9.2.2 Write Sequence
In a write sequence, the host sends the 32-bit preamble, 2-bit start of frame, 2-bit op-code, 5-bit PHY
Address, 5-bit Register Address, 2-bit turn-around time, and finally the 16-bits of data. The MDIO pin
is three-stated throughout the write sequence.
The host processor is required to perform two contiguous 16-bit writes to complete a single DWORD
transfer. No ordering requirement exists. The host may access either the low or high word first, as long
as the next write is performed to the opposite word. If a write to the same word is performed, the device
disregards the transfer.
Note: SMI writes must not be performed to unused register addresses.
9.3
PHY Management Interface (PMI)
The PHY Management Interface (PMI) is used to access the internal PHYs as well as the external
PHY on the MII pins (in MAC modes only). The PMI operates at 2.5MHz, and implements the IEEE
802.3 management protocol, providing read/write commands for PHY configuration.
A read or write is performed using the frame format shown in Table 9.2. All addresses and data are
transferred msb first. Data bytes are transferred little endian.

Note 9.4
The turn-around time (TA) is used to avoid bus contention during a read cycle. For a read,
the external PHY drives the second bit of the turn-around time to 0, and then drives the
msb of the read data in the following cycle. For a write, the LAN9313/LAN9313i drives the
first bit of the turnaround time to 1, the second bit of the turnaround time to 0, and then
the msb of the write data in the following clock cycle.
Note 9.5 In the IDLE condition, the MDIO output is three-stated and pulled high externally.
The internal PHYs and optional external PHY (in MAC modes) are accessed via the PHY Management
Interface Access Register (PMI_ACCESS) and PHY Management Interface Data Register
(PMI_DATA). These registers allow read and write operations to all PHY registers. Refer to Section
13.1.6, "PHY Management Interface (PMI)," on page 207 for detailed information on these registers.
EEPROM Loader PHY Register Access
The PMI is also used by the EEPROM Loader to load the PHY registers with various configuration
strap values. The PHY Management Interface Access Register (PMI_ACCESS) and PHY Management
Interface Data Register (PMI_DATA) are also accessible as part of the Register Data burst sequence
of the EEPROM Loader. Refer to Section 8.2.4, "EEPROM Loader," on page 113 for additional
information.
