1.3 Auto- Negotiation
Ability
Always returns a ‘1’ for this bit to indicate
that the PHY is capable of Auto-
Negotiation.
Returns 1 1
1.2 Link Status11 = Link is up
0 = Link is down
Latches '0' if Link Status goes down.
Clears to current Link Status on read.

1.1 Jabber Detect Always returns a ‘0’ for this bit since
Jabber Detect is not supported.
Returns 0 0
1.0 Extended Capability Always returns a ‘0’ for this bit since no
extended register set is supported.
Returns 0 0
1.When high, the link is valid: synchronization of the link has been obtained and Auto-Negotiation (if present and enabled)
has completed.
When low, a valid link has not been established. Either link synchronization has failed or Auto-Negotiation (if present and
enabled) has failed to complete.
Regardless of whether Auto-Negotiation is enabled or disabled, there can be some delay to the deassertion of this signal
following the loss of synchronization of a previously successful link. This is due to the Auto-Negotiation state machine which
requires that synchronization is lost for an entire link timer duration before changing state. For more information, see the 802.3
specification.
