1 Introduction
The AR8033 Ethernet transceiver is a single port, 10/100/1000 Mbps tri-speed Ethernet PHY. The
AR8033 Ethernet transceiver supports both RGMII and SGMII to the MAC. The AR8033
Ethernet transceiver belongs to the Arctic™ PHY family which provides a low power, low BOM
cost solution for comprehensive applications including enterprise, carrier and home networks such
as CPE, home gateway, enterprise switch, carrier switch/router, mobile base station and base
station controller, optical module and media converter, industrial automation and measurement.
The AR8033 Ethernet transceiver integrates Green ETHOS® power saving technologies which
significantly save power in both active operation and idle condition. Green ETHOS power saving
schemes include ultra-low power in cable unplugged mode or port power down mode, as well as
automatically optimized power saving based on cable length. The AR8033 Ethernet transceiver
supports standard IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) and Qualcomm Atheros
proprietary SmartEEE™. SmartEEE allows legacy MAC and SoC devices without IEEE 802.3az
support to cowork with AR8033 to provide full IEEE 802.3az support. Furthermore, the AR8033
Ethernet transceiver supports Wake-on-LAN (WoL) feature to manage and regulate total system
power requirements.
The AR8033 Ethernet transceiver embeds Cable Diagnostics Test (CDT) technology for
measuring cable length, detecting the cable status, and identifying remote and local PHY
malfunctions, bad or marginal patch cord segments or connectors.
The AR8033 Ethernet transceiver requires only a single 3.3 V power supply. Embedded regulators
are used to generate other required voltages. The AR8033 Ethernet transceiver integrates the
termination circuitry at the line side.
The AR8033 Ethernet transceiver incorporates a 1.25 Gbps SerDes. This interface can be
connected directly to a fiber-optic transceiver for 1000BASE-X/100BASE-FX mode or used as
SGMII with MAC.
The AR8033 Ethernet transceiver supports Synchronous Ethernet by offering recovered clock
output from data on the network-line side.
The AR8033 Ethernet transceiver supports IEEE 802.3az standard. The key features include:
10BASE-Te PHY uses reduced transmit amplitude.
100BASE-TX and 1000BASE-T use Low Power Idle (LPI) mode to turn off unused analog
and digital blocks to save power when data traffic is idle.

Copper operating mode
SGMII is serial GMII with significantly less signal pins than required for GMII to connect with
MAC/SoC. After copper-side link is established, SGMII passes the copper-side link status (link,
speed, duplex) to MAC side for building the link. SGMII shares the same SerDes with the fiber
port.
MAC requires to configure RGMII (including speed, duplex and pause) according to PHY link
status.
The following ways can be used for MAC to get the information:
Through PHY specific status register — copper page (MII register offset 0x11)
Through interrupt function
Interrupt enable register (MII register offset 0x12) must be enabled and the interrupt status can
be retrieved in Interrupt status register (MII register offset 0x13). When the controller gets the
interrupt, check the interrupt source and link status in MII register 0x11.
Through inband status (RGMII)
Through auto-negotiation (SGMII)
For RGMII, by default AR8033 adds 2 ns delay for RX_CLK reference to RXD to meet the MAC
input setup and hold time. The MAC to PHY direction requires to add 2 ns typical delay of GTX_
CLK reference to TXD for PHY to capture the data.

Function Description
AR8033 supports the following converter modes:
100BASE-FX fiber to 100BASE-TX copper
1000BASE-X fiber to 1000BASE-T copper
The converter mode can be configured by power-on strapping pins (see “Power-on strapping” on
page 18) or by bits[3:0] MODE_CFG in Chip configure register. The register configuration takes
effect immediately. Three LEDs are used to indicate fiber interface status.
In converter mode, auto-negotiation is running independently on fiber and copper interfaces. The
link status can be checked from copper page and fiber page respectively.
Chip configure register

– 1 = Select copper page.

