, which may be either SPI or MIIM. The strapping option on pin
35 (RXD0) and pin 34 (RXD1) is used to select one of these two interfaces. This setting may be read in the serial bus
selection bits in the configuration status and serial bus mode register (0x0D8 – 0x0D9): CFGR.
3.12.2 SPI SLAVE SERIAL BUS CONFIGURATION
The KSZ8463 supports a SPI interface in slave mode (see Strapping Options). In this managed mode, an external SPI
master device (micro-controller or CPU) supplies the serial clock (SPI_SCLK), chip select (SPI_CSN), and serial input
data (SPI_DI). Serial output data (SPI_DO) is driven out by the KSZ8463. SPI operations start with the falling edge of
SPI_CSN and end with the rising edge of SPI_CSN. SPI_SCLK is expected to stay low when SPI operation is idle. A
SPI master device (external controller/CPU) has complete programming access to all KSZ8463 registers. Table 3-13
shows the SPI interface connection for the KSZ8463.
Input data on SPI_DI (MOSI) is sampled by the KSZ8463 on the rising edge of SPI_SCLK. Timing of the output data on
SPI_DO (MISO) is user-selectable by a strapping option on pin 33. The options are high-speed SPI and low-speed SPI:
High-Speed SPI Mode: SPI_DO is clocked out at the rising edge of SPI_SCLK mode. The master will typically
sample MISO data at the falling edge of SPI_SCLK, but depending on the MISO hold time requirements of the
master, rising edge sampling may be possible.
Low-Speed SPI Mode: SPI_DO is clocked out at the falling edge of SPI_SCLK, ½ cycle later than high-speed SPI
mode. The master will typically sample MISO data at the rising edge of SPI_SCLK.
The KSZ8463 supports two standard SPI commands:

Internal I/O registers write (Opcode = “1”)
As shown in Table 3-14 and Figure 3-18, there are two phases in each SPI operation. The first is the command phase,
followed by the data phase. The command phase is two bytes long for register access. The data phase is in the range
of one to four bytes long depending on the specified byte enable bits B[3:0] in command phase.
Note 3-1 In Command phase, Address A[10:2] access register location in double-word and Byte enable B[3:0]
to indicate which byte to access during read or write. In Data phase, the byte 0 is first in/out and byte
3 is last in/out during read or write.
Note 3-2 B[3:0] -> 1: enable byte; 0: disable byte. CPU can enable any one of the four bytes, lower or higher
two bytes, or all four bytes during the command phase.
Note 3-3 TA bits are “turn around” bits and “don’t care” bits.
3.12.3 SPI REGISTER ACCESS OPERATION TIMING
As shown in Figure 3-10 and Figure 3-11, illustrating the SPI internal I/O registers read and write operation timing, the
first two command byte 0/1 contain opcode (0: read command, 1: write command), A[10:2] address bits to access reg-
ister location in double words and B[3:0] Byte enable bits to indicate which data byte is available in data phase (1: byte
enable, 0: byte disable). The following is data phase either 1, 2, or 4 bytes depending on B[3:0] setting.
Figure 3-19 and Figure 3-20 show the details of the SPI bus protocol for read and write operations. Initially the master
sends a two-byte command. This command begins with a 1-bit opcode (0: read command, 1: write command). It is fol-
lowed by address bits A[10] to A[2], then four byte enable bits B[3:0], then finally two zero bits. The byte enable bits are
set to indicate which bytes will be transferred in the data phase of the SPI operation. For a two-byte operation, which is
the most common, B[3:0] = 0011. For a single byte operation, B[3:0] = 0001, and for a four-byte operation, B[3:0] = 1111.
The sequence for data transfer is least significant byte first. Then within each byte, the most significant bit goes first.

