The first eight registers of the MII register set are defined by the MII specification. In addition to these required registers are
several Altima-specific registers. There are reserved registers and/or bits that are for Altima internal use only. (Register num-
bers are in Decimal format, the values are in Hex format).
Legend:

Note
When writing to registers it is recommended that a read/modify/write operation be performed, as unin-
tended bits may get set to unwanted states. This applies to all registers, including those with reserved
bits.
