DS00002267A-page 3 LAN9117 1.0 GENERAL DESCRIPTION The LAN9117 is a full-featured, single-chip 10/100 Ethernet controller designed for embedded applications where performance, flexibility, ease of integration and system cost control are required. The LAN9117 has been specifically architected to provide the highest performance possible for any 16-bit application. The LAN9117 is fully IEEE 802.3 10BASET and 802.3u 100BASE-TX compliant. The LAN9117 includes an integrated Ethernet MAC and PHY with a high-performance SRAM-like slave interface. The simple, yet highly functional host bus interface provides a glue-less connection to most common 16-bit microprocessors and microcontrollers as well as 32-bit microprocessors exposing a 16-bit external bus. The LAN9117 includes large transmit and receive data FIFOs with a high-speed host bus interface to accommodate high bandwidth, high latency applications. In addition, the LAN9117 memory buffer architecture allows the most efficient use of memory resources by optimizing packet granularity. Applications The LAN9117 is well suited for many medium-high-performance embedded applications, including: • • • • • • • Medium-range cable, satellite and IP set-top boxes High-end audio distribution systems Digital video recorders DVD Recorders/Players High-definition televisions Digital media clients/servers Home gateways The LAN9117 also supports features which reduce or eliminate packet loss. Its internal 16-KByte SRAM can hold over 200 received packets. If the receive FIFO gets too full, the LAN9117 can automatically generate flow control packets to the remote node, or assert back-pressure on the remote node by generating network collisions. The LAN9117 supports numerous power management and wakeup features. The LAN9117 can be placed in a reduced power mode and can be programmed to issue an external wake signal via several methods, including “Magic Packet”, “Wake on LAN” and “Link Status Change”. This signal is ideal for triggering system power-up using remote Ethernet wakeup events. The device can be removed from the low power state via a host processor command.

The LAN9117 Ethernet MAC/PHY controller is designed and optimized to function in an embedded environment. All communication is performed with programmed I/O transactions using the simple SRAM-like host interface bus. The diagram shown above, describes a typical system configuration of the LAN9117 in a typical embedded environment. The LAN9117 is a general purpose, platform independent, Ethernet controller. The LAN9117 consists of four major functional blocks. The four blocks are: • • • • 10/100 Ethernet PHY 10/100 Ethernet MAC RX/TX FIFOs Host Bus Interface (HBI) 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc. DS00002267A-page 5 LAN9117 1.1 Internal Block Overview This section provides an overview of each of these functional blocks as shown in Figure 1-2, "Internal Block Diagram". FIGURE 1-2: INTERNAL BLOCK DIAGRAM 25MHz +3.3V Power Management Host Bus Interface (HBI) 16-bit SRAM I/F 3.3V to 1.8V Core Regulator TX Status FIFO RX Status FIFO FIFO_SEL Interrupt Controller GP Timer 1.2 3.3V to 1.8V PLL Regulator EEPROM Controller 2kB to 14kB Configurable TX FIFO PIO Controller IRQ PLL EEPROM (Optional) 2kB to 14kB Configurable RX FIFO 10/100 Ethernet MAC MUX PME Wakup Indicator +3.3V MIL - RX Elastic Buffer - 128 bytes 10/100 Ethernet PHY LAN Optional External PHY - MII Interface MIL - TX Elastic Buffer - 2K bytes 10/100 Ethernet PHY The LAN9117 integrates an IEEE 802.3 physical layer for twisted pair Ethernet applications. The PHY can be configured for either 100 Mbps (100Base-TX) or 10 Mbps (10Base-T) Ethernet operation in either full or half duplex configurations. The PHY block includes auto-negotiation. Minimal external components are required for the utilization of the Integrated PHY. 1.3 10/100 Ethernet MAC The transmit and receive data paths are separate within the MAC allowing the highest performance especially in full duplex mode. The data paths connect to the PIO interface Function via separate busses to increase performance. Payload data as well as transmit and receive status is passed on these busses. A third internal bus is used to access the MAC’s Control and Status Registers (CSR’s). This bus is accessible from the host through the PIO interface function. On the backend, the MAC interfaces with the internal 10/100 PHY through a the MII (Media Independent Interface) port internal to the LAN9117. The MAC CSR's also provides a mechanism for accessing the PHY’s internal registers through the internal SMI (Serial Management Interface) bus. The Ethernet MAC can also communicate with an external PHY. This mode however, is optional. The MAC Interface Layer (MIL), within the MAC, contains a 2K Byte transmit and a 128 Byte receive FIFO which is separate from the TX and RX FIFOs. The FIFOs within the MAC are not directly accessible from the host interface. The differentiation between the TX/RX FIFO memory buffers and the MAC buffers is that when the transmit or receive packets are in the MAC buffers, the host no longer can control or access the TX or RX data. The MAC buffers (both TX and RX) are in effect the working buffers of the Ethernet MAC logic. In the case of reception, the data must be moved first to the RX FIFOs for the host to access the data. For TX operations, the MIL operates in store-and-forward mode and will queue an entire frame before beginning transmission. DS00002267A-page 6 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc. LAN9117 1.4 Receive and Transmit FIFOs The Receive and Transmit FIFOs allow increased packet buffer storage to the MAC. The FIFOs are a conduit between the host interface and the MAC through which all transmitted and received data and status information is passed. Deep FIFOs allow a high degree of latency tolerance relative to the various transport and OS software stacks thus reducing or minimizing overrun conditions. Like the MAC, the FIFOs have separate receive and transmit data paths. In addition, the RX and TX FIFOs are configurable in size, allowing increased flexibility. 1.5 Interrupt Controller The LAN9117 supports a single programmable interrupt. The programmable nature of this interrupt allows the user the ability to optimize performance dependent upon the application requirement. Both the polarity and buffer type of the interrupt pin are configurable for the external interrupt processing. The interrupt line can be configured as an open-drain output to facilitate the sharing of interrupts with other devices. In addition, a programmable interrupt de-assertion interval is provided. 1.6 GPIO Interface A 3-bit GPIO and 2-bit GPO (Multiplexed on the EEPROM and LED Pins) interface is included in the LAN9117. It is accessible through the host bus interface via the CSRs. The GPIO signals can function as inputs, push-pull outputs and open drain outputs. The GPIO’s (GPO’s are not configurable) can also be configured to trigger interrupts with programmable polarity. 1.7 Serial EEPROM Interface A serial EEPROM interface is included in the LAN9117. The serial EEPROM is optional and can be programmed with the LAN9117 MAC address. The LAN9117 can optionally load the MAC address automatically after power-on. 1.8 Power Management Controls The LAN9117 supports comprehensive array of power management modes to allow use in power sensitive applications. Wake on LAN, Link Status Change and Magic Packet detection are supported by the LAN9117. An external PME (Power Management Event) interrupt is provided to indicate detection of a wakeup event. 1.9 General Purpose Timer The general-purpose timer has no dedicated function within the LAN9117 and may be programmed to issue a timed interrupt. 1.10 Host Bus Interface (SRAM Interface) The host bus interface provides a FIFO interface for the transmit and receive data paths, as well as an interface for the LAN9117 Control and Status Registers (CSR’s). The host bus interface is the primary bus for connection to the embedded host system. This interface models an asynchronous SRAM. TX FIFO, RX FIFO, and CSR’s are accessed through this interface. Programmed I/O transactions are supported. The LAN9117 host bus interface supports 16-bit bus transfers; internally, all data paths are 32-bits wide. The LAN9117 can be interfaced to either Big-Endian or Little-Endian processors. The host bus data Interface is responsible for host address decoding and data bus steering. The host bus interface handles the 16 to 32-bit conversion. Additionally, when Big Endian mode is selected, the data path to the internal controller registers will be reorganized accordingly. 1.11 External MII Interface The LAN9117 also supports the ability to interface to an external PHY device. This interface is compatible with all IEEE 802.3 MII compliant physical layer devices. For additional information on the MII interface and associated signals, please refer to Section 3.12, "MII Interface - External MII Switching," on page 34 for more information. 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc.

The polarity and buffer type of this signal is programmable. Note: Detection of a Power Management Event, and assertion of the PME signal will not wakeup the LAN9117. The LAN9117 will only wake up when it detects a host write cycle (assertion of nCS and nWR). Although any write to the LAN9117, regardless of the data written, will wake-up the device when it is in a power-saving mode, it is required that the BYTE_TEST register be used for this purpose. 5 No Connect 1 This signal functions as a configuration input on power-up and is used to select the default Ethernet settings.

This signal is pulsed high (LED off) for 80mS whenever transmit or receive activity is detected. This signal is then driven low again for a minimum of 80mS, after which time it will repeat the process if TX or RX activity is detected. Effectively, LED2 is activated solid for a link.

DS00002267A-page 15 LAN9117 3.0 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION 3.1 10/100 Ethernet MAC The Ethernet Media Access controller (MAC) incorporates the essential protocol requirements for operating an Ethernet/IEEE 802.3-compliant node and provides an interface between the host subsystem and the internal Ethernet PHY. The MAC can operate in either 100-Mbps or 10-Mbps mode. The MAC operates in both half-duplex and full-duplex modes. When operating in half-duplex mode, the MAC complies fully with Section 4 of ISO/IEC 8802-3 (ANSI/IEEE standard) and ANSI/IEEE 802.3 standards. When operating in fullduplex mode, the MAC complies with IEEE 802.3x full-duplex operation standard. The MAC provides programmable enhanced features designed to minimize host supervision, bus utilization, and preor post-message processing. These features include the ability to disable retries after a collision, dynamic FCS (Frame Check Sequence) generation on a frame-by-frame basis, automatic pad field insertion and deletion to enforce minimum frame size attributes, and automatic retransmission and detection of collision frames. The MAC can sustain transmission or reception of minimally-sized back-to-back packets at full line speed with an interpacket gap (IPG) of 9.6 microseconds for 10 Mbps and 0.96 microseconds for 100 Mbps. The primary attributes of the MAC Function are: • • • • • • • • • • Transmit and receive message data encapsulation Framing (frame boundary delimitation, frame synchronization) Error detection (physical medium transmission errors) Media access management Medium allocation (collision detection, except in full-duplex operation) Contention resolution (collision handling, except in full-duplex operation) Flow control during full-duplex mode Decoding of control frames (PAUSE command) and disabling the transmitter Generation of control frames Interface to the internal PHY and optional external PHYl The transmit and receive data paths are separate within the LAN9117 from the MAC to host interface allowing the highest performance, especially in full duplex mode. Payload data as well as transmit and receive status are passed on these busses. A third internal bus is used to access the MAC’s “Control and Status Registers” (CSR’s). This bus is also accessible from the host. On the backend, the MAC interfaces with the 10/100 PHY through an MII (Media Independent Interface) port, internal to the LAN9117. In addition, there is an external MII interface supporting optional PHY devices. The MAC CSR's also provide a mechanism for accessing the PHY’s internal registers through the internal SMI (Serial Management Interface) bus. The receive and transmit FIFOs allow increased packet buffer storage to the MAC. The FIFOs are a conduit between the host interface and the MAC through which all transmitted and received data and status information is passed. Deep FIFOs allow a high degree of latency tolerance relative to the various transport and OS software stacks reducing and minimizing overrun conditions. Like the MAC, the FIFOs have separate receive and transmit data paths. The LAN9117 can store up to 250 Ethernet packets utilizing FIFOs, totaling 16K bytes, with a packet granularity of 4 bytes. This memory is shared by the RX and TX blocks and is configurable in terms of allocation. This depth of buffer storage minimizes or eliminates receive overruns. DS00002267A-page 16 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc. LAN9117 3.2 Flow Control The LAN9117 Ethernet MAC supports full-duplex flow control using the pause operation and control frame. It also supports half-duplex flow control using back pressure. 3.2.1 FULL-DUPLEX FLOW CONTROL The pause operation inhibits data transmission of data frames for a specified period of time. A Pause operation consists of a frame containing the globally assigned multicast address (01-80-C2-00-00-01), the PAUSE opcode, and a parameter indicating the quantum of slot time (512 bit times) to inhibit data transmissions. The PAUSE parameter may range from 0 to 65,535 slot times. The Ethernet MAC logic, on receiving a frame with the reserved multicast address and PAUSE opcode, inhibits data frame transmissions for the length of time indicated. If a Pause request is received while a transmission is in progress, then the pause will take effect after the transmission is complete. Control frames are received and processed by the MAC and are passed on. The MAC also transmits control frames (pause command) via both hardware and software control. The software driver requests the MAC to transmit a control frame and gives the value of the PAUSE time to be used in the control frame. The MAC Function constructs a control frame with the appropriate values set in all the different fields (as defined in the 802.3x specification) and transmits the frame to the MII interface. The transmission of the control frame is not affected by the current state of the Pause timer value that is set because of a recently received control frame. 3.2.2 HALF-DUPLEX FLOW CONTROL (BACKPRESSURE) In half-duplex mode, back pressure is used for flow control. Whenever the receive buffer/FIFO becomes full or crosses a certain threshold level, the MAC starts sending a Jam signal. The MAC transmit logic enters a state at the end of current transmission (if any), where it waits for the beginning of a received frame. Once a new frame starts, the MAC starts sending the Jam signal, which will result in a collision. After sensing the collision, the remote station will back off its transmission. The MAC continues sending the jam to make other stations defer transmission. The MAC only generates this collision-based back pressure when it receives a new frame, in order to avoid any late collisions. 3.2.3 VIRTUAL LOCAL AREA NETWORK (VLAN) VLAN is a means to form a “broadcast domain” without restriction on the physical or geographical location on the members of that domain. VLAN can be implemented in any number of different factors, such as: • • • • • Physical port MAC address Layer-3 unicast address Multicast address Date/time in combination with MAC address, etc. An example of a VLAN is depicted in Figure 3-1, "VLAN Topology". It demonstrates the freedom from physical constraint on the network, and the ability to divide a single switched network into a smaller broadcast domain. Moreover, VLAN offers a number of other advantages, such as: Configurability: Changes to an existing VLAN can be made on the network administrative level, rather than on the hardware level. A member of a VLAN can thus change its MAC address or its port and still be a member of the same VLAN. Extra routing is not necessary. Security: VLAN can improve security by demanding a predefined authentication before admitting a new member to the domain. Network efficiency: Allows shielding one system resource from traffic not meant for that resource. A workstation in one VLAN is shielded from traffic on another VLAN, increasing that workstation’s efficiency. Broadcast containment: Leakage of broadcast frames from one VLAN to another is prevented. 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc.