Offset addresses (0x0, 0x1, 0x4, 0x5, 0x6, 0x7, 0x8 and 0x11) can be used as either fiber page or
copper page. See “Registers” on page 55 for details.
When the fiber and copper interfaces link up to the same speed, packets can go through the PHY.
When 1000M converter mode (BX1000_CONV) is enabled, the copper port can still link to 100M
with a 100M link partner, but packets cannot go through the PHY.
NOTE
Because the two interfaces implement auto-negotiation individually, the controller is
required to ensure that the duplex and pause of two remote link partners are matched.
In converter mode, the RGMII signal can be left floated.
3.1.4 Auto-Media Detect (Combo)
AR8033 supports auto-media detect feature which allows MAC to detect active link partners and
process data from copper or fiber interface according to the priority setting and link status. The
copper and fiber work modes can be enabled simultaneously by setting the mode bit to 1011 by
power-on strapping pin or bits[3:0] MODE_CFG in Chip configure register.
No fiber or cable connection: Both interfaces enter power saving mode.
Fiber connected: RGMII fiber mode. The PHY uses signal detection from SerDes along with
the synchronization state machine to recognize a valid connection.
Copper connected: RGMII copper mode. The PHY recognizes copper connection through
power transmitted over the copper line.
Combo mode: When active link partners over both fiber and copper are detected, the PHY
operation mode is defined by priority setting. Priority is configured by Chip configure register:

Description
1000BASE-T
In 1000BASE-T mode, AR8033 scrambles Tx data bytes from the MAC interfaces and
encodes them into 4D five-level PAM signals over the four pairs of CAT5 cable.
100BASE-TX
In 100BASE-TX mode, 4-bit data from the MII is 4B/5B serialized, scrambled, and
encoded to a 3-level MLT3 sequence transmitted by the PMA.
10BASE-Te
In 10BASE-Te mode, AR8033 transmits and receives Manchester-encoded data.
3.3 Receive functions

Decoder modes
Table 3-3 lists the receive function decoder modes.
Table 3-3

Description
1000BASE-T
In 1000BASE-T mode, the PMA recovers the 4D PAM signals after accounting for the
cabling conditions such as skew among the four pairs, the pair swap order, and the
polarity of the pairs. The resulting code group is decoded into 8-bit data values. Data
stream delimiters are translated appropriately and data is output to the MAC interfaces.
100BASE-TX
In 100BASE-TX mode, the receive data stream is recovered and descrambled to align
to the symbol boundaries. The aligned data is then parallelized and 5B/4B decoded to
4-bit data. This output runs to the MII receive data pins after data stream delimiters have
been translated.
10BASE-Te
In 10BASE-Te mode, the recovered 10BASE-Te signal is decoded from Manchester
then aligned.

3.3.2
Function Description
Analog-to-Digital converter
Each Rx channel includes an advanced high speed ADC with high resolution for better Signal-toNoise Ratio (SNR) and lower error rates.
3.3.3
Echo canceller
Because hybrid circuit is used to transmit and receive simultaneously on each pair, echo occurs
when the transmitter is not perfectly matched to the line. Connector or cable imperfections, such as
patch panel discontinuity and variations in cable impedance along the twisted pair cable, can also
result in drastic SNR degradation on the Rx signal.
The adaptive digital echo canceller is used to compensate for the varied channel conditions that
result in SNR degradation on the Rx signal.
3.3.4
NEXT canceller
The 1000BASE-T physical layer uses all four twisted pairs to transmit data which incurs
significant high frequency crosstalk occurs between adjacent pairs.
Three parallel NEXT cancellers are thus integrated on each Rx channel to cancel high frequency
crosstalk by subtracting an estimate noise signals from the equalizer output.
3.3.5
Baseline wander canceller
Baseline wander occurs on Ethernet links AC-coupled to the transceiver. When the AC-coupling
cannot maintain voltage levels for a specific time, the transmitted pulses are distorted which
results in erroneous sampled values for affected pulses.
The baseline wander cancellation circuit continuously monitors and compensates for this issue,
minimizing the impact of DC baseline shift on the overall error rate.
3.3.6
Digital adaptive equalizer
The digital adaptive equalizer, using a combination of Feedforward Equalizer (FFE) and Decision
Feedback Equalizer (DFE), removes inter-symbol interference at the receiver by filtering
unequalized signals from ADC output for optimized SNR.
3.3.7 Auto-negotiation
The auto-negotiation function for 10BASE-Te/100BASE-TX/1000BASE-T Copper complies with
IEEE 802.3 clauses 28 and 40.
Auto-negotiation provides a mechanism to exchange information between a pair of link partners to
choose the optimized mode of operation in terms of speed, duplex modes, and master/slave
preference. Auto-negotiation is initiated upon any of the following scenarios:

