PRE-PROGRAMMED EUI-48

OR EUI-64 NODE ADDRESS
The 6-byte EUI-48™ node address value of the
11AA02E48 is stored in array locations 0xFA through
0xFF, as shown in Figure 7-2. The first three bytes are
the Organizationally Unique Identifier (OUI) assigned
to Microchip by the IEEE Registration Authority. The
remaining three bytes are the Extension Identifier, and
The 11AA02EXX is programmed at the factory with a
globally unique node address stored in the upper 1/4 of
the array and write-protected through the STATUS
register. The remaining 1,536 bits are available for
application use.

Write-Protected
Node Address Block
7.2.1
FFh
The pre-programmed EUI-48 node address of the
11AA02E48 can easily be encapsulated at the
application level to form a globally unique, 64-bit node
address for systems utilizing the EUI-64 standard. This
is done by adding 0xFFFE between the OUI and the
Extension Identifier, as shown below.
7.1
Factory-Programmed Write
Protection
In order to help guard against accidental corruption of
the node address, the BP1 and BP0 bits of the STATUS
register are programmed at the factory to ‘0’ and ‘1’,
respectively, as shown in the following table.
Note:
As an alternative, the 11AA02E64
features an EUI-64 node address that can
be used in EUI-64 applications directly
without the need for encapsulation,
thereby simplifying system software. See
Section 7.3 “EUI-64™ Node Address
(11AA02E64)” for details.

This protects the upper 1/4 of the array (0xC0 to 0xFF)
from write operations. This array block can be utilized
for writing by clearing the BP bits with a Write Status
Register (WRSR) instruction. Note that if this is
performed, care must be taken to prevent overwriting
the node address value.
