Description

 

 

 

 

4

TXFLOWEN

 

Transmit flow control enable bit. This bit determines if incoming pause frames are acted upon

 

 

 

in full-duplex mode. Incoming pause frames are not acted upon in half-duplex mode,

 

 

 

regardless of the TXFLOWEN bit setting. The RXMBPENABLE bits determine whether or not

 

 

 

received pause frames are transferred to memory.

 

 

0

Transmit flow control is disabled. Full-duplex mode: incoming pause frames are not acted

 

 

 

upon.

 

 

1

Transmit flow control is enabled. Full-duplex mode: incoming pause frames are acted upon.

 

 

 

 

3

RXBUFFERFLOWEN

 

Receive buffer flow control enable bit.

 

 

0

Receive flow control is disabled. Half-duplex mode: no flow control generated collisions are

 

 

 

sent. Full-duplex mode: no outgoing pause frames are sent.

 

 

1

Receive flow control is enabled. Half-duplex mode: collisions are initiated when receive buffer

 

 

 

flow control is triggered. Full-duplex mode: outgoing pause frames are sent when receive flow

 

 

 

control is triggered.

 

 

 

 

2

Reserved

0

Reserved

 

 

 

 

1

LOOPBACK

 

Loopback mode. The loopback mode forces internal full-duplex mode regardless of the

 

 

 

FULLDUPLEX bit setting. The loopback bit should be changed only when MII bit is

 

 

 

deasserted.

 

 

0

Loopback mode is disabled.

 

 

1

Loopback mode is enabled.

 

 

 

 

0

FULLDUPLEX

 

Full-duplex mode.

 

 

0

Half-duplex mode is enabled.

 

 

1

Full-duplex mode is enabled.
