GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The LAN9116 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 LAN9116 has been architected to
provide the best price-performance ratio for any 32-bit application with medium-high performance requirements. The
LAN9116 is fully IEEE 802.3 10BASE-T and 802.3u 100BASE-TX compliant.
The LAN9116 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 and 32-bit microprocessors and microcontrollers. The LAN9116 includes large transmit and receive data FIFOs to accommodate high
latency applications. In addition, the LAN9116 memory buffer architecture allows the most efficient use of memory
resources by optimizing packet granularity.
Applications
The LAN9116 is well suited for medium-high-performance embedded applications, including:
•
•
•
•
•
•
Medium-range cable, satellite and IP set-top boxes
Digital video recorders
DVD Recorders/Players
High-definition televisions
Digital media clients/servers
Home gateways
The LAN9116 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 LAN9116 can automatically generate flow control packets to
the remote node, or assert back-pressure on the remote node by generating network collisions.
The LAN9116 supports numerous power management and wakeup features. The LAN9116 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.

10/100 Ethernet PHY
The LAN9116 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 LAN9116. The MAC CSR's also provides a mechanism for accessing the PHY’s internal registers through
the internal SMI (Serial Management Interface) bus.
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.

LAN9116
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 LAN9116 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 LAN9116. 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 LAN9116. The serial EEPROM is optional and can be programmed with
the LAN9116 MAC address. The LAN9116 can optionally load the MAC address automatically after power-on.
1.8
Power Management Controls
The LAN9116 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 LAN9116. 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 LAN9116 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
LAN9116 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 LAN9116 host bus interface supports 32-bit and 16-bit bus transfers; internally, all data paths are 32-bits wide. The
LAN9116 can be interfaced to either Big-Endian or Little-Endian processors in either 32-bit or 16-bit external bus width
modes of operation.
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 when the LAN9116 is configured with a 16-bit host interface. Additionally, when Big
Endian mode is selected, the data path to the internal controller registers will be reorganized accordingly.

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 PHYl
The transmit and receive data paths are separate within the LAN9116 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 internal MII (Media Independent Interface) port,
internal to the LAN9116. 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 LAN9116 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.

3.2
Flow Control
The LAN9116 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.

When the members of a VLAN are not located on the same physical medium, the VLAN uses a tag to help it determine
how to forward the frame from one member to another. 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".

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.

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 LAN9116 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 75 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.

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 LAN9116 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 LAN9116 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.
DS00002268A-page 18

LAN9116
3.4.2.2
Inverse Filtering
In inverse filtering, the LAN9116 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
LAN9116 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 LAN9116 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 LAN9116 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 82 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 LAN9116 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.

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.

MAGIC PACKET DETECTION
Setting the Magic Packet Enable bit (MPEN) in the “WUCSR—Wake-up Control and Status Register”, places the
LAN9116 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 LAN9116 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 LAN9116 will resume normal receive operation. Please refer to Section 5.4.12, "WUCSR—Wake-up Control and Status Register," on page 82 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.

LAN9116
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

It should be noted that Magic Packet detection can be performed when LAN9116 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
32-bit vs. 16-bit Host Bus Width Operation
The LAN9116 can be configured to communicate with the host bus via either a 32-bit or a 16-bit bus. An external strap
is used to select between the two modes. 32-bit mode is the native environment for the LAN9116 Ethernet controller
and no special requirements exist for communication in this mode. However, when this part is used in the 16-bit mode,
two writes or reads must be performed back to back to properly communicate.
The bus width is set by strapping the EEDIO pin; this setting can be read from bit 2 of the “Hardware Configuration Register”. Please refer to Section 5.3.9, "HW_CFG—Hardware Configuration Register," on page 61 for additional information on this register.
3.6.1
16-BIT 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 LAN9116 disregards the transfer.
3.6.2
16-BIT 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 LAN9116 will reset its read counters and restart a new cycle on the next read. The
Upper 16 data pins (D[31:16]) are not driven by the LAN9116 in 16-bit mode. These pins have internal pull-down’s and
the signals are left in a high-impedance state.
3.7
Big and Little Endian Support
The Microchip LAN9116 supports “Big-” or “Little-Endian” processors in either 16 or 32-bit bus width modes. To support
big-endian processors, the hardware designer must explicitly invert the layout of the byte lanes. In addition, for a 16-bit
interface, the WORD_SWAP—Word Swap Control must be set correctly following Table 3-7, "Byte Lane Mapping".
The host bus interface can be selected via an external strap to translate the data bus into either mode. Please refer to
Table 2-4, “Serial EEPROM Interface Signals,” on page 10, for information on multiplexed signal D32/nD16 for more
information on data bus width selection.
Additionally, please refer to Section 5.3.17, "WORD_SWAP—Word Swap Control," on page 68 for additional information on status indication on Endian modes.

