A register configuration method of an electric port module and the electric port module thereof

Abstract

The invention provides a register configuration method of an electric port module and the electric port module. The register configuration method of the electric port module comprises the following steps that S1, an address used for achieving expansion of a control parameter table is distributed in an MCU; S2, real-time detection is carried out, when a control instruction of write operation or read operation is received, password verification is achieved, and after the password verification is passed, the authority for achieving the write operation or the read operation on the extension control parameter table is obtained; And S3, the MCU executes write operation or read operation on the PHY register according to the control instruction of the write operation or the read operation of the host. The function of reading and writing the PHY register is achieved by adding the extended control parameter table, meanwhile, a password protection function is added for operation of the extended control parameter table, the register configuration requirement of a switch manufacturer for the electric port module is met, the application of the electric port module is expanded, and the market prospect is wide.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a register configuration method, in particular to a register configuration method of an electrical port module, and to an electrical port module using the register configuration method. Background technique [0002] Electrical port module, also known as optical port-to-electrical port module, is a photoelectric conversion optical module, and it is also a type of module that is often used in optical communication. It is widely used, such as 10G electrical port module. Since the 10G electrical port module on the market is used as a signal forwarding device, however, many switch manufacturers need to configure the PHY register of the 10G electrical port module to realize its special application. [0003] The current gold finger terminal of the electrical port module only provides I 2 C access interface, and the PHY chip is generally accessed through MDIO, which makes the host unable to pass the I 2 The C interface is used to rea...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] The current gold finger terminal of the electrical port module only provides I 2 C access interface, and the PHY chip is generally accessed through MDIO, which makes the host unable to pass the I 2 The C interface is used to read and write the PHY register where the PHY chip is located, and the PHY chip itself integrates many functions. In some special applications, the PHY chip register needs to be configured, and the electrical port module externally accesses the I 2 The C interface cannot meet this requirement
