SMSC LAN9311, LAN9311i Virtual PHY Special Control/Status Register (VPHY_SPECIAL_CONTROL_STATUS)

Two Port 10/100 Managed Ethernet Switch with 16-Bit Non-PCI CPU Interface

Datasheet

14.2.8.8Virtual PHY Special Control/Status Register (VPHY_SPECIAL_CONTROL_STATUS)

Offset:	1DCh	Size:	32 bits
Index (decimal):	31

This read/write register contains a current link speed/duplex indicator and SQE control.

BITS				DESCRIPTION				TYPE	DEFAULT
31:16	RESERVED							RO	-
	(See Note 14.42)
15	RESERVED							RO	-
14	Switch Looopback MII							R/W	0b
	When set, transmissions from the switch fabric Port 0(Host MAC) are not
	sent to the Host MAC. Instead, they are looped back into the switch engine.
	From the MAC viewpoint, this is effectively a FAR LOOPBACK.
	If loopback is enabled during half-duplex operation, then the Enable Receive
	Own Transmit bit in the Port x MAC Receive Configuration Register
	(MAC_RX_CFG_x) must be set for this port. Otherwise, the switch fabric will
	ignore receive activity when transmitting in half-duplex mode.
	This mode works even if the Isolate bit of the Virtual PHY Basic Control
	Register (VPHY_BASIC_CTRL) is set.
13:8	RESERVED							RO	-
7	Switch Collision Test MII							R/W	0b
	When set, the collision signal to the switch fabric Port 0(Host MAC) is active
	during transmission from the switch engine.
	It is recommended that this bit be used only when using loopback mode.
6:5	RESERVED							RO	-
4:2	Current Speed/Duplex Indication							RO	Note 14.43
	This field indicates the current speed and duplex of the Virtual PHY link.
		[4]	[3]	[2]	Speed		Duplex
		0	0	0		RESERVED
		0	0	1	10Mbps		half-duplex
		0	1	0	100Mbps		half-duplex
		0	1	1		RESERVED
		1	0	0		RESERVED
		1	0	1	10Mbps		full-duplex
		1	1	0	100Mbps		full-duplex
		1	1	1		RESERVED
1	RESERVED							RO	-
0	SQEOFF							R/W	Note 14.45
	This bit enables/disables the Signal Quality Error (Heartbeat) test.							NASR
	0: SQE test enabled							Note 14.44
	1: SQE test disabled