the processor type (Big vs. Little Endian).
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
LAN9116 can optionally load its MAC address from an external serial EEPROM. If a properly configured EEPROM is
detected by LAN9116 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 LAN9116 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 77.
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.
DS00002268A-page 22
 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc.
LAN9116
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 72 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.
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 LAN9116 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.

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 72 for E2P_CMD field settings for each command.
ERASE (Erase Location): If erase/write operations are enabled in the EEPROM, this command will erase the location
selected by the EPC Address field (EPC_ADDR). The EPC_TO bit is set if the EEPROM does not respond within 30ms.

MAC Address Reload
The MAC address can be reloaded from the EEPROM via a host command to the E2P_CMD register. If a value of 0xA5h
is not found in the first address of the EEPROM, the EEPROM is assumed to be un-programmed and MAC Address
Reload operation will fail. The “MAC Address Loaded” bit indicates a successful load of the MAC address. The EPC_LOAD bit is set after a successful reload of the MAC address.

EEPROM Timing
Refer to Section 6.9, "EEPROM Timing," on page 99 for detailed EEPROM timing specifications.
3.10
Power Management
LAN9116 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 29. 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 LAN9116 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 LAN9116 device is driving the PME signal.
When the LAN9116 is in a power saving state (D1 or D2), a write cycle to the BYTE_TEST register will return the
LAN9116 to the D0 state. Table 7-1, “Power Consumption Device Only,” on page 100 and Table 7-2, “Power Consumption Device and System Components,” on page 101, shows the power consumption values for each power state.
Note 3-5
3.10.2.1
When the LAN9116 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 LAN9116 will assert the PME hardware signal upon the detection of the wake-up frame
or magic packet. The LAN9116 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
DS00002268A-page 28
 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc.
LAN9116
(see Section 3.5, "Wake-up Frame Detection," on page 19). 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
LAN9116 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 LAN9116 is ready to resume normal operation. At this time the WUPS field can be
cleared.
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 LAN9116 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, LAN9116 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 LAN9116 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 LAN9116 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 LAN9116 is ready to resume
normal operation. At this time the WUPS field can be cleared.

Power Management Event Indicators
Figure 3-11 is a simplified block diagram of the logic that controls the external PME, and internal pme_interrupt signals.
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 LAN9116 can generate a host interrupt regardless of the state
of the PME_EN bit, or the external PME signal.

DS00002268A-page 29
LAN9116
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.

INTERNAL PHY POWER-DOWN MODES
There are 2 power-down modes for the internal Phy:
3.10.3.1
General Power-Down
This power-down is controlled by register 0, bit 11. 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 83 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 87 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 88. 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.

Note 3-12
After a POR, nRESET or SRST, the LAN9116 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 LAN9116, or if power is removed and reapplied to
the LAN9116. A timer within the LAN9116 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 LAN9116 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 LAN9116 can be configured via its control registers. The nRESET signal is pulled-high
internally by the LAN9116 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 98.
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 LAN9116 from a power-down state, the READY bit in
PMT_CTRL will assert (set High) within 2ms.

LAN9116
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.
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 2s). 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
TX Data Path Operation
Data is queued for transmission by writing it into the TX data FIFO. 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 LAN9116 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 LAN9116 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 LAN9116 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 LAN9116 is operating in a system
that always performs multi-word bursts. In such cases the LAN9116 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 LAN9116 will accept extra data
at the end of the packet and will remove the extra padding before transmitting the packet. The LAN9116 automatically
removes data up to the boundary specified in the Buffer End Alignment field specified in each TX command.
The host can instruct the LAN9116 to issue an interrupt when the buffer has been fully loaded into the TX FIFO contained in the LAN9116 and transmitted. This feature is enabled through the TX command ‘Interrupt on Completion’ field.
DS00002268A-page 32
 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc.
LAN9116
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.

TX BUFFER FORMAT
TX buffers exist in the host’s memory in a given format. 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
LAN9116 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.

Figure 3-13, "TX Buffer Format", shows the TX Buffer as it is written into the LAN9116. 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 3.12.5, "Calculating Actual TX Data FIFO Usage," on page 37
for a detailed explanation on calculating the actual TX data FIFO usage.
3.12.2
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

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.

