30.3.3.4 MII Management Frame Register (MMFR)

The MMFR is accessed by the user and does not reset to a defined value. The MMFR register is used to
communicate with the attached MII compatible PHY devices, providing read/write access to their MII
registers. Performing a write to the MMFR will cause a management frame to be sourced unless the MSCR
has been programmed to 0. In the case of writing to MMFR when MSCR = 0, if the MSCR register is then
written to a non-zero value, an MII frame will be generated with the data previously written to the MMFR.
This allows MMFR and MSCR to be programmed in either order if MSCR is currently zero.

bit is cleared, reception is immediately stopped and transmission is stopped after a bad CRC is
appended to any currently transmitted frame. The ETHER_EN bit is altered by hardware under the
following conditions:
• ECR[RESET] is set by software, in which case ETHER_EN will be cleared
• An error condition causes the EIR[XFERR], or EIR[RFERR] bits to set, in which case
ETHER_EN will be cleared
When this bit is set, the equivalent of a hardware reset is performed but it is local to the FEC.
ETHER_EN is cleared and all other FEC registers take their reset values. Also, any
transmission/reception currently in progress is abruptly aborted. This bit is automatically cleared by
hardware during the reset sequence. The reset sequence takes approximately 8 system clock
cycles after RESET is written with a 1.

Operation code. This field must be programmed to 0x10 (read) or 0x01 (write) to generate a valid
MII management frame. A value of 0x11 will produce "read" frame operation while a value of 0x00
will produce "write" frame operation, but these frames will not be MII compliant.
