@Igor

Dear sir,

We are using Processor dual lite part number MCIMX6U6AVM10AD  ball pin V22 (ENET_REF_CLK) connected to PHY (RMII)LAN8720AI-CP pin 5 XTAL1/CLKIN 

Is the pin Enet_ref_clk (ball no V22) can be used as Enet_tx_clk for RMII mode?

I have attached the Pin configuration of Processor and PHY side.

please give quick suggestion.

Thanks & Regards,

Ramesha S P

Hi Ramesha

rmii clocks are well described on

https://community.nxp.com/thread/304346?commentID=331971#comment-331971 

seems ball V22 (ENET_REF_CLK) could be used only for rgmii mode.

Best regards
igor

V22 is not used in rmii mode. Signal ENET_REF_CLK (not pad

with name "ENET_REF_CLK") should be used - it is provided from

balls RGMII_TX_CTL or GPIO_16. Please look for more details in