3.12.4 MII MANAGEMENT (MIIM) INTERFACE
The KSZ8463 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 KSZ8463 PHY block.
An external device with MDC/MDIO capability can read the PHY status or configure the PHY settings. Details on the
MIIM interface can be found in Clause 22.2.4.5 of the IEEE 802.3u Specification. Timing information can be found in
802.3 section 22.3.4.
The MIIM interface consists of the following:
A physical connection that uses a data signal (MDIO) and a clock signal (MDC) for communication between an
external controller and the KSZ8463 device.
A specific protocol that operates across the two signal physical connection that allows an external controller to
communicate with the internal PHY devices.
Access to a set of eight 16-bit registers, consisting of six standard MIIM registers (0x0 – 0x5) and two custom
MIIM registers (0x1D and 0x1F). Each set of registers is duplicated for each internal PHY device.
The MIIM Interface can operate up to a maximum clock speed of 5 MHz and access is limited to only the registers in
the PHY block. Ta b l e 3 - 1 5 summarizes the MII management interface frame format.

3.12.5 MEDIA INDEPENDENT INTERFACE (MII)
The media independent interface (MII) is specified in Clause 22 of the IEEE 802.3u Standard. It provides a common
interface between PHY layer and MAC layer devices. The MII provided by the KSZ8463ML and KSZ8463FML is con-
nected to the device’s third MAC on port 3. This interface is operated in PHY Mode or in MAC Mode. This is determined
by the strapping option on the RX_DV pin (pin 31) at the time of de-assertion of RSTN. The interface contains two dis-
tinct groups of signals, one for transmission and the other for reception. Table 3-16 describes the signals used by the
MII interface to connect to an external MAC or an external PHY.
The MII interface operates in either PHY mode or MAC mode. The data interface is 4-bits wide and runs at one quarter
the network bit rate; either 2.5 MHz in 10BASE-T or 25 MHz in 100BASE-TX (not encoded). Additional signals on the
transmit side indicate when data is valid or when an error occurs during transmission. Similarly, the receive side has
signals that convey when the data is valid and without physical layer errors. For half duplex operation, the COL signal
indicates if a collision has occurred during transmission.
The KSZ8463ML/FML does not provide the RX_ER signal in PHY mode operation or the TX_ER signal in MAC mode
operation. Normally, RX_ER indicates a receive error coming from the physical layer device and TX_ER indicates a
transmit error from the MAC device. Since the switch filters error frames, these MII error signals are not used by the
KSZ8463ML/FML. So, for PHY mode operation, if the device interfacing with the KSZ8463ML/FML has an RX_ER input
pin, it needs to be tied low. And, for MAC mode operation, if the device interfacing with the KSZ8463ML/FML has a
TX_ER input pin, it also needs to be tied low.
The KSZ8463ML/FML provides a bypass feature in the MII PHY mode. The TX_ER/MII_BP pin (pin 28) is used to
enable the MII bypass mode when this pin is tied to high. The MII (port 3) is shut down if TX_ER/MII_BP is set to high
in the MII PHY mode. In this case, no new ingress frames from either port 1 or port 2 will be sent out through port 3 and
only switching between port 1 and port 2 for all ingress packets will occur, and the frames for port 3 already in packet
memory will be flushed out.

3.12.6 REDUCED MEDIA INDEPENDENT INTERFACE (RMII)
The reduced media independent interface (RMII) specifies a low pin count MII. It is available only on port 3 of the
KSZ8463RL and KSZ8463FRL devices for communication with the MAC attached to that port. As with MII, RMII pro-
vides a common interface between physical layer and MAC layer devices, and has the following key characteristics:
Supports network data rates of either 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps.
Uses a single 50 MHz clock reference (provided internally or externally) for both transmit and receive data.
Uses independent 2-bit wide transmit and receive data paths.
Contains two distinct groups of signals: one for transmission and the other for reception.
The user should select one the two RMII clocking methods shown in Table 3-17. While EN_REFCLK_O (pin 23) is high,
the KSZ8463RL/FRL will output a 50 MHz clock on REFCLK_O (pin 32), which is derived from the 25 MHz crystal or
oscillator attached to the X1 and X2 inputs. In this mode, REFCLK_O must be externally connected to REFCLK_I (pin
27). While EN_REFCLK_O (pin 23) is low, the KSZ8463RL/FRL will require an external 50 MHz signal to be input to the
REFCLK_I input from an external source. In this mode, the X1 and X2 pins are not used.
The RMII interface in KSZ8463RL/FRL is connected to the device’s third MAC. It complies with the RMII specification.
Table 3-18 describes the signals used by the RMII interface. Refer to the RMII specification for full details on the signal
descriptions.
The KSZ8463RL/FRL filters error frames, and thus does not implement the RX_ER output signal. To detect error frames
from RMII PHY devices, the TX_ER input signal of the KSZ8463RL/FRL is connected to the RX_ER output signal of the
RMII PHY device. Collision detection is implemented in accordance with the RMII Specification.

