Description
Chip Register Interface
32
ENREGIO
I
This active low input enables the chip for register operations. This input must be low
before any registers can be written or read.
3
WR
I
Within the chip, this input acts as a write strobe for one of the registers and the register
is addressed through the A[5:0] address inputs. The data being written appears on the
CDST[15:0] data lines and must be set up relative to the rising edge of the write strobe.
This input is active low.
4
RD
I
This input acts as a read strobe for one of the registers and the register is addressed
through the A[5:0] address inputs. When the read strobe is active low, the output
drivers for CDST[15:0] data bus are enabled. Valid register data appears on the data
bus a specified time before the rising edge of the read strobe.
A[5:0]
I
These inputs are the address lines used to select which register is being read or written.
33
BUSSIZE
I
This input when HIGH sets the register interface of the 80C300 to 16-bit mode and
when LOW to 8-bit mode. In 8-bit mode only CDST[7:0] of the CDST data bus is used
for register accesses.
6, 5
BE[1:0]
I
These inputs are active LOW byte enables to enable byte wide register accesses when
the 80C300’s register interface is in 16-bit mode.
CDST[15:0]
I/O
These bidirectional lines carry register data to or from the internal registers of the chip.
These lines are nominally high impedance until their output drivers are enabled by the
RD and ENREGIO input pins being driven low.
59
INT
O
This output is driven high by a variety of transmit and receive interrupt conditions.
It remains high until the status register containing the reason for the interrupt is read.
62
RESET
I
This input is an active low asynchronous chip reset. After reset, all registers except
the Hash and Station Address registers are reset to zero, all FIFOs are cleared, all
counters are reset to zero.
7-12
13-17
20-25
27-31
Receive and Transmit FIFO Interface
34
BUSMODE
I
This input when HIGH sets the FIFO interface to Big Endian mode. In this mode data
written to the transmit FIFO is transmitted most significant byte first. When this pin is
LOW, Little Endian transmit order is used.
43
RXINTEN
I
This is an active low input that acts as a chip enable to enable the receiver interface.
Driving this pin active, enables the output drivers for the RXDC, RXRDY pins. Also, this
pin must be driven active before receive FIFO reads can be performed.
44
TXINTEN
I
This is an active low input that acts as a chip enable to enable the transmitter interface.
Driving this pin active enables the output drivers for the TXRET, TXRDY pins. Also, this
pin must be driven active before transmit FIFO writes can be performed.
46
RXRDEN
I
This is an active low input that, when driven active with the RXINTEN pin, enables read
operations from the receive FIFO within the chip.
47
TXWREN
I
This is an active low input that, when driven active with the TXINTEN pin, enables write
operations to the transmit FIFO within the chip.
45
RXRD_TXWR
I
This is the system clock acting as the chip’s read/write strobe to receive/transmit
FIFO. With the TXINTEN and TXWREN inputs active low, this input becomes the
write strobe for writing transmit data to the chip’s transmit FIFO. Similarly, with the
RXINTEN and RXRDEN inputs active low, this input becomes the read strobe for
reading receive data from one of the chip’s receive FIFO. This input must be connected
to a continuous clock whose maximum frequency can be 33 MHz.

42
I
These are active low inputs that determine which bytes of the double word for a
receive FIFO read are driven with valid data or which bytes of a double word being
written to a transmit FIFO contain valid data.
53
TXRDY
O
This is an active high tristate output. When enabled, this output functions as a flag
that indicates whether the transmit FIFO has enough space available to meet the
threshold value programmed in the FIFO threshold register. When enabled, a high
value on the output indicates that the transmit FIFO has greater than or equal to the
threshold number of double word spaces available in the FIFO and a low value
indicates it does not. The tristate driver for the output is enabled by a low value on
the TXINTEN input pin.
54
RXRDY
O
This is an active high tristate output. When enabled, this output functions as a flag
that indicates whether the receive FIFO has enough data available to meet the
threshold value programmed in the FIFO threshold register. When enabled, a high
value on the output indicates that the receive FIFO has greater than or equal to the
threshold number of double words available in the FIFO or has a completed receive
packet in the FIFO as indicated by the packets status double word being in the FIFO.
The tristate driver for the output is enabled by a low value on the RXINTEN input
pin.
50
SPDTAVL
O
This is an active high output that can be used for validating reads from the receive
FIFO during a read operation and preventing over writes to the transmit FIFO during
a write operation. For further details, please refer to the Transmit Data Write Timing
and the Receive Data Read Timing diagrams.
51
RXTXEOF
I/O
This is a bidirectional pin that is used to signal the last double word of a transmit or
receive packet. During receive FIFO reads this pin is enabled as an output and
when detected high indicates that the last double word, and or the status double
word, of a receive packet has been read from the receive FIFO. During transmit
FIFO writes this pin is an input and when asserted high during a write, it indicates
that this is the final double word of a transmit packet. In the transmit FIFO write
case, the value of this signal is stored as the 33rd bit in the FIFO. In the receive FIFO
read case, the value of this signal is read out as the 33rd bit of the receive FIFO.
52
TXNOCRC
I
This active high input is used to control appending of a CRC to a transmit packet.
A transmit packet can be made to exclude appending a CRC value if this input is
held high during the first double word write of transmit data to the transmit FIFO.
I/O
This is the bidirectional 32 bit data bus for reads or writes to the chip’s receive or
transmit FIFOs. For receive FIFO reads, it is enabled as an output with the assertion
of the RXINTEN, RXRDEN, and a low value on the RXRD_TXWR input strobe.
Otherwise, it is used as an input.

Transmit and Receive Exception Indicators
61
TXRET
O
This is an active high tristate output. This output pin is driven by tristate drivers
enabled by an active low being driven onto the TXINTEN input pin. Once enabled,
a high value on this input indicates that the chip could not complete transmission
of a packet due to one of the following conditions and that a retransmission of the
packet is requested:
1. A late collision occurred during transmission.
2. Carrier sense never went high or dropped out
during transmission.
3. During a transmission attempt, a transmit FIFO underflow error occurred.
4. 16 attempts to transmit the packet all resulting
in transmit collisions.
Internally, the TXRET signal will remain high until it is cleared by the CLRTXERR
pin, (See the text on clearing error conditions). As long as the internal TXRET signal
remains high, the transmit FIFO will remain cleared and no new transmissions can
occur.
60
T16COLL
O
This is an active high tristate output. This output pin is driven by tristate drivers
enabled by an active low being driven onto the TXINTEN input pin. Once enabled,
a high value on this input indicates that 16 attempts to transmit a packet failed due
to 16 collisions. This output is cleared the same way the TXRET is cleared by using
the CLRTXERR input.
55
RXDC
O
This is an active high tristate output. This pin driven by tristate drivers enabled by
a low value being driven onto the RXINTEN input pin. Once enabled, a high value
on the input indicates that the chip discarded reception of a packet due to one of the
possible receive discard conditions. Internally, a RXDC signal will remain high until
it is cleared by the CLRRXERR pin, (See the text on clearing error conditions). As
long as the internal RXDC signal remains high, the receive FIFO will remain cleared
and no new packets will be received.
Special Purpose Pins
49
CLRTXERR
I
This active high input is used to clear transmit retry flags within the chip. See the
"Detecting and Clearing a Transmit Retry Condition" section for how this input is
used.
48
CLRRXERR
I
This active high input is used to clear Receive Discard flags within the chip. See
the "Detecting and Clearing a Receive Discard Condition" section for how this input
is used.
57
RXABORT
I
This input when pulsed high causes the chip to abort reception of a receive frame
and clear the Receive FIFO. It can be asserted at any time during the reception of
a frame.
108
ADUPLX
I
This active low input is used to set the chip into Full Duplex Mode. In this mode
the transmitter will not defer to an active carrier sense signal.
56
RXBYT12
O
This is an active high output that when high indicates that at least the first 12 bytes
of a packet are available within the receive FIFO. Internally this signal is reset to
0 upon Carrier Sense, or Receive Data Valid in MII mode, going low. This is
synchronized with respect to the high going edge of the RXRD_TXWR clock.
58
RXOVF
O
This is an active high output that when pulsed high indicates that the receive FIFO
overflowed. This signal is pulsed high for one byte time, (two RXC clock periods in
MII mode or eight RXC clock periods in 10 Mbit/sec serial mode).