Transition from power-down to power-up
Link down
Function Description
When auto-negotiation is disabled, the operation speed mode can be manually selected using the
IEEE MII register 0.
NOTE
3.3.8
In 10BASE-Te/100BASE-TX, when one end disables auto-negotiation (force mode)
and the other end enables auto-negotiation (advertise half-duplex), the link can be
established and the end with auto-negotiation enabled works in half-duplex mode. So
if the end in force mode is in half-duplex mode, the information transmission between
the two link partners works normally; if the end in force mode is in full-duplex mode,
mismatch occurs between the two link partners. The link cannot be established in
1000BASE-T under similar situation.
Smartspeed
The Smartspeed function is an enhanced feature of auto-negotiation that allows the AR8033
device to downgrade in speed based on cabling conditions. With Smartspeed enabled, after a
configurable number (MII Register 14.4:2) of failed attempts, the PHY automatically downgrades
the highest ability it advertises to the next lower speed: from 1000 to 100 to 10.
The Smartspeed feature is enabled by default. See “Smart speed register” on page 85 for detailed
information.
Bit[5]: SMARTSPEED_EN
1 = Enables Smartspeed (default)
0 = Disables Smartspeed
Bits[4:2]: SMARTSPEED_RETRY_LIMIT
Sets the number of link attempts before adjusting
Bit[1]: BYPASS_SMARTSPEED_TIMER
Timer to determine the stable link condition
NOTE
3.3.9
The Smartspeed enable bit requires a software reset to take effect after writing bit[15]
in Control register — copper page (0x0) to 1. When Smartspeed function is disabled,
write bit[8] in Smart speed register (0x14) to 1, rather than change bit[9] in
1000BASE-T control register (0x9), to disable 1000BASE-T full-duplex link ability.
Automatic MDI/MDIX crossover
During auto-negotiation, the automatic MDI/MDIX crossover function automatically determines
and sets the required MDI configuration, eliminating the need for external crossover cable.

3.6 Fiber mode support
Besides standard 10/100/1000 BASE-T copper port support, AR8033 provides additional IEEE
1000BASE-X and 100BASE-FX support in fiber applications through integrated SerDes. AR8033
can work in RGMII mode to fiber, 100BASE-FX to 100BASE-TX, and 1000BASE-X to
1000BASE-T.
Besides 1000BASE-X and 100BASE-FX support, AR8033 supports IEEE 802.3 remote Fault
Indication and Fault Propagation in fiber application.
3.6.1
IEEE 802.3 remote fault indication support
Remote Fault allows stations on a fiber optic link to detect when a problem occurs on the link.
Without Remote Fault, a station cannot detect a problem that affects only one fiber such as
transmit direction fiber.
With Remote Fault, the loss of a Receive signal (Link) causes the transmitter to send a special
pattern of data indicating that a fault has occurred. 84 “1”s followed by a single “0” is sent three
times, in-band, and is readily detectable by the remote station. This data is constructed not to
satisfy the 100BASE-X carrier sense criterion, so the message is not interpreted as normal traffic.
If the remote station has Remote Fault, the link is dropped. If the remote station does not have
Remote Fault, the special data pattern is ignored.
AR8033 indicates whether or not a Remote Fault pattern has been received from the remote station
using the Remote Fault Status Bit. This Remote Fault Status Bit can be Propagated (see “Fault
propagation” on page 30) to the copper links on both ends of a fiber link. In case of a detected
fault, both ends of the link can be notified of the failure in this way. This is particularly useful
given that the distances fiber links are generally used over.
3.6.2
Fault propagation
In the converter (Fiber to Copper) application, the AR8033 supports the fault propagation
function. This function allows the fault in the Fiber link to be propagated to the twist-pair
connection and enables both sides of PC or router to detect the link down status. With link fault
propagation, system administrators can notice the link failure within a short period of time,
minimizing the loss caused by this problem.
To process fault propagation for 1000BASE-X providing that the two PHYs are both AR8033 in
converter mode:

