Part Number: DP83869HM
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430F5529

Hi there

DP83869HM

The evaluation board of your IC has an MCU on it.
Do we need the MCU to design the actual product?

If you don't need the MCU
After writing to the IC, how is the content saved?

  • Hello,

    If you are referring to the MSP430F5529, this is used to easily configure the PHY's registers as well as check the status registers of it. It is not the only way to program/check the PHY's registers. The main connections you need are the SMI (Serial management interface), MDC and MDIO. Please refer to section 9.4.9 in the datasheet.

    Sincerely,

    Gerome
