7.22 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 GbE
switch subsystem, retrieve the negotiation results, and configure required parameters in the GbE switch subsystem
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. For more information, see the Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) Switch
Subsystem for KeyStone Devices User Guide in ‘‘Related Documentation from Texas Instruments’’ on page 69.
