3-port 10/100 Integrated Switch With Phy And Frame Buffer - Micrel SemiconductorThe KS8993 contains three 10/100 physical layer transceiv-
ers, three MAC (Media Access Control) units with an inte-
grated layer 2 Switch The device runs in two modes. The first
mode is a three port integrated Switch and the second is as
a three port Switch with the third port decoupled from the
physical port. In this mode access to the third MAC is provided
using a reverse or forward MII (Media Independent Interface)
such that an external MAC CAN be directly connected to the
KS8993. This Interface also supports the 7-wire (serial net-
work interface) as used by some routing devices.
Useful configurations include a stand alone three port Switch
as well as a two port Switch with a routing element connected
to the extra MII port. The additional port is also useful for
public network interfacing. By Micrel Semiconductor
