Micrel, Inc. Features
Switch Management
• Non-blocking switch fabric assures fast packet delivery
by utilizing a 1K entry MAC Address look-up engine and
a store-and-forward architecture
• Fully compliant with IEEE802.3u standards
• Full-duplex IEEE 802.3x flow control (Pause) with force
mode option
• Half-duplex back pressure flow control Advanced Switch Management
• IEEE 802.1Q VLAN support for up to 16 groups (fullrange of VLAN IDs)
• VLAN ID tag/untag options, per port basis
• IEEE 802.1p/Q tag insertion or removal on a per-port
basis (egress)
• Programmable rate limiting at the ingress and egress
port
• Broadcast storm protection
• IEEE 802.1d spanning tree protocol support
• MAC filtering function to filter unicast packets
• Unknown MAC address forwarding function
• Direct forwarding mode enabling the processor to
identify the ingress port and to specify the egress port
• IGMP v1/v2 snooping support for multicast packet
filtering
• IPV6 Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD) snooping
support Monitoring
• Port mirroring/monitoring/sniffing: ingress and/or egress
traffic to any port
• Management information base (MIB) counters for fully
compliant statistics gathering: 32 MIB counters per port
• Loop back modes for remote failure diagnostics Comprehensive Register Access
• There are three kinds of register groups:
• The PCI configuration registers are used to initialize
and configure the PCI interface
• The PCI control/status registers are used to
communicate between the host and KSZ8842PMQL/PMBL
• Switch registers are used to support transceiver control
and status. They are configurable on-the-fly (portpriority, 802.1p/d/Q, etc.) QoS/CoS Packets Prioritization Support KSZ8842-PMQL/PMBL Power Modes, Packaging, and Power Supplies
• Full-chip hardware power-down (register configuration
not saved) provides for low power dissipation
• Per port-based software power-save on PHY (idle link
detection, register configuration preserved)
• Single power supply: 3.3V
• Commercial Temperature Range: 0°C to +70°C
• Industrial Temperature Range: –40°C to +85°C
• Available in 128-pin PQFP and 100-ball LFBGA Additional Features
In addition to offering all of the features of an integrated
Layer-2 managed switch, the KSZ8842-PMQL/PMBL
offers:
• Repeater mode capabilities to allow for cut through in
latency critical Industrial Ethernet or Embedded
Ethernet applications
• Dynamic buffer memory scheme essential for
applications such as Video over IP where image jitter is
unacceptable
• 2-Port switch with a 32-bit/33MHz PCI processor
interface.
®
• Micrel LinkMD cable diagnostics to determine cable
length, diagnose faulty cables, and determine distanceto-fault
• Hewlett Packard (HP) Auto MDI-X crossover with
disable and enable options
• Four priority queues to handle voice, video, data, and
control packets
• Ability to transmit and receive jumbo frame sizes up to
1916 bytes Applications
