EEPROM Interface

5.6.13PHY Register Address Data (Words 10h, 11h, and 13h - 1Eh)

These settings are specific to individual platform configurations for the 82541xx and 82547GI/EI and should not be altered from the reference design unless instructed to do so. Future Intel Ethernet controllers might use this space differently.

5.6.14OEM Reserved Words (Words 10h, 11h, 13h - 1Fh)

Words 10h, 11h, and 13h through 1Fh of the EEPROM are reserved areas for general OEM use for all Ethernet controllers except the 82546GB/EB.

5.6.15EEPROM Size (Word 12h)

This word is only applicable to 82541xx and 82547GI/EI Ethernet controllers that use SPI EEPROMs. Unused bits are reserved and should be programmed to 0b. Bits 15:13 and 8:0 are reserved (see Table 5-7).

5.6.16Common Power (Word 12h)

For all Ethernet controllers except the 82541xx and 82547GI/EI, if the signature bits are valid and Power Management is not disabled, the value in this field is used in the PCI Power Management Data Register when the Data_Select field of the Power Management Control/Status Register (PMCSR) is set to 8. This setting indicates the power usage and heat dissipation of the common logic that is shared by both functions in tenths of a watt.

5.6.17Software Defined Pins Control (Word 10h1, 20h)

This field contains initial settings for the Software Defined Pins (SPD). The default value for the upper byte (bits 15:8) is DFh; the default value for the lower byte (bits 7:0) is DEh.

1.Applicable to the 82546GB/EB only.
