Networking Silicon — GD82559ER 1. Introduction
1.1 GD82559ER Overview
The 82559ER is part of Intel's second generation family of fully integrated 10BASE-T/100BASE- TX LAN solutions. The 82559ER consists of both the Media Access Controller (MAC) and the physical layer (PHY) combined into a single component solution. 82559 family members build on the basic functionality of the 82558 and contain power management enhancements. The 82559ER is a 32-bit PCI controller that features enhanced scatter-gather bus mastering capabilities which enables the 82559ER to perform high-speed data transfers over the PCI bus.The 82559ER bus master capabilities enable the component to process high-level commands and perform multiple operations, thereby off-loading communication tasks from the system CPU. Two large transmit and receive FIFOs of 3 Kbytes each help prevent data underruns and overruns, allowing the 82559ER to transmit data with minimum interframe spacing (IFS). The 82559ER can operate in either full duplex or half duplex mode. In full duplex mode the 82559ER adheres to the IEEE 802.3x Flow Control specification. Half duplex performance is enhanced by a proprietary collision reduction mechanism. The 82559ER includes a simple PHY interface to the wire transformer at rates of 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX, and Auto-Negotiation capability for speed, duplex, and flow control. These features and others reduce cost, real estate, and design complexity. The 82559ER also includes an interface to a serial (4-pin) EEPROM and a parallel interface to a 128 Kbyte Flash memory. The EEPROM provides power-on initialization for hardware and software configuration parameters

Networking Silicon — GD82559ER 2. GD82559ER Architectural Overview Figure 1 is a high level block diagram of the 82559ER. It is divided into four main subsystems: a parallel subsystem, a FIFO subsystem, the 10/100 Mbps Carrier-Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detect (CSMA/CD) unit, and the 10/100 Mbps physical layer (PHY) unit.
2.1 Parallel Subs ystem Overview
The parallel subsystem is broken down into several functional blocks: a PCI bus master interface, a micromachine processing unit and its corresponding microcode ROM, and a PCI Target Control/ Flash/EEPROM interface. The parallel subsystem also interfaces to the FIFO subsystem, passing data (such as transmit, receive, and configuration data) and command and status parameters between these two blocks. The PCI bus master interface provides a complete glueless interface to a PCI bus and is compliant with the PCI Bus Specification, Revision 2.2. The 82559ER provides 32 bits of addressing and data, as well as the complete control interface to operate on a PCI bus. As a PCI target, it follows the PCI configuration format which allows all accesses to the 82559ER to be automatically mapped into free memory and I/O space upon initialization of a PCI system. For processing of transmit and receive frames, the 82559ER operates as a master on the PCI bus, initiating zero wait state transfers for accessing these data parameters. The 82559ER Control/Status Register Block is part of the PCI target element. The Control/Status Register block consists of the following 82559ER internal control registers: System Control Block (SCB), PORT, Flash Control, EEPROM Control, and Management Data Interface (MDI) Control. The micromachine is an embedded processing unit contained in the 82559ER. The micromachine accesses the 82559ER microcode ROM working its way through the opcodes (or instructions) contained in the ROM to perform its functions. Parameters accessed from memory such as pointers to data buffers are also used by the micromachine during the processing of transmit or receive frames by the 82559ER. A typical micromachine function is to transfer a data buffer pointer field to the 82559ER DMA unit for direct access to the data buffer. The micromachine is divided into two units, Receive Unit and Command Unit which includes transmit functions. These two units Fi gure 1. 82559ER Block Diagram 10/100 Mb ps CSMA/CD Data Interface Unit (DIU ) 100BASE-TX/ 10BASE-T PHY Four Channel Addressin g Unit - DMA PCI Bus Interface Unit (BIU ) PCI Target and Flash/EEPROM Interface Micro- machine Dual Ported FIFO

operate independently. Control is switched between the two units according to the microcode instruction flow. The independence of the Receive and Command units in the micromachine allows the 82559ER to interleave commands and receive incoming frames, with no real-time CPU intervention. The 82559ER contains an interface to an external Flash memory, and external serial EEPROM. These two interfaces are multiplexed. The Flash interface, which could also be used to connect to any standard 8-bit device, provides up to 128 Kbytes of addressing to the Flash. Both read and write accesses are supported. The Flash may be used for remote boot functions, network statistical and diagnostics functions, and management functions. The Flash is mapped into host system memory (anywhere within the 32-bit memory address space) for software accesses. It is also mapped into an available boot expansion ROM location during boot time of the system. More information on the Flash interface is detailed in Section 4.3, “Parallel Flash Interface” on page 28. The EEPROM is used to store relevant information for a LAN connection such as node address, as well as board manufacturing and configuration information. Both read and write accesses to the EEPROM are supported by the 82559ER. Information on the EEPROM interface is detailed in Section 4.4, “Serial EEPROM Interface” on page 28.
2.2 FIFO Subs ystem Overview
The 82559ER FIFO subsystem consists of a 3 Kbyte transmit FIFO and 3 Kbyte receive FIFO. Each FIFO is unidirectional and independent of the other. The FIFO subsystem serves as the interface between the 82559ER parallel side and the serial CSMA/CD unit. It provides a temporary buffer storage area for frames as they are either being received or transmitted by the 82559ER, which improves performance:
- Transmit frames can be queued within the transmit FIFO, allowing back-to-back transmission within the minimum Interframe Spacing (IFS).
- The storage area in the FIFO allows the 82559ER to withstand long PCI bus latencies without losing incoming data or corrupting outgoing data.
- The 82559ER transmit FIFO threshold allows the transmit start threshold to be tuned to eliminate underruns while concurrent transmits are being performed (i.e. pending transmits will not be affected by the change in FIFO threshold).
- The FIFO subsection allows extended PCI burst accesses with zero wait states to or from the 82559ER for both transmit and receive frames. This is because such the transfer is to the FIFO storage area, rather than directly to the serial link.
- Transmissions resulting in errors (collision detection or data underrun) are retransmitted directly from the 82559ER FIFO, therey increasing performance and eliminating the need to re-access this data from the host system.
- Incoming runt receive frames (frames that are less than the legal minimum frame size) can be discarded automatically by the 82559ER without transferring this faulty data to the host system, and without host intervention.
- Bad Frames resolution can be selectively left to the 82559ER, or under software control.
Networking Silicon — GD82559ER 2.3 10/100 Mb ps Serial CSMA/CD Unit Overview The CSMA/CD unit of the 82559ER allows it to be connected to either a 10 or 100 Mbps Ethernet network. The CSMA/CD unit performs all of the functions of the 802.3 protocol such as frame formatting, frame stripping, collision handling, deferral to link traffic, etc. The CSMA/CD unit can also be placed in a full-duplex mode, which allows simultaneous transmission and reception of frames. 2.4 10/100 Mb ps Physical Layer Unit The Physical Layer (PHY) unit of the 82559ER allows connection to either a 10 or 100 Mbps Ethernet network. The PHY unit supports Auto-Negotiation for 100BASE-TX Full Duplex, 100BASE-TX Half Duplex, 10BASE-T Full Duplex, and 10BASE-T Half Duplex. It also supports three LED pins to indicate link status, network activity, and speed.The 82559ER does not support external PHY devices and does not expose its internal MII bus.

