This chapter discusses the operation of the FEC.
3.1 Transceiver Connection
The FEC supports both an MII interface for 10/100 Mbps Ethernet and a seven-wire serial
interface for 10-Mbps Ethernet. The interface mode is selected by
R_CNTRL[MII_MODE], described in Section
6.2.20, ÒReceive Control Register
(R_CNTRL).Ó Table 3-1 shows the 18 MII interface signals that are deÞned by the 802.3
standard.
Serial-mode connections to the external transceiver are shown in Table 3-2.