Description
Media Independent Interface (MII)
117
TXC
I
This is the transmit clock input for the chip. In standard 10 Mbit/sec Serial Mode,
this is a 10 Mhz, 50% duty cycle transmit clock used to synchronize the transmit data
from the chip to the encoder. In this mode, transmit data appears serially on the
TXD0 output and all transitions of transmit data and the TXEN output occur from the
falling edge of the clock. In MII mode, this is a 2.5/25 Mhz, 50% duty cycle clock,
and the transmit data appears on the TXD0 through TXD3 outputs. In this mode
transitions of transmit data and the TXEN output occur from the rising edge of the
clock.
112
RXER
I
This input is internally connected to an 8 bit counter used for counting symbol
errors coming in from the PHY.
TXD[3:0]
O
In standard 10 Mbit/sec Serial Mode, TXD0 is the serial transmit data output from
the chip to the encoder. In MII mode, these outputs drive a nibble of transmit data
every leading edge of the TXC clock from the chip to the encoder.
122
TXEN
O
This output from the chip is used to activate the encoder. In standard 10 Mbit/sec
Serial Mode, it becomes active when the first bit of the Preamble is transmitted and
inactive when the last bit of the frame is transmitted. In 100 Mbit/sec mode, this
output becomes active when the first nibble of the Preamble is transmitted and
inactive when the last nibble of the frame is transmitted. This output is active high.
109
RXC
I
In standard 10Mbit/sec Serial Mode, this input is a 10Mhz, 50% duty cycle nominal
receive clock which is used to synchronize incoming data from the decoder to the
chip. In 10Mbit/sec Serial Mode CSN and RXD0 are assumed to transition from the
leading edge of this clock. In MII mode this clock is a 2.5/25 Mhz, 50% duty cycle
receive clock that synchronizes incoming nibble wide data from the decoder to the
chip. In MII mode data and the RXDV signal are assumed to transition from the
falling edge of the clock.
RXD[3:0]
I
In standard 10 Mbit/sec Serial Mode, RXD0 is the serial input data to the chip from
the decoder. In this mode pins RXD[3:1] can have any logic value but must not be
left floating. In MII mode, these inputs are driven with a nibble of receive data every
falling edge of the RXC clock from the encoder to the chip.
111
CSN
I
This is the carrier sense input which indicates there is traffic on the transmission
medium. Carrier sense becomes active with the first bit of the Preamble received,
and inactive one bit time after the last bit of the frame is received. This is an active
high input.
110
RX_DV
I
In MII mode this input is receive data valid. Receive data valid becomes active with
the first nibble of synchronized and decoded Preamble or SFD appearing on the
RXD[3:0] lines and goes inactive one clock time after the last nibble of the frame is
received. In 10 Mbit/sec Serial Mode this input is not used and can have any logic
value but must not be left floating. This is an active high input.
123
COLL
I
This input indicates that a transmission contention has occurred on the transmission medium. Collision is indicated to the chip by an active high pulse on the COLL
input and is automatically reset at the end of the JAM sequence transmission.

transmitted and received in packets or frames. An Ethernet frame consists of a preamble, two address fields, a
byte-count field, a data field and a frame check sequence
(FCS). Each field has a specific format which is described
in detail below. An Ethernet frame has a minimum length
of 64 bytes and a maximum length of 1518 bytes exclusive
of the preamble. The Ethernet frame format is shown in the
figure above.
The 80C300 is feature compatible with SEEQ’s 84C300A
Ethernet Media Access Controller. These features include: 64 bit Multicast filter, Transmit no CRC, Transmit no
Preamble, Transmit Packet Autopadding, Receive CRC,
Receive Own Transmit Disable, Receive Group Address
Mode, Fast Receive Discard Mode, and Full Duplex Mode.
Additionally, the 80C300 supports: programmable defer
time between transmit packets, appending value of FCS
on a packet-by-packet basis, and pin-controllable per-port
receive packet abort.
FIRST BYTE
A high-bandwidth universal system interface is provided
which is compatible with many microprocessor or system
busses, easing the integration of the 80C300 into many
system architectures. Its 32-bit data path width is provided
to provide the bandwidth necessary to maintain Full Duplex wire speed communications. Two 128 byte FIFOs are
provided to ease bus multiplexing and interfacing to different clock domains.

chip can be prevented from appending an FCS value to a
packet by setting bit #4 of the Configuration Register #1.
As long as this bit is high, any packet transmitted will not
include an FCS value unless it is written as part of the
transmit data written to the transmit FIFO. Appending of a
FCS value can be controlled on a packet per packet basis
by using the TXNOCRC pin as long as the TXNOCRC TxRx Configuration register bit has not been set high. If the
TXNOCRC pin is held high (or) if the TXNOCRC bit is set
anytime during the duration of a packet write to the transmit
FIFO, that particular packet will not be appended with a
CRC value.
Destination Address: The Destination Address is a 6byte field containing either a specific Station Address, a
Broadcast Address, or a Multicast Address to which this
frame is directed.
Source Address: The Source Address is a 6-byte field
containing the specific Station Address from which this
frame originated.
Byte-Count Field: The Byte-Count Field consists of two
bytes providing the number of valid data bytes in the Data
Field, 46 to 1500. This field is uninterpreted at the Data
Link Layer, and is passed through the EDLC chip to be
handled at the Client Layer.
Transmit No CRC
Data Field: The Data Field consists of 46 to 1500 bytes of
information which are fully transparent in the sense that
any arbitrary sequence of bytes may occur.
Frame Check Sequence: The Frame Check Sequence
(FCS) field is a 32-bit cyclic redundancy check (CRC)
value computed as a function of the Destination Address
Field, Source Address Field, Type Field and Data Field.
The FCS is appended to each transmitted frame, and used
at reception to determine if the received frame is valid.

3.2.2 Transmission Initiation in Full Duplex and
CSMA/CD Networks
3.2 PACKET TRANSMISSION
The transmit data stream consists of the Preamble, four
information fields, and the FCS which is computed in real
time by the chip and automatically appended to the frame
at the end of the data. The Preamble is also generated by
the chip and transmitted immediately prior to the Destination Address. Destination Address, Source Address, Type
Field and Data Field are prepared in the buffer memory
prior to initiating transmission. The chip encapsulates
these fields into an Ethernet frame by inserting a preamble
prior to these information fields and appending a CRC after
the information fields. The chip can be programmed to
exclude inclusion of the preamble and/or the FCS from the
transmit data stream. In this case, it is assumed that the
preamble and FCS are provided as part of the data written
to the channel.
Packet transmission begins with one of the following
conditions:
1. Data in the transmit FIFO meets or exceeds a userdefined threshold value or,
2. An EOF is asserted with the last data word written into
the transmit FIFO.
The transmit threshold value is controlled by programming
bits 7 through 4 of the Configuration Register #3. The
default value is 0 (zero), which enables the MAC to begin
packet transmission with as little as one double word in the
FIFO. The threshold, measured in double words, is equal
to the number programmed into Transmit Control Register
times 2. Thus, if the upper four bits of the register contain
the value 3hex, then the transmission is defered until there
are at least 6 double words of data in the FIFO.
3.2.1 Controlling Transmit Packet Encapsulation
As was mentioned in the previous paragraph, the chip can
be programmed for exclusion of the FCS and/or the
preamble when transmitting a packet. To program the chip
for transmitting a packet without creating a preamble, bit
#2 of the Configuration Register #1 should be written high.
Once this bit is set, all packets transmitted by the chip will
not include a preamble pattern unless it is part of the data
written to the transmit FIFO by the system. Similarly, the
Packet transmission initiation is also dependent upon
whether the 80C300 is in Full Duplex or CSMA/CD mode.
If the Chip is in CSMA/CD mode, transmission may also be
prevented or delayed due to activity on the shared network
medium. If the network is not busy due to other data traffic,
12

transmission will begin after the appropriate defer time
(from end of previous traffic) has expired. Otherwise,
transmission is delayed until after current data transfers
are complete, and the defer time requirements have been
satisfied. Following the IEEE 802.3 specifications, the
minimum defer time is split into two periods. The beginning
of the defer time occurs upon the transmitter sensing
carrier sense going LOW. Once this case occurs then if
carrier sense is reasserted during the 1st period of the
defer time, the transmitter will reset its defer time counter
and restart the total defer timeout period from 0. If carrier
sense is reasserted during the 2nd period of the total defer
time interval, the transmitter will ignore carrier sense and
start transmission as soon as the defer time is met. The 1st
period of the total defer time is programmable through use
of the transmit defer register. The second period of the
defer time interval is either 3.2 µs or 0.32 µs depending on
whether the chip is in 10Mbit/sec or 100Mbit/sec mode.
The total default defer time for 10Mbit/sec serial mode is
9.6 µs as measured from TXEN going LOW to TXEN going
High assuming the transmit defer register is at 00 hex and
assuming that the TXEN going LOW to CSN going LOW
delay of the physical device is less than 5 TXC clock
periods. When the chip is in Full Dulex mode, transmission
of data onto the network occurs independent of whether
carrier sense indicates a busy network condition or not.
of a transmission, this is considered to represent a serious
network error. Upon any one of these two error conditions
occurring the Transmit FIFO will be cleared and the
TXRET output will be driven HIGH. If the TXRET signal
was driven HIGH due to 16 transmission attempts, the
T16COLL signal will also be driven HIGH. When either of
the two above error conditions occurs, retransmission of
any packets that were in the transmit FIFO requires first
clearing the TXRET error condition and then reloading the
packet or packets in the Transmit FIFO.
Scheduling of retransmission is determined by a controlled randomization process called Truncated Binary
Exponential Backoff. The chip waits a random interval
between 0 and 2 K slot times (51.2 µs per slot time for 10
Mbit Ethernet or 5.12 µs per slot time for 100 Mbit Ethernet)
before attempting retransmission, where “K” is the current
transmission attempt number (not to exceed 10).
TXRET conditions that will reset the backoff counter
Case 1: During packet transmission, a carrier sense
dropout occurs but no collision occurs.
Case 2: 16 attempts to transmit a packet failed due to
collisions.
3.2.4 Transmit Termination Conditions
The chip will terminate transmission under the following
conditions.
Because of the variability in delays given for TXEN going
LOW to CSN going LOW for different 100Mbit/sec physical
devices, the default defer time in 100 Mbit/sec MII mode
has been set assuming full duplex conditions where carrier
sense is not monitored by the transmitter. In this case the
default is 0.96 µs from TXEN going LOW to TXEN going
HIGH. To adjust the defer time to some other value, the
programmable defer register can be set using the formulas
given in the section describing the defer register. When
transmission begins, the chip activates the transmit enable (TXEN) line concurrently with the transmission of the
first bit, or first nibble in the MII case, of the Preamble and
keeps it active for the duration of the transmission.
Normal: The frame has been transmitted successfully
without contention. Loading of the last data byte into a
Transmit FIFO is signaled to the chip by activation of its
RxTxEOF signal concurrently with the last double word of
data loaded into the Transmit FIFO. This line acts as the
thirty-third bit in the Transmit FIFO. After the last valid byte
of the last double word has been transmitted, if the chip is
not in Transmit No CRC mode, then the CRC is appended
and transmitted concluding frame transmission. The
Transmission Successful bit of the Transmit Status Register will be set by a normal termination.
3.2.3 Collision on transmit
On the occurrence of a transmit collision condition that
does not represent the 16th transmission attempt for the
packet or does not occur after 64 byte times into the
transmission, the controller will automatically attempt to
retransmit the packet. First, the controller will halt the
transmission of data from the FIFO and begin transmitting
a Jam pattern consisting of 55555555 hex. The controller
will also reset the Transmit FIFO read address pointer
back to the beginning of the transmit packet within the
FIFO. At the end of transmitting the Jam pattern the
controller will then begin the Backoff wait period. Once the
backoff period is finished, the controller will automatically
retransmit the packet. If a packet reaches 16 retransmission attempts without success due to collisions, or if a
collision occurs later than 64 Byte times after the beginning
Collision: Transmission attempted by two or more Ethernet nodes. The Jam sequence is transmitted, the Collision status bit is set, transmit Collision Counter is updated,
the Backoff interval begun, and the Transmit FIFO address
is set to point to the beginning of the packet for retransmission automatically.
Underflow: Transmit data is not ready when needed for
transmission. Once transmission has begun, the chip on
average requires one transmit double word every 3200 ns
for 10 Mbit Ethernet or 320 ns for 100 Mbit Ethernet in order
to avoid Transmit FIFO underflow (starvation). If this
condition occurs, it terminates the transmission, issues a
TXRET signal, and sets the Transmit-Underflow status bit.

