[ECOS] MMI without PHY

[ECOS] MMI without PHY

[Privat]

Hi im working
on getting a Ecos conrolled ECU to communicate with a counterpart,
using only the ethernet 302.ab  MMI layer of Ecos with no phy present.
So whats the plan?

The plan, is to provide the whole os with a stump, creating the happy
ilusion of a ever present connection.  Has anyone done this previously?
If so, can you hook me up with a link to a repo/sampleconfig, where this
was done?

Please keep in mind that im still reading into the ecos source...

You mean 802.3ab

>MII layer of Ecos with no phy present.
Without PHY? Would you like to connect to a counterpart with using MII bus?
Please remember about electrical constrains of the MII bus.

First of all which controller/processor do you plan to use?

Best regards,

Sure.  It's done all the time in embedded devices that include an
Ethernet switch.  One port on the switch has a "reverse" MII interface
that connects directly the the microcontroller's MII interface.

Not really, all the examples I know of are proprietary.

Just take out whatever code you have that's trying to talk to a PHY,
then configure the microcontroller's MAC to 100M Full-Duplex (or
whatever you want for the link), and you're done.
