Introduction

Note

Please note, this page is currently under development.

The Ethernet PHY drivers are currently part of the Ethphy module and are present at source/board/ethphy/enet/rtos_drivers.

Currently the following ethernet PHY drivers are supported out-of-box with the SDK:

• TI DP83867 RGMII PHY driver.
• TI DP83869 RGMII PHY driver.
• TI DP83822 RMII PHY driver.
• TI DP83826 RMII PHY driver.
• TI DP83TG720 Automotive PHY driver.
• TI DP83TC812 Automotive PHY driver.

Using Sysconfig GUI

All the above mentioned PHY drivers can be integrated using the Sysconfig GUI.

• Select the desired device (ETHPHY (ENET CPSW/ICSS) -> ETHPHY Device) in Sysconfig GUI. This will update the auto-generated ti_board_config.c file with information about the selected device.
• Modify the "PHY address" and "Strapped Mode" as required.

• The default extendedCfg for each device is automatically populated in the "Extended Configuration" text box. The extended configuration values can be modified (if needed) and the ti_board_config.c file is automatically updated with the new values.