Figure 3. Typical Application Example
16 Transmission Attempts: If a Collision occurs for the
sixteenth consecutive time, the 16-Transmission-Attempts status bit is set, the Collision status bit is set, the
TXRET and TI6COLL signals are generated, and the
Backoff interval is begun. The counter that keeps track of
the number of collisions is modulo 16 and therefore rolls
over on the 17th collision. The Transmit Attempt Register
described on page 30 allows the user to determine how
many transmission attempts were required to successfully
transmit the packet.
4. 16 attempts to transmit the packet all resulting in
transmit collisions.
Any of the above conditions will cause the chip to flush the
transmit FIFO and initiate a transmit retry request. With
initiation of a transmit Retry Request, the TXRDY output
will go low and stay low until the TXRET flag is cleared.
Similar to the receive discard signal, the transmit retry
signal going to the external TXRET pin is latched upon a
transmit retry condition and held high until cleared. Until
the transmit retry signal is cleared, no new transmit packets can be written to the transmit FIFO.
Late Collision: If a Collision occurs greater than 64 byte
times after the transmission begins, this is considered a
late collision error. Upon this condition, the transmission
is terminated, the TXRET output is driven HIGH, and the
late collision status bit is set.
3.2.6 Detection and Clearing a Transmit Retry
Condition
To enable the output driver for the TXRET pin, the
TXINTEN input is driven low. Once a Tx retry condition is
detected, the internal Tx retry signal should be cleared.
Then by driving the TXINTEN input low and then pulsing
the CLRTXERR input high for a minimum of one
RXRD_TXWR clock cycle, the TXRET signal is cleared.
The TXINTEN input must not change during the high time
of the CLRTXERR input.
At the completion of every transmission or retransmission,
new status information is loaded into the Transmit Status
Register. Dependent upon the bits enabled in the Transmit Command Register, an interrupt will be generated for
the just completed transmission.
3.2.5 Error Conditions That Will Cause TXRET
to go HIGH
Detection of a HIGH value on the TXRET pin indicates that
the chip could not complete transmission of a packet due
to one or more of the following conditions:
3.3 Packet Reception
The chip continuously monitors the network. When activity
is recognized via the Carrier Sense (CSN) signal in 10
Mbit/sec Serial Mode, or through the Receive Data Valid
(RX_DV) signal in MII mode, the chip will then synchronize
itself to the incoming data stream through recognition of
the Start Frame Delimiter (SFD) at the end of Preamble.
The destination address field of the frame is then examined. Depending on the Address Match Mode specified,
the chip will either recognize the frame as being addressed
to itself in a general or specific fashion or abort the frame
reception.
1. A transmit FIFO underflow occurred while
transmitting the packet.
2. A late collision occurred while transmitting the
packet.
3. Carrier sense never went active during
transmission or went from an active to inactive
state during transmission.

3.3.1 Preamble Processing
The chip recognizes activity on the Ethernet via its Carrier
Sense (CSN) line in 10 Mbit/sec Serial Mode or through its
Receive Data Valid (RX_DV) line in MII mode. In 10 MBit/
sec Serial Mode, the end of preamble is detected by a
double 1 serial receive data pattern preceded by 6 bits of
alternating 1’s and 0’s. In MII mode, the end of preamble
is recognized by the following nibble pattern:
selected and bits 3 thru 5 to determine which bit according
to the following tables:

In 10 MBit/sec Serial Mode, detection of a double 0 pattern
16 bit times after CSN goes high and before a proper Start
Frame Delimiter pattern is received, will prevent reception
of the packet by the receiver. In MII mode, when RX_DV
goes high the RXD[3:0] lines must be driven with 0 or more
bytes of proper preamble pattern followed by one byte of
proper SFD.

Broadcast Address: The six incoming destination address bytes must all be FF hex. If the chip is programmed
to accept Broadcast or Multicast Addresses, the frame will
be received.
If the incoming frame is addressed to the chip specifically
(Destination Address matches the contents of the Station
Address Register), or is of general or group interest
(Broadcast or Multicast Address), the chip will pass the
frame exclusive of Preamble and FCS to the CPU buffer
and indicate any error conditions at the end of the frame.
If, however, the address does not match, as soon as the
mismatch is recognized, the chip will terminate reception
and discard the packet. All packet discards due to address
mismatches are handled within the chip and will not cause
the RXDC pin to go HIGH. This is true because determination of an address mismatch condition occurs before
any portion of a receive packet is written to the receive
FIFO.
Address
Station Address (Physical)
Multicast/Broadcast Address
(logical)
Address matching occurs as follows:
Station Address: All destination address bytes must
match the corresponding bytes found in the Station Address Register. If Group Address mode is enabled, the last
4 bits of the station address are masked out during address
matching.
After computing the FCS on the first six bytes of the
address field (Destination address), the chip uses bits 0
thru 5 as an address to its Multi-cast address filter register.
Bit 0 of the FCS is assumed to be where receive data
enters the FCS generation circuitry. If the corresponding
bit addressed in the Multicast address filter register is a ‘1’
the chip will receive the frame, otherwise it will discard the
frame. Addressing of the Multicast address filter register
occurs using bits 0 thru 2 to determine which byte is
The chip may be programmed via the Match Mode bits of
the Receive Command Register to ignore all frames (Disable Receiver), accept all frames (Promiscuous mode),
accept frames with the proper Station Address or the
Broadcast Address (Station/Broadcast), or accept all
frames with the proper Station Address, the Broadcast
Address, or all Multicast Addresses (Station/Broadcast/
Multicast).

Status Registers.
2. All the counter registers are read only. All other registers except for the Transmit and Receive

