TJA1120A RGMII Auto-Ethernet We are working on TJA1120A RGMII Auto-Ethernet on our Custom Board based on TI AM62A7 Kindly help us with how to enable this interface on Yocto Linux We have tried following DTS node format as in https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/nxp%2Ctja11xx.yaml But driver didnt probe on Kernel dmesg We understand that this PHY has vendor ID D001B:B031 We have also enabled CONFIG_NXP_TJA11XX_PHY in kernel config CONFIG_NXP_C45_TJA11XX_PHY Re: TJA1120A RGMII Auto-Ethernet Hello @vikyhre ,
To narrow this down, could you please share:
1) Does U-Boot detect the PHY on the MDIO bus at the expected address? (e.g. output of “mdio list” / “mii info”) 2) Please share the relevant DTS snippets for the CPSW port node and the MDIO/PHY node (phy-handle, phy-mode, PHY reg/address), plus the boot log lines related to MDIO/PHY init: dmesg | egrep -i "mdio|cpsw|phy|tja|nxp"
With these two items we can quickly determine whether the PHY is not visible on MDIO (HW/pinmux/reset/address) or if it’s a DT binding/reference issue.

Please note that Community threads are actively monitored for 7 days after the last post. After this period, we only receive subscription email notifications for further updates, and such notifications can occasionally be missed.
If you need additional assistance in the future, we recommend creating a new Community query or supporting ticket https://support.nxp.com/s/?language=en_US .
Anyway, here's my analyses.
Please note that the Linux commands below are provided as suggested diagnostic checks. Since I do not have access to your exact build and runtime environment, I cannot directly verify them on your setup and minor adaptations may be needed depending on your system configuration.
The following thread might be useful as a reference:
No packet transmission with TJA1120 and i.MX8 Eval hardware
From the log, the MDIO access itself seems to be working, because Linux detects two PHY devices on the MDIO bus:
[ 1.358577] davinci_mdio 8000f00.mdio: phy[0]: device 8000f00.mdio:00, driver Micrel KSZ9031 Gigabit PHY [ 1.368066] davinci_mdio 8000f00.mdio: phy[4]: device 8000f00.mdio:04, driver unknown
So the TJA1120A appears to be visible at MDIO address 4, but it is not bound to the NXP C45 TJA11xx PHY driver yet. This is likely why the CPSW port later fails during RGMII validation.
As a first step, please try updating the TJA1120A PHY node to explicitly specify Clause 45:
&cpsw_port1 { status = "okay"; phy-mode = "rgmii"; /* or rgmii-id / rgmii-rxid / rgmii-txid depending on your board delay design */ phy-handle = <&cpsw3g_phy0>; }; &cpsw3g_phy0 { compatible = "ethernet-phy-id001b.b030", "ethernet-phy-ieee802.3-c45"; reg = <4>; status = "okay"; };
Also, please remove this property from the TJA1120A node:
nxp,rmii-refclk-in;
This property is related to RMII reference clock configuration and should not be used for your RGMII TJA1120A setup.
After rebuilding and booting with the updated DTB, please check whether the driver is attached, for example:
dmesg | egrep -i "mdio|cpsw|phy|tja|nxp"
The expected result is that the PHY at address 4 is no longer shown as driver unknown , but is attached to the NXP C45 TJA11xx/TJA1120 driver.
If it still remains driver unknown , please also confirm that the running kernel really contains the driver support:
zcat /proc/config.gz | egrep "NXP.*TJA|C45|PHYLIB" find /lib/modules/$(uname -r) -name "*tja*"
Best regards,
Pavel Re: TJA1120A RGMII Auto-Ethernet Hello @vikyhre ,
Thank you for the update. The new dmesg output looks much better now. The TJA1120A is detected on MDIO address 4 and is correctly bound to the NXP C45 TJA1120 driver:
[ 1.476820] davinci_mdio 8000f00.mdio: phy[4]: device 8000f00.mdio:04, driver NXP C45 TJA1120 [ 6.654104] am65-cpsw-nuss 8000000.ethernet eth0: PHY [8000f00.mdio:04] driver [NXP C45 TJA1120]
So, the previous issue with the missing driver support seems to be resolved.
Regarding your current link partner: the Microchip EVB-LAN8770M_MC is a 100BASE-T1 media converter, while TJA1120A is a 1000BASE-T1 PHY. These are different automotive Ethernet PHY standards/speeds, so the LAN8770M-based 100BASE-T1 converter should not be expected to establish a link with the TJA1120A 1000BASE-T1 PHY. Auto-negotiation cannot negotiate a common mode if one side supports 100BASE-T1 and the other side is a 1000BASE-T1 PHY.
TJA1120 is an automotive 1000BASE-T1 PHY and in automotive Ethernet applications the link configuration is typically expected to be deterministic and explicitly defined. So, auto negotiation is not required and thus not supported.
For testing the TJA1120A link, please use a 1000BASE-T1 capable link partner, for example another TJA1120/TJA1121 based board or a 1000BASE-T1 media converter.
Please open a new question to the forum, if you require any further assistance, since this thread has been marked as solved.
Best regards,
Pavel
Re: TJA1120A RGMII Auto-Ethernet Sure Pavel, sorry for late reply You were right, its just that the kernel didnt have support for TJA1120 eventhough i had CONFIG_NXP_C45_TJA11XX_PHY=y enabled in older kernel. It seems i should have checked driver source code where i found out TJA1120 isnt present for older kernel(https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/v6.12/drivers/net/phy/nxp-c45-tja11xx.c). root@am62axx-evm:~# dmesg | egrep -i "mdio|cpsw|phy|tja|nxp"
