Peripheral EthernetEdit

The ethernet interface is made available through the i.MX8M fec interface which should be initialized on the device tree.

Device tree configurationEdit

ORCA SOMEdit

Here below an example of device tree configuration used on standard DAVE's kit for the ORCA SOM:

From imx8mp-mito8mplus-cb1001.dts :