The tag structure was proprietary until the IEEE released a supplement to 802.3 defining the VLAN frame structure, including the tag. This new frame structure for VLAN is depicted in Figure 3-2, "VLAN Frame". DS00002267A-page 18 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc. LAN9117 FIGURE 3-2: VLAN FRAME The MAC Function recognizes transmitted and received frames tagged with either one-level or two-level VLAN IDs. The MAC compares the thirteenth and fourteenth bytes of transmit and receive frames to the contents of both the one-level VLAN tag register and the two-level VLAN tag register. If a match is found, the MAC Function identifies the frame as either a one- or two-level VLAN frame, depending on where the match was found. Upon recognizing that a frame has a VLAN tag, counter thresholds are adjusted to account for the extra bytes that the VLAN tag adds to the frame. The maximum length of the good packet is thus changed from 1518 bytes to 1522 bytes. 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc. DS00002267A-page 19 LAN9117 3.3 Address Filtering Functional Description The Ethernet address fields of an Ethernet Packet, consists of two 6-byte fields: one for the destination address and one for the source address. The first bit of the destination address signifies whether it is a physical address or a multicast address. The LAN9117 address check logic filters the frame based on the Ethernet receive filter mode that has been enabled. Filter modes are specified based on the state of the control bits in Table 3-1, "Address Filtering Modes", which shows the various filtering modes used by the Ethernet MAC Function. These bits are defined in more detail in the “MAC Control Register”. Please refer to Section 5.4.1, "MAC_CR—MAC Control Register," on page 80 for more information on this register. If the frame fails the filter, the Ethernet MAC function does not receive the packet. The host has the option of accepting or ignoring the packet. TABLE 3-1: ADDRESS FILTERING MODES MCPAS PRMS INVFILT HO HPFILT Description 0 0 0 0 0 MAC address perfect filtering only for all addresses. 0 0 0 0 1 MAC address perfect filtering for physical address and hash filtering for multicast addresses 0 0 0 1 1 Hash Filtering for physical and multicast addresses 0 0 1 0 0 Inverse Filtering X 1 0 X X Promiscuous 1 0 0 0 X Pass all multicast frames. Frames with physical addresses are perfectfiltered 1 0 0 1 1 Pass all multicast frames. Frames with physical addresses are hashfiltered 3.4 3.4.1 Filtering Modes PERFECT FILTERING This filtering mode passes only incoming frames whose destination address field exactly matches the value programmed into the MAC Address High register and the MAC address low register. The MAC address is formed by the concatenation of the above two registers in the MAC CSR Function. 3.4.2 HASH ONLY FILTERING This type of filtering checks for incoming Receive packets with either multicast or physical destination addresses, and executes an imperfect address filtering against the hash table. During imperfect hash filtering, the destination address in the incoming frame is passed through the CRC logic and the upper six bits of the CRC register are used to index the contents of the hash table. The hash table is formed by merging the register’s multicast hash table high and multicast hash table low in the MAC CSR Function to form a 64-bit hash table. The most significant bit determines the register to be used (High/Low), while the other five bits determine the bit within the register. A value of 00000 selects Bit 0 of the multicast hash table low register and a value of 11111 selects Bit 31 of the multicast hash table high register. 3.4.2.1 Hash Perfect Filtering In hash perfect filtering, if the received frame is a physical address, the LAN9117 Packet Filter block perfect-filters the incoming frame’s destination field with the value programmed into the MAC Address High register and the MAC Address Low register. If the incoming frame is a multicast frame, however, the LAN9117 packet filter function performs an imperfect address filtering against the hash table. The imperfect filtering against the hash table is the same imperfect filtering process described in the “Hash Only Filtering” section above. DS00002267A-page 20 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc. LAN9117 3.4.2.2 Inverse Filtering In inverse filtering, the LAN9117 Packet Filter Block accepts incoming frames with a destination address not matching the perfect address (i.e., the value programmed into the MAC Address High register and the MAC Address Low register in the CRC block and rejects frames with destination addresses matching the perfect address. For all filtering modes, when MCPAS is set, all multicast frames are accepted. When the PRMS bit is set, all frames are accepted regardless of their destination address. This includes all broadcast frames as well. 3.5 Wake-up Frame Detection Setting the Wake-Up Frame Enable bit (WUEN) in the “WUCSR—Wake-up Control and Status Register”, places the LAN9117 MAC in the wake-up frame detection mode. In this mode, normal data reception is disabled, and detection logic within the MAC examines receive data for the pre-programmed wake-up frame patterns. The LAN9117 can be programmed to notify the host of the wake-up frame detection with the assertion of the host interrupt (IRQ) or assertion of the power management event signal (PME). Upon detection, the Wake-Up Frame Received bit (WUFR) in the WUCSR is set. When the host clears the WUEN bit the LAN9117 will resume normal receive operation. Before putting the MAC into the wake-up frame detection state, the host must provide the detection logic with a list of sample frames and their corresponding byte masks. This information is written into the Wake-up Frame Filter register (WUFF). Please refer to Section 5.4.11, "WUFF—Wake-up Frame Filter," on page 87 for additional information on this register. The MAC supports four programmable filters that support many different receive packet patterns. If remote wake-up mode is enabled, the remote wake-up function receives all frames addressed to the MAC. It then checks each frame against the enabled filter and recognizes the frame as a remote wake-up frame if it passes the wakeup frame filter register’s address filtering and CRC value match. In order to determine which bytes of the frames should be checked by the CRC module, the MAC uses a programmable byte mask and a programmable pattern offset for each of the four supported filters. The pattern’s offset defines the location of the first byte that should be checked in the frame. Since the destination address is checked by the address filtering Function, the pattern offset is always greater than 12. The byte mask is a 31-bit field that specifies whether or not each of the 31 contiguous bytes within the frame, beginning in the pattern offset, should be checked. If bit j in the byte mask is set, the detection logic checks byte offset +j in the frame. In order to load the Wake-up Frame Filter register, the host LAN driver software must perform eight writes to the Wake-up Frame Filter register (WUFF). The Diagram shown in Table 3-2, "Wake-Up Frame Filter Register Structure" below, shows the wake-up frame filter register’s structure. Note 3-1 Wake-up frame detection can be performed when LAN9117 is in the D0 or D1 power states. In the D0 state, wake-up frame detection is enabled when the WUEN bit is set. Note 3-2 Wake-up frame detection, as well as Magic Packet detection, is always enabled and cannot be disabled when the device enters the D1 state. Note 3-3 When wake-up frame detection is enabled via the WUEN bit of the WUCSR—Wake-up Control and Status Register, a broadcast wake-up frame will wake-up the device despite the state of the Disable Broadcast Frames (BCAST) bit in the MAC_CR—MAC Control Register.

Table 3-3, describes the byte mask’s bit fields. 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc. DS00002267A-page 21 LAN9117 TABLE 3-3: FILTER I BYTE MASK BIT DEFINITIONS Filter i Byte Mask Description Field Description 31 Must be zero (0) 30:0 Byte Mask: If bit j of the byte mask is set, the CRC machine processes byte number pattern - (offset + j) of the incoming frame. Otherwise, byte pattern - (offset + j) is ignored. The Filter i command register controls Filter i operation. Table 3-4 shows the Filter I command register. TABLE 3-4: FILTER I COMMAND BIT DEFINITIONS Filter i Commands Field Description 3 Address Type: Defines the destination address type of the pattern. When bit is set, the pattern applies only to multicast frames. When bit is cleared, the pattern applies only to unicast frames. 2:1 RESERVED 0 Enable Filter: When bit is set, Filter i is enabled, otherwise, Filter i is disabled. The Filter i Offset register defines the offset in the frame’s destination address field from which the frames are examined by Filter i. Table 3-5 describes the Filter i Offset bit fields. TABLE 3-5: FILTER I OFFSET BIT DEFINITIONS Filter i Offset Description Field Description 7:0 Pattern Offset: The offset of the first byte in the frame on which CRC is checked for wake-up frame recognition. The minimum value of this field must be 12 since there should be no CRC check for the destination address and the source address fields. The MAC checks the first offset byte of the frame for CRC and checks to determine whether the frame is a wake-up frame. Offset 0 is the first byte of the incoming frame's destination address. The Filter i CRC-16 register contains the CRC-16 result of the frame that should pass Filter i. Table 3-6 describes the Filter i CRC-16 bit fields. TABLE 3-6: FILTER I CRC-16 BIT DEFINITIONS Filter i CRC-16 Description Field 15:0 3.5.1 Description Pattern CRC-16: This field contains the 16-bit CRC value from the pattern and the byte mask programmed to the wake-up filter register Function. This value is compared against the CRC calculated on the incoming frame, and a match indicates the reception of a wakeup frame. MAGIC PACKET DETECTION Setting the Magic Packet Enable bit (MPEN) in the “WUCSR—Wake-up Control and Status Register”, places the LAN9117 MAC in the “Magic Packet” detection mode. In this mode, normal data reception is disabled, and detection logic within the MAC examines receive data for a Magic Packet. The LAN9117 can be programmed to notify the host of the “Magic Packet” detection with the assertion of the host interrupt (IRQ) or assertion of the power management event signal (PME). Upon detection, the Magic Packet Received bit (MPR) in the WUCSR is set. When the host clears the MPEN bit the LAN9117 will resume normal receive operation. Please refer to Section 5.4.12, "WUCSR—Wake-up Control and Status Register," on page 87 for additional information on this register. In Magic Packet mode, the Power Management Logic constantly monitors each frame addressed to the node for a specific Magic Packet pattern. It checks only packets with the MAC’s address or a broadcast address to meet the Magic Packet requirement. The Power Management Logic checks each received frame for the pattern 48h FF_FF_FF_FF_FF_FF after the destination and source address field. DS00002267A-page 22 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc. LAN9117 Then the Function looks in the frame for 16 repetitions of the MAC address without any breaks or interruptions. In case of a break in the 16 address repetitions, the PMT Function scans for the 48'hFF_FF_FF_FF_FF_FF pattern again in the incoming frame. The 16 repetitions may be anywhere in the frame but must be preceded by the synchronization stream. The device will also accept a multicast frame, as long as it detects the 16 duplications of the MAC address. If the MAC address of a node is 00h 11h 22h 33h 44h 55h, then the MAC scans for the following data sequence in an Ethernet: Frame. Destination Address Source Address ……………FF FF FF FF FF FF 00 11 22 33 44 55 00 11 22 33 44 55 00 11 22 33 44 55 00 11 22 33 44 55 00 11 22 33 44 55 00 11 22 33 44 55 00 11 22 33 44 55 00 11 22 33 44 55 00 11 22 33 44 55 00 11 22 33 44 55 00 11 22 33 44 55 00 11 22 33 44 55 00 11 22 33 44 55 00 11 22 33 44 55 00 11 22 33 44 55 00 11 22 33 44 55 …CRC It should be noted that Magic Packet detection can be performed when LAN9117 is in the D0 or D1 power states. In the D0 state, “Magic Packet” detection is enabled when the MPEN bit is set. In the D1 state, Magic Packet detection, as well as wake-up frame detection, are automatically enabled when the device enters the D1 state. 3.6 Host Bus Operations 3.6.1 BUS WRITES The host processor is required to perform two contiguous 16-bit writes to complete a single DWORD transfer. This DWORD must begin and end on a DWORD address boundary (A[2] and higher, cannot change during a sixteen bit write). No ordering requirements exist. The processor can access either the low or high word first, as long as the next write is performed to the other word. If a write to the same word is performed, the LAN9117 disregards the transfer. 3.6.2 BUS READS The host processor is required to perform two consecutive 16-bit reads to complete a single DWORD transfer. This DWORD must begin and end on a DWORD address boundary (A[2] and higher, cannot change during a sixteen bit read). No ordering requirements exist. The processor can access either the low or high word first, as long as the next read is performed from the other word. If a read to the same word is performed, the data read is invalid and should be re-read. This is not a fatal error. The LAN9117 will reset its read counters and restart a new cycle on the next read. 3.7 Big and Little Endian Support The Microchip LAN9117 supports “Big-Endian” or “Little-Endian” processors with 16-bit bus interfaces. To support bigendian processors, the hardware designer must explicitly invert the layout of the byte lanes. The WORD_SWAP—Word Swap Control must be set correctly following Table 3-7, "Byte Lane Mapping". Additionally, please refer to Section 5.3.17, "WORD_SWAP—Word Swap Control," on page 74 for additional information on status indication on Endian modes. TABLE 3-7: BYTE LANE MAPPING Data Pins Mode of Operation Description D[15:8] D[7:0] Mode 0 (WORD_SWAP—Word Swap Control equal to FFFFFFFFh) A1 = 0 Byte 3 Byte 2 A1 = 1 Byte 1 Byte 0 Note: This mode can be used by 32-bit processors operating with an external 16-bit bus. Mode 1 (WORD_SWAP—Word Swap Control not equal to FFFFFFFFh) A1 = 0 Byte 1 Byte 0 A1 = 1 Byte 3 Byte 2 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc. Note: This mode can also be used by native 16bit processors. DS00002267A-page 23 LAN9117 3.8 General Purpose Timer (GP Timer) The General Purpose Timer is a programmable block that can be used to generate periodic host interrupts. The resolution of this timer is 100uS. The GP Timer loads the GPT_CNT Register with the value in the GPT_LOAD field and begins counting down when the TIMER_EN bit is set to a ‘1.’ On a reset, or when the TIMER_EN bit changes from set ‘1’ to cleared ‘0,’ the GPT_CNT field is initialized to FFFFh. The GPT_CNT register is also initialized to FFFFh on a reset. Software can write the preload value into the GPT_LOAD field at any time; e.g., before or after the TIMER_EN bit is asserted. The GPT Enable bit TIMER_EN is located in the GPT_CFG register. Once enabled, the GPT counts down either until it reaches 0000h or until a new pre-load value is written to the GPT_LOAD field. At 0000h, the counter wraps around to FFFFh, asserts the GPT interrupt status bit and the IRQ signal if the GPT_INT_EN bit is set, and continues counting. The GPT interrupt status bit is in the INT_STS Register. The GPT_INT hardware interrupt can only be set if the GPT_INT_EN bit is set. GPT_INT is a sticky bit (R/WC); i.e., once the GPT_INT bit is set, it can only be cleared by writing a ‘1’ to the bit. 3.9 EEPROM Interface LAN9117 can optionally load its MAC address from an external serial EEPROM. If a properly configured EEPROM is detected by LAN9117 at power-up, hard reset or soft reset, the ADDRH and ADDRL registers will be loaded with the contents of the EEPROM. If a properly configured EEPROM is not detected, it is the responsibility of the host LAN Driver to set the IEEE addresses. The LAN9117 EEPROM controller also allows the host system to read, write and erase the contents of the Serial EEPROM. The EEPROM controller supports most “93C46” type EEPROMs configured for 128 x 8-bit operation. 3.9.1 MAC ADDRESS AUTO-LOAD On power-up, hard reset or soft reset, the EEPROM controller attempts to read the first byte of data from the EEPROM (address 00h). If the value A5h is read from the first address, then the EEPROM controller will assume that an external Serial EEPROM is present. The EEPROM controller will then access the next EEPROM byte and send it to the MAC Address register byte 0 (ADDRL[7:0]). This process will be repeated for the next five bytes of the MAC Address, thus fully programming the 48-bit MAC address. Once all six bytes have been programmed, the “MAC Address Loaded” bit is set in the E2P_CMD register. A detailed explanation of the EEPROM byte ordering with respect to the MAC address is given in Section 5.4.3, "ADDRL—MAC Address Low Register," on page 82. If an 0xA5h is not read from the first address, the EEPROM controller will end initialization. It is then the responsibility of the host LAN driver software to set the IEEE address by writing to the MAC’s ADDRH and ADDRL registers. The host can initiate a reload of the MAC address from the EEPROM by issuing the RELOAD command via the E2P command (E2P_CMD) register. If the first byte read from the EEPROM is not A5h, it is assumed that the EEPROM is not present, or not programmed, and the MAC address reload will fail. The “MAC Address Loaded” bit indicates a successful reload of the MAC address. 3.9.2 EEPROM HOST OPERATIONS After the EEPROM controller has finished reading (or attempting to read) the MAC after power-on, hard reset or soft reset, the host is free to perform other EEPROM operations. EEPROM operations are performed using the E2P_CMD and E2P data (E2P_DATA) registers. Section 5.3.23, "E2P_CMD – EEPROM Command Register," on page 77 provides an explanation of the supported EEPROM operations. If the EEPROM operation is the “write location” (WRITE) or “write all” (WRAL) commands, the host must first write the desired data into the E2P_DATA register. The host must then issue the WRITE or WRAL command using the E2P_CMD register by setting the EPC_CMD field appropriately. If the operation is a WRITE, the EPC_ADDR field in E2P_CMD must also be set to the desired location. The command is executed when the host sets the EPC_BSY bit high. The completion of the operation is indicated when the EPC_BSY bit is cleared. If the EEPROM operation is the “read location” (READ) operation, the host must issue the READ command using the E2P_CMD with the EPC_ADDR set to the desired location. The command is executed when the host sets the EPC_BSY bit high. The completion of the operation is indicated when the EPC_BSY bit is cleared, at which time the data from the EEPROM may be read from the E2P_DATA register. Other EEPROM operations are performed by writing the appropriate command to the EPC_CMD register. The command is executed when the host sets the EPC_BSY bit high. The completion of the operation is indicated when the EPC_BSY bit is cleared. In all cases the host must wait for EPC_BSY to clear before modifying the E2P_CMD register. DS00002267A-page 24 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc. LAN9117 Note: The EEPROM device powers-up in the erase/write disabled state. To modify the contents of the EEPROM the host must first issue the EWEN command. If an operation is attempted, and an EEPROM device does not respond within 30mS, the LAN9117 will timeout, and the EPC timeout bit (EPC_TO) in the E2P_CMD register will be set. Figure 3-3, "EEPROM Access Flow Diagram" illustrates the host accesses required to perform an EEPROM Read or Write operation. FIGURE 3-3: EEPROM ACCESS FLOW DIAGRAM EEPROM Write EEPROM Read Idle Idle Write Data Register Write Command Register Write Command Register Read Command Register Busy Bit = 0 Busy Bit = 0 Read Command Register Read Data Register The host can disable the EEPROM interface through the GPIO_CFG register. When the interface is disabled, the EEDIO and ECLK signals can be used as general-purpose outputs, or they may be used to monitor internal MII signals. 3.9.2.1 Supported EEPROM Operations The EEPROM controller supports the following EEPROM operations under host control via the E2P_CMD register. The operations are commonly supported by “93C46” EEPROM devices. A description and functional timing diagram is provided below for each operation. Please refer to the E2P_CMD register description in Section 5.3.23, "E2P_CMD – EEPROM Command Register," on page 77 for E2P_CMD field settings for each command. 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc.

