PRODUCTION DATA
Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE), defined by IEEE 802.3az, is a capability integrated into Layer 1 (Physical Layer) and Layer 2 (Data Link Layer) to operate in Low Power Idle (LPI) mode. In LPI mode, power is saved during periods of low packet utilization. EEE defines the protocol to enter and exit LPI mode without dropping the link or corrupting packets.
The DP83826 EEE supports 100-Mbps and 10-Mbps speeds. It is supported for both MII and RMII MAC interface. In 10BASE-Te operation, EEE operates with a reduced transmit amplitude that is fully interoperable with a 10BASE-T PHY.
EEE must be enabled through register programming. The steps below describe how to configure the DP83826 for EEE through the MDC/MDIO interface.
