7.14.4 Management Data Input/Output (MDIO)
The Management Data Input/Output (MDIO) module implements the 802.3 serial management interface to
interrogate and controls up to 32 Ethernet PHY(s) connected to the device, using a shared two-wire bus.
Application software uses the MDIO module to configure the auto-negotiation parameters of each PHY
attached to the EMAC, retrieve the negotiation results, and configure required parameters in the EMAC
module for correct operation. The module is designed to allow almost transparent operation of the MDIO
interface, with very little maintenance from the core processor.
The EMAC control module is the main interface between the device core processor, the MDIO module,
and the EMAC module. The relationship between these three components is shown in Figure 7-58.
The MDIO uses the same pins for the MII, GMII, and RMII modes. Standalone pins are included for the
RGMII mode due to specific voltage requirements. Only one mode can be used at a time. The mode used
is selected at device reset based on the MACSEL[1:0] configuration pins (for more detailed information,
see Section 3, Device Configuration). Table 7-70 above shows which multiplexed pin are used in the MII,
GMII, and RMII modes on the MDIO.
For more detailed information on the EMAC/MDIO, see the TMS320C645x DSP EMAC/MDIO Module
Reference Guide (literature number SPRU975) .
7.14.4.1 MDIO Device-Specific Information
Clocking Information
The MDIO clock is based on a divide-down of the SYSCLK3 (from the PLL1 controller) and is specified to
run up to 2.5 MHz, although typical operation is 1.0 MHz. Since the peripheral clock frequency is variable,
the application software or driver controls the divide-down amount.
