Hello,
On page 41 of the 8M Mini datasheet, it says that pad ENET_TXC can be put in ALT1 mode and output signal RMII.TX_ERR. However, RMII doesn't use a TX_ERR signal. Is this a mistake? How should I be using this signal when connecting up an Ethernet PHY using RMII?
Thanks

Hello,
from RMII specs:
"... in switch applications there is no need for TX_ER since a MAC will never generate errored data.
The one case where TX_ER is used is with repeaters that need to ensure propagation of errors."
Have a great day,
Yuri
