[FAQ] DP83826E: DP83826E: How do I determine the MSE/SNR levels using DP83826?

Part Number: DP83826E

Tool/software:

MSE/SNR can be determined via Reg 0x225. Please note that this is an extended register and needs 4-step extended register access to read appropriate values.

Once the hex value is obtained, convert to decimal and compare against MSE.

The levels for SNR would be:

SNR > 22dB = MSE < 410 (excellent link)

19.5 < SNR < 22 = 410 < MSE < 750 (good link)

SNR < 19.5 = MSE > 750 (poor link)
