BIT BIT NAME DEFAULT DESCRIPTION
16 PAUSE_ADV 0, R/W Pause Advertise
This bit is loaded from EEPROM at power-up and is used to configure the internal PHY to
advertise the capability of 802.3x pause during auto-negotiation. Setting this bit to 1 causes
the pause function to be advertised if the PHY has also been configured to advertise full-
duplex capability (See the ANEG_SEL bits in this table).
15-13 ANEG_SEL <000>, R/W Auto-negotiation Select
These bits are loaded from EEPROM at power-up and are used to define the default state of
the internal PHY auto-negotiation logic. These bits are encoded as follows:
000 Auto-negotiation disabled, force 10 Mb/s half-duplex
010 Auto-negotiation disabled, force 100 Mb/s half-duplex
100 Auto-negotiation disabled, force 10 Mb/s full-duplex
110 Auto-negotiation disabled, force 100 Mb/s full-duplex
001 Auto-negotiation enabled, advertise 10 Mb/s half- and full-duplex
011 Auto-negotiation enabled, advertise 10/100 Mb/s half-duplex
101 Auto-negotiation enabled, advertise 100 Mb/s half- and full-duplex
111 Auto-negotiation enabled, advertise 10/100 Mb/s half- and full-duplex
12 EXT_PHY 0, R/W External PHY Support
Act as a stand-alone MAC. When set, this bit enables the MII and disables the internal PHY
(sets bit 9).
11 RESERVED 0, RO RESERVED
(reads return 0)
10 PHY_RST 0, R/W Reset internal PHY
Asserts reset to internal PHY. Can be used to cause PHY to reload options from the CFG
register. This bit does not self clear when set.
9 PHY_DIS 0, R/W Disable internal PHY
When set to a 1, this bit forces the internal PHY to its low-power state.
8 EUPHCOMP 0, R/W DP83810 Descriptor Compatibility
When set, the DP83816 device uses DP83810 compatible (but single-fragment) descriptor
format. Descriptors are four 32-bit words in length, but the fragment count field is ignored.
When clear, the DP83816 device only fetches three 32-bit words in descriptor fetches with
the third word being the fragment pointer.
7 REQALG 0, R/W PCI Bus Request Algorithm
Selects mode for making requests for the PCI bus. When set to 0 (default), the DP83816
device uses an aggressive request scheme. When set to 1, the DP83816 device uses a more
conservative scheme.
6 SB 0, R/W Single Back-off
Setting this bit to 1 forces the transmitter back-off state machine to always back-off for a
single 802.3 slot time instead of following the 802.3 random back-off algorithm. A 0 (default)
allows normal transmitter back-off operation.
5 POW 0, R/W Program Out of Window Timer
This bit controls when the Out of Window collision timer begins counting its 512 bit slot time.
A 0 causes the timer to start after the SFD is received. A 1 causes the timer to start after the
first bit of the preamble is received.
4 EXD 0, R/W Excessive Deferral Timer disable
Setting this bit to 1 inhibits transmit errors due to excessive deferral. This inhibits the setting
of the ED status, and the logging of the TxExcessiveDeferral MIB counter.
3 PESEL 0, R/W Parity Error Detection Action
This bit controls the assertion of SERR when a data parity error is detected while the
DP83816 device is acting as the bus master. When set, parity errors do not result in the
assertion of SERR. When reset, parity errors result in the assertion of SERR, indicating a
system error. This bit should be set to a one by software if the driver can handle recovery
from and reporting of data parity errors.
2 BROM_DIS 0, R/W Disable Boot ROM interface
When set to 1, this bit inhibits the operation of the Boot ROM interface logic.
1 RESERVED 0, RO RESERVED
(reads return 0)
0 BEM 0, R/W Big Endian Mode
When set, the DP83816 device performs bus-mastered data transfers in big-endian mode.
Note that access to register space is unaffected by the setting of this bit. .