DS00002267A-page 29 LAN9117 3.10 Power Management LAN9117 supports power-down modes to allow applications to minimize power consumption. The following sections describe these modes. 3.10.1 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION Power is reduced to various modules by disabling the clocks as outlined in Table 3-9, “Power Management States,” on page 31. All configuration data is saved when in either of the two low power states. Register contents are not affected unless specifically indicated in the register description. 3.10.2 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION There is one normal operating power state, D0 and there are two power saving states: D1, and D2. Upon entry into either of the two power saving states, only the PMT_CTRL register is accessible for read operations. In either of the power saving states the READY bit in the PMT_CTRL register will be cleared. Reads of any other addresses are forbidden until the READY bit is set. All writes, with the exception of the wakeup write to BYTE_TEST, are also forbidden until the READY bit is set. Only when in the D0 (Normal) state, when the READY bit is set, can the rest of the device be accessed. Note 3-4 The LAN9117 must always be read at least once after power-up, reset, or upon return from a powersaving state, otherwise write operations will not function. In system configurations where the PME signal is shared amongst multiple devices, the WUPS field within the PMT_CTRL register can be read to determine which LAN9117 device is driving the PME signal. When the LAN9117 is in a power saving state (D1 or D2), a write cycle to the BYTE_TEST register will return the LAN9117 to the D0 state. Table 7-1, “Power Consumption Device Only,” on page 105 and Table 7-2, “Power Consumption Device and System Components,” on page 106, shows the power consumption values for each power state. Note 3-5 3.10.2.1 When the LAN9117 is in a power saving state, a write of any data to the BYTE_TEST register will wake-up the device. DO NOT PERFORM WRITES TO OTHER ADDRRESSES while the READY bit in the PMT_CTRL register is cleared. D1 Sleep Power consumption is reduced in this state by disabling clocks to portions of the internal logic as shown in Table 3-9. In this mode the clock to the internal PHY and portions of the MAC are still operational. This state is entered when the host writes a '01' to the PM_MODE bits in the Power Management (PMT_CTRL) register. The READY bit in PMT_CTRL is cleared when entering the D1 state. Wake-up frame and Magic Packet detection are automatically enabled in the D1 state. If properly enabled via the WOL_EN and PME_EN bits, the LAN9117 will assert the PME hardware signal upon the detection of the wake-up frame or magic packet. The LAN9117 can also assert the host interrupt (IRQ) on detection of a wake-up frame or magic packet. Upon detection, the WUPS field in PMT_CTRL will be set to a 10b. Note 3-6 The PME interrupt status bit (PME_INT) in the INT_STS register is set regardless of the setting of PME_EN. Note 3-7 Wake-up frame and Magic Packet detection is automatically enabled when entering the D1 state. For wake-up frame detection, the wake-up frame filter must be programmed before entering the D1 state (see Section 3.5, "Wake-up Frame Detection," on page 21). If used, the host interrupt and PME signal must be enabled prior to entering the D1 state. A write to the BYTE_TEST register, regardless of whether a wake-up frame or Magic Packet was detected, will return LAN9117 to the D0 state and will reset the PM_MODE field to the D0 state. As noted above, the host is required to check the READY bit and verify that it is set before attempting any other reads or writes of the device. Note 3-8 The host must do only read accesses prior to the ready bit being set. Once the READY bit is set, the LAN9117 is ready to resume normal operation. At this time the WUPS field can be cleared. DS00002267A-page 30 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc. LAN9117 3.10.2.2 D2 Sleep In this state, as shown in Table 3-9, all clocks to the MAC and host bus are disabled, and the PHY is placed in a reduced power state. To enter this state, the EDPWRDOWN bit in register 17 of the PHY (Mode Control/Status register) must be set. This places the PHY in the Energy Detect mode. The PM_MODE bits in the PMT_CTRL register must then be set to 10b. Upon setting the PM_MODE bits, the LAN9117 will enter the D2 sleep state. The READY bit in PMT_CTRL is cleared when entering the D2 state. Note 3-9 If carrier is present when this state is entered detection will occur immediately. If properly enabled via the ED_EN and PME_EN bits, LAN9117 will assert the PME hardware signal upon detection of a valid carrier. Upon detection, the WUPS field in PMT_CTRL will be set to a 01b. Note 3-10 The PME interrupt status bit on the INT_STS register (PME_INT) is set regardless of the setting of PME_EN. A write to the BYTE_TEST register, regardless of whether a carrier was detected, will return LAN9117 to the D0 state and will reset the PM_MODE field to the D0 state. As noted above, the host is required to check the READY bit and verify that it is set before attempting any other reads or writes of the device. Before LAN9117 is fully awake from this state the EDPWRDOWN bit in register 17 of the PHY must be cleared in order to wake the PHY. Do not attempt to clear the EDPWRDOWN bit until the READY bit is set. After clearing the EDPWRDOWN bit the LAN9117 is ready to resume normal operation. At this time the WUPS field can be cleared.

The pme_interrupt signal is used to set the PME_INT status bit in the INT_STS register, which, if enabled, will generate a host interrupt upon detection of a power management event. The PME_INT status bit in INT_STS will remain set until the internal pme_interrupt signal is cleared by clearing the WUPS bits, or by clearing the corresponding WOL_EN or ED_EN bit. After clearing the internal pme_interrupt signal, the PME_INT status bit may be cleared by writing a ‘1’ to this bit in the INT_STS register. It should be noted that the LAN9117 can generate a host interrupt regardless of the state of the PME_EN bit, or the external PME signal. The external PME signal can be setup for pulsed, or static operation. When the PME_IND bit in the PMT_CTRL register is set to a ‘1’, the external PME signal will be driven active for 50ms upon detection of a wake-up event. When the PME_IND bit is cleared, the PME signal will be driven continuously upon detection of a wake-up event. The PME signal is deactivated by clearing the WUPS bits, or by clearing the corresponding WOL_EN or ED_EN bit. The PME signal can also be deactivated by clearing the PME_EN bit. 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc.

In this mode the internal PHY, except the management interface, is powered-down and stays in that condition as long as Phy register bit 0.11 is HIGH. When bit 0.11 is cleared, the PHY powers up and is automatically reset. Please refer to Section 5.5.1, "Basic Control Register," on page 88 for additional information on this register. 3.10.3.2 Energy Detect Power-Down This power-down mode is activated by setting the Phy register bit 17.13 to 1. Please refer to Section 5.5.8, "Mode Control/Status," on page 92 for additional information on this register. In this mode when no energy is present on the line, the PHY is powered down, with th exception of the management interface, the SQUELCH circuit and the ENERGYON logic. The ENERGYON logic is used to detect the presence of valid energy from 100Base-TX, 10Base-T, or Auto-negotiation signals In this mode, when the ENERGYON signal is low, the PHY is powered-down, and nothing is transmitted. When energy is received - link pulses or packets - the ENERGYON signal goes high, and the PHY powers-up. It automatically resets itself into the state it had prior to power-down, and asserts the INT7.1 bit of the register defined in Section 5.5.11, "Interrupt Source Flag," on page 93. If the ENERGYON interrupt is enabled, this event will cause an interrupt to the host. The first and possibly the second packet to activate ENERGYON may be lost. When 17.13 is low, energy detect power-down is disabled. 3.11 Detailed Reset Description The LAN9117 has five reset sources: • Power-On Reset (POR) • Hardware Reset Input Pin (nRESET) DS00002267A-page 32 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc. LAN9117 • Soft Reset (SRST) • PHY Soft Reset via PMT_CTRL bit 10 (PHY_RST) • PHY Soft Reset via PHY Basic Control Register (PHY REG 0.15) Table 3-10 shows the effect of the various reset sources on the LAN9117's circuitry. TABLE 3-10: RESET SOURCES AND AFFECTED CIRCUITRY PLL HBI Note 3-13 NASR Registers Note 3-13 MIL MAC PHY Note 3-11 EEPROM MAC ADDR. Reload Note 3-12 Config. Straps Latched POR X X X X X X X X nRESET X X X X X X X X X X Reset Source SRST X X PHY_RST X PHY REG 0.15 X Note 3-11 After any PHY reset, the application must wait until the “Link Status” bit in the PHY’s “Basic Status Register” (PHY Reg. 1.2) is set before attempting to transmit or receive data. Note 3-12 After a POR, nRESET or SRST, the LAN9117 will automatically check for the presence of an external EEPROM. After any of these resets the application must verify that the EPC Busy Bit (E2P_CMD, bit 31) is cleared before attempting to access the EEPROM, or change the function of the GPO/GPIO signals, or before modifying the ADDRH or ADDRL registers in the MAC. Note 3-13 HBI - “Host Bus Interface”, NASR - Not affected by software reset. 3.11.1 POWER-ON RESET (POR) A Power-On reset occurs whenever power is initially applied to the LAN9117, or if power is removed and reapplied to the LAN9117. A timer within the LAN9117 will assert the internal reset for approximately 22ms. The READY bit in the PMT_CTRL register can be read from the host interface and will read back a ‘0’ until the POR is complete. Upon completion of the POR, the READY bit in PMT_CTRL is set high, and the LAN9117 can be configured via its control registers. APPLICATION NOTE: Under normal conditions, the READY bit in PMT_CTRL will be set (high -”1”) after an internal reset (22ms). If the software driver polls this bit and it is not set within 100ms, then an error condition occurred. 3.11.2 HARDWARE RESET INPUT (NRESET) A hardware reset will occur when the nRESET input signal is driven low. The READY bit in the PMT_CTRL register can be read from the host interface, and will read back a ‘0’ until the hardware reset is complete. Upon completion of the hardware reset, the READY bit in PMT_CTRL is set high. After the “READY” bit is set, the LAN9117 can be configured via its control registers. The nRESET signal is pulled-high internally by the LAN9117 and can be left unconnected if unused. If used, nRESET must be driven low for a minimum period as defined in Section 6.8, "Reset Timing," on page 103. APPLICATION NOTE: Under normal conditions, the READY bit in PMT_CTRL will be set (high -”1”) immediately. If the software driver polls this bit and it is not set within 100ms, then an error condition occurred. 3.11.3 RESUME RESET TIMING After issuing a write to the BYTE_TEST register to wake the LAN9117 from a power-down state, the READY bit in PMT_CTRL will assert (set High) within 2ms. APPLICATION NOTE: Under normal conditions, the READY bit in PMT_CTRL will be set (high -”1”) within 2 ms. If the software driver polls this bit and it is not set within 100ms, then an error condition occurred. 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc. DS00002267A-page 33 LAN9117 3.11.4 SOFT RESET (SRST) Soft reset is initiated by writing a ‘1’ to bit 0 of the HW_CFG register (SRST). This self-clearing bit will return to ‘0’ after approximately 2 s, at which time the Soft Reset is complete. Soft reset does not clear control register bits marked as NASR. APPLICATION NOTE: Under normal conditions, the READY bit in PMT_CTRL will be set (high -”1”) immediately, (within 2s). If the software driver polls this bit and it is not set within 100ms, then an error condition occurred. 3.11.5 PHY RESET TIMING The following sections and tables specify the operation and time required for the internal PHY to become operational after various resets or when returning from the reduced power state. 3.11.5.1 PHY Soft Reset via PMT_CTRL bit 10 (PHY_RST) The PHY soft reset is initiated by writing a ‘1’ to bit 10 of the PMT_CTRL register (PHY_RST). This self-clearing bit will return to ‘0’ after approximately 100 s, at which time the PHY reset is complete. 3.11.5.2 PHY Soft Reset via PHY Basic Control Register (PHY Reg. 0.15) The PHY Reg. 0.15 Soft Reset is initiated by writing a ‘1’ to bit 15 of the PHY’s Basic Control Register. This self-clearing bit will return to ‘0’ at which time the PHY reset is complete. 3.12 MII Interface - External MII Switching There are two mechanisms that are used to switch between the internal PHY and the external MII port. • A LAN driver or other software controlled mechanism is used to control the PHY_CLK_SEL[1:0] bits described in Section 5.3.9, "HW_CFG—Hardware Configuration Register" that provides glitch-free MII clock switching. This mechanism allows the host processor to disable (gate) the RX_CLK and TX_CLK clocks from both the internal PHY and the external MII port, and switch the clock sources once they have stopped. After switching the clocks, the LAN9117 transmitter and receiver can be re-enabled. • A simple multiplexor that, with the exception of the SMI bus and the MII clocks, will switch the remaining MII signals. This multiplexor is controlled by the EXT_PHY_EN bit described in Section 5.3.9, "HW_CFG—Hardware Configuration Register". 3.12.1 SMI SWITCHING The Serial Management Interface (SMI) port can be switched between the internal PHY and external MII ports based on the settings of the SMI_SEL bit described in Section 5.3.9, "HW_CFG—Hardware Configuration Register". The SMI port can be switched independent of the setting of the other MII signals. APPLICATION NOTE: The user is cautioned to not switch the SMI port while an SMI transaction is in progress. 3.12.2 MII CLOCK SWITCHING The LAN9117 supports dynamic switching between the integrated internal PHY and the external MII port which can connect to an external MII compatible Ethernet PHY device. The remaining MII signals, with the exception of the SMI port, are switched using a simple multiplexor controlled by the EXT_PHY_SEL bit described in Section 5.3.9, "HW_CFG—Hardware Configuration Register". It is required that the MII clocks be disabled before the other MII signals are switched. The steps outlined in the flow diagram in Figure 3-12, "MII Switching Procedure", detail the required procedure for switching the MII port, including the MII clocks. These steps must be followed in order to ensure clean switching of the MII ports. Using the SMI interface, both the internal PHY, and the external PHY must be placed in a stable state. For each device generating a TX_CLK or RX_CLK, this clock must be stable and glitch-free before the switch can be made. If either device is not generating a TX_CLK or RX_CLK, this clock must remain off until the switch is complete. In either case the TX_CLK and RX_CLK must be stable and glitch-free for the device that will be selected after the switch. The following must be done prior to a switch: • The LAN9117 Transmitter must be halted. • The halting of the LAN9117 transmitter must be complete DS00002267A-page 34 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc. LAN9117 • The LAN9117 Receiver must be halted. • The halting of the LAN9117 receiver must be complete. • The PHY_CLK_SEL field must be set to 10b. This action will disable the MII clocks to the LAN9117 internal logic for both the internal PHY, and the external MII interface. • The host must wait a period of time not less than 5 cycles of the slowest operating clock before executing the next step in this procedure. APPLICATION NOTE: For example, if the internal PHY was operating in 10Mbs mode, and the external PHY was operating at 100Mbs mode, the internal PHY’s TX_CLK and RX_CLK period is the longest, and will determine the required wait-time. In this case the TX_CLK and RX_CLK period for the internal PHY is 400ns, therefore the host must wait 2us (5*400ns) before proceeding. If the clocks of the device being deselected by the switch are not running, they are not considered in this calculation. • Set EXT_PHY_SEL described in Section 5.3.9, "HW_CFG—Hardware Configuration Register" to the desired MII port. This step switches the RXD[3:0], RX_DV, RX_ER, TXD[3:0], TX_EN, CRS and COL signals to the desired port. • Set PHY_CLK_SEL described in Section 5.3.9, "HW_CFG—Hardware Configuration Register" to the desired port. This must be the same port that is selected by EXT_PHY_SEL. • The host must wait a period of time of not less than 5 cycles of the slowest, newly enabled clock before executing the next step in this procedure. • Enable theLAN9117 transmitter. • Enable the LAN9117 receiver. The process is complete. The LAN9117 is now operational using the newly selected MII device. The above procedure must be repeated each time the MII port is switched. The procedure is identical when switching from internal PHY to external MII, or vice-versa. 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc.

