DATASHEET
14.4.2.9 Port x PHY Special Modes Register (PHY_SPECIAL_MODES_x)
This read/write register is used to control the special modes of the Port x PHY.
Note: This register is re-written by the EEPROM Loader following the release of reset or a RELOAD
command. Refer to Section 10.2.4, "EEPROM Loader," on page 150 for more information.
Note 14.58 Register bits designated as NASR are reset when the Port x PHY Reset is generated via
the Reset Control Register (RESET_CTL). The NASR designation is only applicable when
the Reset (PHY_RST) bit of the Port x PHY Basic Control Register
(PHY_BASIC_CONTROL_x) is set.
Note 14.59 The default value of this field is determined by a combination of the configuration straps
autoneg_strap_x, speed_strap_x, and duplex_strap_x. If the autoneg_strap_x is 1, then
the default MODE[2:0] value is 111b. Else, the default value of this field is determined by
the remaining straps. MODE[2]=0, MODE[1]=(speed_strap_1 for Port 1 PHY,
speed_strap_2 for Port 2 PHY), and MODE[0]=(duplex_strap_1 for Port 1 PHY,
duplex_strap_2 for Port 2 PHY). Configuration strap values are latched upon the de-
assertion of a chip-level reset as described in Section 4.2.4, "Configuration Straps," on
page 40. Refer to Section 4.2.4, "Configuration Straps," on page 40 for configuration strap
definitions.
Note 14.60 The default value of this field is determined by the phy_addr_sel_strap configuration strap.
Refer to Section 7.1.1, "PHY Addressing," on page 82 for additional information.

PHY Mode (MODE[2:0])
This field controls the PHY mode of operation. Refer to Table 14.10 for a
definition of each mode.

4:0 PHY Address (PHYADD)
The PHY Address field determines the MMI address to which the PHY will
respond and is also used for initialization of the cipher (scrambler) key. Each
PHY must have a unique address. Refer to Section 7.1.1, "PHY
Addressing," on page 82 for additional information.
Note: No check is performed to ensure that this address is unique from
the other PHY addresses (Port 1 PHY, Port 2 PHY, and Virtual
PHY).