2. Bit 1 of the Rx command register is LOW and a
packet with a CRC error was received.
3.3.3 Conditions of Receive Termination
Reception is terminated when either of the following conditions occur:
3. Bit 2 of the Rx command register is LOW and an
oversized packet is received.
Carrier Sense or Receive Data Valid Inactive: Indicates
that traffic is no longer present on the Ethernet cable.
4. Bit 3 of the Rx command register is LOW and a packet
with less than 64 bytes of data was received.
Overflow: The host node for some reason is not able to
empty the Receive FIFO as rapidly as it is filled, and an
error occurs as frame data is lost. On an average, the
Receive FIFO must be serviced every 3200 ns for 10 Mbit
Ethernet or 320 ns for 100 Mbit Ethernet to avoid this
condition.
5. The Receiver is not in promiscuous mode and a
address mismatch occurs.
6. Bit 4 of Configuration register 2 is LOW and the
RXABORT pin is driven high while CSN is high.
3.3.4 Using RXABORT pin to Terminate Reception
By pulsing the RXABORT pin high for a minimum of 1.5
RXC cycles, reception of a packet can be terminated.
When reception of a packet is terminated this way, the
Receive FIFO will be cleared and will stay cleared until
carrier sense in 10 MBit Serial Mode or Receive Data Valid
in MII mode, transitions from high to low or from low to high
indicating either the end of the packet being aborted or the
beginning of a new receive packet. It is important to note
that RXABORT will cause the RXDC pin to go HIGH based
on the conditions described in the section “Conditions that
Cause the RXDC Pin to go High”.
Discarding of a receive packet will cause any packet data
that was written to the receive FIFO to be flushed from the
FIFO. If no completely received packets are in the receive
FIFO at the time a receive discard occurs, the receive FIFO
will be completely flushed of data. If however a completely
received packet, as indicated by the packet’s status
double word having been written to the FIFO, is in the
receive FIFO at the time of a receive discard, the FIFO will
be flushed only up to the last completely received packet.
To prevent a receive packet from being discarded due to
an error condition, you can selectively enable the reception of errored packets as described in the section “Receive Command Register”.
The assertion of RXDC is done so that an external processor will always have an indication of a packet abortion
irrespective of whether its aborted by the user or by an
external PHY. However, the assertion of the RXDC signal
can be avoided by setting bit 4 of configuration register #2.
This will enable the reception of any packet irrespective of
whether the RXABORT pin goes HIGH during packet
reception.
Conditions that Cause the RXDC Pin to go HIGH
As packets are discarded due to the receive packet error
conditions given in the section “Receive Discard Conditions”, the RXDC pin may or may not assert. If a receive
packet’s status has been written to the receive FIFO and
the packet’s status has not yet been read from the FIFO,
discards caused by following packets with errors are
handled within the chip and the RXDC pin will not go HIGH.
If all status double words for all packets written to the FIFO
have been read out, then the RXDC pin will go HIGH under
the following condition:
3.3.5 Receive Discard Conditions
Receive packets can be discarded for not meeting the
minimum IEEE 802.3 requirements for a good packet, for
address mismatches when the chip is not in promiscuous
mode, and by either user intervention or symbol errors
occurring from a 100 Mbit/sec physical device. in the case
of discards due to oversized packets, address mismatches, or the assertion of the RXABORT pin during
packet reception, further writing of receive packet data to
the receive FIFO is halted once the mismatch, receive
abort or oversized packet condition is determined.
1. Enough of a receive packet has been written to the
FIFO to cause RXRDY to go HIGH before the packet
is discarded due to an error condition.
2. If there are no status double words in the receive
FIFO and if RXRDY goes HIGH just before a discard
condition occurs, RXRDY may go LOW again before
any FIFO reads have occurred. This is due to the
receive discard clearing the FIFO of any receive
bytes already written to the FIFO. In this case,
RXRDY is guaranteed to remain HIGH for at least
one RXRD_TXWR clock cycle.
Except for discards due to address mismatches and oversized packets, all packet discards occur after carrier
sense, or Receive Data Valid in MII mode, deasserts. The
discarding of receive packets for error conditions can be
controlled through bits 0 through 3 of the receive command
register, and through bit 4 of configuration register #2.
Listed below are the required conditions for a receive
discard to be produced:
Detecting and Clearing a Receive Discard Condition
To enable the output driver for the RXDC pin, the
RXINTEN input must be driven low. Once a discard
condition is detected, the receive discard can be cleared
1. Bit 0 of the Rx command register is LOW and a
receive FIFO overflow occurred during reception.

by driving the RXINTEN input low and then pulsing the
CLRRXERR input high for a minimum of one
RXRD_TXWR clock cycle. The RXINTEN input must not
change state for the duration of the time that the
CLRRXERR input is high.
80C300 register accesses can be set to 16-bit or 8-bit
mode by tying the BUSSIZE pin HIGH or LOW. In 16-bit
mode it is still possible to perform byte wide accesses by
using the BE[1:0] byte enable pins. The BUSSIZE and
BE[1:0] pins are used only by the 80C300's register
interface and are not part of the FIFO interface control.
Clearing Interrupts
Both receive and transmit interrupts are combined into a
single interrupt signal which then goes to the INT output
pin. The interrupt signal in the chip is actually the result of
the receive/transmit status register outputs and the receive/transmit command register interrupt enable bits that
are set. To clear an interrupt, the status that caused the
interrupt needs to be cleared. This can be accomplished
by reading the transmit status register and/or the receive
status register.
3.5 FIFO Format
3.5.1 Little Endian and Big Endian Format
The FIFO interface control includes the BUSMODE pin
which sets the 80C300 FIFO interface to Big Endian or
Little Endian byte transmit/receive data order. In Big
Endian mode, data written to the transmit FIFO is transmitted most significant byte of the RXTXDATA bus first and
least significant byte of the RXTXDATA bus last. In Little
Endian mode, the least significant byte of each double
word is transmitted first and the most significant byte of
each double word is transmitted last. The figure shown
below depicts the difference in byte transmission order for
Big Endian verses Little Endian mode. On the receive side,
if Big Endian mode is in effect then the first data bytes
received are assumed to be the most significant bytes of
3.4 SYSTEM INTERFACE
The Chip’s system interface consists of one receive/
transmit 32-bit bidirectional data bus, one 8/16-bit bidirectional command/status data bus, and the control signals of
the respective buses. Receive FIFO data is read and
Transmit FIFO data is written over the RXTXDATA[31:0]
bus, and Command/Status data is written or read over the
bidirectional CDST[15:0] data bus.

the double word and appear on the most significant portion
of the RXTXDATA bus for receive FIFO reads. The receiver reverses this order if the chip is in Little Endian
mode. The value of the BUSMODE pin has no effect on the
operation of the 80C300's register interface.
Using the 80C300 in 8 bit or 16 bit mode.
The transmit and the receive FIFO are 128 bytes deep
organized as double word (32 bits) rows. During writes to
the transmit FIFO, the FIFO pointer gets incremented on
every write to the FIFO, irrespective of whether all the four
byte enables are asserted or not. Hence, during non
double word writes to the FIFO, one entire row of the FIFO
gets filled irrespective of whether all the bytes are valid or
not. The 80C300 automatically ignores the invalid bytes
when the data gets transmitted from the FIFO.
3.5.2 Transmit FIFO Interface
To determine if the transmit FIFO has reached its threshold number of double words of space available, the
TXRDY output can be enabled by driving the TXINTEN
input low. The TXRDY output will be high if there is enough
space available in the transmit FIFO to meet or exceed the
programmed threshold value.
Effect of Auto Retransmission Upon TXRDY Behavior
As a packet is read out of the Transmit FIFO by the
transmitter for transmission onto the network, the TXRDY
signal will not reflect any reads that have occurred to the
FIFO until enough bytes of data have been transmitted to
get past the normal collision window of less than 64 byte
times. This means that if TXRDY goes low during the
writing of a packet to the Transmit FIFO, it will not go HIGH
again until both of the following conditions are true:
Once the TXRDY output is determined to be high, the
transmit FIFO can be written. To write to the Transmit
FIFO, the TXWREN and TXINTEN inputs must be asserted low and at least one of the RXTXBE byte enables
must be low for each write cycle. All of the above inputs
are clocked into the chip on the high going edge of the
RXRD_TXWR clock input which also acts as the FIFO
write strobe. Because of this pipe lining, the actual FIFO
write will occur one RXRD_TXWR cycle after the assertion
of the Transmit FIFO interface control signals. Valid
combinations of the RXTXBE inputs for transmit FIFO
writes are given below:

1. The packet has been completely transmitted or a point
64 byte times from the beginning of the transmission
has been reached.
2. The number of bytes taken out of the transmit FIFO
for transmission subtracted from the number of bytes
written to the FIFO leaves the FIFO with enough double
word space available to meet the threshold setting.
It is important to note that until the packet is completely
transmitted or until enough of the packet is transmitted to
get past the normal collision window, the TXRDY output
will only reflect how many writes have occurred and will not
reflect how much of the FIFO data has been read out for
transmission. Because of this it is important to insure
enough packet data has been written to prevent FIFO
underflows if there exists a large latency between the
TXRDY output being determined HIGH and the writing of
more data to the FIFO.
The TXRDY output will remain high until the chip's transmit
FIFO no longer has enough double word space to meet the
programmed threshold value.
3.5.3 Receive FIFO Interface
To determine if the receive FIFO has reached its threshold
number of double words of data, the RXRDY output can be
enabled by driving the RXINTEN input low. The RXRDY
output for the chip will be high under one of the following
conditions:
While transmit FIFO writes are occurring, the SPDTAVL
output will remain high until the highgoing edge of the write
to the second to the last remaining double word space in
the FIFO. Because transmit FIFO writes are pipelined,
there will always be one more FIFO write after TXWREN
is deasserted externally.
1. There are enough double words of data in the
channel's receive FIFO to meet or exceed the
programmed threshold value.
4-19
19
MD400145/G
80C300
2. The status double word for a receive packet with
an end of frame value of HIGH is in the receive FIFO.
In the case of RXRDY being driven LOW upon condition
two given above, it will remain LOW for 8 RXRD_TXWR
clock cycles and then goes back HIGH if one of the
conditions for RXRDY being HIGH is met.
Once the RXRDY output is determined to be high, the
receive FIFO can be read. To read from the Receive FIFO,
the RXRDEN and RXINTEN inputs must be asserted low
and the RXTXBE byte enables must be low for each read
cycle. Similar to the Transmit FIFO interface, all of the
above Receive FIFO interface control signals are clocked
into the chip on the high going edge of the RXRD_TXWR
clock input which also acts as the FIFO read strobe.
Because of this pipe lining the actual FIFO read will occur
one RXRD_TXWR cycle after the assertion of the Receive
FIFO interface control signals.
During reads from the FIFO, the SPDTAVL output will
remain high until the high going edge of the read that
causes one of the following conditions to occur:
1. The read that empties the FIFO completely.
2. The read that reads a packets status double word
from the FIFO.
In the case of SPDTAVL being driven low upon the high
going edge of the read that meets one of the above
conditions, the SPDTAVL output will remain low for a
period of 8 RXRD_TXWR clock cycles. For the time that
SPDTAVL remains low, further reads are blocked within
the chip even if external reads continue. This allows
overreading the receive FIFO by a few cycles without,
internal to the chip, reading an empty FIFO or reading new
packet data before the present packet is processed. It is up
to the processor doing the FIFO reads to determine on
which read cycle the SPDTAVL went low and thereby
which read cycles are over reads containing invalid data.
Using the 80C300 in 8 Bit or 16 Bit Mode
On the receive side, two different modes are possible.
On burst reads (Rxrden being asserted for multiple clock
cycles), if the first read is not a double word read, the
second read will always increment the FIFO pointer irrespective of whether all the byte enables are enabled or not.
In this mode, 16 bit reads are possible by muxing the LSB
and the MSB of the data bus. 8 bit reads are not possible.
On single reads (Rxrden being asserted for only one clock
cycle), the FIFO pointer will get incremented only on a
double word read. In this mode, the different bytes of the
data bus can be muxed to perform multiple 8 bit or 16 bit
reads. But, all the reads of the bytes belonging to one row
should be terminated with a double word read to increment
the FIFO pointer.
3.5.4 Special Conditions on the RXRD_TXWR input
This input is required to be tied to a continuous clock signal
whose maximum clock frequency can be 33Mhz. The
number of read or write cycles occurring to the chip is
controlled through the TXWREN and RXRDEN inputs. All
transitions of the TXRDY, RXRDY, RXTXEOF, SPDTAVL,
RXDC, RXTXDATA[31:0], T16COLL, RXBXT12 and
TXRET outputs are synchronized internally to the
RXRD_TXWR clock and are clocked to the output drivers
on the highgoing edge of the clock.
When the chip is being read, the RXRDY output will remain
high until the high going edge of the read that results in one
of the following conditions:
1. The FIFO no longer has enough data to meet the
threshold setting.
2. A packets status double word with its associated
HIGH end of frame value is read out.