Each packet to be transmitted may be divided among multiple buffers. Each buffer starts with a two DWORD TX command (TX command ‘A’ and TX command ‘B’). The TX command instructs the LAN9117 on the handling of the associated buffer. Packet boundaries are delineated using control bits within the TX command. The host provides a 16-bit Packet Tag field in the TX command. The Packet Tag value is appended to the corresponding TX status DWORD. All Packet Tag fields must have the same value for all buffers in a given packet. If tags differ between buffers in the same packet the TXE error will be asserted. Any value may be chosen for a Packet Tag as long as all tags in the same Packet are identical. Packet Tags also provide a method of synchronization between transmitted packets and their associated status. Software can use unique Packet Tags to assist with validating matching status completions. Note 3-14 The use of packet tags is not required by the hardware. This is a software LAN driver only application example for use of this field. A Packet Length field in the TX command specifies the number of bytes in the associated packet. All Packet Length fields must have the same value for all buffers in a given packet. Hardware compares the Packet Length field and the actual amount of data received by the Ethernet controller. If the actual packet length count does not match the Packet Length field as defined in the TX command, the Transmitter Error (TXE) flag is asserted. The LAN9117 can be programmed to start payload transmission of a buffer on a byte boundary by setting the “Data Start Offset” field in the TX command. The “Data Start Offset” field points to the actual start of the payload data within the first 8 DWORDs of the buffer. Data before the “Data Start Offset” pointer will be ignored. When a packet is split into multiple buffers, each successive buffer may begin on any arbitrary byte. The LAN9117 can be programmed to strip padding from the end of a transmit packet in the event that the end of the packet does not align with the host burst boundary. This feature is necessary when the LAN9117 is operating in a system that always performs multi-word bursts. In such cases the LAN9117 must ensure that it can accept data in multiples of the Burst length regardless of the actual packet length. When configured to do so, the LAN9117 will accept extra data at the end of the packet and will remove the extra padding before transmitting the packet. The LAN9117 automatically removes data up to the boundary specified in the Buffer End Alignment field specified in each TX command. The host can instruct the LAN9117 to issue an interrupt when the buffer has been fully loaded into the TX FIFO contained in the LAN9117 and transmitted. This feature is enabled through the TX command ‘Interrupt on Completion’ field. Upon completion of transmission, irrespective of success or failure, the status of the transmission is written to the TX status FIFO. TX status is available to the host and may be read using PIO operations. An interrupt can be optionally enabled by the host to indicate the availability of a programmable number TX status DWORDS. Before writing the TX command and payload data to the TX FIFO, the host must check the available TX FIFO space by performing a PIO read of the TX_FIFO_INF register. The host must ensure that it does not overfill the TX FIFO or the TX Error (TXE) flag will be asserted. The host proceeds to write the TX command by first writing TX command ‘A’, then TX command ‘B’. After writing the command, the host can then move the payload data into the TX FIFO. TX status DWORD’s are stored in the TX status FIFO to be read by the host at a later time upon completion of the data transmission onto the wire. 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc.

The host writes a TX command word into the TX data buffer before moving the Ethernet packet data. The TX command A and command B are 32-bit values that are used by the LAN9117 in the handling and processing of the associated Ethernet packet data buffer. Buffer alignment, segmentation and other packet processing parameters are included in the command structure. The following diagram illustrates the buffer format.

It should be noted that not all of the data shown in this diagram is actually stored in the TX data FIFO. This must be taken into account when calculating the actual TX data FIFO usage. Please refer to Section 3.13.5, "Calculating Actual TX Data FIFO Usage," on page 42 for a detailed explanation on calculating the actual TX data FIFO usage. Note 3-15 3.13.2 The LAN9117 host bus interface supports 16-bit bus transfers; internally, all data paths are 32-bits wide. Figure 3-14 describes the host write ordering for pairs of atomic 16-bit transactions. TX COMMAND FORMAT The TX command instructs the TX FIFO controller on handling the subsequent buffer. The command precedes the data to be transmitted. The TX command is divided into two, 32-bit words; TX command ‘A’ and TX command ‘B’. There is a 16-bit packet tag in the TX command ‘B’ command word. Packet tags may, if host software desires, be unique for each packet (i.e., an incrementing count). The value of the tag will be returned in the RX status word for the associated packet. The Packet tag can be used by host software to uniquely identify each status word as it is returned to the host. Both TX command ‘A’ and TX command ‘B’ are required for each buffer in a given packet. TX command ‘B’ must be identical for every buffer in a given packet. If the TX command ‘B’ words do not match, the Ethernet controller will assert the Transmitter Error (TXE) flag. 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc.

When set, the TXDONE flag will be asserted when the current buffer has been fully loaded into the TX FIFO. This flag may be optionally mapped to a host interrupt. 30:26 Reserved. These bits are reserved. Always write zeros to this field to provide future compatibility. 25:24 Buffer End Alignment. This field specifies the alignment that must be maintained on the last data transfer of a buffer. The host will add extra DWORDs of data up to the alignment specified in the table below. The LAN9117 will remove the extra DWORDs. This mechanism can be used to maintain cache line alignment on host processors.

The offset value can be anywhere from 0 bytes to 31 a Byte offset. 15:14 Reserved. These bits are reserved. Always write zeros to this field to provide future compatibility 13 First Segment. When set, this bit indicates that the associated buffer is the first segment of the packet. 12 Last Segment. When set, this bit indicates that the associated buffer is the last segment of the packet 11 Reserved. These bits are reserved. Always write zeros to this field to provide future compatibility. 10:0 3.13.2.2 Buffer Size (bytes). This field indicates the number of bytes contained in the buffer following this command. This value, along with the Buffer End Alignment field, is read and checked by the LAN9117 and used to determine how many extra DWORD’s were added to the end of the Buffer. A running count is also maintained in the LAN9117 of the cumulative buffer sizes for a given packet. This cumulative value is compared against the Packet Length field in the TX command ‘B’ word and if they do not correlate, the TXE flag is set. Note: The buffer size specified does not include the buffer end alignment padding or data start offset added to a buffer. TX Command ‘B’ TABLE 3-12: TX COMMAND 'B' FORMAT Bits Description 31:16 Packet Tag. The host should write a unique packet identifier to this field. This identifier is added to the corresponding TX status word and can be used by the host to correlate TX status words with their corresponding packets. Note: The use of packet tags is not required by the hardware. This field can be used by the LAN software driver for any application. Packet Tags is one application example. 15:14 Reserved. These bits are reserved. Always write zeros to this field to provide future compatibility. 13 Add CRC Disable. When set, the automatic addition of the CRC is disabled.

When set, this bit prevents the automatic addition of padding to an Ethernet frame of less than 64 bytes. The CRC field is also added despite the state of the Add CRC Disable field. 11 Reserved. These bits are reserved. Always write zeros to this field to provide future compatibility. 10:0 Packet Length (bytes). This field indicates the total number of bytes in the current packet. This length does not include the offset or padding. If the Packet Length field does not match the actual number of bytes in the packet the Transmitter Error (TXE) flag will be set. 3.13.3 TX DATA FORMAT The TX data section begins at the third DWORD in the TX buffer (after TX command ‘A’ and TX command ‘B’). The location of the first byte of valid buffer data to be transmitted is specified in the “Data Start Offset” field of the TX command ‘A’ word. Table 3-13, "TX DATA Start Offset", shows the correlation between the setting of the LSB’s in the “Data Start Offset” field and the byte location of the first valid data byte. Additionally, transmit buffer data can be offset by up to 7 additional DWORDS as indicated by the upper three MSB’s (5:2) in the “Data Start Offset” field. TABLE 3-13: TX DATA START OFFSET Data Start Offset [1:0]: First TX Data Byte: 11 10 01 00 D[31:24] D[23:16] D[15:8] D[7:0] TX data is contiguous until the end of the buffer. The buffer may end on a byte boundary. Unused bytes at the end of the packet will not be sent to the MIL for transmission. The Buffer End Alignment field in TX command ‘A’ specifies the alignment that must be maintained for the associated buffer. End alignment may be specified as 4-, 16-, or 32-byte. The host processor is responsible for adding the additional data to the end of the buffer. The hardware will automatically remove this extra data. 3.13.3.1 TX Buffer Fragmentation Rules Transmit buffers must adhere to the following rules: • Each buffer can start and end on any arbitrary byte alignment • The first buffer of any transmit packet can be any length • Middle buffers (i.e., those with First Segment = Last Segment = 0) must be greater than, or equal to 4 bytes in length • The final buffer of any transmit packet can be any length The MIL operates in store-and-forward mode and has specific rules with respect to fragmented packets. The total space consumed in the TX FIFO (MIL) must be limited to no more than 2KB - 3 DWORDs (2,036 bytes total). Any transmit packet that is so highly fragmented that it takes more space than this must be un-fragmented (by copying to a Driversupplied buffer) before the transmit packet can be sent to the LAN9117. One approach to determine whether a packet is too fragmented is to calculate the actual amount of space that it will consume, and check it against 2,036 bytes. Another approach is to check the number of buffers against a worst-case limit of 86 (see explanation below). 3.13.3.2 Calculating Worst-Case TX FIFO (MIL) Usage The actual space consumed by a buffer consists only of any partial DWORD offsets in the first/last DWORD of the buffer, plus all of the whole DWORDs in between. Any whole DWORD offsets and/or alignments are stripped off before the buffer even gets into the TX data FIFO, and TX command words are stripped off before the buffer is written to the TX FIFO, so none of those DWORDs count as space consumed. The worst-case overhead for a TX buffer is 6 bytes, which assumes that it started on the high byte of a DWORD and ended on the low byte of a DWORD. A TX packet consisting of 86 such fragments would have an overhead of 516 bytes (6 * 86) which, when added to a 1514-byte max-size transmit packet (1516 bytes, rounded up to the next whole DWORD), would give a total space consumption of 2,032 bytes, leaving 4 bytes to spare; this is the basis for the "86 fragment" rule mentioned above. 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc. DS00002267A-page 41 LAN9117 3.13.4 TX STATUS FORMAT TX status is passed to the host CPU through a separate FIFO mechanism. A status word is returned for each packet transmitted. Data transmission is suspended if the TX status FIFO becomes full. Data transmission will resume when the host reads the TX status and there is room in the FIFO for more “TX Status” data. The host can optionally choose to not read the TX status. The host can optionally ignore the TX status by setting the “TX Status Discard Allow Overrun Enable” (TXSAO) bit in the TX Configuration Register (TX_CFG). If this option is chosen TX status will not be written to the FIFO. Setting this bit high allows the transmitter to continue operation with a full TX status FIFO. In this mode the status information is still available in the TX status FIFO, and TX status interrupts still function. In the case of an overrun, the TXSUSED counter will stay at zero and no further TX status will be written to the TX status FIFO until the host frees space by reading TX status. If TXSAO is enabled, a TXE error will not be generated if the TX status FIFO overruns. In this mode the host is responsible for re-synchronizing TX status in the case of an overrun. Bits Description 31:16 Packet TAG. Unique identifier written by the host into the Packet Tag field of the TX command ‘B’ word. This field can be used by the host to correlate TX status words with the associated TX packets. 15 Error Status (ES). When set, this bit indicates that the Ethernet controller has reported an error. This bit is the logical OR of bits 11, 10, 9, 8, 2, 1 in this status word. 14:12 Reserved. These bits are reserved. Always write zeros to this field to provide future compatibility. 11 Loss of Carrier. When set, this bit indicates the loss of carrier during transmission. 10 No Carrier. When set, this bit indicates that the carrier signal from the transceiver was not present during transmission. 9 Late Collision. When set, indicates that the packet transmission was aborted after the collision window of 64 bytes. 8 Excessive Collisions. When set, this bit indicates that the transmission was aborted after 16 collisions while attempting to transmit the current packet. 7 Reserved. This bit is reserved. Always write zeros to this field to provide future compatibility. 6:3 Collision Count. This counter indicates the number of collisions that occurred before the packet was transmitted. It is not valid when excessive collisions (bit 8) is also set. 2 Excessive Deferral. If the deferred bit is set in the control register, the setting of the excessive deferral bit indicates that the transmission has ended because of a deferral of over 24288 bit times during transmission. 1 Reserved. This bit is reserved. Always write zero to this bit to provide future compatibility. 0 Deferred. When set, this bit indicates that the current packet transmission was deferred. 3.13.5 CALCULATING ACTUAL TX DATA FIFO USAGE The following rules are used to calculate the actual TX data FIFO space consumed by a TX Packet: • TX command 'A' is stored in the TX data FIFO for every TX buffer • TX command 'B' is written into the TX data FIFO when the First Segment (FS) bit is set in TX command 'A' • Any DWORD-long data added as part of the “Data Start Offset” is removed from each buffer before the data is written to the TX data FIFO. Any data that is less than 1 DWORD is passed to the TX data FIFO. • Payload from each buffer within a Packet is written into the TX data FIFO. • Any DWORD-long data added as part of the End Padding is removed from each buffer before the data is written to the TX data FIFO. Any end padding that is less than 1 DWORD is passed to the TX data FIFO. DS00002267A-page 42 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc. LAN9117 3.13.6 TRANSMIT EXAMPLES 3.13.6.1 TX Example 1 In this example a single, 111-Byte Ethernet packet will be transmitted. This packet is divided into three buffers. The three buffers are as follows: Buffer 0: • 7-Byte “Data Start Offset” • 79-Bytes of payload data • 16-Byte “Buffer End Alignment” Buffer 1: • 0-Byte “Data Start Offset” • 15-Bytes of payload data • 16-Byte “Buffer End Alignment” Buffer 2: • 10-Byte “Data Start Offset” • 17-Bytes of payload data • 16-Byte “Buffer End Alignment” Figure 3-15, "TX Example 1" illustrates the TX command structure for this example, and also shows how data is passed to the TX data FIFO. Note 3-16 The LAN9117 host bus interface supports 16-bit bus transfers; internally, all data paths are 32-bits wide. Figure 3-15 and Figure 3-16 describe the host write ordering for pairs of atomic 16-bit transactions. 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc.

This packet is in a single buffer as follows: • 2-Byte “Data Start Offset” • 183-Bytes of payload data • 4-Byte “Buffer End Alignment” Figure 3-16, "TX Example 2" illustrates the TX command structure for this example, and also shows how data is passed to the TX data FIFO. Note that the packet resides in a single TX Buffer, therefore both the FS and LS bits are set in TX command ‘A’.

DS00002267A-page 45 LAN9117 3.13.7 TRANSMITTER ERRORS If the Transmitter Error (TXE) flag is asserted for any reason, the transmitter will continue operation. TX Error (TXE) will be asserted under the following conditions: • If the actual packet length count does not match the Packet Length field as defined in the TX command. • Both TX command ‘A’ and TX command ‘B’ are required for each buffer in a given packet. TX command ‘B’ must be identical for every buffer in a given packet. If the TX command ‘B’ words do not match, the Ethernet controller will assert the Transmitter Error (TXE) flag. • Host overrun of the TX data FIFO. • Overrun of the TX status FIFO (unless TXSAO is enabled) 3.13.8 STOPPING AND STARTING THE TRANSMITTER To halt the transmitter, the host must set the TX_STOP bit in the TX_CFG register. The transmitter will finish sending the current frame (if there is a frame transmission in progress). When the transmitter has received the TX status for this frame, it will clear the TX_STOP and TX_ON bits, and will pulse the TXSTOP_INT. Once stopped, the host can optionally clear the TX status and TX data FIFOs. The host must re-enable the transmitter by setting the TX_ON bit. If the there are frames pending in the TX data FIFO (i.e., TX data FIFO was not purged), the transmission will resume with this data. 3.14 RX Data Path Operation When an Ethernet Packet is received, the MIL first begins to transfer the RX data. This data is loaded into the RX data FIFO. The RX data FIFO pointers are updated as data is written into the FIFO. The last transfer from the MIL is the RX status word. The LAN9117 implements a separate FIFO for the RX status words. The total available RX data and status queued in the RX FIFO can be read from the RX_FIFO_INF register. The host may read any number of available RX status words before reading the RX data FIFO. The host must use caution when reading the RX data and status. The host must never read more data than what is available in the FIFOs. If this is attempted an underrun condition will occur. If this error occurs, the Ethernet controller will assert the Receiver Error (RXE) interrupt. If an underrun condition occurs, a soft reset is required to regain host synchronization. A configurable beginning offset is supported in the LAN9117. The RX data Offset field in the RX_CFG register controls the number of bytes that the beginning of the RX data buffer is shifted. The host can set an offset from 0-31 bytes. The offset may be changed in between RX packets, but it must not be changed during an RX packet read. The LAN9117 can be programmed to add padding at the end of a receive packet in the event that the end of the packet does not align with the host burst boundary. This feature is necessary when the LAN9117 is operating in a system that always performs multi-DWORD bursts. In such cases the LAN9117 must ensure that it can transfer data in multiples of the Burst length regardless of the actual packet length. When configured to do so, the LAN9117 will add extra data at the end of the packet to allow the host to perform the necessary number of reads so that the Burst length is not cut short. Once a packet has been padded by the H/W, it is the responsibility of the host to interrogate the Packet length field in the RX status and determine how much padding to discard at the end of the Packet. It is possible to read multiple packets out of the RX data FIFO in one continuous stream. It should be noted that the programmed Offset and Padding will be added to each individual packet in the stream, since packet boundaries are maintained. 3.14.1 RX SLAVE PIO OPERATION Using PIO mode, the host can either implement a polling or interrupt scheme to empty the received packet out of the RX data FIFO. The host will remain in the idle state until it receives an indication (interrupt or polling) that data is available in the RX data FIFO. The host will then read the RX status FIFO to get the packet status, which will contain the packet length and any other status information. The host should perform the proper number of reads, as indicated by the packet length plus the start offset and the amount of optional padding added to the end of the frame, from the RX data FIFO.

