ZHCSJ67A December 2018 – August 2019 DP83825I
PRODUCTION DATA.
There are several loopback options within the DP83825I that test and verify various functional blocks within the PHY. Enabling loopback modes allow for in-circuit testing of the digital and analog data paths. The DP83825I may be configured to any one of the Near-End Loopback modes or to the Far-End (reverse) Loopback mode. MII Loopback is configured using the Basic Mode Control Register (BMCR, address 0x0000). All other loopback modes are enabled using the BIST Control Register (BISCR, address 0x0016). Except where otherwise noted, loopback modes are supported for all speeds (10/100 Mbps and all MAC interfaces).
