3.3 Programming Options

To update or read the DP83826A registers, the user can simply connect the DP83826A EVM to a computer and use the USB-2-MDIO software. The EVM is designed to enable and test strap functionality through software without the need to modify the board and hardware. This allows for simple hardware and software support for those that do not have MDIO communication capability.

More information on how to access the DP83826A MDIO status and control registers can be found in the USB-2-MDIO Software User's Guide .