Read RX Packet DS00002267A-page 47 LAN9117 3.14.1.1 Receive Data FIFO Fast Forward The RX data path implements an automatic data discard function. Using the RX data FIFO Fast Forward bit (RX_FFWD) in the RX_DP_CTRL register, the host can instruct the LAN9117 to skip the packet at the head of the RX data FIFO. The RX data FIFO pointers are automatically incremented to the beginning of the next RX packet. When performing a fast-forward, there must be at least 4 DWORDs of data in the RX data FIFO for the packet being discarded. For less than 4 DWORDs do not use RX_FFWD. In this case data must be read from the RX data FIFO and discarded using standard PIO read operations. After initiating a fast-forward operation, do not perform any reads of the RX data FIFO until the RX_FFWD bit is cleared. Other resources can be accessed during this time (i.e., any registers and/or the other three FIFOs). Also note that the RX_FFWD will only fast-forward the RX data FIFO, not the RX status FIFO. The receiver does not have to be stopped to perform a fast-forward operation. 3.14.1.2 Force Receiver Discard (Receiver Dump) In addition to the Receive data Fast Forward feature, LAN9117 also implements a receiver "dump" feature. This feature allows the host processor to flush the entire contents of the RX data and RX status FIFOs. When activated, the read and write pointers for the RX data and status FIFOs will be returned to their reset state. To perform a receiver dump, the LAN9117 receiver must be halted. Once the receiver stop completion is confirmed, the RX_DUMP bit can be set in the RX_CFG register. The RX_DUMP bit is cleared when the dump is complete. For more information on stopping the receiver, please refer to Section 3.14.4, "Stopping and Starting the Receiver," on page 49. For more information on the RX_DUMP bit, please refer to Section 5.3.7, "RX_CFG—Receive Configuration Register," on page 65. 3.14.2 RX PACKET FORMAT The RX status words can be read from the RX status FIFO port, while the RX data packets can be read from the RX data FIFO. RX data packets are formatted in a specific manner before the host can read them. It is assumed that the host has previously read the associated status word from the RX status FIFO, to ascertain the data size and any error conditions.

When set, this bit indicates that a receive error (RX_ER asserted) was detected during frame reception. 2 Dribbling Bit.

Reads 0 3.14.4 STOPPING AND STARTING THE RECEIVER To stop the receiver, the host must clear the RXEN bit in the MAC Control Register. When the receiver is halted, the RXSTOP_INT will be pulsed. Once stopped, the host can optionally clear the RX status and RX data FIFOs. The host must re-enable the receiver by setting the RXEN bit. 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc.

Each major block is explained below. 4.2.1 4B/5B ENCODING The transmit data passes from the MII block to the 4B/5B encoder. This block encodes the data from 4-bit nibbles to 5bit symbols (known as “code-groups”) according to Table 4-1. Each 4-bit data-nibble is mapped to 16 of the 32 possible code-groups. The remaining 16 code-groups are either used for control information or are not valid. The first 16 code-groups are referred to by the hexadecimal values of their corresponding data nibbles, 0 through F. The remaining code-groups are given letter designations with slashes on either side. For example, an IDLE code-group is /I/, a transmit error code-group is /H/, etc. The encoding process may be bypassed by clearing bit 6 of register 31. When the encoding is bypassed the 5th transmit data bit is equivalent to TX_ER. 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc.

Scrambling the data helps eliminate these peaks and spread the signal power more uniformly over the entire channel bandwidth. This uniform spectral density is required by FCC regulations to prevent excessive EMI from being radiated by the physical wiring. The scrambler also performs the Parallel In Serial Out conversion (PISO) of the data. DS00002267A-page 52 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc. LAN9117 4.2.3 NRZI AND MLT3 ENCODING The scrambler block passes the 5-bit wide parallel data to the NRZI converter where it becomes a serial 125MHz NRZI data stream. The NRZI is encoded to MLT-3. MLT3 is a tri-level code where a change in the logic level represents a code bit “1” and the logic output remaining at the same level represents a code bit “0”. 4.2.4 100M TRANSMIT DRIVER The MLT3 data is then passed to the analog transmitter, which launches the differential MLT-3 signal, on outputs TXP and TXN, to the twisted pair media via a 1:1 ratio isolation transformer. The 10Base-T and 100Base-TX signals pass through the same transformer so that common “magnetics” can be used for both. The transmitter drives into the 100 impedance of the CAT-5 cable. Cable termination and impedance matching require external components. 4.2.5 100M PHASE LOCK LOOP (PLL) The 100M PLL locks onto reference clock and generates the 125MHz clock used to drive the 125 MHz logic and the 100Base-Tx Transmitter. FIGURE 4-2: RECEIVE DATA PATH 100M PLL RX_CLK MAC Internal MII 25MHz by 4 bits MII 25MHz by 4 bits 4B/5B Decoder 25MHz by 5 bits Descrambler and SIPO 125 Mbps Serial NRZI Converter A/D Converter NRZI MLT-3 MLT-3 Converter Magnetics DSP: Timing recovery, Equalizer and BLW Correction MLT-3 MLT-3 RJ45 MLT-3 CAT-5 6 bit Data 4.3 100Base-TX Receive The receive data path is shown in Figure 4-2. Detailed descriptions are given below. 4.3.1 100M RECEIVE INPUT The MLT-3 from the cable is fed into the PHY (on inputs RXP and RXN) via a 1:1 ratio transformer. The ADC samples the incoming differential signal at a rate of 125M samples per second. Using a 64-level quanitizer it generates 6 digital bits to represent each sample. The DSP adjusts the gain of the ADC according to the observed signal levels such that the full dynamic range of the ADC can be used. 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc. DS00002267A-page 53 LAN9117 4.3.2 EQUALIZER, BASELINE WANDER CORRECTION AND CLOCK AND DATA RECOVERY The 6 bits from the ADC are fed into the DSP block. The equalizer in the DSP section compensates for phase and amplitude distortion caused by the physical channel consisting of magnetics, connectors, and CAT- 5 cable. The equalizer can restore the signal for any good-quality CAT-5 cable between 1m and 150m. If the DC content of the signal is such that the low-frequency components fall below the low frequency pole of the isolation transformer, then the droop characteristics of the transformer will become significant and Baseline Wander (BLW) on the received signal will result. To prevent corruption of the received data, the PHY corrects for BLW and can receive the ANSI X3.263-1995 FDDI TP-PMD defined “killer packet” with no bit errors. The 100M PLL generates multiple phases of the 125MHz clock. A multiplexer, controlled by the timing unit of the DSP, selects the optimum phase for sampling the data. This is used as the received recovered clock. This clock is used to extract the serial data from the received signal. 4.3.3 NRZI AND MLT-3 DECODING The DSP generates the MLT-3 recovered levels that are fed to the MLT-3 converter. The MLT-3 is then converted to an NRZI data stream. 4.3.4 DESCRAMBLING The descrambler performs an inverse function to the scrambler in the transmitter and also performs the Serial In Parallel Out (SIPO) conversion of the data. During reception of IDLE (/I/) symbols. the descrambler synchronizes its descrambler key to the incoming stream. Once synchronization is achieved, the descrambler locks on this key and is able to descramble incoming data. Special logic in the descrambler ensures synchronization with the remote PHY by searching for IDLE symbols within a window of 4000 bytes (40us). This window ensures that a maximum packet size of 1514 bytes, allowed by the IEEE 802.3 standard, can be received with no interference. If no IDLE-symbols are detected within this time-period, receive operation is aborted and the descrambler re-starts the synchronization process. The descrambler can be bypassed by setting bit 0 of register 31. 4.3.5 ALIGNMENT The de-scrambled signal is then aligned into 5-bit code-groups by recognizing the /J/K/ Start-of-Stream Delimiter (SSD) pair at the start of a packet. Once the code-word alignment is determined, it is stored and utilized until the next start of frame. 4.3.6 5B/4B DECODING The 5-bit code-groups are translated into 4-bit data nibbles according to the 4B/5B table. The SSD, /J/K/, is translated to “0101 0101” as the first 2 nibbles of the MAC preamble. Reception of the SSD causes the PHY to assert the internal RX_DV signal, indicating that valid data is available on the Internal RXD bus. Successive valid code-groups are translated to data nibbles. Reception of either the End of Stream Delimiter (ESD) consisting of the /T/R/ symbols, or at least two /I/ symbols causes the PHY to de-assert the internal carrier sense and RX_DV. These symbols are not translated into data. 4.4 10Base-T Transmit Data to be transmitted comes from the MAC layer controller. The 10Base-T transmitter receives 4-bit nibbles from the MII at a rate of 2.5MHz and converts them to a 10Mbps serial data stream. The data stream is then Manchester-encoded and sent to the analog transmitter, which drives a signal onto the twisted pair via the external magnetics. The 10M transmitter uses the following blocks: • • • • MII (digital) TX 10M (digital) 10M Transmitter (analog) 10M PLL (analog) DS00002267A-page 54 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc. LAN9117 4.4.1 10M TRANSMIT DATA ACROSS THE INTERNAL MII BUS The MAC controller drives the transmit data onto the internal TXD BUS. When the controller has driven TX_EN high to indicate valid data, the data is latched by the MII block on the rising edge of TX_CLK. The data is in the form of 4-bit wide 2.5MHz data. 4.4.2 MANCHESTER ENCODING The 4-bit wide data is sent to the TX10M block. The nibbles are converted to a 10Mbps serial NRZI data stream. The 10M PLL locks onto the external clock or internal oscillator and produces a 20MHz clock. This is used to Manchester encode the NRZ data stream. When no data is being transmitted (TX_EN is low), the TX10M block outputs Normal Link Pulses (NLPs) to maintain communications with the remote link partner. 4.4.3 10M TRANSMIT DRIVERS The Manchester encoded data is sent to the analog transmitter where it is shaped and filtered before being driven out as a differential signal across the TXP and TXN outputs. 4.5 10Base-T Receive The 10Base-T receiver gets the Manchester- encoded analog signal from the cable via the magnetics. It recovers the receive clock from the signal and uses this clock to recover the NRZI data stream. This 10M serial data is converted to 4-bit data nibbles which are passed to the controller across the MII at a rate of 2.5MHz. This 10M receiver uses the following blocks: • • • • Filter and SQUELCH (analog) 10M PLL (analog) RX 10M (digital) MII (digital) 4.5.1 10M RECEIVE INPUT AND SQUELCH The Manchester signal from the cable is fed into the PHY (on inputs RXP and RXN) via 1:1 ratio magnetics. It is first filtered to reduce any out-of-band noise. It then passes through a SQUELCH circuit. The SQUELCH is a set of amplitude and timing comparators that normally reject differential voltage levels below 300mV and detect and recognize differential voltages above 585mV. 4.5.2 MANCHESTER DECODING The output of the SQUELCH goes to the RX10M block where it is validated as Manchester encoded data. The polarity of the signal is also checked. If the polarity is reversed (local RXP is connected to RXN of the remote partner and vice versa), then this is identified and corrected. The reversed condition is indicated by the flag “XPOL“, bit 4 in register 27. The 10M PLL is locked onto the received Manchester signal and from this, generates the received 20MHz clock. Using this clock, the Manchester encoded data is extracted and converted to a 10MHz NRZI data stream. It is then converted from serial to 4-bit wide parallel data. The RX10M block also detects valid 10Base-T IDLE signals - Normal Link Pulses (NLPs) - to maintain the link. 4.5.3 JABBER DETECTION Jabber is a condition in which a station transmits for a period of time longer than the maximum permissible packet length, usually due to a fault condition, that results in holding the TX_EN input for a long period. Special logic is used to detect the jabber state and abort the transmission to the line, within 45ms. Once TX_EN is deasserted, the logic resets the jabber condition. 4.6 Auto-negotiation The purpose of the Auto-negotiation function is to automatically configure the PHY to the optimum link parameters based on the capabilities of its link partner. Auto-negotiation is a mechanism for exchanging configuration information between two link-partners and automatically selecting the highest performance mode of operation supported by both sides. Auto-negotiation is fully defined in clause 28 of the IEEE 802.3 specification. Once auto-negotiation has completed, information about the resolved link can be passed back to the controller via the internal Serial Management Interface (SMI). The results of the negotiation process are reflected in the Speed Indication bits in register 31, as well as the Link Partner Ability Register (Register 5). 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc. DS00002267A-page 55 LAN9117 The auto-negotiation protocol is a purely physical layer activity and proceeds independently of the MAC controller. The advertised capabilities of the PHY are stored in register 4 of the SMI registers. The default advertised by the PHY is determined by user-defined on-chip signal options. The following blocks are activated during an Auto-negotiation session: • • • • • • • Auto-negotiation (digital) 100M ADC (analog) 100M PLL (analog) 100M equalizer/BLW/clock recovery (DSP) 10M SQUELCH (analog) 10M PLL (analog) 10M Transmitter (analog) When enabled, auto-negotiation is started by the occurrence of one of the following events: • • • • • Hardware reset Software reset Power-down reset Link status down Setting register 0, bit 9 high (auto-negotiation restart) On detection of one of these events, the PHY begins auto-negotiation by transmitting bursts of Fast Link Pulses (FLP). These are bursts of link pulses from the 10M transmitter. They are shaped as Normal Link Pulses and can pass uncorrupted down CAT-3 or CAT-5 cable. A Fast Link Pulse Burst consists of up to 33 pulses. The 17 odd-numbered pulses, which are always present, frame the FLP burst. The 16 even-numbered pulses, which may be present or absent, contain the data word being transmitted. Presence of a data pulse represents a “1”, while absence represents a “0”. The data transmitted by an FLP burst is known as a “Link Code Word.” These are defined fully in IEEE 802.3 clause 28. In summary, the PHY advertises 802.3 compliance in its selector field (the first 5 bits of the Link Code Word). It advertises its technology ability according to the bits set in register 4 of the SMI registers. There are 4 possible matches of the technology abilities. In the order of priority these are: • • • • 100M full-duplex (Highest priority) 100M half-duplex 10M full-duplex 10M half-duplex If the full capabilities of the PHY are advertised (100M, full-duplex), and if the link partner is capable of 10M and 100M, then auto-negotiation selects 100M as the highest performance mode. If the link partner is capable of half and full-duplex modes, then auto-negotiation selects full-duplex as the highest performance operation. Once a capability match has been determined, the link code words are repeated with the acknowledge bit set. Any difference in the main content of the link code words at this time will cause auto-negotiation to re-start. Auto-negotiation will also re-start if not all of the required FLP bursts are received. Writing register 4 bits [8:5] allows software control of the capabilities advertised by the PHY. Writing register 4 does not automatically re-start auto-negotiation. Register 0, bit 9 must be set before the new abilities will be advertised. Autonegotiation can also be disabled via software by clearing register 0, bit 12. The LAN9117 does not support “Next Page" capability. 4.7 Parallel Detection If the LAN9117 is connected to a device lacking the ability to auto-negotiate (i.e. no FLPs are detected), it is able to determine the speed of the link based on either 100M MLT-3 symbols or 10M Normal Link Pulses. In this case the link is presumed to be half-duplex per the IEEE standard. This ability is known as “Parallel Detection. This feature ensures inter operability with legacy link partners. If a link is formed via parallel detection, then bit 0 in register 6 is cleared to indicate that the Link Partner is not capable of auto-negotiation. The Ethernet MAC has access to this information via the management interface. If a fault occurs during parallel detection, bit 4 of register 6 is set. Register 5 is used to store the Link Partner Ability information, which is coded in the received FLPs. If the Link Partner is not auto-negotiation capable, then register 5 is updated after completion of parallel detection to reflect the speed capability of the Link Partner. DS00002267A-page 56 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc. LAN9117 4.7.1 RE-STARTING AUTO-NEGOTIATION Auto-negotiation can be re-started at any time by setting register 0, bit 9. Auto-negotiation will also re-start if the link is broken at any time. A broken link is caused by signal loss. This may occur because of a cable break, or because of an interruption in the signal transmitted by the Link Partner. Auto-negotiation resumes in an attempt to determine the new link configuration. If the management entity re-starts Auto-negotiation by writing to bit 9 of the control register, the LAN9117 will respond by stopping all transmission/receiving operations. Once the break_link_timer is done, in the Auto-negotiation statemachine (approximately 1200ms) the auto-negotiation will re-start. The Link Partner will have also dropped the link due to lack of a received signal, so it too will resume auto-negotiation. 4.7.2 DISABLING AUTO-NEGOTIATION Auto-negotiation can be disabled by setting register 0, bit 12 to zero. The device will then force its speed of operation to reflect the information in register 0, bit 13 (speed) and register 0, bit 8 (duplex). The speed and duplex bits in register 0 should be ignored when auto-negotiation is enabled. 4.7.3 HALF VS. FULL-DUPLEX Half-duplex operation relies on the CSMA/CD (Carrier Sense Multiple Access / Collision Detect) protocol to handle network traffic and collisions. In this mode, the carrier sense signal, CRS, responds to both transmit and receive activity. In this mode, If data is received while the PHY is transmitting, a collision results. In full-duplex mode, the PHY is able to transmit and receive data simultaneously. In this mode, CRS responds only to receive activity. The CSMA/CD protocol does not apply and collision detection is disabled. Table 4-2 describes the behavior of the CRS bit under all receive/transmit conditions.