3.6 REGISTER INTERFACE
Writing of Command, Configuration, and Station Address
registers, and reading of status registers and management counters is controlled by the BUSSIZE, BE[1:0],
ENREGIO, RD, WR, and A[5:0] pins. The ENREGIO
signal is used as general register interface enable and
must be active low before any register operations can
occur. Setting the BUSSIZE control pin to HIGH or LOW
sets the register interface to 16-bit mode or 8-bit mode
respectively. The BE[1:0] pins are used to allow byte wide
register accesses when the chip is in 16-bit mode. To
facilitate programming when in 16-bit mode, 8-bit registers
within the chip are organized in pairs so that two 8-bit
registers can be accessed with a single 16-bit read or write
or by using BE[1:0] pins to access them singly. In 16-bit
mode the BE[1:0] pins control whether registers are accessed a byte at a time or a 16-bit word at a time and which
portion of the CDST[15:0] is used. In 8-bit mode the
BE[1:0] pins are not used and all accesses drive only the
CDST[7:0] portion of the CDST data bus. The table below
shows the states of the BUSSIZE and BE[1:0] pins, which
portion of a two 8-bit register pair or single 16-bit register
is accessed, and which part of the CDST[15:0] data bus is
used.

Reading the status registers may also occur at any time
during transmission or reception.
Status Registers and all management counters are read
only registers. The Rx and Tx Command Registers are
write only and all other registers are writable and readable.
Access to these registers is via the CPU interface: Control
signals ENREGIO, RD, WR , and the Command/Status
Data Bus CdSt [15:0].
3.6.2 Station Address Register
The Station Address Register is 6 bytes in length. The
contents may be written in any order, with bit “0” of byte “0”
corresponding to the first bit received in the data stream,
and indicating whether the address is physical or logical.
Bit 7 of station address byte 5 is compared to the last bit of
the received destination address. The Station Address
should be programmed prior to enabling the receiver.
3.6.3 Transmit Command Register
The transmit command register is an 8 bit write only
register. Bits 0 through 3 of the Transmit Command
Register function as interrupt mask bits, which provide for
control of the conditions allowed to generate transmit
interrupts. Each of the four bits may be individually set or
cleared. When set, the occurrence of the associated
condition will cause an interrupt to be generated. The four
specific conditions for which interrupts may be generated
are:

1. A transmit FIFO underflow occurred while

2. A collision occurred while transmitting the packet.
3. A transmit error condition occurred i.e,
(Carrier sense never went active during
transmission or went from an active to inactive state
during transmission, 16 collisions occurred for a
transmit packet, or a late transmit collision
occurred.
Addressing of registers within the chip is controlled directly
through the A[5:0] address pins. Initiation of a register read
is controlled by the RD pin and initiation of a register write
is controlled by the WR pin. Even though the registers can
be accessed at any time, it is recommended that writing to
the command register, be done only during interframe
gaps.
4. The packet was transmitted successfully.
Interrupts are cleared by following the procedure given in
the section entitled "Clearing Interrupts".
With the exception of the two Match Mode bits in the
Receive Command Register, all bits in both command
registers are interrupt enable bits. Changing the interrupt
enable bits during frame transmission does not affect the
frame integrity. Asynchronous error events, however,
e.g., overflow, underflow, etc., may cause chip operation
to vary, if their corresponding enable bits are being altered
at the same time.
Bit 4 of the transmit command register is used to set the
chip into MII mode. When this bit is written high the chip will
use the MII interface for transmit and receive data.
Bits 5 and 6 are unused.
Bit 7 is used for testing purposes and should not be written
high under normal circumstances

example that if bit 1 of the receive command register is
written high, packets with CRC errors will be received and
no receive discard will be asserted. By using a combination of the general receive interrupt disable bit 7 in configuration register #1 and bits 0 through 3 of the receive
command register, a port can be programmed to accept
packets with error conditions without the generation of an
interrupt.

3.6.4 Receive Command Register
The Receive Command Register has two primary functions, it specifies the Address Match Mode, and it specifies
which types of receive frames will be received and if an
associated interrupt will be produced. To set interrupt
conditions, the Receive Command Register uses bits 5
through 0 in conjunction with bit #7 of configuration register
#1.
Interrupt on Short Frame
Interrupt on 12 Bytes Received
Interrupt on Good Frames
Match Mode 0
Match Mode 1
Bits 0-5 specify Interrupt and Frame-of-Interest when set.
Bit 7 of configuration register #1 is a general receive
interrupt disable. Setting this bit HIGH disables all receive
interrupt conditions even if one of the bits 1 through 6 in the
receive command register is set HIGH. This allows enabling reception of receive packets with errors without an
interrupt being produced. With the general receive interrupt bit LOW, a receive interrupt can be produced on one
or more of the following conditions by setting its associated
interrupt enable bit in the receive command register:
1. Interrupt on good frames
(Rx Command Bit 5)
2. Interrupt on receiving the
12 bytes of data for a

(Rx Command Bit 4)
3. Interrupt on reception of

tempt, whether successful or not, one of the status registers is written with the transmit status for that packet and
bit 7 of that register is set to a 0 until both registers are full.
When both registers are full, no new transmit status can be
written until one of the registers is read. To an external
CPU, both transmit status registers appear as a single
register. If the CPU reads a LOW value for bit 7 of the
transmit status register, this indicates that either one or
both of the internal transmit registers contains new status.
A delay time after the highgoing edge of the read operation
that reads new transmit status, one of the internal transmit
status registers will be cleared and made available for new
transmit status. Following are the types of transmit status
given through status register:
3.6.6 Receive Status Register
Within the receive section, there is a receive status register
that is written with the status of each receive packet
whether it is discarded or not. Once the receive status
register is written, bit 7 of the register is set to a 0 and the
register is write protected from being overwritten with new
status until it is read. Reading the receive status register
clears the register and enables it to be written with new
status. The following packet status is reported in the
receive status register:
Bit 7 - Old/New status
Bit 6 - 12 bytes of a frame received.
Bit 5 - Frame received without errors.
Bit 4 - Oversized frame received.
Bit 3 - Short frame error.
Bit 2 - Frame with dribble bits or nibbles.
Bit 1 - Frame with CRC error.
Bit 0 - Receive FIFO overflow error.
Bit 0 - Transmit FIFO Underflow Occurred.
Bit 1 - Collision during transmission occurred.
Bit 2 - 16 collisions occurred while attempting to
transmit a packet.
Bit 3 - Packet transmitted successfully.
Receive packet status is also included as part of the final
double word of receive data for a packet that is not
discarded. The final double word of a packet as read from
the receive FIFO contains the status and the byte count for
that packet with the status appearing as the least significant word of the double word and the byte count appearing
in the two most significant bytes of the double word. The
status read through the FIFO has the same bit values as
the receive status register except for the following:
Bit 4 - Carrier Sense error during transmission
attempt.
Bit 5 - Transmit Deferred Due to Carrier Sense
Bit 6 - A Late Transmit Collision Occurred.
Bit 7 - Old/New Status.
The chip can be programmed so that if both transmit
registers are full, no new transmissions will occur until at
least one of the registers is cleared by reading it. To
program this feature, bit #1 of configuration register #2
needs to be written to a 1 value. Also, the chip can be
programmed so that no transmit status is loaded if the
Transmission is successful. This feature is programmed
by setting bit #0 of configuration register #2 to a 1 value.
Bit 7: RXABORT During Reception
Bit 8: Read Error Condition
Bit 7 is an indication that the RXABORT pin was pulsed
HIGH while CSN was HIGH for the packet. Bit 8 Indicates
that some type of error has occurred in the receive FIFO
control circuitry with a result that the number of double
words written to the FIFO as indicated by the byte count
portion of the status double word does not equal the
number of double words read from the FIFO for the packet.
This type of error can only be caused by some type of noise
glitch or other unusual occurrence within the receive
section. Any packet read from the FIFO with Bit 8 of the
status set HIGH should be considered to have bad data.
This condition should never occur in a properly designed
application. If status is ever read with Bit 8 being HIGH, the
receive section will automatically reset itself to provide a
clean starting point for further packet reception.