1. 1000BASE-X restarts auto-negotiation when the Rx path of fiber on media converter-A
detects no signal or is link down.
2. If converter-A fiber keeps link down for about 40 ms, converter-A copper is shut off.
3. Because of fiber of converter-A in auto-negotiation, fiber of converter-B is also link down.
4. If converter-B fiber keeps link down for about 40 ms, converter-B copper is shut off.
To process fault propagation for the 100BASE-FX providing that the two PHYs are both AR8033
in converter mode:
1. The copper is shut off when the Rx path of fiber on media converter-A detects no signal or is
link down for about 40 ms.
2. The media converter-A sends Far-End-Fault message back on Tx fiber to alert right media
converter-B of link loss when the Rx path of its Fiber detects no signal or is link down.
3. The converter-B fiber is link down.
4. The copper is shut off after fiber of converter-B keeps link down for about 40 ms.

3.8 Power supplies
One external power supply is required:
3.3 V
Internal power rails are:
3.3 V
2.5 V
1.1 V
1.8/1.5 V
AR8033 integrates a switch regulator to convert 3.3 V to 1.1 V with high efficiency for core power
rail.
Two embedded LDOs are integrated to support 2.5, 1.5/1.8 V RGMII I/O voltages. When working
at 2.5 V RGMII I/O, connect the VDDH_REG pin to VDDIO_REG pin directly. The 2.5 V to
1.5/1.8 V regulator can be set to any mode because the output voltage is same as input which
causes regulator shutdown. When working at 2.5 V RGMII I/O, AR8033 can connect with 3.3 V
RGMII I/O. Because the input can bear 3.3 V logic signal, the output logic VoH and VoL can
satisfy the 3.3 V LVCMOS/LVTTL requirements. See “Electrical Characteristics” on page 43 for
parameter details.

3.9 Management interface
The management interface, compliance with IEEE 802.3u clause 22, provides access to the
internal registers of PHYs via the MDC and MDIO pins. MDC is sourced by the station
management entity to the PHY as the timing reference for transfer of information on the MDIO
signal.
MDIO is a bidirectional signal between the PHY and the STA. It is used to transfer control
information and status between the PHY and the STA. Control information is driven by the STA
synchronously with respect to MDC and is sampled synchronously by the PHY. Status information
is driven by the PHY synchronously with respect to MDC and is sampled synchronously by the
STA.
MDIO is an open-drain I/O and requires an external 1.5 kΩ pull-up resistor.

3.10 Timing synchronization
3.10.1
Synchronous Ethernet
Synchronous Ethernet (Sync-E) is a timing synchronization method implemented at the physical
layer.
The AR8033 transceiver supports synchronous Ethernet for 100BASE-TX and 1000BASE-T
applications by offering one recovered clock from the network line-side. This recovered clock
output (CLK_25M) can be configured to 25 MHz (default), 50 MHz, 62.5 MHz or 125 MHz, to
meet the ITU-T recommendations G.8261/Y.1361. The network node can use this recovered clock
to replace local clock sources and drive the local system. Therefore all distributed nodes in the
system use the same network clock to support synchronous and timing sensitive services like
T1/E1 service over Ethernet.
CLK_25M
Figure 3-13 shows the CLK_25M in reference to power-up and reset timing.