3.2.1 Address and Data Si gnals
IN Input The input pin is a standard input onl y signal. OUT Output The output pin is a Totem Pole Output pin and is a standard active driver. T/S Tri-State The tri-state pin is a bidirectional, input/output pin. S/T/S Sustained Tri-State The sustained tri-state pin is an active low tri-state signal owned and driven by one agent at a time. The agent asserting the S/T/ S pin low must drive it high at least one clock cycle before floating the pin. A new agent can only assert an S/T/S signal low one clock cycle after it has been tri-stated by the previous owner. O/D Open Drain The open drain pin allows multiple devices to share this signal as a wired-OR. A/I Analo g Input The analo g input pin is used for analog input signals. A/O Analo g Output The analo g output pin is used for analog output signals. B Bias The bias pin is an input bias. Symbol Type Name and Function AD[31:0] T/S Address and Data. The address and data lines are multiplexed on the same PCI pins. A bus transaction consists of an address phase followed b y one or more data phases. During the address phase, the address and data lines contain the 32-bit physical address. For I/O, this is a byte address; for configuration and memory, it is a Dword address. The 82559ER uses little-endian byte ordering (in other words, AD[31:24] contain the most significant byte and AD[7:0] contain the least significant byte). During the data phases, the address and data lines contain data. C/BE[3:0]# T/S Command and Byte Enable. The bus command and byte enable signals are multiplexed on the same PCI pins. During the address phase, the C/BE# lines define the bus command. During the data phase, the C/BE# lines are used as Byte Enables. The Byte Enables are valid for the entire data phase and determine which byte lanes carry meaningful data. PAR T/S Parity. Parity is even across AD[31:0] and C/BE[3:0]# lines. It is stable and valid one clock after the address phase. For data phases, PAR is stable and valid one clock after either IRDY# is asserted on a write transaction or TRDY# is asserted on a read transaction.Once PAR is valid, it remains valid until one clock after the completion of the current data phase. The master drives PAR for address and write data phases; and the tar get, for read data phases.

Symbol Type Name and Function FRAME# S/T/S Cycle Frame. The cycle frame signal is driven by the current master to indicate the beginning and duration of a transaction. FRAME# is asserted to indicate the start of a transaction and de-asserted during the final data phase. IRDY# S/T/S Initiator Ready. The initiator ready signal indicates the bus master’s ability to complete the current data phase and is used in conjunction with the target ready (TRDY# ) signal. A data phase is completed on any clock cycle where both IRDY# and TRDY# are sampled asserted (low) simultaneously. TRDY# S/T/S Target Ready. The target ready signal indicates the selected device’s ability to complete the current data phase and is used in conjunction with the initiator ready (IRDY# ) signal. A data phase is completed on any clock cycle where both IRDY# and TRDY# are sampled asserted (low) simultaneously. STOP# S/T/S Stop. The stop signal is driven by the target to indicate to the initiator that it wishes to stop the current transaction. As a bus slave, STOP# is driven b y the 82559ER to inform the bus master to stop the current transaction. As a bus master, STOP# is received by the 82559ER to stop the current transaction. IDSEL IN Initialization Device Select. The initialization device select signal is used by the 82559ER as a chip select during PCI configuration read and write transactions. This signal is provided by the host in PCI systems. DEVSEL# S/T/S Device Select. The device select signal is asserted by the target once it has detected its address. As a bus master, the DEVSEL# is an input si gnal to the 82559ER indicating whether any device on the bus has been selected. As a bus slave, the 82559ER asserts DEVSEL# to indicate that it has decoded its address as the tar get of the current transaction. REQ# T/S Request. The request signal indicates to the bus arbiter that the 82559ER desires use of the bus. This is a point-to-point signal and every bus master has its own REQ#. GNT# IN Grant. The grant signal is asserted by the bus arbiter and indicates to the 82559ER that access to the bus has been granted. This is a point- to-point signal and every master has its own GNT#. INTA# O/D Interrupt A. The interrupt A signal is used to request an interrupt by the 82559ER. This is an active low, level triggered interrupt signal. SERR# O/D System Error. The system error signal is used to report address parity errors. When an error is detected, SERR# is driven low for a single PCI clock. PERR# S/T/S Parity Error. The parity error signal is used to report data parity errors during all PCI transactions except a Special Cycle. The parity error pin is asserted two clock cycles after the error was detected by the device receiving data. The minimum duration of PERR# is one clock for each data phase where an error is detected. A device cannot report a parity error until it has claimed the access by asserting DEVSEL# and completed a data phase.

