Description

Value

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Link speed setting

 

 

 

Indicates the configured speed of the link.

 

 

 

These bits are either forced by software when forcing the link

 

 

 

speed through the CTRL.SPEED control bits, automatically set

 

 

 

by hardware when Auto-Speed Detection is enabled or reflect

 

 

 

the internal indication inputs from the PHY.

 

 

 

When Auto-Speed Detection is enabled, the Ethernet

SPEED

7:6

X

controller’s speed is configured only once after the internal link

 

 

 

is asserted.

 

 

 

Speed indication is mapped as follows:

 

 

 

00b = 10 Mb/s

 

 

 

01b = 100 Mb/s

 

 

 

10b = 1000 Mb/s

 

 

 

11b = 1000 Mb/s

 

 

 

These bits are not valid in TBI mode/internal SerDes.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Auto Speed Detection Value

 

 

 

Indicates the speed sensed by the Ethernet controller from the

ASDV

9:8

X

internal PHY. The ASDV status bits are provided for diagnostics

purposes. The ASD function can be initiated by software writing

 

 

 

a logic 1b to the CTRL_EXT.ASDCHK bit. The resultant speed

 

 

 

detection is reflected in these bits. See Section 13.4.6 for

 

 

 

details.

 

 

 

 

Reserved

10

X

Reserved

Reads as 0b.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

PCI Bus speed indication

PCI66

11

X

When set, indicates that the PCI bus is running at 66 MHz.

Reflects the M66EN input pin.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Note: Not applicable to the 82547GI/EI.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

PCI Bus Width indication

BUS641

12

X

When set, indicates that the Ethernet controller is sitting on a

 

 

 

64-bit PCI/PCI-X bus. BUS64 is determined by REQ64#

 

 

 

assertion.

 

 

 

 

PCIX_MODE1

13

X

PCI-X Mode indication

 

 

 

When set to 1b, the Ethernet controller is operating in PCI-X

 

 

 

Mode; otherwise, the Ethernet controller is operating in

 

 

 

conventional PCI Mode.

 

 

 

 

PCIXSPD1

15:14

X

PCI-X Bus Speed Indication

 

 

 

Attempts to indicate the speed of the bus when operating in a

 

 

 

PCI-X bus. Only valid when STATUS.PCIX_Mode = 1b.

 

 

 

00b = 50-66 MHz

 

 

 

01b = 66-100 MHz

 

 

 

10b = 100-133 MHz

 

 

 

11b = Reserved

 

 

 

 

Reserved

31:16

0b

Reserved

 

 

 

Reads as 0b.

 

 

 

 

1.Not applicable to the 82540EP/EM, 82541xx, or 82547GI/EI.
