exhibit A / exhibit B
am i delirious or does this PHY just... not comply with the RMII spec??

two scope traces CH1: CRS_DV CH2: REF_CLK duration of low pulse on CRS_DV is 220 ns rather than 200 ns (5 MHz). this is 11 cycles of REF_CLK rather than 10
Loss of carrier shall result in the deassertion of CRS_DV synchronous to the cycle of REF_CLK which presents the first di-bit of a nibble onto RXD[1:0] (i.e. CRS_DV is deasserted only on nibble boundaries). If the PHY has additional bits to be presented on RXD[1:0] following the initial deassertion of CRS_DV, then the PHY shall assert CRS_DV on cycles of REF_CLK which present the second di-bit of each nibble and deassert CRS_DV on cycles of REF_CLK which present the first di-bit of a nibble.

"Mary Maxwell Gates, Bill’s mother, was appointed to the board of directors of the national United Way in 1980. And guess who else was in that committee? The late John Opel, president, chairman, and CEO of…, you guessed it, IBM, between 1974 and 1986."

Gary Kildall
I had a revelation during the preparation of this article. Legend has it that Gary Kildall, as Forbes put it, "could have been Bill Gates", if it were not that he was busy flying his airplane the day IBM knocked on the door. Most analysts dealing with this foundational moment in computing history, however, leave aside a particular piece of information, which I think explains why IBM chose Microsoft over Digital Research as the provider for the operating system of the original IBM PC, even thoug…