< 5ms
CLK_25M timing
When power is stable, CLK_25M is stable in 5 ms.
CLK_25M can output clock for system application. If not used, it can be left floated.
If used in synchronous Ethernet, CLK_25M is divided from the DSP clock recovered from the line
side; if not used in synchronous Ethernet or linked down, the 50, 62.5, or 125 MHz clock is
divided from PLL that references the local clock; the 25 MHz clock is from oscillator directly not
from PLL.
If CLK_25M output is used as a stable system reference, configure AR8033 to PLL ON mode by
setting bit[2] to 1 in PHY control debug register 0 (debug register 0x1F). In PLL OFF mode, when
entering hibernation mode, AR8033 shuts down internal PLL and thus causes CLK_25M output to
drop periodically. The 25 MHz clock does not drop periodically.
CLK_25M outputs 25 MHz clock from local crystal by default. When CLK_25 is configured to
output 50, 62.5 or 125 MHz clock, the output is reset to default 25 MHz after hardware reset.
See “MMD7 — CLK_25M clock select register” on page 108 for details.
In RGMII to fiber (1000BASE-X/100BASE-FX) mode, PHY recovers clock from received data.
This recovered clock is sent out from the RX_CLK pin. The RX_CLK pin can be used as Sync-E
recovered clock that is synchronous with the link partner output reference clock.
In 1000BASE-X mode, RX_CLK outputs 125 MHz; in 100BASE-FX mode, RX_CLK outputs
25 MHz.
NOTE
Clear to default value on hardware reset. If the fiber interface SerDes is not getting
any valid energy for about ten seconds, AR8033 enters hibernation mode (power
saving mode). In hibernation mode, RX_CLK is turned off. To enable RX_CLK to
always output valid clock, write MMD7 Register 0x8005[15] = 0 to turn off SerDes
hibernation mode.

The AR8033 device supports the low power mode with software power-down.
To enter the standard IEEE power-down mode, set the bit[11] POWER_DOWN of Control register

Hibernation mode yields very low power consumption compared with normal operation mode.
When cable is unplugged, AR8033 enters hibernation mode in about 10 seconds. When cable is

3.12 IEEE 802.3az
IEEE 802.3az provides a mechanism to reduce power consumption between data packets bursts.
Two operating states are supported: active state for normal data transfer, and Low Power Idle (LPI)
state for power saving between the data packet bursts.
The link partners enter LPI state by sending short refresh signals to maintain the link. In the lowpower state, PHY shuts down most of the analog and digital blocks. In Ethernet network where
systems stay in non-burst mode most of time, therefore over 90% power can be saved with LPI
enabled.
During link establishment, both link partners exchange information through auto-negotiation to
determine if both parties are LPI-capable.
Legacy Ethernet products are supported.
The link states for IEEE 802.3az include:
Active: Act in regular mode for transmitting or receiving data.
Sleep: Send specific signal to inform remote link partner of entering low-power state.
Quiet: No signal transmitted on media. Most of the analog and digital blocks are shut down.

3.13 SmartEEE
Qualcomm Atheros proprietary SmartEEE is compatible with IEEE 802.3az and allows legacy
MAC devices (without IEEE 802.az support) into systems providing full IEEE 802.3az support.
SmartEEE is enabled by default after power-on or hardware reset.
SmartEEE checks egress data flow at a specific interval to see if any packets being transmitted. If
no packet is detected, SmartEEE enters LPI mode. When packets come while the PHY is at LPI
mode, AR8033 takes 16.5 µs (typical) to wake up (as defined by IEEE 802.3az) and sends out the
data after the time configured in the register. AR8033 provides internal buffer for caching egress
data to ensure no packet loss before wakeup.
In SmartEEE mode, the RGMII Rx direction does not generate LPI pattern, thus only normal
packets and idle packets can appear on the RGMII. No Tx LPI pattern is generated for MACs
without EEE capability because LPI is generated inside PHY according to SmartEEE mechanism.
For MACs with EEE capability, SmartEEE control registers can be set to bypass SmartEEE
function MMD3 Register 0x805D[8].
NOTE
For typical application, adjusting the default register setting is not recommended.
The wait time before entering LPI mode is configured by MMD3 — SmartEEE control 2
register and bits[7:0] LPI_TIMER of MMD3 — SmartEEE control 3 register.
The wakeup time from LPI mode to sending out data can be configured by MMD3 —
SmartEEE control 1 register. This setting is used for collaboration with link partner for
customized purpose.