When in Active mode, CRS will transition high and low upon line activity, where a high value indicates a carrier has been detected. In Low mode, CRS stays low and does not indicate carrier detection. The CRS signal cannot be used as a verification method of transmitted packets when transmitting in 10 or 100 Mbps in full-duplex mode. 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc.

Note 5-1 The LAN9117 host bus interface supports 16-bit bus transfers; internally, all data paths are 32-bits wide. Figure 5-1 describes the memory map with respect to pairs of atomic 16-bit transactions.

LAN9117 5.1 Register Nomenclature and Access Attributes Symbol Description RO Read Only: If a register is read only, writes to this register have no effect. WO Write Only: If a register is write only, reads always return 0. R/W Read/Write: A register with this attribute can be read and written R/WC Read/Write Clear: A register bit with this attribute can be read and written. However, a write of a 1 clears (sets to 0) the corresponding bit and a write of a 0 has no effect. RC Read to Clear: A register bit with this attribute is cleared when read. LL Latch Low: Clear on read of register LH Latch High: Clear on read of register SC Self-Clearing NASR Not Affected by Software Reset Reserved Bits Unless otherwise stated, reserved fields must be written with zeros to ensure future compatibility. The value of reserved bits is not supported on a read. Reserved Registers In addition to reserved bits within a register, the LAN9117 contains address locations in the configuration space that are marked “Reserved. When a “Reserved” register location is read, a random value can be returned. Registers that are marked as “Reserved” must not be modified by system software. Writes to “Reserved” registers may cause system failure. Default Value Upon Reset Upon a Reset (System reset, Software Reset, or POR), the LAN9117 sets its internal configuration registers to predetermined default states. The default state represents the minimum functionality feature set required to successfully bring up the system. Hence, it does not represent the optimal system configuration. It is the responsibility of the system initialization software to properly determine the operating parameters and optional system features that are applicable, and to program the LAN9117 registers accordingly. 5.2 RX and TX FIFO Ports The LAN9117 contains four host-accessible FIFOs: the RX Status, RX data, TX Status, and TX data FIFOs. The sizes of the RX and TX data FIFOs, as well as the RX Status FIFO are configurable through the CSRs. 5.2.1 RX FIFO PORTS The RX data Path consists of two Read-Only FIFOs; the RX Status and data. The RX Status FIFO can be read from two locations. The RX Status FIFO Port will perform a destructive read, thus “Popping” the data from the RX Status FIFO. There is also the RX Status FIFO PEEK location. This location allows a non-destructive read of the top (oldest) location of the FIFO. The RX data FIFO only allows destructive reads. It is aliased in 8 DWORD locations (accessed from the bus interface as 8 pairs of atomic 16-bit accesses). The host may access any of the locations since they all contain the same data and perform the same function. 5.2.2 TX FIFO PORTS The TX data Path consists of two FIFOs, the TX status and data. The TX Status FIFO can be read from two locations. The TX Status FIFO Port will perform a destructive read, thus “Popping” the data from the TX Status FIFO. There is also the TX Status FIFO PEEK location. This location allows a non-destructive read of the top (oldest) location of the FIFO. The TX data FIFO is write only. It is aliased in 8 DWORD locations (accessed from the bus interface as 8 pairs of atomic 16-bit accesses). The host write to any of the locations since they all access the same TX data FIFO location and perform the same function. 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc.

LAN9117 5.3.1 ID_REV—CHIP ID AND REVISION Offset: 50h Size: 32 bits This register contains the ID and Revision fields for this design. Bits Description Type Default 31-16 Chip ID. This read-only field identifies this design RO 0117h 15-0 Chip Revision. This is the current revision of the chip. RO 0001h 5.3.2 IRQ_CFG—INTERRUPT CONFIGURATION REGISTER Offset: 54h Size: 32 bits This register configures and indicates the state of the IRQ signal. Bits Description Type Default 31:24 Interrupt Deassertion Interval (INT_DEAS). This field determines the Interrupt Deassertion Interval for the Interrupt Request in multiples of 10 microseconds. R/W 0 Writing zeros to this field disables the INT_DEAS Interval and resets the interval counter. Any pending interrupts are then issued. If a new, nonzero value is written to the INT_DEAS field, any subsequent interrupts will obey the new setting. Note: The Interrupt Deassertion interval does not apply to the PME interrupt. 23-15 Reserved RO - 14 Interrupt Deassertion Interval Clear (INT_DEAS_CLR). Writing a one to this register clears the de-assertion counter in the IRQ Controller, thus causing a new de-assertion interval to begin (regardless of whether or not the IRQ Controller is currently in an active de-assertion interval). SC 0 13 Interrupt Deassertion Status (INT_DEAS_STS). When set, this bit indicates that the INT_DEAS is currently in a deassertion interval, and any interrupts (as indicated by the IRQ_INT and INT_EN bits) will not be delivered to the IRQ pin. When cleared, the INT_DEAS is currently not in a deassertion interval, and enabled interrupts will be delivered to the IRQ pin. SC 0 12 Master Interrupt (IRQ_INT). This read-only bit indicates the state of the internal IRQ line. When set high, one of the enabled interrupts is currently active. This bit will respond to the associated interrupts regardless of the IRQ_EN field. This bit is not affected by the setting of the INT_DEAS field. RO 0 Reserved RO - IRQ Enable (IRQ_EN) – This bit controls the final interrupt output to the IRQ pin. When cleared, the IRQ output is disabled and will be permanently deasserted. This bit only controls the external IRQ signal, and has no effect on any of the internal interrupt status bits. R/W 0 Reserved RO - R/W NASR 0 11-9 8 7-5 4 IRQ Polarity (IRQ_POL) – When cleared, enables the IRQ line to function as an active low output. When set, the IRQ output is active high. When IRQ is configured as an open-drain output this field is ignored, and the interrupt output is always active low. 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc. DS00002267A-page 61 LAN9117 Bits 3-1 0 5.3.3 Description Type Default RO - R/W NASR 0 Reserved IRQ Buffer Type (IRQ_TYPE) – When cleared, enables IRQ to function as an open-drain buffer for use in a Wired-Or Interrupt configuration. When set, the IRQ output is a Push-Pull driver. When configured as an open-drain output the IRQ_POL field is ignored, and the interrupt output is always active low. INT_STS—INTERRUPT STATUS REGISTER Offset: 58h Size: 32 bits This register contains the current status of the generated interrupts. Writing a 1 to the corresponding bits acknowledges and clears the interrupt. Bits 31 30-26 Description Software Interrupt (SW_INT). This interrupt is generated when the SW_INT_EN bit is set high. Writing a one clears this interrupt. Reserved Type Default R/WC 0 RO - 25 TX Stopped (TXSTOP_INT). This interrupt is issued when STOP_TX bit in TX_CFG is set, and the transmitter is halted. R/WC 0 24 RX Stopped (RXSTOP_INT). This interrupt is issued when the receiver is halted. R/WC 0 23 RX Dropped Frame Counter Halfway (RXDFH_INT). This interrupt is issued when the RX Dropped Frames Counter counts past its halfway point (7FFFFFFFh to 80000000h). R/WC 0 22 Reserved RO 0 21 TX IOC Interrupt (TX_IOC). When a buffer with the IOC flag set has finished being loaded into the TX FIFO, this interrupt is generated. R/WC 0 20 RX DMA Interrupt (RXD_INT). This interrupt is issued when the amount of data programmed in the RX DMA Count (RX_DMA_CNT) field of the RX_CFG register has been transferred out of the RX FIFO. R/WC 0 19 GP Timer (GPT_INT). This interrupt is issued when the General Purpose timer wraps past zero to FFFFh. R/WC 0 18 PHY (PHY_INT). Indicates a PHY Interrupt event. RO 0 17 Power Management Event Interrupt (PME_INT). This interrupt is issued when a Power Management Event is detected as configured in the PMT_CTRL register. This interrupt functions independent of the PME signal, and will still function if the PME signal is disabled. Writing a '1' clears this bit regardless of the state of the PME hardware signal. Notes: • Detection of a Power Management Event, and assertion of the PME signal will not wakeup the LAN9117. The LAN9117 will only wake up when it detects a host write cycle of any data to the BYTE_TEST register. • The Interrupt Deassertion interval does not apply to the PME interrupt. R/WC 0 TX Status FIFO Overflow (TXSO). Generated when the TX Status R/WC 0 R/WC 0 R/WC 0 16 FIFO overflows. 15 Receive Watchdog Time-out (RWT).

This field specifies the alignment that must be maintained on the last data transfer of a buffer. The LAN9117 will add extra DWORDs of data up to the alignment specified in the table below. The host is responsible for removing these extra DWORDs. This mechanism can be used to maintain cache line alignment on host processors. Please refer to Table 5-2 for bit definitions Note: The desired RX End Alignment must be set before reading a packet. The RX end alignment can be changed between reading receive packets, but must not be changed if the packet is partially read. R/W 00b 29-28 Reserved RO - 27-16 RX DMA Count (RX_DMA_CNT). This 12-bit field indicates the amount of data, in DWORDS, to be transferred out of the RX data FIFO before asserting the RXD_INT. After being set, this field is decremented for each DWORD of data that is read from the RX data FIFO. This field can be overwritten with a new value before it reaches zero. R/W 000h 15 Force RX Discard (RX_DUMP). This self-clearing bit clears the RX data and status FIFOs of all pending data. When a ‘1’ is written, the RX data and status pointers are cleared to zero. Note: Please refer to section “Force Receiver Discard (Receiver Dump)” on page 48 for a detailed description regarding the use of RX_DUMP. SC 0 14-13 Reserved RO - 12-8 RX Data Offset (RXDOFF). This field controls the offset value, in bytes, that is added to the beginning of an RX data packet. The start of the valid data will be shifted by the number of bytes specified in this field. An offset of 0-31 bytes is a valid number of offset bytes. Note: The two LSBs of this field (D[9:8]) must not be modified while the RX is running. The receiver must be halted, and all data purged before these two bits can be modified. The upper three bits (DWORD offset) may be modified while the receiver is running. Modifications to the upper bits will take affect on the next DWORD read.

Any data in the TX FIFO will be sent. This bit is cleared automatically when STOP_TX is set and the transmitter is halted. R/W 0 0 Stop Transmitter (STOP_TX). When this bit is set (1), the transmitter will finish the current frame, and will then stop transmitting. When the transmitter has stopped this bit will clear. All writes to this bit are ignored while this bit is high. SC 0 31-16 13-3 5.3.9 Description HW_CFG—HARDWARE CONFIGURATION REGISTER Offset: 74h Size: 32 bits This register controls the hardware configuration of the LAN9117 Ethernet Controller. Note: The transmitter and receiver must be stopped before writing to this register. Refer to Section 3.13.8, "Stopping and Starting the Transmitter," on page 46 and Section 3.14.4, "Stopping and Starting the Receiver," on page 49 for details on stopping the transmitter and receiver. Bits Type Default Reserved RO - 20 Must Be One (MBO). This bit must be set to “1” for normal device operation. R/W 0 16-19 TX FIFO Size (TX_FIF_SZ). Sets the size of the TX FIFOs in 1KB values to a maximum of 14KB. The TX Status FIFO consumes 512 bytes of the space allocated by TX_FIF_SIZ, and the TX data FIFO consumes the remaining space specified by TX_FIF_SZ. The minimum size of the TX FIFOs is 2KB (TX data and status combined). The TX data FIFO is used for both TX data and TX commands. R/W 5h 31-21 Description The RX Status and data FIFOs consume the remaining space, which is equal to 16KB – TX_FIF_SIZ. See Section 5.3.9.1, "Allowable settings for Configurable FIFO Memory Allocation," on page 68 for more information. DS00002267A-page 66 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc. LAN9117 Bits Description 15-7 Reserved 6-5 PHY Clock Select (PHY_CLK_SEL). This field is used to switch between the internal and external MII clocks (RX_CLK and TX_CLK). This field is encoded as follows: Type Default RO - R/W 00b [6] [5] MII Clock Source --------------------------------------------------0 0 Internal PHY 0 1 External MII Port 1 0 Clocks Disabled 1 1 Internal PHY Note: • This field does not control multiplexing of the SMI port or other MII signals. • There are restrictions on the use of this field. Please refer to Section 3.12, "MII Interface - External MII Switching," on page 34 for details. 4 Serial Management Interface Select (SMI_SEL). This bit is used to switch R/W the SMI port (MDIO and MDC) between the internal PHY and the external MII port. When this bit is cleared to ‘0’, the internal PHY is selected, and all SMI transactions will be to the internal PHY. When this bit is set to ‘1’, the external MII port is selected, and all SMI transactions will be to the external PHY. This bit functions independent of EXT_PHY_EN. When this bit is set, the internal MDIO and MDC signals are driven low. When this bit is cleared, the external MIDIO signal is tri-stated, and the MDC signal is driven low. Note: This bit does not control the multiplexing of other MII signals. 0 3 External PHY Detect (EXT_PHY_DET). This bit reflects the latched value RO of the EXT_PHY_DET strap. The EXT_PHY_DET strap is used to indicate the presence of an external PHY. This strap is latched from the value of the external MDIO signal upon power-up or hard reset. If MDIO is pulled high a ‘1’ will be seen in this bit. If MDIO is pulled low a ‘0’ will be seen in this bit. The RXT_PHY_DET strap has no other effect on the internal logic. Its only function is to give the system designer a mechanism to indicate the presence of an external PHY to a software application. Dependant on EXT_PHY_D ET strap pin 2 External PHY Enable (EXT_PHY_EN). When set to a ‘1’, this bit enables the external MII port. When cleared, the internal PHY is enabled and the external MII port is disabled. Note: RW 0 • This signal does not control multiplexing of the SMI port or the TX_CLK or RX_CLK signals. • There are restrictions on the use of this bit. Please refer to Section 3.12, "MII Interface - External MII Switching," on page 34 for details. 1 Soft Reset Timeout (SRST_TO). If a software reset is attempted when the internal PHY is not in the operational state (RX_CLK and TX_CLK running), the reset will not complete and the soft reset operation will timeout and this bit will be set to a ‘1’. The host processor must correct the problem and issue another soft reset. 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc. RO 0 DS00002267A-page 67 LAN9117 Bits Description Type Default 0 Soft Reset (SRST). Writing 1 generates a software initiated reset. This reset generates a full reset of the MAC CSR’s. The SCSR’s (system command and status registers) are reset except for any NASR bits. Soft reset also clears any TX or RX errors (TXE/RXE). This bit is self-clearing. Note: SC 0 • Do not attempt a soft reset unless the internal PHY is fully awake and operational. After a PHY reset, or when returning from a reduced power state, the PHY must given adequate time to return to the operational state before a soft reset can be issued. The internal RX_CLK and TX_CLK signals must be running for a proper software reset. Please refer to Section 6.8, "Reset Timing," on page 103 for details on PHY reset timing. • The LAN9117 must always be read at least once after power-up, reset, or upon return from a power-saving state or write operations will not function. 5.3.9.1 Allowable settings for Configurable FIFO Memory Allocation TX and RX FIFO space is configurable through the CSR - HW_CFG register defined above. The user must select the FIFO allocation by setting the TX FIFO Size (TX_FIF_SZ) field in the hardware configuration (HW_CFG) register. The TX_FIF_SZ field selects the total allocation for the TX data path, including the TX Status FIFO size. The TX Status FIFO size is fixed at 512 Bytes (128 TX Status DWORDs). The TX Status FIFO length is subtracted from the total TX FIFO size with the remainder being the TX data FIFO Size. Note that TX data FIFO space includes both commands and payload data. RX FIFO Size is the remainder of the unallocated FIFO space (16384 bytes – TX FIFO Size). The RX Status FIFO size is always equal to 1/16 of the RX FIFO Size. The RX Status FIFO length is subtracted from the total RX FIFO size with the remainder being the RX data FIFO Size. For example, if TX_FIF_SZ = 6 then: Total TX FIFO Size = 6144 Bytes (6KB) TX Status FIFO Size = 512 Bytes (Fixed) TX Data FIFO Size = 6144 – 512 = 5632 Bytes RX FIFO Size = 16384 – 6144 = 10240 Bytes (10KB) RX Status FIFO Size = 10240 / 16 = 640 Bytes (160 RX Status DWORDs) RX Data FIFO Size = 10240 – 640 = 9600 Bytes Table 5-3 shows every valid setting for the TX_FIF_SZ field. Note that settings not shown in this table are reserved and should not be used. Note: The RX data FIFO is considered full 4 DWORDs before the length that is specified in the HW_CFG register.

