DP83869HM: Query regarding MAC to MAC mode for bridge connection

Part Number: DP83869HM

Tool/software:

Hello, in this if we want to have MAC to MAC connection, what will be the strap setting of this pin?

  • Hi Arthur, 

    I suggest to use mode 1 because RGMII is more time-sensitive protocol than SGMII is. Configuring PHY to expect the MAC to be on the RGMII side may lead to less timing issues. 

    Best,
