Read Transaction

Figure8-7 shows a Read transaction; this is defined by OP=”10”. The addressed MMD

(PHYAD) device returns the 16-bit word from the register at REGAD.

For details of the register map of MMD (PHY layer devices) and a detailed description of

the operation of the MDIO Interface itself, see IEEE 802.3-2005.

Accessing MDIO With GEMAC

More information about MDIO with GEMAC can be found in the following sections of this

guide:

•For the GEMAC port definition of the MDIO, see “MDIO Interface” in Chapter 2

•“Connecting the MDIO to an Internally Integrated PHY,” on page 76

•“Connecting the MDIO to an External PHY,” on page 76

The management interface is also used to access the MDIO interface of the GEMAC core.

The MDIO interface supplies a clock to the connected PHY, mdc. This clock is derived from

the host_clk signal using the value in the Clock Divide[4:0] configuration register.

The frequency of mdc is given by the following equation:

The frequency of mdc given by this equation should not exceed 2.5 MHz to comply with

the IEEE 802.3-2005 specification for this interface. To prevent mdc from being out of

specification, the Clock Divide[4:0] value powers up at 00000. While this value is in

the register, it is impossible to enable the MDIO interface.

For details of the register map of PHY layer devices and a detailed description of the

operation of the MDIO interface itself, see IEEE 802.3-2005.