These sizes are fixed, and cannot be adjusted by the host. As space in the TX MIL (Mac Interface Layer) FIFO frees, data is moved into it from the TX data FIFO. Depending on the size of the frames to be transmitted, the MIL can hold up to two Ethernet frames. This is in addition to any TX data that may be queued in the TX data FIFO. Conversely, as data is received by the LAN9117, it is moved from the MAC to the RX MIL FIFO, and then into the RX data FIFO. When the RX data FIFO fills up, data will continue to collect in the RX MIL FIFO. If the RX MIL FIFO fills up and overruns, subsequent RX frames will be lost until room is made in the RX data FIFO. For each frame of data that is lost, the RX Dropped Frames Counter (RX_DROP) is incremented. RX and TX MIL FIFO levels are not visible to the host processor. RX and TX MIL FIFOs operate independent of the TX adatand RX data and status FIFOs. FIFO levels set for the RX and TX data and Status FIFOs do not take into consideration the MIL FIFOs. 5.3.10 RX_DP_CTRL—RECEIVE DATAPATH CONTROL REGISTER Offset: 78h Size: 32 bits This register is used to discard unwanted receive frames. Bits Description Type Default 31 RX Data FIFO Fast Forward (RX_FFWD): Writing a ‘1’ to this bit causes the RX data FIFO to fast-forward to the start of the next frame. This bit will remain high until the RX data FIFO fast-forward operation has completed. No reads should be issued to the RX data FIFO while this bit is high.

R/W 0b 7 RESERVED RO - 6 PME Buffer Type (PME_TYPE) – When cleared, enables PME to function as an open-drain buffer for use in a Wired-Or configuration. When set, the PME output is a Push-Pull driver. When configured as an open-drain output the PME_POL field is ignored, and the output is always active low. R/W NASR 0b 5-4 WAKE-UP Status (WUPS) – This field indicates the cause of a wake-up event detection as follows R/WC 00 R/W 0b R/W NASR 0b 00b -- No wake-up event detected 01b -- Energy detected 10b -- Wake-up frame or magic packet detected 11b -- Indicates multiple events occurred WUPS bits are cleared by writing a ‘1’ to the appropriate bit. The device must return to the D0 state (READY bit set) before these bits can be cleared. Note: In order to clear this bit, it is required that all event sources be cleared as well. The event sources are described in FIGURE 3-11: PME and PME_INT Signal Generation on page 32. 3 PME indication (PME_IND). The PME signal can be configured as a pulsed output or a static signal, which is asserted upon detection of a wake-up event. When set, the PME signal will pulse active for 50mS upon detection of a wakeup event. When clear, the PME signal is driven continuously upon detection of a wakeup event.

Note: The LAN9117 will not transmit pause frames or assert back pressure if the transmitter is disabled. 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc. DS00002267A-page 75 LAN9117 Bits Description Type Default 31:24 Reserved RO - 23:16 Automatic Flow Control High Level (AFC_HI). Specifies, in multiples of 64 bytes, the level at which flow control will trigger. When this limit is reached the chip will apply back pressure or will transmit a pause frame as programmed in bits [3:0] of this register. R/W 00h During full-duplex operation only a single pause frame is transmitted when this level is reached. The pause time transmitted in this frame is programmed in the FCPT field of the FLOW register in the MAC CSR space. During half-duplex operation each incoming frame that matches the criteria in bits [3:0] of this register will be jammed for the period set in the BACK_DUR field. 15:8 Automatic Flow Control Low Level (AFC_LO). Specifies, in multiples of 64 bytes, the level at which a pause frame is transmitted with a pause time setting of zero. When the amount of data in the RX data FIFO falls below this level the pause frame is transmitted. A pause time value of zero instructs the other transmitting device to immediately resume transmission. The zero time pause frame will only be transmitted if the RX data FIFO had reached the AFC_HI level and a pause frame was sent. A zero pause time frame is sent whenever automatic flow control in enabled in bits [3:0] of this register. Note: When automatic flow control is enabled the AFC_LO setting must always be less than the AFC_HI setting. R/W 00h 7:4 Backpressure Duration (BACK_DUR). When the LAN9117 automatically asserts back pressure, it will be asserted for this period of time. This field has no function and is not used in full-duplex mode. Please refer to Table 55, describing Backpressure Duration bit mapping for more information. R/W 0h 3 Flow Control on Multicast Frame (FCMULT). When this bit is set, the LAN9117 will assert back pressure when the AFC level is reached and a multicast frame is received. This field has no function in full-duplex mode. R/W 0 2 Flow Control on Broadcast Frame (FCBRD). When this bit is set, the LAN9117 will assert back pressure when the AFC level is reached and a broadcast frame is received. This field has no function in full-duplex mode. R/W 0 1 Flow Control on Address Decode (FCADD). When this bit is set, the LAN9117 will assert back pressure when the AFC level is reached and a frame addressed to the LAN9117 is received. This field has no function in full-duplex mode. R/W 0 0 Flow Control on Any Frame (FCANY). When this bit is set, the LAN9117 will assert back pressure, or transmit a pause frame when the AFC level is reached and any frame is received. Setting this bit enables full-duplex flow control when the LAN9117 is operating in full-duplex mode. R/W 0 When this mode is enabled during half-duplex operation, the Flow Controller does not decode the MAC address and will send a pause frame upon receipt of a valid preamble (i.e., immediately at the beginning of the next frame after the RX data FIFO level is reached). When this mode is enabled during full-duplex operation, the Flow Controller will immediately instruct the MAC to send a pause frame when the RX data FIFO level is reached. The MAC will queue the pause frame transmission for the next available window. Setting this bit overrides bits [3:1] of this register. DS00002267A-page 76 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc.

Bits Description Type Default 31 EPC Busy: When a 1 is written into this bit, the operation specified in the EPC command field is performed at the specified EEPROM address. This bit will remain set until the operation is complete. In the case of a read this means that the host can read valid data from the E2P data register. The E2P_CMD and E2P_DATA registers should not be modified until this bit is cleared. In the case where a write is attempted and an EEPROM is not present, the EPC Busy remains busy until the EPC Time-out occurs. At that time the busy bit is cleared. Note: EPC busy will be high immediately following power-up or reset. After the EEPROM controller has finished reading (or attempting to read) the MAC address from the EEPROM the EPC Busy bit is cleared. SC 0 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc. DS00002267A-page 77 LAN9117 Bits Description Type Default 30-28 EPC command. This field is used to issue commands to the EEPROM controller. The EPC will execute commands when the EPC Busy bit is set. A new command must not be issued until the previous command completes. This field is encoded as follows: R/W 0 RO - [30] [29] [28] OPERATION 0 0 0 READ 0 0 1 EWDS 0 1 0 EWEN 0 1 1 WRITE 1 0 0 WRAL 1 0 1 ERASE 1 1 0 ERAL 1 1 1 Reload READ (Read Location): This command will cause a read of the EEPROM location pointed to by EPC Address. The result of the read is available in the E2P_DATA register. EWDS (Erase/Write Disable): After issued, the EEPROM will ignore erase and write commands. To re-enable erase/write operations issue the EWEN command. EWEN (Erase/Write Enable): Enables the EEPROM for erase and write operations. The EEPROM will allow erase and write operations until the Erase/Write Disable command is sent, or until power is cycled. Note: The EEPROM device will power-up in the erase/write-disabled state. Any erase or write operations will fail until an Erase/Write Enable command is issued. WRITE (Write Location): If erase/write operations are enabled in the EEPROM, this command will cause the contents of the E2P_DATA register to be written to the EEPROM location selected by the EPC Address field. WRAL (Write All): If erase/write operations are enabled in the EEPROM, this command will cause the contents of the E2P_DATA register to be written to every EEPROM memory location. ERASE (Erase Location): If erase/write operations are enabled in the EEPROM, this command will erase the location selected by the EPC Address field. ERAL (Erase All): If erase/write operations are enabled in the EEPROM, this command will initiate a bulk erase of the entire EEPROM. RELOAD (MAC Address Reload): Instructs the EEPROM controller to reload the MAC address from the EEPROM. If a value of 0xA5 is not found in the first address of the EEPROM, the EEPROM is assumed to be unprogrammed and MAC Address Reload operation will fail. The “MAC Address Loaded” bit indicates a successful load of the MAC address. 27-10 Reserved. DS00002267A-page 78 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc. LAN9117 Bits Description Type Default 9 EPC Time-out. If an EEPROM operation is performed, and there is no response from the EEPROM within 30mS, the EEPROM controller will timeout and return to its idle state. This bit is set when a time-out occurs indicating that the last operation was unsuccessful. Note: If the EEDIO signal pin is externally pulled-high, EPC commands will not time out if the EEPROM device is missing. In this case the EPC Busy bit will be cleared as soon as the command sequence is complete. It should also be noted that the ERASE, ERAL, WRITE and WRAL commands are the only EPC commands that will time-out if an EEPROM device is not present -and- the EEDIO signal is pulled low R/WC 0 8 MAC Address Loaded. When set, this bit indicates that a valid EEPROM was found, and that the MAC address programming has completed normally. This bit is set after a successful load of the MAC address after power-up, or after a RELOAD command has completed RO - EPC Address. The 8-bit value in this field is used by the EEPROM R/W 00h 7-0 Controller to address the specific memory location in the Serial EEPROM. This is a Byte aligned address. 5.3.24 E2P_DATA – EEPROM DATA REGISTER Offset: B4h Size: 32 bits This register is used in conjunction with the E2P_CMD register to perform read and write operations with the Serial EEPROM Bits Description 31-8 7:0 5.4 Type Default Reserved.

Bits Description 31 Receive All Mode (RXALL). When set, all incoming packets will be received and passed on to the address filtering Function for processing of the selected filtering mode on the received frame. Address filtering then occurs and is reported in Receive Status. When reset, only frames that pass Destination Address filtering will be sent to the Application. 30-24 Reserved 23 Disable Receive Own (RCVOWN). When set, the MAC disables the reception of frames when the MII TX_EN signal is asserted. The MAC blocks the transmitted frame on the receive path. When reset, the MAC receives all packets the PHY gives, including those transmitted by the MAC.This bit should be reset when the Full Duplex Mode bit is set. 22 Reserved 21 Loopback operation Mode (LOOPBK). Selects the loop back operation modes for the MAC. This is only for full duplex mode 1’b0: Normal: No feedback 1’b1: Internal: Through MII In internal loopback mode, the TX frame is received by the Internal MII interface, and sent back to the MAC without being sent to the PHY. Note: When enabling or disabling the loopback mode it can take up to 10s for the mode change to occur. The transmitter and receiver must be stopped and disabled when modifying the LOOPBK bit. The transmitter or receiver should not be enabled within10s of modifying the LOOPBK bit. 20 Full Duplex Mode (FDPX). When set, the MAC operates in Full-Duplex mode, in which it can transmit and receive simultaneously. In Full-Duplex mode, the heartbeat check is disabled and the heartbeat fail status should thus be ignored. 19 Pass All Multicast (MCPAS). When set, indicates that all incoming frames with a Multicast destination address (first bit in the destination address field is 1) are received. Incoming frames with physical address (Individual Address/Unicast) destinations are filtered and received only if the address matches the MAC Address. 18 Promiscuous Mode (PRMS). When set, indicates that any incoming frame is received regardless of its destination address. 17 Inverse filtering (INVFILT). When set, the address check Function operates in Inverse filtering mode. This is valid only during Perfect filtering mode. 16 Pass Bad Frames (PASSBAD). When set, all incoming frames that passed address filtering are received, including runt frames and collided frames. 15 Hash Only Filtering mode (HO). When set, the address check Function operates in the Imperfect Address Filtering mode both for physical and multicast addresses DS00002267A-page 80 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc. LAN9117 Bits Description 14 Reserved 13 Hash/Perfect Filtering Mode (HPFILT). When reset (0), the LAN9117 will implement a perfect address filter on incoming frames according the address specified in the MAC address register. When set (1), the address check Function does imperfect address filtering of multicast incoming frames according to the hash table specified in the multicast hash table register. If the Hash Only Filtering mode (HO) bit is set (1), then the physical (IA) are imperfect filtered too. If the Hash Only Filtering mode (HO) bit is reset (0), then the IA addresses are perfect address filtered according to the MAC Address register 12 Late Collision Control (LCOLL). When set, enables retransmission of the collided frame even after the collision period (late collision). When reset, the MAC disables frame transmission on a late collision. In any case, the Late Collision status is appropriately updated in the Transmit Packet status. 11 Disable Broadcast Frames (BCAST). When set, disables the reception of broadcast frames. When reset, forwards all broadcast frames to the application. Note: When wake-up frame detection is enabled via the WUEN bit of the WUCSR—Wake-up Control and Status Register, a broadcast wake-up frame will wake-up the device despite the state of this bit. 10 Disable Retry (DISRTY). When set, the MAC attempts only one transmission. When a collision is seen on the bus, the MAC ignores the current frame and goes to the next frame and a retry error is reported in the Transmit status. When reset, the MAC attempts 16 transmissions before signaling a retry error. 9 Reserved 8 Automatic Pad Stripping (PADSTR). When set, the MAC strips the pad field on all incoming frames, if the length field is less than 46 bytes. The FCS field is also stripped, since it is computed at the transmitting station based on the data and pad field characters, and is invalid for a received frame that has had the pad characters stripped. Receive frames with a 46-byte or greater length field are passed to the Application unmodified (FCS is not stripped). When reset, the MAC passes all incoming frames to the host unmodified. 7-6 BackOff Limit (BOLMT). The BOLMT bits allow the user to set its back-off limit in a relaxed or aggressive mode. According to IEEE 802.3, the MAC has to wait for a random number [r] of slottimes** after it detects a collision, where: (eq.1)0 < r < 2K The exponent K is dependent on how many times the current frame to be transmitted has been retried, as follows: (eq.2)K = min (n, 10) where n is the current number of retries. If a frame has been retried three times, then K = 3 and r= 8 slot-times maximum. If it has been retried 12 times, then K = 10, and r = 1024 slot-times maximum. An LFSR (linear feedback shift register) 20-bit counter emulates a 20bit random number generator, from which r is obtained. Once a collision is detected, the number of the current retry of the current frame is used to obtain K (eq.2). This value of K translates into the number of bits to use from the LFSR counter. If the value of K is 3, the MAC takes the value in the first three bits of the LFSR counter and uses it to count down to zero on every slot-time. This effectively causes the MAC to wait eight slot-times. To give the user more flexibility, the BOLMT value forces the number of bits to be used from the LFSR counter to a predetermined value as in the table below. BOLMT Value # Bits Used from LFSR Counter 2’b00 10 2’b01 8 2’b10 4 2’b11 1 Thus, if the value of K = 10, the MAC will look at the BOLMT if it is 00, then use the lower ten bits of the LFSR counter for the wait countdown. If the BOLMT is 10, then it will only use the value in the first four bits for the wait countdown, etc. **Slot-time = 512 bit times. (See IEEE 802.3 Spec., Secs. 4.2.3.25 and 4.4.2.1) 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc. DS00002267A-page 81 LAN9117 Bits Description 5 Deferral Check (DFCHK). When set, enables the deferral check in the MAC. The MAC will abort the transmission attempt if it has deferred for more than 24,288 bit times. Deferral starts when the transmitter is ready to transmit, but is prevented from doing so because the CRS is active. Defer time is not cumulative. If the transmitter defers for 10,000 bit times, then transmits, collides, backs off, and then has to defer again after completion of back-off, the deferral timer resets to 0 and restarts. When reset, the deferral check is disabled in the MAC and the MAC defers indefinitely. 4 Reserved 3 Transmitter enable (TXEN). When set, the MAC’s transmitter is enabled and it will transmit frames from the buffer onto the cable. When reset, the MAC’s transmitter is disabled and will not transmit any frames. 2 Receiver Enable (RXEN). When set (1), the MAC’s receiver is enabled and will receive frames from the internal PHY. When reset, the MAC’s receiver is disabled and will not receive any frames from the internal PHY. 1-0 5.4.2 Reserved ADDRH—MAC ADDRESS HIGH REGISTER Offset: 2 Attribute: R/W Default Value: 0000FFFFh Size: 32 bits The MAC Address High register contains the upper 16-bits of the physical address of the MAC. The contents of this register are optionally loaded from the EEPROM at power-on through the EEPROM Controller if a programmed EEPROM is detected. The least significant byte of this register (bits [7:0]) is loaded from address 0x05 of the EEPROM. The second byte (bits [15:8]) is loaded from address 0x06 of the EEPROM. Please refer to Section 4.6 for more information on the EEPROM. Section 5.4.3 details the byte ordering of the ADDRL and ADDRH registers with respect to the reception of the Ethernet physical address. Bits Description 31-16 Reserved 15-0 Physical Address [47:32]. This field contains the upper 16-bits (47:32) of the Physical Address of the LAN9117 device. The content of this field is undefined until loaded from the EEPROM at power-on. The host can update the contents of this field after the initialization process has completed. 5.4.3 ADDRL—MAC ADDRESS LOW REGISTER Offset: 3 Attribute: R/W Default Value: FFFFFFFFh Size: 32 bits The MAC Address Low register contains the lower 32 bits of the physical address of the MAC. The contents of this register are optionally loaded from the EEPROM at power-on through the EEPROM Controller if a programmed EEPROM is detected. The least significant byte of this register (bits [7:0]) is loaded from address 0x01 of the EEPROM. The most significant byte of this register is loaded from address 0x04 of the EEPROM. Please refer to Section 4.6 for more information on the EEPROM. Bits Description 31-0 Physical Address [31:0].

