Media-independent interface

The media-independent interface (MII) was originally defined as a standard interface used to connect a Fast Ethernet (i.e., ) media access control (MAC) block to a PHY chip. The MII design has been extended to support reduced signals and increased speeds. Current variants are reduced media-independent interface, gigabit media-independent interface, reduced gigabit media-independent interface, serial gigabit media-independent interface (SGMII), 10-gigabit media-independent interface, XAUI, GBIC, SFP, SFF, XFP, and XFI. The equivalent of MII for 10-megabit Ethernet is the attachment unit interface (AUI).
Being media independent means that different types of PHY devices for connecting to different media (i.e. Twisted pair copper, fiber optic, etc.) can be used without redesigning or replacing the MAC hardware. The MII bus (standardized by IEEE 802.3u) connects different types of PHYs (physical transceivers) to media access controllers (MAC). Thus any MAC may be used with any PHY, independent of the network signal transmission media. The MII bus transfers data using 4-bit words (nibble) in each direction (4 transmit data bits, 4 receive data bits). The data is clocked at 25 MHz to achieve 100 Mbit/s speed.
The MII can be used to connect a MAC to an external PHY using a pluggable connector (shown in the picture above), or directly to a PHY chip which is on the same PCB. On a PC the CNR connector Type B carries MII bus interface signals.
The Management Data Input/Output (MDIO) Serial Management Interface (SMI) is used to transfer management information between MAC and PHY. At powerup the PHY usually adapts to whatever it is connected to (autonegotiation) unless settings are altered via the MDIO interface.
==Standard MII==
The standard MII features a small set of registers:〔(IEEE Standard 802.3: CSMA/CD Access Method and Physical Layer Specifications, Section Two ), Chapter 22.2.4 (retrieved on 15-10-2010)〕
* Basic Mode Configuration (#0)
* Status Word (#1)
* PHY Identification (#2, #3)
* Ability Advertisement (#4)
* Link Partner Ability (#5)
* Auto Negotiation Expansion (#6)
The MII Status Word is the most useful datum, since it may be used to detect whether an Ethernet NIC is connected to a network. It contains a bitmask with the following meaning:
0x8000 Capable of 100baseT4
0x7800 Capable of 10/100 HD/FD (most common)
0x0040 Preamble suppression permitted
0x0020 Autonegotiation complete
0x0010 Remote fault
0x0008 Capable of Autonegotiation
0x0004 Link established
0x0002 Jabber detected
0x0001 Extended MII register exist.
A more detailed reference on registers exported by MII-compatible PHY's
can be found looking at the Linux MII interface definition (include/linux/mii.h )
