Figure 4-2. TLK111 RMII/MAC Connection
RMII function includes a programmable elastic buffer to adjust for the frequency differences between the
reference clock and the recovered receive clock. The programmable elastic buffer minimizes internal
propagation delay based on expected maximum packet size and clock accuracy.
Table 4-1 indicates how to program the buffer FIFO based on the expected max packet size and clock
accuracy. It assumes that the RMII reference clock and the far-end transmitter clock have the same
accuracy.
