MAC Interface Breakout Connectors

The DP83561EVM comes with two MAC interface breakout boards, and RGMII back-to-back connector board, and a MAC interface breakout board. When configuring the DP83561-SP for MII mode, the MAC interface breakout board must be used to access the MII pins.

RGMII Back-to-Back Configuration

  • Connect J4 of the main DP83561EVM board to J22 of the RGMII back-to-back connector
  • Connect J19 of the RGMII back-to-back connector to a second DP83561EVM or other RGMII MAC
Note: RGMII back-to-back connector is reversible, RGMII back-to-back breakout connector can be conneted to a DP83561EVM on either J19 or J22.

MAC Interface Breakout Board Configuration

The MAC Interface Breakout Board can be used to directly access the MII pins of the DP83561-SP. This board can be used for configurations such as configuring the DP83561EVM for RGMII external loopback tests as described by RGMII BER Testing - External Loopback Configuration, or connecting an MII MAC.

  • Connect J4 of the main DP83561EVM board to J1 of the MAC interface breakout board
  • MAC interface pins can be accessed via J2 of the MAC interface breakout board connector.
