HBI

Host Bus Interface. The physical bus connecting the LAN9311/LAN9311i to

 

the host. Also referred to as the Host Bus.

 

 

HBIC

Host Bus Interface Controller. The hardware module that interfaces

 

theLAN9311/LAN9311i to the HBI.

 

 

Host

External system (Includes processor, application software, etc.)

Inbound

Refers to data input to the LAN9311/LAN9311i from the host

 

 

Level-Triggered Sticky Bit

This type of status bit is set whenever the condition that it represents is

 

asserted. The bit remains set until the condition is no longer true, and the

 

status bit is cleared by writing a zero.

 

 

lsb

Least Significant Bit

 

 

LSB

Least Significant Byte

 

 

MDI

Medium Dependant Interface

 

 

MDIX

Media Independent Interface with Crossover
