7.3.4 MII Serial Management Channel Timing (MDIO,MDC)
Table 7-4 provides information on the MII serial management channel signal timing, shown
in Figure 7-4. The FEC functions correctly with a maximum MDC frequency in excess of
2.5 MHz. The exact upper bound is under investigation.
Figure 7-4 shows the MII serial management channel timing diagram.