In RMII mode, tie the MII signals (TXD[3:2], RXD[3:2] and TX_ER) to ground via a resistor if they are not used.
The KSZ8463RL/FRL can interface to either an RMII PHY or an RMII MAC device. The RMII MAC device allows two
KSZ8463RL/FRL devices to be connected back-to-back. Table 3-19 shows the KSZ8463RL/FRL RMII pin connections
with an external RMII PHY and an external RMII MAC, such as another KSZ8463RL/FRL device.

4.0 REGISTER DESCRIPTIONS
The KSZ8463 device has a rich set of registers available to manage the functionality of the device. Access to these
registers is via the MIIM or SPI interfaces. All of the registers are not accessible via each interface. Figure 4-1 provides
a global picture of accessibility via the various interfaces and addressing ranges from the perspective of each interface.
The registers within the linear 0x000 – 0x7FF address space are all accessible via the SPI interface by a microprocessor
or CPU attached to that buss. The mapping of the various functions within that linear address space is summarized in
Table 4-1.

4.2 Register Bit Definitions
The section provides details of the bit definitions for the registers summarized in the previous section. Writing to a bit or
register defined as reserved could cause unpredictable results. If it is necessary to write to registers that contain both
writable and reserved bits in the same register, the user should first read back the reserved bits (RO or RW), then “OR”
the desired settable bits with the value read and write back the “ORed” value back to the register.
Bit Type Definition:
RO = Read only.
WO = Write only.
RW = Read/Write.
SC = Self-Clear.
W1C = Write “1” to Clear (Write a “1” to clear this bit).

the domain field in PTP message with the PTP_DOMAIN_VER[7:0]. The
PTP message will be forwarded to port 3 if the domain field is matched to
PTP_DOMAIN_VER[7:0] otherwise the PTP message will be dropped.
If set this bit to “0”, regardless of domain field, PTP messages are always
forwarded to port 3 according to hardware default rules.

4.3 MII Management (MIIM) Registers
The MIIM interface is used to access the MII PHY registers within the two embedded PHY blocks. The SPI interface
can also be used to access these registers. The latter three interfaces use a different mapping mechanism than the
MIIM interface. Note that when accessing these registers via the SPI interface, the relative order of the registers is not
exactly the same.
The “PHYADs” by defaults are assigned “0x1” for PHY1 (port 1) and “0x2” for PHY2 (port 2).
The “REGAD” supported addresses are 0x0-0x5, 0x1D and 0x1F.

4.4 Management Information Base (MIB) Counters
The KSZ8463 provides 34 MIB counters for each port. These counters are used to monitor the port activity for network
management. The MIB counters are formatted “per port” and “all ports dropped packet” as shown in Table 4-199.
“Per Port” MIB counters are read using indirect memory access. The base address offsets and address ranges for all
three ports are:
Port 1, base address is 0x00 and range is from 0x00 to 0x1F.
Port 2, base address is 0x20 and range is from 0x20 to 0x3F.
Port 3 (Host MII/RMII), base address is 0x40 and range is from 0x40 to 0x5F.
“Per Port” MIB counters are read using indirect access control in the IACR register (0x030 – 0x031) and the indirect
access data registers in IADR4[15:0], IADR5[31:16] (0x02C – 0x02F). The port 1 MIB counters address memory offset
as in Table 4-200.