For example, if the link speed is 1000 Mbps, the clock frequency is 125 MHz and the clock
cycle is 8 ns, the WoL is active with a 32 × 8 ns low pulse.
When WoL interrupt occurs, the bit[0] INT_WOL_PTP in Interrupt status register (MII Register
0x13) is set to 1. This bit is cleared after read operation.
When the bit[0] INT_WOL_PTP in Interrupt enable register is set to 1, the external INT pin is
triggered when interrupt occurs. When the bit[0] INT_WOL_PTP is cleared to 0, the external INT
pin cannot be triggered even when interrupt occurs.

Function Description
Because PHY requires to receive packets from the line side, PHY cannot be powered
down. If the link partner supports Energy Efficient Ethernet function, both ends can use
EEE mode to save more power.
In LPI mode, the controller can use WoL function to turn off unused circuits to save
power. When receiving WoL interrupt from PHY, the controller can wake up to work.
– Control register — copper page or Control register — fiber page (MII Register 0x0)
• Bit[10] ISOLATE: When this bit is set to 1, the RGMII output pins are tri-stated.
The RGMII inputs are ignored. This bit can be used to save more power of PHY in
system power saving mode. When receiving WoL packet, this bit is cleared
automatically.
The bit[5] WOL_EN in MMD3 — PTP1588 control register (MMD3 0x8012) is used to
enable or disable WoL function.
Programming INT work mode and active polarity
1. Power on by default configuration.
If INT is configured as interrupt function by power-on strapping (LED_1000 externally
pulled-down), INT is active low.
If LED_1000 is pulled-up, write MMD7 0x8016[12] = 1 to enable the interrupt function
for the INT pin.
2. Select INT polarity.
Write MMD7 0x801A[13] = 0 to set interrupt active high (by default the value is 1, active
low).

1. If the transmitter side (MAC) does not add internal delay or PCB trace delay for GTX_CLK, the input
setup and hold time minimum must be within ±0.5 ns. GTX_CLK precise 2.4 ns delay can be added in
PHY internal by setting bit[8] RGMII_TX_CLK_DLY = 1 in SerDes test and system mode control register
(Debug Register 0x5).
2. For 1000BASE-T, both the rising and falling edges are used to sample the data.
3. For 10BASE-Te/100BASE-TX, only the rising edge is used to sample the data.
RX_CLK hardware reset adds typical 2 ns delay internally by default, so the MAC side has
sufficient setup and hold time for sampling. Figure 4-2 shows the RGMII output AC timing with

4.7 Clock characteristics
AR8033 supports both crystal and external clock input as reference. The basic principle for
selecting crystal and load capacitance is to make the oscillation stable at 25 MHz ± 50 ppm.
Crystal with 25 MHz ± 30 ppm frequency tolerance is preferred with two 27 pF NPO ceramic
capacitors. The capacitors can be changed according to actual crystal selection and board level test
results under full application temperature and voltage ranges.

1. Jitter characteristics is for 125 MHz output.
2. Jitter is broadband period jitter with 1000000 samples.
3. Output frequency stability depends on the crystal circuit oscillation frequency or input clock frequency
stability.
4. If CLK_25M is not used, it can be left floated. If it is used, external 22 Ω serial resistor is required for
signal integrity.
5. If it is used as a chip reference clock, pay attention to the input requirement, especially the jitter. For
reliable application such as Giga switch/PHY reference clock, a jitter attenuation circuit is required.