received without discard even if RXABORT goes high
during reception.
SQE Status Bit
After transmitting a frame if the chip does not receive a
collision with in a 4.0 µs period this bit will be set. Once set,
this will stay set until cleared. This can be read and cleared
as explained in the register section. The SQE test is only
available in 10 Mbit/sec Serial Ethernet Mode.
Disable Further Transmission Upon Full Tx Status
Register Mode
If bit #1 of configuration register #2 is set, then whenever
both Tx status registers have been filled, no new transmissions will occur until one of the TX status registers is
cleared, even if the Transmit FIFO has transmit data.
Successful Packet Transmission Complete Feature
This feature is programmable by setting bit 7 of configuration register #2 to a “1” value. If this bit is set then,
independent of the FIFO threshold setting, the TXRDY pin
will go LOW once the final double word of data for a
transmit packet is written to the transmit FIFO. Once
TXRDY has been driven LOW due to this condition,
TXRDY will remain LOW until the packet has completed
transmission without error or until a transmission exception condition causing the TXRET pin to go HIGH is
cleared. This allows the user to determine when a packet
has completed successful transmission by detecting when
TXRDY goes HIGH after the final double word of the
packet has been written. After TXRDY goes LOW due to
a double word write with the RXTXEOF pin HIGH, further
writes to the transmit FIFO are allowed as long as the
SPDTAVL pin indicates there is still space available within
the transmit FIFO.
EOF Bit Setting Control
If bit #2 of configuration 2 is set, the EOF bit is set both at
the end of the last double word of data and the status
respectively. If this bit is not set, then the EOF bit is set only
at the end of the status double word.
Multicast Mode
The chip has a 64 bit multicast address filter register which
can be accessed as shown in the Internal Channel
Register Addressing Table (page 15). When it is programmed to receive multicast frames (match mode 3),
after computing the CRC on the address field of the
receiving frame (first 6 bytes), it will index to the multicast
address filter register depending on bits 0 to 5 of the CRC.
If the corresponding bit is a ‘1’ it will receive the frame,
otherwise it will discard the frame.

Pack Only Two Valid Bytes in First Receive Double
Word
This feature is programmable by setting bit 6 of configuration register #2 to a “1” value. If this bit is set then the first
double word of data written to the receive FIFO for a
receive packet will have only two valid bytes. When this
first double word is read out of the receive FIFO , which two
bytes are valid depends upon whether the BUSMODE pin
is tied HIGH or LOW. For the first double word read, only
RXTXDATA[15:0] are valid if Busmode is HIGH, otherwise
only RXTXDATA[31:16] are valid. All subsequent double
words of data read from the receive FIFO will contain 4
valid bytes except for the last double word which may not
have all 4 bytes valid.
Transmit Packet Autopad Mode
This feature automatically pads packets to be transmitted
with less than 60 bytes of data out to a minimum IEEE
802.3 standard packet length of 60 bytes excluding FCS.
Padding is done with bytes of 00 hex in 10 Mbit/sec Serial
Mode and 55 hex in MII mode.
Transmit No Preamble Mode
This mode prevents the transmitter from adding a preamble pattern at the beginning of data to be transmitted.
Disable Loopback Mode
Description on the Loopback mode (Bit #3 of Config 1)
The following description assumes that a transceiver is
connected to the MAC.

Group Address Mode
In this mode, the last 4 bits of the serial receive data stream
for the destination address are masked out in address
comparison. This means that when the destination address is compared against the value programmed in the
station address register, the packet will not be rejected due
to incorrect address even if its last 4 bits did not match.
In this mode, the transmit
data looped back from the
transceiver is ignored by
the controller. The data
does not get written into
the receive FIFO and the
Rxrdy does not reflect the
incoming data.
In this mode, the
transceiver (In Full Duplex
mode), will not loopback
the transmitted data.
However, since data
reception is possible during
transmission, bit 3 should
be written with ‘0’ so that
the data gets written to the
Receive FIFO.
In normal half duplex
operation, the PHY loops
back the transmitted data
back to the MAC. In
other words, the PHY
always loops back the
transmitted data in half
duplex mode. As far
as the controller is
concerned, it knows that
the data coming back is it’s
own transmitted packet
and since bit 3 is not set,
the transmitted packet gets
written into the receive
FIFO.
Note: There is no internal loopback within the MAC.
Loopback is dependent on a PHY connected to the MAC.

Functional Description
80C300
New Full Duplex Feature: In revisions A, & B, it is
necessary to reset bit 3 of Configuration 1 whenever Full
Duplex mode is selected. The new Full Duplex feature
makes the setting of bit 3 automatic based on the mode
selected. This new feature is present only in revisions C
and onwards.
Transmit No CRC Mode
This mode prevents the transmitter from appending transmit data with an FCS.
Full Duplex Mode
In this mode, the transmitter will ignore carrier sense and
will not defer to it if it is ready to transmit a packet.
3.6.8 FIFO Threshold Register
This register allows programming of the threshold of
Space Available and/or Data Available double word
counts that cause assertion of the TxRDY and/or RxRDY
signals respectively. Bits 4 through 7, when written with a
binary value, indicates the minimum number of double
words necessary in the receive FIFO before RxRDY is
asserted. Similarly, bits 0 through 3, when written with a
binary value, indicate the minimum number of double word
wide spaces necessary in the transmit FIFO for TxRDY to
be asserted. Table 3.6.8.1 shows the number of double
words of space/data that are required to cause the
TXRDY/RXRDY signal to go high for each threshold
setting.
The software bit setting and the hardware setting (pin
#108) have an OR relationship. This means that either the
hardware or software setting will enable Full Duplex.
Receive CRC Mode
In this mode, the receiver loads the 4 bytes of FCS into the
receive FIFO along with the data allowing the FCS value
to be read out.
Disable Receive Interrupts
With this bit set, the receiver is disabled from producing
receive interrupts.

3.6.9 Defer Register Calculations for the 80C300
Defer Time Definitions
In the standard Half Duplex Mode, Defer time is defined as
the time from the falling edge of carrier sense to the rising
edge of TXEN. In full duplex mode, the defer time is
measured as the time from the falling edge of TXEN to the
next rising edge of TXEN. The binary value programmed
into the defer count register is used to determine how many
byte times the defer time will be set to. The algorithms
below illustrate how the defer time is calculated.
Bit 0 = ‘1’ Enables

The defer time is split into two periods. The first period is
the first 2/3 and the second period is the second 1/3 of the
defer time. The defer time calculated by the following
algorithms are for the first 2/3 of the defer period only. For
further details, please refer to the section 3.2.2.

To find out the value that needs to be programmed into the
defer register for a defer time of 960 ns, the following steps
need to be taken
To find out the value that needs to be programmed
into the defer register for a defer time of 9600 ns, the
following steps need to be taken
Assume Delay = 340 ns
Desired Defer Time = 960 ns = 12 byte times
Note: The desired defer time should be a multiple
of 80
Assume Delay = 3400 ns
Desired Defer Time = 9600 ns = 12 byte times
The desired byte times should be a multiple of 800

Step 1: Calculation of the Actual Defer Time
Let’s assume a Defer Register Setting Value of 10
Let’s assume a Defer Register Setting Value of 21
Defer Time = Int{ {Int (Delay / 40) + 5 + DefRegSet}
/2} + 2
Defer Time = Int { { Int (Delay / 100) + 17 + DefRegSet}

= Int { { Int ( 8.5 ) + 5 + 10 }/2} + 2
= Int { { Int (34) + 17 + 21}/8} + 2
= Int { 11.5 } + 2
= Int {9} + 2
= 11 + 2 = 13 byte times
= 9 + 2 = 11 byte times

Register Setting
Step 2: Calculation of the Actual Defer Register
Setting
Since we know that the value derived from the
previous step is 1 byte time greater than what
is desired we will decrement the assumed
defer register setting by 3 and do the
calculations again.
Since we know that the value derived from the
previous step is 1 byte time lower than what is
desired we will increment the assumed defer
register setting by 8 and do the calculations again.
Let’s assume a Defer Register Setting Value of 29
Let’s assume a Defer Register Setting Value of 7
Defer Time = Int {{Int (Delay / 100)+17+DefRegSet}
/8} + 2
Defer Time = Int { {Int(Delay/40) + 5 + DefRegSet}
/2} + 2
= Int { { Int (34) + 17 + 29 } /8} + 2
= Int { { Int( 8.5 ) + 5 + 7 } /2 } + 2
= Int { 10 } + 2
= Int { 10 } + 2
= 10 + 2 = 12 byte times
= 12 byte times
Please note that you might have to do this process
several times before you can get the actual defer
register setting for a desired defer time based on your
delays.