PME# O/D Power Management Event. The Power Management Event signal indicates that a power management event has occurred in a PCI bus system. ISOLATE# IN Isolate. The Isolate signal is used to isolate the 82559ER from the PCI bus. When Isolate is active (low), the 82559ER does not drive its PCI outputs (except PME#) or sample its PCI inputs (including CLK and RST#). If the 82559ER is not powered by an auxiliary power source, the ISOLATE# pin should be pulled high to the bus Vcc through a 4.7K-62K resistor. ALTRST# IN Alternate Reset. The Alternate Reset signal is used to reset the 82559ER on power-up. In systems that support an auxiliary power supply, ALTRST# should be connected to a power-up detection circuit.

4.2 PCI Interface
4.2.1 82559ER Bus O perations After configuration, the 82559ER is ready for normal operation. As a Fast Ethernet controller, the role of the 82559ER is to access transmitted data or deposit received data. In both cases the 82559ER, as a bus master device, will initiate memory cycles via the PCI bus to fetch or deposit the required data. To perform these actions, the 82559ER is controlled and examined by the CPU via its control and status structures and registers. Some of these control and status structures reside in the 82559ER and some reside in system memory. For access to the 82559ER’s Control/Status Registers (CSR), the 82559ER acts as a slave (in other words, a target device). The 82559ER serves as a slave also while the CPU accesses its 128 Kbyte Flash buffer or its EEPROM. Section 4.2.1.1 describes the 82559ER slave operation. It is followed by a description of the 82559ER operation as a bus master (initiator) in Section 4.2.1.2, “82559ER Bus Master Operation” on page 18. 4.2.1.1 82559ER Bus Slave O peration The 82559ER serves as a target device in one of the following cases:
- CPU accesses to the 82559ER System Control Block (SCB) Control/Status Registers (CSR)
- CPU accesses to the EEPROM through its CSR
- CPU accesses to the 82559ER PORT address via the CSR
- CPU accesses to the MDI control register in the CSR
- CPU accesses to the Flash control register in the CSR
- CPU accesses to the 128 Kbyte Flash The CSR and the Flash buffer are considered by the 82559ER as two totally separated memory spaces. The 82559ER provides separate Base Address Registers (BARs) in the configuration space to distinguish between them. The size of the CSR memory space is 4 Kbyte in the memory space and 64 bytes in the I/O space. The 82559ER treats accesses to these memory spaces differently.
4.2.1.1.1 Control/Status Register (CSR ) Accesses
The 82559ER supports zero wait-state single-cycle memory or I/O-mapped accesses to its CSR space. Separate BARs request 4 Kbytes of memory space and 64 bytes of I/O space to accomplish this. Based on its needs, the software driver will use either memory or I/O mapping to access these registers. The 4 Kbytes of CSR space the 82559ER requests include the following elements:
- System Control Block (SCB) registers
- PORT register
- Flash control register
- EEPROM control register
- MDI control register

controls the TRDY# signal and asserts it from the data access. The 82559ER allows the CPU to issue only one I/O write cycle to the Control/Status Registers, generating a disconnect by asserting the STOP# signal. This is true for both memory mapped and I/O mapped accesses.
4.2.1.1.2 Flash Buffer Accesses
The CPU accesses to the Flash buffer are very slow. For this reason the 82559ER issues a target- disconnect at the first data access. The 82559ER asserts the STOP# signal to indicate a target- disconnect. The figures below illustrate memory CPU read and write accesses to the 128 Kbyte Flash buffer. The longest burst cycle to the Flash buffer contains one data access only. Read Accesses: The CPU, as the initiator, drives the address lines AD[31:0], the command and byte enable lines C/BE#[3:0] and the control lines IRDY# and FRAME#. The 82559ER controls the TRDY# signal and de-asserts it for a certain number of clocks until valid data can be read from the Flash buffer. When TRDY# is asserted, the 82559ER drives valid data on the AD[31:0] lines. The CPU can also insert wait states by de-asserting IRDY# until it is ready. Flash buffer read accesses can be byte or word length. Fi gure 4. Flash Buffer Read Cycle SYSTEM82559ER CLK FRAME# C/BE# IRDY# TRDY# DEVSEL# AD ADDR DATA MEM RD BE# STOP#
Networking Silicon — GD82559ER Write Accesses: The CPU, as the initiator, drives the address lines AD[31:0], the command and byte enable lines C/BE#[3:0] and the control lines IRDY# and FRAME# . It also provides the 82559ER with valid data immediately after asserting IRDY# . The 82559ER controls the TRDY# signal and de-asserts it for a certain number of clocks until valid data is written to the Flash buffer. By asserting TRDY# , the 82559ER signals the CPU that the current data access has completed. Flash buffer write accesses can be byte length only.
4.2.1.1.3 Retry Premature Accesses
The 82559ER responds with a Retry to any configuration cycle accessing the 82559ER before the completion of the automatic read of the EEPROM. The 82559ER may continue to Retry any configuration accesses until the EEPROM read is complete. The 82559ER does not enforce the rule that the retried master must attempt to access the same address again to complete any delayed transaction. Any master access to the 82559ER after the completion of the EEPROM read will be honored. Figure 6 depicts the operation of a Retry cycle. Fi gure 5.

