Extended Register Space Access

The SMI function of the DP83TC815-Q1 supports read or write access to the extended register set using registers REGCR (0x0D) and ADDAR (0x0E) and the MDIO Manageable Device (MMD) indirect method defined in IEEE 802.3ah Draft for Clause 22 for accessing the Clause 45 extended register set.

Note:

Registers with addresses above 0x001F require indirect access. For indirect access, a sequence of register writes must be followed. The MMD value defines the Device Address (DEVAD) of the register set. The DEVAD must be configured in the register 0x000D (REGCR) bits [4:0] for indirect access

The DP83TC815-Q1 supports 3 MMD device addresses:

  1. MMD1F (Vendor specific registers): DEVAD [4:0] = ‘11111’
  2. MMD1 (IEEE 802.3az defined registers): DEVAD [4:0] = ‘00001’
  3. MMD3 (IEEE 802.3az defined registers): DEVAD [4:0] = ‘00011’

Table 7-38 MMD Register Space Division
MMD REGISTER SPACEREGISTER ADDRESS SETTING
MMD1F0x000 - 0x0DF0
MMD10x1000 - 0x1836
MMD30x3000 - 0x3001

The following sections describe how to perform operations on the extended register set using register REGCR and ADDAR. The descriptions use the device address for MMD1F register accesses (DEVAD[4:0] = 11111).
