Intel IXF1104 7.6MDIO AC Timing Specification, 7.6.1MDC High-SpeedOperation Timing, Datasheet

IXF1104 4-Port Gigabit Ethernet Media Access Controller

7.6MDIO AC Timing Specification

The MDIO Interface on the IXF1104 can operate in two modes – low-speed and high-speed. In low-speed mode, the MDC clock signal operates at a frequency of 2.5 MHz. In high-speed mode, the MDC clock signal operates at a frequency of 18 MHz. (See Figure 41 through Figure 44 and Table 52.)
