Hi,
The revision history showed that this update has included this feature "updated Ethernet interface for reading the MAC address from the driver, if a unique MAC address is available in the driver".
Does anyone know what this means? Is there any sample code that can explain this new feature?
Thank you.
There is no difference and your code is correct, continue to use it.
The discussion is about an extra feature that is rarely used, for example, with LAN91C111. This ethernet controller supports "Optional Configuration via Serial EEPROM Interface" Read the LAN91C111 datasheet, section 7.6 Serial EEPROM Interface