“Per Port” MIB counters are designed as “read clear”. That is, these counters will be cleared after they are read.
“All Ports Dropped Packet” MIB counters are not cleared after they are accessed. The application needs to keep track
of overflow and valid conditions on these counters.
4.5 Static MAC Address Table
The KSZ8463 supports both a static and a dynamic MAC address table. In response to a destination address (DA) look
up, The KSZ8463 searches both tables to make a packet forwarding decision. In response to a source address (SA)
look up, only the dynamic table is searched for aging, migration and learning purposes.
The static DA look up result takes precedence over the dynamic DA look up result. If there is a DA match in both tables,
the result from the static table is used. These entries in the static table will not be aged out by the KSZ8463.

4.7 VLAN Table
The KSZ8463 uses the VLAN table to perform look-ups. If 802.1Q VLAN mode is enabled (SGCR2[15]), 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 Table 29.
If 802.1Q VLAN mode is enabled, then KSZ8463 will assign a VID to every ingress packet. If the packet is untagged or
tagged with a null VID, then the packet is assigned with the default port VID of the ingress port. If the packet is tagged
with non-null VID, then VID in the tag will be used. The look up process will start from the VLAN table look up. If the VID
is not found in any of the VLAN table entries, or if the VID is found but is not valid, then packet will be dropped and no
address learning will take place. If the VID is valid, then FID is retrieved. The FID+DA and FID+SA lookups are per-
formed. The FID+DA look up determines the forwarding ports. If FID+DA fails, then the packet will be broadcast to all
the members (excluding the ingress port) of the VLAN. If FID+SA fails, then the FID+SA will be learned.
53 - 52 00 RO
Source Port
Identifies the source port where FID+MAC is learned:
00 = Port 1
01 = Port 2
10 = Port 3

7.10 Reset and Power Sequence Timing
The KSZ8463 reset timing and power sequence requirements are summarized in the following figure and table.
Note 7-1 The recommended powering sequence is to bring up all voltages at the same time. However, if that
cannot be attained, then a recommended power-up sequence is to have the transceiver (VDD_A3.3)
and digital I/Os (VDD_IO) voltages power up before the low voltage core (VDD_AL, VDD_L, and
VDD_COL) voltage, if an external low voltage core supply is used. There is no power sequence
requirement between transceiver (VDD_A3.3) and digital I/Os (VDD_IO) power rails. The power-up
waveforms should be monotonic for all supply voltages to the KSZ8463.
Note 7-2 After the de-assertion of reset, it is recommended to wait a minimum of 100 s before starting
programming of the device through any interface.
Note 7-3 The recommended power-down sequence is to have the low voltage core voltage power down first
before powering down the transceiver and digital I/O voltages.

7.11 Reset Circuit
The following reset circuit is recommended for powering up the KSZ8463 device if reset is triggered by the power supply.
The following reset circuit is recommended for applications where reset is driven by another device (e.g., CPU or
FPGA). At POR, R, C and D1 provide the necessary ramp rise time to reset the KSZ8463 device. The RST_OUT_N
from CPU/FPGA provides the warm reset after power-up.

8.0 REFERENCE CLOCK: CONNECTION AND SELECTION
The three different sources for a reference clock are shown in Figure 8-1. Note that MII clocks are not discussed in this
section. The KSZ8463ML and KSZ8463FML require an external 25 MHz crystal attached to X1/X2, or a 25 MHz oscil-
lator attached to X1.
The KSZ8463RL and KSZ8463FRL have two options for a reference clock, as determined by the strapping option on
pin 41. The 25 MHz option on X1/X2 is as described above. When the 50 MHz option is selected, an external 50 MHz
clock is applied to the REFCLK_I pin, while X1 and X2 are unconnected. Note that in the 25 MHz mode, REFCLK_O
must be enabled, and it must be externally connected to REFCLK_I.
The resistor shown on X2 is optional and can be used to limit current to the crystal if needed, depending on the specific
crystal that is used. The maximum recommended value is 30.