4.10 Power-on sequence, reset and clock
4.10.1
Power-on sequence
AR8033 only requires a single 3.3 V power supply input. The 1.1 V core and 2.5 V, 1.8/1.5 V
voltages are generated by AR8033 internal regulators. So the AR8033 power-on sequence to
establish the power rails stability is met internally.
4.10.2
Reset and clock timing
The AR8033 hardware reset requires the clock to take effect. Input clock including the crystal and
external input clock must be stable for at least 1 ms before RESET can be de-asserted. For chip
reliability, an external clock must be input after the power-on sequence.
Figure 4-5 shows the reset timing diagram.

When using crystal, clock is generated internally after the power is stable. To get
reliable power-on reset, keep asserting the reset low signal long enough to ensure that
the clock is stable and clock-to-reset (1 ms) requirement is satisfied.

Reset de-asserted (Normal working level)
Output
PPS
Output, kept driving high
2.5 V (VDDH_REG), internal RTC clock output
Input
SD
Input, weak PD
Input, VIH min = 0.7 V, VIL max = 0.4 V. Input
must be lower than 1.4 V.
1. When MDC/MDIO/RESET acts as an input, VIH min is 1.7 V, VIL max is 0.7 V, thus the chip
supports 2.5/3.3 V LVTTL/LVCMOS level signal input.
2. Power-on strapping pins are input when reset is asserted. They are output during normal
operation. External pull-up to VDDIO_REG for RGMII signal, and to 2.5 V (VDDH_REG)
for LED are recommended.
3. RESET and MDIO can be pulled up to 2.5 V (VDDH_REG) or 3.3 V.
4. SD is a backup solution used for signal detection. Because AR8033 integrates the signal
detection function in SerDes, leaving the pin floated is recommended. When the pin is pulled
high, valid signal is detected; when pulled low, no valid signal is detected.

5 Registers
Three types of registers are present on AR8033:
IEEE defined 32 MII registers, referred to as “MII Registers” in this document
MII registers are accessed directly through the management frame.
Debug registers defined by Qualcomm Atheros, referred to as “Debug Registers” in this
document
Write the offset address of debug register to 0x1D.
Read/write the data from/to 0x1E.
IEEE defined MDIO Manageable Device (MMD) register, referred to as “MDIO Interface
(MMD3/MMD7) Registers” in this document
MMD registers are accessed by reading/writing MMD access control register (MII register
0xD) and MMD access data register (MII register 0xE).
Example: Writing 0x8000 to register 0x0 of MMD3
1. Write 0x3 to MII register 0xD to set the device address of the MMD register.
2. Write 0x0 to MII register 0xE to set the offset address of the MMD register.
3. Write 0x4003 to MII register 0xD to keep the device address.
4. Read MII register 0xE to check the data from register 0x0 of MMD3.
5. Write 0x8000 to MII register 0xE, that is register 0x0 of MMD3.
NOTE
Read operation follows the process 1 to 4.
5.1 Register bit type
Table 5-1 shows the register bit types.

Register bit types
Description
LH
Register field with latching high function. If status is high, then the register is set to one and
remains set until a read operation is performed through the management interface or a reset
occurs.
LL
Register field with latching low function. If status is low, then the register is cleared to a zero and
remains cleared until a read operation is performed through the management interface or a
reset occurs.

Description
Retain
Value written to a register field takes effect without a software reset.
SC
Self-clear. Writing a one to this register causes the desired function to execute immediately, and
the register field clears to zero when the function is complete.
Update
The value written to the register field does not take effect until a software reset is executed. The
value can still be read after it is written.

For most MII Register offset addresses, each address has two pages. One for copper port, and the other for
fiber port.
When 0x1F[15] = 0, the MII register shows fiber page.
When 0x1F[15] = 1, the MII register shows copper page.
For typical application, poll the PHY specific status register to get link/speed/duplex information and then
configure MAC before sending and receiving packets.
