KS8993M / KS8993MI
‡
Integrated 3-Ports 10/100 Managed Switch with PHY
Confidential Information
Overview
The KS8993M, a highly integrated layer-
2 managed switch, is designed for low
port count, cost-sensitive 10/100 Mbps
switch systems. It offers an extensive
feature set that includes tag/port-based
VLAN, QoS priority, management, MIB
counters, MII/SNI interface and CPU
control/data interfaces to effectively
address both current and emerging Fast
Ethernet applications.
Revision 1.02
The KS8993M contains two 10/100
transceivers with
patented mixed-signal
low-power technology,
three MAC
(Media Access Control) units, a high-
speed non-blocking switch fabric, a
dedicated address lookup engine, and
an on-chip frame buffer memory.
Both PHY units support 10BaseT and
100BaseTX. In addition, one of the PHY
unit supports 100BaseFX.
