For write transactions, the station-management entity writes data to the addressed TLK10x, thus
eliminating the requirement for MDIO Turnaround. The Turnaround time is filled by the management entity
by inserting <10>. Figure 4-4 shows the timing relationship for a typical MII register write access. The
frame structure and general read/write transactions are shown in Table 4-2, Figure 4-3, and Figure 4-4.
