KSZ8441HL Datasheet | Micrel Semiconductor

Description The KSZ8441 product is an IEEE 1588v2-enabled Ethernet controller device with an internal MAC and PHY that provides integrated munication and synchronization for a range of industrial Ethernet applications. The KSZ8441 product enables end-point connection in a centralized topology. A flexible 8- or 16-bit general bus interface is provided for interfacing to an external host processor. The KSZ8441 devices incorporate the IEEE 1588v2 protocol. Sub-microsecond synchronization is available via the use of hardware-based time stamping and transparent clocks making it the ideal solution for time-synchronized layer 2 munication in critical industrial applications. Extensive general purpose input/output (GPIO) capabilities are available to use with the IEEE 1588v2 PTP to efficiently and accurately interface to locally-connected devices. plementing the industry’s most integrated IEEE 1588v2 device is a precision timing protocol (PTP) v2 software stack that has been pre-qualified with the KSZ84xx product family. The PTP stack has been optimized around the KSZ84xx chip architecture, and is available in source code format along with Micrel’s chip driver. ETHERSYNCH™ The KSZ8441 is built upon Micrel’s industry-leading Ethernet technology, with features designed-to-offload host processing and streamline overall design, including: - 1 integrated 10/100BASE-TX PHY transceiver, featuring the industry’s lowest power consumption - Flexible management options that support mon standard interfaces A robust assortment of power management features including energy-efficient Ethernet (EEE) have been designed in to satisfy energy-efficient environments.
