5.44 MAC Address High Bytes Register (MACADDRHI)
The MAC address high bytes register (MACADDRHI) is shown in Figure 83 and described in Table 81.

Table 81. MAC Address High Bytes Register (MACADDRHI) Field Descriptions
Bit Field Value Description
31-24 MACADDR2 0-FFh MAC source address bits 23-16 (byte 2)
23-16 MACADDR3 0-FFh MAC source address bits 31-24 (byte 3)
15-8 MACADDR4 0-FFh MAC source address bits 39-32 (byte 4)
7-0 MACADDR5 0-FFh MAC source address bits 47-40 (byte 5). Bit 40 is the group bit. It is forced to 0 and read as 0.
Therefore, only unicast addresses are represented in the address table.
5.45 MAC Index Register (MACINDEX)
The MAC index register (MACINDEX) is shown in Figure 84 and described in Table 82.

Bit Field Value Description
31-3 Reserved 0 Reserved
2-0 MACINDEX 0-7h MAC address index. The host must write the index into the RX ADDR RAM in the MACINDEX field,
followed by the upper 32-bits of address, followed by the lower 16-bits of address (with control bits). The
53-bit indexed RAM location is written when the low location is written. All 32 address RAM locations
must be initialized prior to enabling packet reception.