Note: The 82559ER is considered the target in the above diagram; thus, TRDY# is not asserted.
4.2.1.1.4 Error Handling
Data Parity Errors: The 82559ER checks for data parity errors while it is the target of the transaction. If an error was detected, the 82559ER always sets the Detected Parity Error bit in the PCI Configuration Status register, bit 15. The 82559ER also asserts PERR#, if the Parity Error Response bit is set (PCI Configuration Command register, bit 6). The 82559ER does not attempt to terminate a cycle in which a parity error was detected. This gives the initiator the option of recovery. Target-Disconnect: The 82559ER prematurely terminate a cycle in the following cases:
- After accesses to the Flash buffer
- After accesses to its CSR
- After accesses to the configuration space System Error: The 82559ER reports parity error during the address phase using the SERR# pin. If the SERR# Enable bit in the PCI Configuration Command register or the Parity Error Response bit are not set, the 82559ER only sets the Detected Parity Error bit (PCI Configuration Status register, bit 15). If SERR# Enable and Parity Error Response bits are both set, the 82559ER sets the Signaled System Error bit (PCI Configuration Status register, bit 14) as well as the Detected Parity Error bit and asserts SERR# for one clock. The 82559ER, when detecting system error, will claim the cycle if it was the target of the transaction and continue the transaction as if the address was correct. Note: The 82559ER will report a system error for any parity error during an address phase, whether or not it is involved in the current transaction. 4.2.1.2 82559ER Bus Master O peration As a PCI Bus Master, the 82559ER initiates memory cycles to fetch data for transmission or deposit received data and for accessing the memory resident control structures. The 82559ER performs zero wait state burst read and write cycles to the host main memory. Figure 7 and Figure Fi gure 6. PCI Retry Cycle SYSTEM82559ER CLK FRAME# IRDY# TRDY# DEVSEL# STOP#

