The KSZ8061 is a family of single-chip 10Base-T/100Base-TX Ethernet physical layer transceivers for transmission and reception of data over unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable. The KSZ8061 features Quiet-WIRE® internal filtering to reduce line emissions. It is ideal for applications, such as automotive or industrial networks, where stringent radiated emission limits need to be met. Quiet-WIRE can use low-cost unshielded cable, where previously only shielded cable solutions were possible. The KSZ8061 also features enhanced immunity to environmental EM noise.
The KSZ8061MNx offers the Media Independent Interface (MII) for direct connection with MII-compliant Ethernet MAC processors and switches. The KSZ8061RNx features a Reduced Media Independent Interface (RMII) for direct connection with RMII-compliant Ethernet MAC processors and switches. The KSZ8061RNB generates a 50MHz RMII reference clock for use by the connected MAC device. In contrast, the KSZ8061RND receives the 50MHz RMII reference clock as an input.
They are designed to exceed Automotive AEC-Q100 and EMC requirements, and feature an extended temperature range of -40°C to +105°C.
The KSZ8061MNX is supplied in a 32-lead, 5mm x 5mm QFN or WQFN package. The KSZ8061MNG is in a 48-lead, 7mm x 7mm QFN package. The KSZ8061RNx are supplied in 32-pin, 5mm x 5mm QFN and WQFN packages.

The KSZ8061 Daughter Board (AC320004-6) enables Ethernet Communication with a variety of Microchip Starter kits. This daughter Board is designed specifically to be used with the PIC32 Ethernet Starter kit II or the PIC32 MZ Connectivity with Floating Point Unit (EF) Starter Kit.It can also be used with the other Microchip Development Hardware.
The KSZ8061 32-QFN Evaluation Board is designed to enable functional and performance testing of the KSZ8061MNX PHY. In addition to the KSZ8061 PHY, there is a second PHY – a KSZ8081. The KSZ8081 is a standard 10/100 Ethernet PHY. It is used here to provide a second line interface, for simple full-duplex traffic through the KSZ8061. This board is not intended for evaluation of the KSZ8081....