3.7 MANAGEMENT INTERFACE OF MII
Using the 80C300's MII Management Interface to Perform Register Operations to the Ethernet Physical
Signaling Device (PHY)
Defer Time = Int {{Int (Delay/100)+17+DefRegSet}/8}+2
Defer Time = The transmit defer time in byte times
The MII specification provides for a serial management
interface to access registers within the PHY. This interface
follows a specific serial data signaling protocol that is
described in the IEEE approved MII specification. The
management interface portion of the MII requires two
signals MDC and MDIO. MDC is used as the serial data
clock and MDIO is used for the serial data. All register

accesses to the PHY take place over these two signal
lines. According to the MII specification two 5-bit addresses are required for uniquely addressing a register
within a PHY. In the case of multiple PHY's, both a 5-bit
physical address for the PHY and a 5-bit register address
for a register within the PHY are used to perform reads and
writes to registers within a PHY.
3.8 COUNTERS (Note: Please check the latest
Revision Comparison MD400168 for details regarding
feature updates on counters)
CRC Error Counter
This is a 16 bit read only counter that counts the number
of frames received or discarded with CRC errors but no
framing errors. Upon reaching its maximum count value of
FFFF hex, this counter will stop counting. To read this
counter in 8-bit mode, the high byte of the counter must be
read first followed by reading the low byte. Upon reading
of the high byte, the count value of the low byte is frozen
to prevent the low byte count value from rolling over before
it is read. Normally, once the low byte has been read the
counter is reset to zero. Should the 80C300 attempt to
increment the counter while it is frozen, then reading the
low byte of the counter causes it to be loaded with 0001 hex
thereby preventing the counter from missing a count. In
16-bit mode the counter is frozen during the read and reset
or preset to 0001 hex upon completion of the read.
To simplify the task of using the management interface
portion of the MII for register operations to or from a PHY,
the 80C300 provides two special registers, the MII Management Interface Data Register and the MII Management
Interface Command/Status Register. These registers can
be accessed by an external CPU in the same fashion as
any of the 80C300's other registers. A state machine within
the 80C300 uses writes and reads to the registers to
initiate writes and reads over the MDC and MDIO lines
following the management interface protocol as specified
in the MII specification. It also performs serial to parallel or
parallel to serial conversion of I/O data between the MDIO
pin and the 16 bit MII Management Interface Data
Register.
Runt Frame Counter
This is a 16 bit read only counter that counts the number
of frames received or discarded where CSN or RX_DV
was active for greater than the "ShortEventMaxTime" (7482 bit times), but less than the minimum valid frame time
(64 bytes). Upon reaching its maximum count value of
FFFF hex, this counter will stop counting. To read this
counter in 8-bit mode, the high byte of the counter must be
read first followed by reading the low byte. Upon reading
of the high byte, the count value of the low byte is frozen
to prevent the low byte count value from rolling over before
it is read. Normally, once the low byte has been read the
counter is reset to zero. Should the 80C300 attempt to
increment the counter while it is frozen, then reading the
low byte of the counter causes it to be loaded with 0001 hex
thereby preventing the counter from missing a count. In
16-bit mode the counter is frozen during the read and reset
or preset to 0001 hex upon completion of the read.
To perform a PHY register write using the 80C300, the
register data is first written to the MII Management Interface Data Register. Then to initiate the write operation, bit
13 of the MII Management Interface Command/Status
Register is written HIGH. At the same time bits 0 through
4, bits 8 through 12, bits 5 through 7, and bit 14 of this same
register should be written with the PHY physical address,
PHY register address, the RXRD_TXWR clock multiplier,
and the I/O complete interrupt enable bit respectively. To
determine when a write operation is complete on the MII
side of the 80C300, bit 15 of the MII Command/Status
Register can be polled until it is read HIGH.
To initiate a PHY register read using the 80C300, bit 13 of
the MII Management Interface Command/Status Register
is written LOW. At the same time the remaining bits of the
MII Management Interface Command/Status Register
should be written similar to the description above for
initiating a PHY register write operation. To determine
when a read has been completed on the MII side of the
80C300 and when valid data is available in the MII Management Interface Data Register, bit 15 of the MII Command/Status Register can be polled until it is read HIGH.
Short Receive Event Counter
This is a 16 bit read only counter that counts the number
of frames received or discarded with CSN or RX_DV
activity less than the "ShortEventMaxTime" (74-82 bit
times). Upon reaching its maximum count value of FFFF
hex, this counter will stop counting. To read this counter in
8-bit mode, the high byte of the counter must be read first
followed by reading the low byte. Upon reading of the high
byte, the count value of the low byte is frozen to prevent the
low byte count value from rolling over before it is read.
Normally, once the low byte has been read the counter is
reset to zero. Should the 80C300 attempt to increment the
counter while it is frozen, then reading the low byte of the
counter causes it to be loaded with 0001 hex thereby
preventing the counter from missing a count. In 16-bit
mode the counter is frozen during the read and reset or
preset to 0001 hex upon completion of the read.
Setting bit 14 of the MII Management Interface Command/
Status Register enables an interrupt to be produced upon
completion of either a read or a write operation.
Clearing of an interrupt due to completion of a management interface I/O operation requires reading or writing bit
15 - 8 of the Command/Status Register.
The MDC becomes active only when there is an management interface I/O operation.

Alignment Error Counter
This is a 16 bit read only counter that counts the number
of frames received or discarded with a framing error and a
CRC error both. Upon reaching its maximum count value
of FFFF hex, this counter will stop counting. To read this
counter in 8-bit mode, the high byte of the counter must be
read first followed by reading the low byte. Upon reading
of the high byte, the count value of the low byte is frozen
to prevent the low byte count value from rolling over before
it is read. Normally, once the low byte has been read the
counter is reset to zero. Should the 80C300 attempt to
increment the counter while it is frozen, then reading the
low byte of the counter causes it to be loaded with 0001 hex
thereby preventing the counter from missing a count. In
16-bit mode the counter is frozen during the read and reset
or preset to 0001 hex upon completion of the read.
count value of FF hex, this counter will stop counting.
During reading of this counter the count value will be frozen
to prevent incrementing while being read. Should the
80C300 attempt to increment the counter while it is frozen,
then the counter will be loaded with 01 hex upon completion of the read. Otherwise, completing the read will reset
the counter to 00 hex. If the 80C300 is in 16-bit mode and
if a byte read is not used, reading this counter will also end
up reading the Receive Oversize Frame counter. By using
the BE[1:0] byte enables in 16-bit mode, this counter can
be read separately from the Receive Oversize Frame
counter if so desired.
Receive Oversize Frame Counter
This is a 8-bit counter that counts the number of receive
frames with greater than the 1518 byte maximum frame
size of data. Upon reaching its maximum count value of FF
hex, this counter will stop counting. During reading of this
counter the count value will be frozen to prevent incrementing while being read. Should the 80C300 attempt to
increment the counter while it is frozen, then the counter
will be loaded with 01 hex upon completion of the read.
Otherwise, completing the read will reset the counter to 00
hex. If the 80C300 is in 16-bit mode and if a byte read is
not used, reading this counter will also end up reading the
Very Long Event counter. By using the BE[1:0] byte
enables in 16-bit mode, this counter can be read separately from the Very Long Event counter if so desired.
Transmit Collision Counter
This is a 16 bit read only counter. Upon reaching its
maximum count value of FFFF hex, this counter will stop
counting. To read this counter in 8-bit mode, the high byte
of the counter must be read first followed by reading the
low byte. Upon reading of the high byte, the count value of
the low byte is frozen to prevent the low byte count value
from rolling over before it is read. Normally, once the low
byte has been read the counter is reset to zero. Should the
80C300 attempt to increment the counter while it is frozen,
then reading the low byte of the counter causes it to be
loaded with 0001 hex thereby preventing the counter from
missing a count. In 16-bit mode the counter is frozen
during the read and reset or preset to 0001 hex upon
completion of the read.
Transmit Excessive Defer Counter
This is a 8-bit counter that counts the number of times the
transmitter had to defer for greater than the MaxDeferTime, (3036 byte times). Upon reaching its maximum
count value of FF hex, this counter will stop counting.
During reading of this counter the count value will be frozen
to prevent incrementing while being read. Should the
80C300 attempt to increment the counter while it is frozen,
then the counter will be loaded with 01 hex upon completion of the read. Otherwise, completing the read will reset
the counter to 00 hex. If the 80C300 is in 16-bit mode and
if a byte read is not used, reading this counter will also end
up reading the Transmit Late Collision counter. By using
the BE[1:0] byte enables in 16-bit mode, this counter can
be read separately from the Transmit Late Collision
counter if so desired.
Receive Collision Counter
This is a 16 bit read only counter that counts the number
of collisions other than transmit collisions that occur.
Collisions due to the SQET test are not counted. Upon
reaching its maximum count value of FFFF hex, this
counter will stop counting. To read this counter in 8-bit
mode, the high byte of the counter must be read first
followed by reading the low byte. Upon reading of the high
byte, the count value of the low byte is frozen to prevent the
low byte count value from rolling over before it is read.
Normally, once the low byte has been read the counter is
reset to zero. Should the 80C300 attempt to increment the
counter while it is frozen, then reading the low byte of the
counter causes it to be loaded with 0001 hex thereby
preventing the counter from missing a count. In 16-bit
mode the counter is frozen during the read and reset or
preset to 0001 hex upon completion of the read.
Transmit Late Collision Counter
This is a 8-bit counter that counts the number of collisions
that occur greater than 512 bit times after a transmission
has started, i.e. TXEN goes HIGH. Upon reaching its
maximum count value of FF hex, this counter will stop
counting. During reading of this counter the count value
will be frozen to prevent incrementing while being read.
Should the 80C300 attempt to increment the counter while
it is frozen, then the counter will be loaded with 01 hex upon
completion of the read. Otherwise, completing the read will