Byte Count value indicates the maximum number of transmit DMA PCI cycles that will be completed after an 82559ER internal arbitration. (Details on the Configure command are described in the Software Developer’ s Manual.) The 82559ER, as the initiator, drives the address lines AD[31:0], the command and byte enable lines C/BE#[3:0] and the control lines IRDY# and FRAME#. The 82559ER asserts IRDY# to support zero wait state burst cycles. The target signals the 82559ER that valid data is ready to be read by asserting the TRDY# signal. Write Accesses: The 82559ER performs block transfers to host system memory during frame reception. In this case, the 82559ER initiates memory write burst cycles to deposit the data, usually without wait states. The length of a burst is bounded by the system and the 82559ER’s internal FIFO threshold. The length of a write burst may also be bounded by the value of the Receive DMA Maximum Byte Count in the Configure command. The Receive DMA Maximum Byte Count value indicates the maximum number of receive DMA PCI transfers that will be completed before the 82559ER internal arbitration. (Details on the Configure command are described in the Software Developer’ s Manual.) The 82559ER, as the initiator, drives the address lines AD[31:0], the command and byte enable lines C/BE#[3:0] and the control lines IRDY# and FRAME#. The 82559ER asserts IRDY# to support zero wait state burst cycles. The 82559ER also drives valid data on AD[31:0] lines during each data phase (from the first clock and on). The target controls the length and signals completion of a data phase by de-assertion and assertion of TRDY#. Cycle Completion: The 82559ER completes (terminates) its initiated memory burst cycles in the following cases:
- Normal Completion: All transaction data has been transferred to or from the target device (for example, host main memory).
- Backoff: Latency Timer has expired and the bus grant signal (GNT#) was removed from the 82559ER by the arbiter, indicating that the 82559ER has been preempted by another bus master.
- Transmit or Receive DMA Maximum Byte Count : The 82559ER burst has reached the length specified in the Transmit or Receive DMA Maximum Byte Count field in the Configure command block. (Details relating to this field and the Configure command are described in the Software Developer’ s Manual.)
- Target Termination: The target may request to terminate the transaction with a target- disconnect, target-retry, or target-abort. In the first two cases, the 82559ER initiates the cycle again. In the case of a target-abort, the 82559ER sets the Received Target-Abort bit in the PCI Configuration Status field (PCI Configuration Status register, bit 12) and does not re-initiate the cycle.
- Master Abort: The target of the transaction has not responded to the address initiated by the 82559ER (in other words, DEVSEL# has not been asserted). The 82559ER simply de-asserts FRAME# and IRDY# as in the case of normal completion.
- Error Condition: In the event of parity or any other system error detection, the 82559ER completes its current initiated transaction. Any further action taken by the 82559ER depends on the type of error and other conditions.
4.2.1.2.1 Memory Write and Invalidate
The 82559ER has four Direct Memory Access (DMA) channels. Of these four channels, the Receive DMA is used to deposit the large number of data bytes received from the link into system memory. The Receive DMA uses both the Memory Write (MW) and the Memory Write and Invalidate (MWI) commands. To use MWI, the 82559ER must guarantee the following:
Networking Silicon — GD82559ER 1. Minimum transfer of one cache line 2. Active byte enable bits (or BE#[3:0] are all low) during MWI access 3. The 82559ER may cross the cache line boundary only if it intends to transfer the next cache line too. To ensure the above conditions, the 82559ER may use the MWI command only if the following conditions hold: 1. The Cache Line Size (CLS) written in the CLS register during PCI configuration is 8 or 16 Dwords. 2. The accessed address is cache line aligned. 3. The 82559ER has at least 8 or 16 Dwords of data in its receive FIFO. 4. There are at least 8 or 16 Dwords of data space left in the system memory buffer. 5. The MWI Enable bit in the PCI Configuration Command register, bit 4, should is set to 1b. 6. The MWI Enable bit in the 82559ER Configure command should is set to 1b. (Details on the Configure command are described in the Software Developer’ s Manual.) If any one of the above conditions does not hold, the 82559ER will use the MW command. If a MWI cycle has started and one of the conditions is no longer valid (for example, the data space in the memory buffer is now less than CLS), then the 82559ER terminates the MWI cycle at the end of the cache line. The next cycle will be either a MW or MWI cycle depending on the conditions listed above. If the 82559ER started a MW cycle and reached a cache line boundary, it either continues or terminates the cycle depending on the Terminate Write on Cache Line configuration bit of the 82559ER Configure command (byte 3, bit 3). If this bit is set, the 82559ER terminates the MW cycle and attempts to start a new cycle. The new cycle is a MWI cycle if this bit is set and all of the above listed conditions are met. If the bit is not set, the 82559ER continues the MW cycle across the cache line boundary if required. (Details on the Configure command are described in the Software Developer’ s Manual.)
4.2.1.2.2 Read Align
The Read Align feature enhances the 82559ER’s performance in cache line oriented systems. In these particular systems, starting a PCI transaction on a non-cache line aligned address may cause low performance. To resolve this performance anomaly, the 82559ER attempts to terminate transmit DMA cycles on a cache line boundary and start the next transaction on a cache line aligned address. This feature is enabled when the Read Align Enable bit is set in the 82559ER Configure command (byte 3, bit 2). (Details on the Configure command are described in the Software Developer’ s Manual.) If this bit is set, the 82559ER operates as follows:
- When the 82559ER is almost out of resources on the transmit DMA (that is, the transmit FIFO is almost full), it attempts to terminate the read transaction on the nearest cache line boundary when possible.
- When the arbitration counter’s feature is enabled (in other words, the Transmit DMA Maximum Byte Count value is set in the Configure command), the 82559ER switches to other pending DMAs on the cache line boundary only. Note the following:
GD82559ER — Networkin g Silicon
22 Datasheet
- This feature is not recommended for use in non-cache line oriented systems since it may cause shorter bursts and lower performance.
- This feature should be used only when the CLS register in PCI Configuration space is set to 8 or 16 Dwords.
- The 82559ER reads all control data structures (including Receive Buffer Descriptors) from the first Dword (even if it is not required) to maintain cache line alignment.
4.2.1.2.3 Error Handling
Data Parity Errors: As an initiator, the 82559ER checks and detects data parity errors that occur during a transaction. If the Parity Error Response bit is set (PCI Configuration Command register, bit 6), the 82559ER also asserts PERR# and sets the Data Parity Detected bit (PCI Configuration Status register, bit 8). In addition, if the error was detected by the 82559ER during read cycles, it sets the Detected Parity Error bit (PCI Configuration Status register, bit 15).
4.2.2 Clockrun Si gnal
The CLKRUN# signal is used to control the PCI clock as defined in the PCI Mobile design guide and is compliant with the PCI Mobile design guide. The Clockrun signal is an open drain I/O signal. It is used as a bidirectional channel between the host and the devices.
- The host de-asserts the CLKRUN# signal to indicate that the PCI clock is about to be stopped or slowed down to a non-operational frequency.
- The host asserts the CLKRUN# signal when the interface clock is either running at a normal operating frequency or about to be started.
- The 82559ER asserts the CLKRUN# signal to indicate that it needs the PCI clock to prevent the host from stopping the PCI clock or to request that the host restore the clock if it was previously stopped. Proper operation requires that the system latency from the nominal PCI CLK to CLKRUN# assertion should be less than 0.5 µs. If the system latency is longer than 0.5 µs, the occurrence of receive overruns increases. For use in these types of systems, the Clockrun functionality should be disabled (see Section 8.1.12, “General Control Register” on page 61). In this case, the 82559ER will claim the PCI clock even during idle time. If the CLKRUN# signal is not used, it should be connected to a pull-down resistor (62KΩ). The value of the resistor selected is dependent on the ND-TREE set-up used (i.e. the test fixture must be able to overdrive pull-down).
4.2.3 Power Mana gement Event Signal
The 82559ER supports power management indications in the PCI mode. The PME# output pin provides an indication of a power management event to the system. PCI Power Management In addition to the base functionality of the 82558 B-step, the 82559 family supports a larger set of wake-up packets and the capability to wake the system on a link status change from a low power state. The 82559ER enables the host system to be in a sleep state and remain virtually connected to the network. After a power management event or link status change is detected, the 82559ER will wake the host system. The sections below describe these events, the 82559ER power states, and estimated power consumption at each power state.
Networking Silicon — GD82559ER
4.2.4 Power States
The 82559ER’s power management register implements all four power states as defined in the Power Management Network Device Class Reference Specification, Revision 1.0. The four states, D0 through D3, vary from maximum power consumption at D0 to the minimum power consumption at D3. PCI transactions are only allowed in the D0 state, except for host accesses to the 82559ER’s PCI configuration registers. The D1 and D2 power management states enable intermediate power savings while providing the system wake-up capabilities. In the D3 cold state, the 82559ER can provide wake-up capabilities only if auxiliary power is supplied. Wake-up indications from the 82559ER are provided by the Power Management Event (PME#).
4.2.4.1 D0 Power State
As defined in the Network Device Class Reference Specification, the device is fully functional in the D0 power state. In this state, the 82559ER receives full power and should be providing full functionality. In the 82559ER the D0 state is partitioned into two substates, D0 Uninitialized (D0u) and D0 Active (D0a). D0u is the 82559ER’s initial power state following a PCI RST#. While in the D0u state, the 82559ER has PCI slave functionality to support its initialization by the host and supports wake up events. Initialization of the CSR, Memory, or I/O Base Address Registers in the PCI Configuration space switches the 82559ER from the D0u state to the D0a state. In the D0a state, the 82559ER provides its full functionality and consumes its nominal power. In addition, the 82559ER supports wake on link status change (see Section 4.2.5, “Wake-up Events” on page 27). While it is active, the 82559ER requires a nominal PCI clock signal (in other words, a clock frequency greater than 16 MHz) for proper operation. During idle time, the 82559ER supports a PCI clock signal suspension using the Clockrun signal mechanism. The 82559ER supports a dynamic standby mode. In this mode, the 82559ER is able to save almost as much power as it does in the static power-down states. The transition to or from standby is done dynamically by the 82559ER and is transparent to the software.
4.2.4.2 D1 Power State
In order for a device to meet the D1 power state requirements, as specified in the Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) Specification, Revision 1.0, it must not allow bus transmission or interrupts; however, bus reception is allowed. Therefore, device context may be lost and the 82559ER does not initiate any PCI activity. In this state, the 82559ER responds only to PCI accesses to its configuration space and system wake-up events. The 82559ER retains link integrity and monitors the link for any wake-up events such as wake-up packets or link status change. Following a wake-up event, the 82559ER asserts the PME# signal to alert the PCI based system.
4.2.4.3 D2 Power State
The ACPI D2 power state is similar in functionality to the D1 power state. If the bus is in the B2 state, the 82559ER will consume less current than it does in the D1 state. In addition to D1 functionality, the 82559ER can provide a lower power mode with wake-on-link status change capability. The 82559ER may enter this mode if the link is down while the 82559ER is in the D2 state. In this state, the 82559ER monitors the link for a transition from an invalid link to a valid link. The 82559ER will not attempt to keep the link alive by transmitting idle symbols or link integrity pulses.
1 The sub-10 mA state due to an invalid link can be enabled or disabled by a
configuration bit in the Power Management Driver Register (PMDR).
GD82559ER — Networkin g Silicon
24 Datasheet
4.2.4.4 D3 Power State
In the D3 power state, the 82559ER has the same capabilities and consumes the same amount of power as it does in the D2 state. However, it enables the PCI system to be in the B3 state. If the PCI system is in the B3 state (in other words, no PCI power is present), the 82559ER provides wake-up capabilities if it is connected to an auxiliary power source in the system. If PME is disabled, the 82559ER does not provide wake-up capability or maintain link integrity. In this mode the 82559ER consumes its minimal power. The 82559ER enables a system to be in a sub-5 watt state (low power state) and still be virtually connected. More specifically, the 82559ER supports full wake-up capabilities while it is in the cold state. The 82559ER can be connected to an auxiliary power source (VAUX ), which enables it to provide wake-up functionality while the PCI power is off. The typical current consumption of the 82559ER is 125 mA at 3.3 V . Thus, a dual power plane is not required. If connected to an auxiliary power source, the 82559ER receives all of its power from the auxiliary source in all power states.
4.2.4.5 Understandin g Power Requirements
When running the 82559ER off a 3.3V_standby power source, the actual power consumption will scale with network traffic. In other words, if the 82559ER is monitoring the network for ACPI “Interesting Packets” only the PCI bus specific circuitry will be disabled. As an a example the 8259ER will typically draw approximately 120mA, in D1-D3 under a full Ethernet load. In the D0 state, the 82559ER will typically consume 125mA under the same load conditions. The tables below summarizes the 82559ER’s functionality and power consumption at the different power states NOTE: All values shown for the D3 state assume the availability of 3.3 V Standby available to the device. 1. For a topology of two 82559ER devices connected by a crossed twisted-pair Ethernet cable, the deep power-down mode should be disabled. If it is enabled, the two devices may not detect each other if the operating system places them into a low power state before both nodes become active.

