11.3.5 MAC Address High Register (MAHR)
MAHR is a 32 -bit readable/writable register that specifies the upper 32 bits of the 48-bit MAC
address. The settings in this register are normally made in the initialization process after a reset.
The MAC address setting must not be changed while the transmitting and receiving functions are
enabled. To switch the MAC address setting, return the EtherC and E-DMAC to their initial states
by means of the SWR bit in EDMR before making settings again.

R/W Description
R/W MAC Address Bits
These bits are used to set the upper 32 bits of the MAC
address.
If the MAC address is 01-23-45-67-89-AB
(hexadecimal), the value set in this register is
H'01234567.
11.3.6 MAC Address Low Register (MALR)
MALR is a 32-bit readable/writable register that specifies the lower 16 bits of the 48-bit MAC
address. The settings in this register are normally made in the initialization process after a reset.
The MAC address setting must not be changed while the transmitting and receiving functions are
enabled. To switch the MAC address setting, return the EtherC and E-DMAC to their initial states
by means of the SWR bit in EDMR before making settings again.

R/W MAC Address Bits 15 to 0
These bits are used to set the lower 16 bits of the
MAC address.
If the MAC address is 01-23-45-67-89-AB
(hexadecimal), the value set in this register is
H'000089AB.