reset the counter to 00 hex. If the 80C300 is in 16-bit mode
and if a byte read is not used, reading this counter will also
end up reading the Transmit Excessive Defer counter. By
using the BE[1:0] byte enables in 16-bit mode, this counter
can be read separately from the Transmit Excessive Defer
counter if so desired.
the least significant byte last. Upon reading of the high
byte, the count value of the counter is frozen to prevent the
low byte count value from rolling over before it is read.
Normally once, the low byte has been read the counter is
reset to zero. Should the 80C300 attempt to increment the
counter while it is frozen, then reading the least significant
byte of the counter causes it to be loaded with the most
recent packets byte count. In 16-Bit mode the counter is
reset upon reading the least significant word.
RXERR Error Counter
This is a 8-bit counter that counts the number of times
RXERR is asserted by the Ethernet PHY, (the physical
signaling portion of the Ethernet). Upon reaching its maximum count value of FF hex, this counter will stop counting.
During reading of this counter the count value will be frozen
to prevent incrementing while being read. Should the
80C300 attempt to increment the counter while it is frozen,
then the counter will be loaded with 01 hex upon completion of the read . Otherwise, completing the read will reset
the counter to 00 hex. If the 80C300 is in 16-bit mode and
if a bye read is not used, reading this counter will also end
up reading the Transmit Excessive Collision Counter.
RXERR is only used by 100 MBit/sec Ethernet and is an
indication of a symbol coding error for receive data.
Rx Overflow Error Counter
This is an 8-bit counter that counts the number of times the
receive FIFO overflowed for packets being received.
Upon reaching its maximum count value of FF hex, this
counter will stop counting. During reading of this counter
the count value will be frozen to prevent incrementing
while being read. Should the 80C300 attempt to increment
the counter while it is frozen, then the counter will be
loaded with 01 hex upon completion of the read. Otherwise, completing the read will reset the counter to 00 hex.
If the 80C300 is in 16-bit mode and if a byte read is not
used, reading this counter will also end up reading the
Transmit Attempt Register.
MII Management Interface Data Register
This 16-bit register is used to read or write data from or to
registers within the Ethernet PHY, (the chip used to implement the physical signaling portion of the Ethernet). For
PHY register writes, the 80C300 takes data from this
register and serializes it for transmission over MDIO data
line. For PHY register reads, the 80C300 takes serial data
off the MDIO, converts it parallel, and then writes it to this
register.
Transmit Attempt Register
This register is written with the value of the transmit
attempt count at the completion of each transmit attempt.
The transmit attempt count tracks how many retransmission attempts are made due to transmit collisions occurring. The best way to use this register is to program the
80C300 to produce an interrupt whenever a transmission
is successfully completed. Reading this register upon the
completion of a successful transmission will tell the user
how many transmission attempts were necessary for the
successful transmission of the packet. If the 80C300 is in
16-bit mode and a byte read is not used, reading this
register will also end up reading the Rx Overflow Error
Counter.
Transmit Excessive Collision Counter
This is a 8-Bit counter that counts the number of times a
packet collided 16 times without successful transmission.
Upon reaching its maximum count value of FF hex, this
counter will stop counting. During reading of this counter
the count value will be frozen to prevent incrementing
while being read. Should the 80C300 attempt to increment
the counter while it is frozen, then the counter will be
loaded with 01 hex upon completion of the read. Otherwise , completing the read will reset the counter to 00 hex.
If the 80C300 is in 16-bit mode and if a byte read is not
used, reading this counter will also end up reading the
RXERR Error Counter. By using the BE[1:0] byte enables
in 16-Bit mode, this counter can be read separately from
the RXERR counter if so desired.
Transmit Deferred Counter
This 16-bit counter counts the number of times the transmitter had transmit data available and was ready to transmit but had to defer transmission due to carrier sense
going HIGH. Upon reaching its maximum count value of
FFFF hex, this counter will stop counting. To read this
counter in 8-bit mode, the high byte of the counter must be
read first followed by reading the low byte. Upon reading
of the high byte, the count value of the low byte is frozen
to prevent the low byte count value from rolling over before
it is read. Normally, once the low byte has been read the
counter is reset to zero. Should the 80C300 attempt to
increment the counter while it is frozen, then reading the
low byte of the counter causes it to be loaded with 0001 hex
thereby preventing the counter from missing a count. In
16-bit mode the counter is frozen during the read and reset

This 32-Bit counter keeps a running total of the number of
bytes received for good frames. Only those receive
frames meeting the IEEE 802.3 requirements for a good
frame have their bytes counted. Upon reaching its maximum count value of FFFFFFFF hex, this counter rolls over
to 00000000 hex. To read this counter in 8-Bit mode, the
most significant byte of the counter must be read first and

Total Rx Multicast Frames
This 16-bit counter counts the number of frames received
with multicast addresses. Only those receive frames
meeting the IEEE 802.3 requirements for a good frame are
counted. Upon reaching its maximum count value of FFFF
hex, this counter will stop counting. To read this counter
in 8-bit mode, the high byte of the counter must be read first
followed by reading the low byte. Upon reading of the high
byte, count value of the counter is frozen to prevent the low
byte count value from rolling over before it is read. Normally the counter will be reset upon reading the low byte of
the counter. Should the 80C300 attempt to update the
counter while it is frozen, then reading the low byte of the
counter causes the counter to be loaded with a value of
0001 hex. In 16-bit mode the counter is either reset or
preloaded to 0001 hex upon being read once.
To read this counter in 8-bit mode, the most significant byte
of the counter must be read first and the least significant
byte last. Upon reading the high byte, the count value of
the counter is frozen to prevent the low byte count value
from rolling over before it is read. Normally, once the low
byte is read, the counter is reset to zero. Should the
80C300 attempt to update the counter while it is frozen,
then reading the least significant byte of the counter
causes it to be loaded with the most recent packets byte
count. In 16-bit mode the counter is reset or preloaded
upon reading the least significant word.
Total TX Multicast Frames
This 16-bit counter counts the number of multicast frames
transmitted successfully, i.e. the TXRET pin does not
assert. Upon reaching its maximum count value of FFFF
hex, this counter will stop counting. To read this counter
in 8-bit mode, the high byte of the counter must be read first
followed by reading the low byte. Upon reading of the high
byte, the count value of the counter is frozen to prevent the
low byte count value from rolling over before it is read.
Normally the counter will be reset upon reading the low
byte of the counter. Should the 80C300 attempt to update
the counter while it is frozen, then reading the low byte of
the counter causes the counter to be loaded with a value
of 0001 hex. In 16-bit mode the counter is either reset or
preloaded to 0001 hex upon being read once.
Total RX Broadcast Frames
This 16-bit counter counts the number of frames received
with broadcast addresses. Only those receive frames
meeting the IEEE 802.3 requirements for a good frame are
counted. Upon reaching its maximum count value of FFFF
hex, this counter will stop counting. To read this counter in
8-bit mode, the high byte of the counter must be read first
followed by reading the low byte. Upon reading of the high
byte, the count value of the counter is frozen to prevent the
low byte count value from rolling over before it is read.
Normally the counter will be reset upon reading the low

Total Rx Unicast Frames
This 16-bit counter counts the number of frames received
with Unicast addresses. Only those receive frames meeting the IEEE 802.3 requirements for a good frame are
counted. Upon reaching its maximum count value of FFFF
hex, this counter will stop counting. To read this counter
in 8-bit mode, the high byte of the counter must be read first
followed by reading the low byte. Upon reading of the high

The MDC cycle time may be set by programming the clock
multiplier bits of the register. The MDC cycle time can be
determined from the following formula assuming that
MULTIPLIER represents the decimal equivalent of the
binary value programmed for bits 7 thru 5.
MII Management Interface Command/Status
Register
This 16-bit register is used to initiate register reads or
writes to a PHY connected to the 80C300. It also has a
read only status indicator bit that indicates when a register
operation has been completed and an interrupt enable bit
to allow interrupts to be produced when the register
operation is completed. The bit definitions for this register
are given below:
15 14 13 12 11 10 9

MDC (cycle time) = RXRD_TXWR (cycle time) x 2 x
(MULTIPLIER + 1)
The value of bits 7 thru 5 after reset is 111 binary or 7
decimal.

the 7th external double word write (The 7th Clock Edge that latches in the active low TXWREN) actually happens
on the 8th clock cycle internally.

Page 11, Section 3.2.2 Transmission Initiation in Full Duplex and CSMA/CD Networks
- Copy change paragraph 2: The transmit threshold value..... has been changed to, The transmit threshold value
is controlled by programming bits 7 through 4 of the Configuration Register #3. The default value is 0 (zero), which
enables the MAC to begin packet transmission with as little as one double word in the FIFO. The threshold,
measured in double words, is equal to the number programmed into Transmit Control Register times 2. Thus,
if the upper four bits of the register contain the value 3hex, then the transmission is deferred until there are at
least 6 double words of data in the FIFO.