Networking Silicon — GD82559ER
4.2.4.6 Auxiliar y Power Signal
The 82559ER senses whether it is connected to the PCI power supply or to an auxiliary power supply (VAUX ) via the FLA1/AUXPWR pin. The auxiliary power detection pin (multiplexed with FLA1) is sampled when the PCI RST# or ALTRST# signals are active. An external pull-up resistor should be connected to the 82559ER if it is fed by VAUX ; otherwise, the FLA1/AUXPWR pin should be left floating. The presence of AUXPWR affects the value reported in the Power Management Capability Register (PCI Configuration Space, offset DEH). The Power Management Capability Register is described in more detail in Section 7.1.18, “Power Management Capabilities Register” on page 54.
4.2.4.7 Alternate Reset Signal
The 82559ER’s ALTRST# input pin functions as a power-on reset input. Following ALTRST# being driven low, the 82559ER is initialized to a known state. In systems that support auxiliary power, this pin should be connected to the auxiliary power’s power stable signal (power good) of the 82559ER’s power source. In a LAN on Motherboard solution, this signal is available on the system. In network adapter implementations, an external analog device connected to the auxiliary power supply can be used to produce this signal. In systems that do not have an auxiliary power source, the ALTRST# signal should be tied to a pull-up resistor.
4.2.4.7.1 Isolate Signal
When the 82559ER is connected to VAUX , it may be powered on while the PCI bus is powered off. In this case, the 82559ER isolates itself from the PCI bus. The 82559ER has a dedicated ISOLATE# pin that should be connected to the PCI power source’s stable power signal (power good). Whenever the PCI Bus is in the B3 state, the PCI power good signal becomes inactive and the 82559ER isolates itself from the PCI bus. During this state, the 82559ER ignores all PCI signals including the RST# and CLK signals. It also tri-states all PCI outputs, except the PME# signal. In the transition to an active PCI power state (in other words, from B3 power state to B0 power state), the PCI power good signal shifts high.