HASHH—MULTICAST HASH TABLE HIGH REGISTER Offset: 4 Attribute: R/W Default Value: 00000000h Size: 32 bits The 64-bit Multicast table is used for group address filtering. For hash filtering, the contents of the destination address in the incoming frame is used to index the contents of the Hash table. The most significant bit determines the register to be used (Hi/Low), while the other five bits determine the bit within the register. A value of 00000 selects Bit 0 of the Multicast Hash Table Lo register and a value of 11111 selects the Bit 31 of the Multicast Hash Table Hi register. If the corresponding bit is 1, then the multicast frame is accepted. Otherwise, it is rejected. If the “Pass All Multicast” (MCPAS) bit is set (1), then all multicast frames are accepted regardless of the multicast hash values. The Multicast Hash Table Hi register contains the higher 32 bits of the hash table and the Multicast Hash Table Low register contains the lower 32 bits of the hash table.

Bits Description 31-16 Reserved 15-11 PHY Address: Selects the external or internal PHY based on its address. The internal PHY is set to address 00001b. 10-6 MII Register Index (MIIRINDA): These bits select the desired MII register in the PHY. 5-2 Reserved 1 MII Write (MIIWnR): Setting this bit tells the PHY that this will be a write operation using the MII data register. If this bit is not set, this will be a read operation, packing the data in the MII data register. 0 MII Busy (MIIBZY): This bit must be polled to determine when the MII register access is complete. This bit must read a logical 0 before writing to this register and MII data register. The LAN driver software must set (1) this bit in order for the LAN9117 to read or write any of the MII PHY registers. During a MII register access, this bit will be set, signifying a read or write access is in progress. The MII data register must be kept valid until the MAC clears this bit during a PHY write operation. The MII data register is invalid until the MAC has cleared this bit during a PHY read operation. DS00002267A-page 84 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc. LAN9117 5.4.7 MII_DATA—MII DATA REGISTER Offset: 7 Attribute: R/W Default Value: 00000000h Size: 32 bits This register contains either the data to be written to the PHY register specified in the MII Access Register, or the read data from the PHY register whose index is specified in the MII Access Register. Bits Description 31-16 Reserved 15-0 MII Data. This contains the 16-bit value read from the PHY read operation or the 16-bit data value to be written to the PHY before an MII write operation. 5.4.8 FLOW—FLOW CONTROL REGISTER Offset: 8 Attribute: R/W Default Value: 00000000h Size: 32 bits This register controls the generation and reception of the Control (Pause command) frames by the MAC’s flow control block. The control frame fields are selected as specified in the 802.3x Specification and the Pause-Time value from this register is used in the “Pause Time” field of the control frame. In full-duplex mode the FCBSY bit is set until the control frame is transferred onto the cable. In half-duplex mode FCBSY is set while back pressure is being asserted. The host has to make sure that the Busy bit is cleared before writing the register. The Pass Control Frame bit (FCPASS) does not affect the sending of the frames, including Control Frames, to the Application Interface. The Flow Control Enable (FCEN) bit enables the receive portion of the Flow Control block. This register is used in conjunction with the AFC_CFG register in the Slave CSRs to configure flow control. Software flow control is initiated using the AFC_CFG register. Note: The LAN9117 will not transmit pause frames or assert back pressure if the transmitter is disabled. Bits Description 31-16 Pause Time (FCPT). This field indicates the value to be used in the PAUSE TIME field in the control frame. This field must be initialized before full-duplex automatic flow control is enabled. 15-3 Reserved 2 Pass Control Frames (FCPASS). When set, the MAC sets the Packet Filter bit in the Receive packet status to indicate to the Application that a valid Pause frame has been received. The Application must accept or discard a received frame based on the Packet Filter control bit. The MAC receives, decodes and performs the Pause function when a valid Pause frame is received in Full-Duplex mode and when flow control is enabled (FCE bit set). When reset, the MAC resets the Packet Filter bit in the Receive packet status. The MAC always passes the data of all frames it receives (including Flow Control frames) to the Application. Frames that do not pass Address filtering, as well as frames with errors, are passed to the Application. The Application must discard or retain the received frame’s data based on the received frame’s STATUS field. Filtering modes (Promiscuous mode, for example) take precedence over the FCPASS bit. 1 Flow Control Enable (FCEN). When set, enables the MAC Flow Control function. The MAC decodes all incoming frames for control frames; if it receives a valid control frame (PAUSE command), it disables the transmitter for a specified time (Decoded pause time x slot time). When reset, the MAC flow control function is disabled; the MAC does not decode frames for control frames. Note: Flow Control is applicable when the MAC is set in Full Duplex Mode. In Half-Duplex mode, this bit enables the Backpressure function to control the flow of received frames to the MAC. 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc. DS00002267A-page 85 LAN9117 Bits Description 0 Flow Control Busy (FCBSY). This bit is set high whenever a pause frame or back pressure is being transmitted. This bit should read logical 0 before writing to the Flow Control (FLOW) register. During a transfer of Control Frame, this bit continues to be set, signifying that a frame transmission is in progress. After the PAUSE control frame’s transmission is complete, the MAC resets to 0. Note: • When writing this register the FCBSY bit must always be zero. • Applications must always write a zero to this bit 5.4.9 VLAN1—VLAN1 TAG REGISTER Offset: 9 Attribute: R/W Default Value: 00000000h Size: 32 bits This register contains the VLAN tag field to identify VLAN1 frames. For VLAN frames the legal frame length is increased from 1518 bytes to 1522 bytes. Bits Description 31-16 Reserved 15-0 VLAN1 Tag Identifier (VTI1). This contains the VLAN Tag field to identify the VLAN1 frames. This field is compared with the 13th and 14th bytes of the incoming frames for VLAN1 frame detection. If used, this register must be set to 0x8100. 5.4.10 VLAN2—VLAN2 TAG REGISTER Offset: A Attribute: R/W Default Value: 00000000h Size: 32 bits This register contains the VLAN tag field to identify VLAN2 frames. For VLAN frames the legal frame length is increased from 1518 bytes to 1522 bytes. Bits Description 31-16 Reserved 15-0 VLAN2 Tag Identifier (VTI2). This contains the VLAN Tag field to identify the VLAN2 frames. This field is compared with the 13th and 14th bytes of the incoming frames for VLAN2 frame detection.If used, this register must be set to 0x8100.

Bits Description 31-0 Wake-Up Frame Filter (WFF). Wake-Up Frame Filter (WFF). The Wake-up frame filter is configured through this register using an indexing mechanism. After power-on reset, hardware reset, or soft reset, the MAC loads the first value written to this location to the first DWORD in the Wake-up frame filter (filter 0 byte mask). The second value written to this location is loaded to the second DWORD in the wake-up frame filter (filter 1 byte mask) and so on. Once all eight DWORDs have been written, the internal pointer will once again point to the first entry and the filter entries can be modified in the same manner. Note: This is a write-only register. 5.4.12 WUCSR—WAKE-UP CONTROL AND STATUS REGISTER Offset: C Attribute: R/W Default Value: 00000000h Size: 32 bits This register contains data pertaining to the MAC’s remote wake-up status and capabilities.

LAN9117 6.0 TIMING DIAGRAMS 6.1 Host Interface Timing The LAN9117 supports the following host cycles: Read Cycles: • • • • PIO Reads (nCS or nRD controlled) PIO Burst Reads (nCS or nRD controlled) RX Data FIFO Direct PIO Reads (nCS or nRD controlled) RX Data FIFO Direct PIO Burst Reads (nCS or nRD controlled) Write Cycles: • PIO writes (nCS and nWR controlled) • TX Data FIFO direct PIO writes (nCS or nWR controlled) 6.1.1 SPECIAL RESTRICTIONS ON BACK-TO-BACK WRITE/READ CYCLES It is important to note that there are specific restrictions on the timing of back-to-back write-read operations. These restrictions concern reading the control registers after any write cycle to the LAN9117 device. In many cases there is a required minimum delay between writing to the LAN9117, and the subsequent side effect (change in the control register value). For example, when writing to the TX Data FIFO, it takes up to 135ns for the level indication to change in the TX_FIFO_INF register. In order to prevent the host from reading stale data after a write operation, minimum wait periods must be enforced. These periods are specified in Table 6-1, "Read After Write Timing Rules". The host processor is required to wait the specified period of time after any write to the LAN9117 before reading the resource specified in the table. These wait periods are for read operations that immediately follow any write cycle. Note that the required wait period is dependent upon the register being read after the write. Performing "dummy" reads of the BYTE_TEST register is a convenient way to ensure that the minimum write-to-read timing restriction is met. Table 6-1 also shows the number of dummy reads that are required before reading the register indicated. The number of BYTE_TEST reads in this table is based on the minimum timing for Tcycle (45ns). For microprocessors with slower busses the number of reads may be reduced as long as the total time is equal to, or greater than the time specified in the table. Note that dummy reads of the BYTE_TEST register are not required as long as the minimum time period is met. 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc.

These restrictions concern reading specific registers after reading resources that have side effects. In many cases there is a delay between reading the LAN9117, and the subsequent indication of the expected change in the control register values. In order to prevent the host from reading stale data on back-to-back reads, minimum wait periods have been established. These periods are specified in Table 6-2, "Read After Read Timing Rules". The host processor is required to wait the specified period of time between read operations of specific combinations of resources. The wait period is dependent upon the combination of registers being read. Performing "dummy" reads of the BYTE_TEST register is a convenient way to ensure that the minimum wait time restriction is met. Table 6-2 also shows the number of dummy reads that are required for back-to-back read operations. The number of BYTE_TEST reads in this table is based on the minimum timing for Tcycle (45ns). For microprocessors with slower busses the number of reads may be reduced as long as the total time is equal to, or greater than the time specified in the table. Dummy reads of the BYTE_TEST register are not required as long as the minimum time period is met. DS00002267A-page 96 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc.

In this mode, counters in the CSRs are latched at the beginning of the read cycle. Read data is valid as indicated in the timing diagram. PIO reads can be performed using Chip Select (nCS) or Read Enable (nRD). Either or both of these control signals must go high between cycles for the period specified. Note: Some registers have restrictions on the timing of back-to-back, write-read and read-read cycles.

Clock Circuit The LAN9117 can accept either a 25MHz crystal (preferred) or a 25 MHz clock oscillator (50 PPM) input. The LAN9117 shares the 25MHz clock oscillator input (CLKIN) with the crystal input XTAL1 (pin 6). If the single-ended clock oscillator method is implemented, XTAL2 should be left unconnected and CLKIN should be driven with a nominal 0-3.3V clock signal. The input clock duty cycle is 40% minimum, 50% typical and 60% maximum. It is recommended that a crystal utilizing matching parallel load capacitors be used for the LAN9117 crystal input/output signals (XTAL1, XTAL2). See Table 7-6, "LAN9117 Crystal Specifications" for crystal specifications. Refer to Microchip Application Note AN10.7 - “Parallel Crystal Circuit Input Voltage Control” and the LAN9117 Reference Schematic for additional information.

Since any particular application must meet the IEEE +/-50 PPM Total PPM Budget, the combination of these two values must be approximately +/-45 PPM (allowing for aging). Note 7-12 Frequency Deviation Over Time is also referred to as Aging. Note 7-13 The total deviation for the Transmitter Clock Frequency is specified by IEEE 802.3u as +/- 50 PPM. Note 7-14 This number includes the pad, the bond wire and the lead frame. PCB capacitance is not included in this value. The XTAL1 and XTAL2 pin and PCB capacitance values are required to accurately calculate the value of the two external load capacitors. These two external load capacitors determine the accuracy of the 25.000 MHz frequency. DS00002267A-page 108 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc.

Internal Block Diagram A PLL regulator block was added and the word “Core” was added to the original regulator block. Table 2-4, “Serial EEPROM Interface Signals,” on page 10 Added note to the EECLK pin: “When the EEPROM interface is not used, the EECLK pin must be left unconnected.” (Per change request 737306-KL0774) Section 3.5, "Wake-up Frame Detection," on page 21 and Section 5.4.1, "MAC_CR—MAC Control Register," on page 80 Added note: “When wake-up frame detection is enabled via the WUEN bit of the WUCSR—Wakeup Control and Status Register, a broadcast wakeup frame will wake-up the device despite the state of the Disable Broadcast Frames (BCAST) bit in the MAC_CR—MAC Control Register.” Section 5.4.12, "WUCSR— Wake-up Control and Status Register," on page 87 Fixed typo in bit 9: “... Mac Address [1:0] bit set to 0.” was changed to “...Mac Address [0] bit set to 0.” Section 5.5.5, "Autonegotiation Advertisement," on page 90 Bits 9 and 15 relabeled as Reserved, Read-Only (RO), with a default of 0. Section 5.5.5, "Autonegotiation Advertisement," on page 90 Fixed definition of bits 11:10 when equal to “11” by adding “advertise support for.” to beginning of definition. Also added note stating “When both symmetric PAUSE and asymmetric PAUSE support are advertised, the device will only be configured to, at most, one of the two settings upon auto-negotiation completion.” Section 7.1, "Absolute Maximum Ratings*," on page 105 and Section 7.2, "Operating Conditions**," on page 105 Removed 1.8V output voltage (VDD_PLL, VDD_CORE) ratings and notes which stated: “These pins must not be used to supply power to other external devices.” These specifications are not needed by the customer since the regulators are not to be used for external applications.
