Some Ethernet PHY chips have RMII or SMII interfaces, however the soft or hard MACs in FPGAs are often MII interfaces.
In order to achieve adaptation, this repository implements:
-
MII to RMII for 10M/100M Ethernet
-
MII to SMII for 10M/100M Ethernet

Its design source is rmii_phy_if.v in the RTL directory. It is written according to the specification document RMII.pdf . Please refer to the code comments for its usage. It has successfully run ethernet communication on LAN8720 (a PHY chip with RMII interface).
Note: The frequency of the RMII interface is 50MHz, so the connection between the FPGA and the PHY chip should be short enough. It is recommended to draw them on the same PCB, or use the pin headers to connect them directly. Do not use the Dupont wire for connection.
Simulation related files are in the SIM folder, where:
- tb_rmii_phy_if.v is a testbench for rmii_phy_if.v, it generates fake, short frame on RMII RX channel, rmii_phy_if will convert it to MII RX waveform. Simutinously, it generates fake, short frames on the MII TX channel, which are converted into RMII TX waveforms by rmii_phy_if.
- tb_rmii_phy_if_run_iverilog.bat is a command script to run iverilog simulation.
Before using iverilog for simulation, you need to install iverilog , see: iverilog_usage
Then double-click tb_rmii_phy_if_run_iverilog.bat to run the simulation, and then you can open the generated dump.vcd file to view the waveform.

一些以太网 PHY 芯片拥有 RMII 或 SMII 接口，然而 FPGA 中的软核或硬核的 MAC 往往是 MII 接口的。
为了实现适配，本库实现了：
-
10M/100M 以太网的 MII 转 RMII
-
10M/100M 以太网的 MII 转 SMII

它的设计代码是 RTL 目录中的 rmii_phy_if.v 。它是根据规范文档 RMII.pdf 编写的。使用方法详见代码注释。它已在 LAN8720（一个 RMII 接口的 PHY 芯片）上成功运行了网络通信。
注：RMII 接口频率为 50MHz ，因此 FPGA 和 PHY 芯片之间的连接要足够短，最好画在同一个PCB上，或直接用插针传递信号，不要用杜邦线连接。
仿真相关的文件都在 SIM 文件夹中，其中：
- tb_rmii_phy_if.v 是针对 rmii_phy_if.v 的 testbench，它在 RMII RX 通道上生成假的、短小的帧，rmii_phy_if 会把它转换成 MII RX 的波形。同时，它在 MII TX 通道上生成假的、短小的帧，通过 rmii_phy_if 转换成 RMII TX 的波形。
- tb_rmii_phy_if_run_iverilog.bat 包含了运行 iverilog 仿真的命令。
使用 iverilog 进行仿真前，需要安装 iverilog ，见：iverilog_usage
然后双击 tb_rmii_phy_if_run_iverilog.bat 运行仿真，然后可以打开生成的 dump.vcd 文件查看波形。