4.2.4.7.2 PCI Reset Signal
- Power-up
- Warm boot
- Wake-up (B3 to B0 transition)
- Set to power-down (B0 to B3 transition) If PME is enabled (in the PCI power management registers), the RST# signal does not affect any PME related circuits (in other words, PCI power management registers, and the wake-up packet would not be affected). While the RST# signal is active, the 82559ER ignores other PCI signals and floats its outputs. However, if AUXPWR is asserted, the RST# signal has no affect on any circuitry. While the 82559ER is in the D0, D1, or D2 power state, it is initialized by the RST# level. When the 82559ER is in the D3 power state, the system bus may be in the B3 bus power state. In the B3 power state, the PCI RST# signal is undefined; however, the auxiliary power source proposal for the PCI Specification, Revision 2.2 is for the PCI RST# signal to be an active low. Therefore, the 82559ER uses the PCI RST# similarly to the ISOLATE# signal in D3 power state. Following the trailing edge of the PCI RST#, the 82559ER is initialized while preserving the PME# signal and its context. Note: According to the PCI specification, during the B3 state, the RST# signal is undefined. The transition from the B3 power state to the B0 power state occurs on the trailing edge of the RST# signal. The initialization signal is generated internally in the following cases:
- Active RST# signal while the 82559ER is the D0, D1, or D2 power state
- RST# trailing edge while the 82559ER is in the D3 power state
Figure 9. Isolate Signal Behavior to PCI Power Good Signal
- ISOLATE# trailing edge The internal initialization signal resets the PCI Configuration Space, MAC configuration, and memory structure. The behavior of the PCI RST# signal and the internal 82559ER initialization signal are shown in the figure below.

- Direct Packets (with or without type qualification)
- Neighbor Discovery Multicast Address Packet (‘ARP’ in IPv6 environment)
- NetBIOS over TCP/IP (NBT) Query Packet (under IPv4)
- Internetwork Package Exchange* (IPX) Diagnostic Packet This allows the 82559ER to handle various packet types. In general, the 82559ER supports programmable filtering of any packet in the first 128 bytes.

4.2.5.2 Link Status Chan ge Event
The 82559ER link status indication circuit is capable of issuing a PME on a link status change from a valid link to an invalid link condition or vice versa. The 82559ER reports a PME link status event in all power states. The PME# signal is gated by the PME Enable bit in the PMCSR and the CSMA Configure command, which is described in the Software Developer’s Manual.
4.3 Parallel Flash Interface
The 82559ER’s parallel interface is used primarily as a Flash interface. The 82559ER supports a glueless interface to an 8-bit wide, 128 Kbyte, parallel memory device. The Flash (or boot PROM) is read from or written to whenever the host CPU performs a read or a write operation to a memory location that is within the Flash mapping window. All accesses to the Flash, except read accesses, require the appropriate command sequence for the device used. (Refer to the specific Flash data sheet for more details on reading from or writing to the Flash device.) The accesses to the Flash are based on a direct decode of CPU accesses to a memory window defined in either the 82559ER Flash Base Address Register (PCI Configuration space at offset 18H) or the Expansion ROM Base Address Register (PCI Configuration space at offset 30H). The 82559ER asserts control to the Flash when it decodes a valid access. The 82559ER supports an external Flash memory (or boot PROM) of up to 128 Kbyte. The Expansion ROM BAR can be separately disabled by setting the corresponding bit in the EEPROM, word AH. Note: Flash accesses must always be assembled or disassembled by the 82559ER whenever the access is greater than a byte-wide access. Due to slow access times to a typical Flash and to avoid violating PCI bus holding specifications (no more than 16 wait states inserted for any cycles that are not system initiation cycles), the maximum data size is either one word or one byte for a read operation and one byte only for a write operation.
4.4 Serial EEPROM Interface
The serial EEPROM stores configuration data for the 82559ER and is a serial in/serial out device. The 82559ER supports a either a 64 register or 256 register size EEPROM and automatically detects the EEPROM’s size. The EEPROM should operate at a frequency of at least 1 MHz.

