LPI Control and Status
TLPIEN | When set this bit indicates that the MAC Transmitter has entered the LPI state because of the setting of the LPIEN bit. This bit is cleared by a read into this register. |
TLPIEX | When set this bit indicates that the MAC transmitter has exited the LPI state after the user has cleared the LPIEN bit and the LPI_TW_Timer has expired.This bit is cleared by a read into this register. |
RLPIEN | When set this bit indicates that the MAC Receiver has received an LPI pattern and entered the LPI state. This bit is cleared by a read into this register. |
RLPIEX | When set this bit indicates that the MAC Receiver has stopped receiving the LPI pattern on the MII interface exited the LPI state and resumed the normal reception. This bit is cleared by a read into this register. |
TLPIST | When set this bit indicates that the MAC is transmitting the LPI pattern on the MII interface. |
RLPIST | When set this bit indicates that the MAC is receiving the LPI pattern on the MII interface. |
LPIEN | When set this bit instructs the MAC Transmitter to enter the LPI state. When reset this bit instructs the MAC to exit the LPI state and resume normal transmission.This bit is cleared when the LPITXA bit is set and the MAC exits the LPI state because of the arrival of a new packet for transmission. |
PLS | This bit indicates the link status of the PHY.When set the link is considered to be okay (up) and when reset the link is considered to be down. |
LPITXA | This bit controls the behavior of the MAC when it is entering or coming out of the LPI mode on the transmit side.If the LPITXA and LPIEN bits are set to 1 the MAC enters the LPI mode only after all outstanding frames and pending frames have been transmitted. The MAC comes out of the LPI mode when the application sends any frame.When this bit is 0 the LPIEN bit directly controls behavior of the MAC when it is entering or coming out of the LPI mode. |