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.
3.12.3.1
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 LAN9116.
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).
3.12.3.2
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.

3.12.4
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.

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.

3.12.7
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)
3.12.8
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.
3.13
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 LAN9116 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 LAN9116. 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 LAN9116 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 LAN9116 is operating in a system that
always performs multi-DWORD bursts. In such cases the LAN9116 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 LAN9116 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.
3.13.1
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.

3.13.1.1
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 LAN9116 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, RX status FIFO, or the TX status
FIFO until the RX_FFWD bit is cleared. Other resources can be accessed during this time (i.e., any registers and/or the
TX data FIFO). After the fast-forward operation has completed and the RX_FFWD bit has been cleared, a wait time
restriction must be observed before reading the TX or RX status FIFO’s, as specified in Section 6.1.2, "Special Restrictions on Back-to-Back Read Cycles," on page 91. 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.
3.13.1.2
Force Receiver Discard (Receiver Dump)
In addition to the Receive data Fast Forward feature, LAN9116 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
LAN9116 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 3.13.4, "Stopping and Starting the Receiver," on page 45. For more information on the
RX_DUMP bit, please refer to Section 5.3.7, "RX_CFG—Receive Configuration Register," on page 60.
3.13.2
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.

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.

SCRAMBLING
Repeated data patterns (especially the IDLE code-group) can have power spectral densities with large narrow-band
peaks. 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.

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.

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.
DS00002268A-page 48
 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc.
LAN9116
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)
 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc.
DS00002268A-page 49
LAN9116
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).
DS00002268A-page 50
 2005-2016 Microchip Technology Inc.
LAN9116
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 LAN9116 does not support “Next Page" capability.
4.7
Parallel Detection
If the LAN9116 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.

DS00002268A-page 51
LAN9116
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 LAN9116 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.

The LAN9116 10/100 PHY CRS signal operates in two modes: Active and Low. 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.

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 LAN9116 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 LAN9116 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 LAN9116 registers accordingly.
5.2
RX and TX FIFO Ports
The LAN9116 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 (16 WORD locations in 16-bit mode)
from the 00h offset to 1Ch offset. The host may access any of the 8(16) 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 (16 WORD locations in 16-bit mode) from the 20h
offset to 3Ch offset. The host may write to any of the 8(16) locations since they all access the same TX data FIFO location and perform the same function.

Description
• Do not attempt a soft reset unless the internal PHY is fully awake and

state, the PHY must be 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 98 for details on PHY reset timing.
• The LAN9116 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.

In addition to the host-accessible FIFOs, the MAC Interface Layer (MIL) contains an additional 2K bytes of TX, and 128
bytes of RX FIFO buffering. 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 LAN9116, 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.

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

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.

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 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 10s 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 within10s 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

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.

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)

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.

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.

Attribute:
R/W
Default Value:

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 LAN9116 will not transmit pause frames or assert back pressure if the transmitter is disabled.

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.

Host Interface Timing
The LAN9116 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 LAN9116 device. In many cases there is a
required minimum delay between writing to the LAN9116, 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 LAN9116 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 (165ns). 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.

SPECIAL RESTRICTIONS ON BACK-TO-BACK READ CYCLES
There are also restrictions on specific back-to-back read operations. These restrictions concern reading specific registers after reading resources that have side effects. In many cases there is a delay between reading the LAN9116, 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 (165ns). 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.

PIO Reads
PIO reads can be used to access CSRs or RX Data and RX/TX status FIFOs. 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.
PIO reads are supported for both 16- and 32-bit access. Timing for 16-bit and 32-bit PIO Read cycles is identical with
the exception that D[31:16] are not driven during a 16-bit read.
Note:
Some registers have restrictions on the timing of back-to-back, write-read and read-read cycles.

Clock Circuit
The LAN9116 can accept either a 25MHz crystal (preferred) or a 25 MHz clock oscillator (50 PPM) input. The LAN9116
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 LAN9116 crystal input/output
signals (XTAL1, XTAL2). See Table 7-6, "LAN9116 Crystal Specifications" for crystal specifications. Refer to Microchip
Application Note AN10.7 - “Parallel Crystal Circuit Input Voltage Control” and the LAN9116 Reference Schematic for
additional information.

Note 7-11
The maximum allowable values for Frequency Tolerance and Frequency Stability are application
dependent. 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.