4.5.1 Full Du plex
When operating in full duplex mode the 82559ER can transmit and receive frames simultaneously. Transmission starts regardless of the state of the internal receive path. Reception starts when the internal PHY detects a valid frame on the receive differential pair of the PHY . The 82559ER operates in either half duplex mode or full duplex mode. For proper operation, both the 82559ER CSMA/CD module and the PHY unit must be set to the same duplex mode. The CSMA duplex mode is set by the 82559ER Configure command or forced by automatically tracking the mode in the PHY unit. The PHY duplex mode is set either by Auto-Negotiation or, if Auto-Negotiation is disabled, by setting the full duplex bit in the Management Data Interface (MDI) Register 0, bit 8. By default, the internal PHY unit advertises full duplex ability in the Auto-Negotiation process regardless of the duplex setting of the CSMA unit. The CSMA configuration should match the result of the Auto- Negotiation. The selection of duplex operation (full or half) and flow control is done in two levels: MAC and PHY . The MAC duplex selection is done only through CSMA configuration mechanism (in other words, the Configure command from software).
4.5.2 Flow Control
The 82559ER supports IEEE 802.3x frame based flow control frames only in both full duplex and half duplex switched environments. The 82559ER flow control feature is not intended to be used in shared media environments. Flow control is optional in full duplex mode and can be selected through software configuration. There are three modes of flow control that can be selected: frame based transmit flow control, frame based receive flow control, and none. The PHY unit’s duplex and flow control enable can be selected using NWay* Auto-Negotiation algorithm or through the Management Data Interface.
4.5.3 Address Filterin g Modifications
The 82559ER can be configured to ignore one bit when checking for its Individual Address (IA) on incoming receive frames. The address bit, known as the Upper/Lower (U/L) bit, is the second least significant bit of the first byte of the IA. This bit may be used, in some cases, as a priority indication bit. When configured to do so, the 82559ER passes any frame that matches all other 47 address bits of its IA, regardless of the U/L bit value. This configuration only affects the 82559ER specific IA and not multicast, multi-IA or broadcast address filtering. The 82559ER does not attribute any priority to frames with this bit set, it simply passes them to memory regardless of this bit.
4.5.4 Lon g Frame Reception
The 82559ER supports the reception of long frames, specifically frames longer than 1518 bytes, including the CRC, if software sets the Long Receive OK bit in the Configuration command (described in the Software Developer’s Manual). Otherwise, “long” frames are discarded.

4.6 Media Inde pendent Interface (MII) Management Interface
The MII management interface allows the CPU to control the PHY unit via a control register in the 82559ER. This allows the software driver to place the PHY in specific modes such as full duplex, loopback, power down, etc., without the need for specific hardware pins to select the desired mode. This structure allows the 82559ER to query the PHY unit for status of the link. This register is the MDI Control Register and resides at offset 10h in the 82559ER CSR. (The MDI registers are described in detail in Section 9., “PHY Unit Registers” on page 65.) The CPU writes commands to this register and the 82559ER reads or writes the control/status parameters to the PHY unit through the MDI register. Although the 82559ER follows the MII format, the MI bus is not accessible on external pins.
Networking Silicon — GD82559ER 5. GD82559ER Test Port Functionalit y
5.1 Introduction
The 82559ER’s NAND-Tree Test Access Port (TAP) is the access point for test data to and from the device. The port provides the ability to perform basic production level testing. The port pro- vides two functions: 1) The the synchronous IC validation mode used in the production of the device. This mode gives the signals their names (i.e TCK, Testability Port Clock). 2) In addition to the synchronous test mode, the 82559ER supports asynchonous testing modes. These test modes support the validation of connections at the board level.
5.2 As ynchronous Test Mode
Four asynchronous test modes are supported for system level design use. The modes are selected through the use of Test Port input pin in static combinations. The Test Port pins are: TEST, TI, TEXEC and TCK. During normal operation the Test pin must be pulled down through a resistor (pulling Test high enables the test mode). All other Port inputs may have a pull-down at the design- ers discretion.
5.3 Test Function Descri ption
The 82559 TAP mode supports several tests that can be used in board level design. These tests can help in the verification of basic functionality. As well as test the integrity of solder connection on the board. The tests are as follows: 5.4 85/85 The 85/85 test provides the same functionality to the board level designer as the Tristate mode. This mode is normal used during chip the chip burn-in cycling. The 82559ER is placed in this mode during the 85 o/85% humidity test cycling.

6.1.3 100BASE-TX Receive Blocks The receive subsection of the PHY unit accepts 100BASE-TX MLT-3 data on the receive differential pair. Due to the advanced digital signal processing design techniques employed, the PHY unit will accurately receive valid data from Category-5 (CAT5) UTP and Type 1 STP cable of length well in excess of 100 meters.
6.1.3.1 Ada ptive Equalizer
The distorted MLT-3 signal at the end of the wire is restored by the equalizer. The equalizer performs adaptation based on the shape of the received signal, equalizing the signal to meet superior Data Dependent Jitter performance.
6.1.3.2 Receive Clock and Data Recover y
The clock recovery circuit uses advanced digital signal processing technology to compensate for various signal jitter causes. The circuit recovers the 125 MHz clock and data and presents the data to the MLT-3 decoder.
6.1.3.3 MLT-3 Decoder, Descrambler, and Receive Digital Section
The PHY unit first decodes the MLT-3 data; afterwards, the descrambler reproduces the 5B symbols originated in the transmitter. The descrambling is based on synchronization to the transmit 11-bit Linear Feedback Shift Register (LFSR) during idle. The data is decoded at the 4B/5B decoder. Once the 4B symbols are obtained, the PHY unit outputs the receive data to the CSMA unit. 6.1.3.4 100BASE-TX Receive Framin g The PHY unit does not differentiate between the fields of the MAC frame containing preamble, start of frame delimiter, data and CRC. During 100 Mbps reception, the PHY unit differentiates between the idle condition ("L" symbols on the wire) and the preamble or start of frame delimiter. When two non-consecutive bits are 0b within 10 bits (125 Mbps 5B data coding) the PHY unit immediately asserts carrier sense. When the “JK” symbols (“11000, 10001”) are fully recognized, the PHY unit provides the received data to the CSMA unit. If the “JK” symbol is not recognized (“false carrier sense”), the carrier sense is immediately de-asserted and a receive error is indicated. 6.1.3.5 100BASE-TX Receive Error Detection and Reporting In 100BASE-TX mode, the PHY unit can detect errors in receive data in a number of ways. Any of the following conditions is considered an error:
- Link integrity fails in the middle of frame reception.
- The Start of Stream Delimiter (SSD) “JK” symbol is not fully detected after idle.
- An invalid symbol is detected at the 4B/5B decoder.
- Idle is detected in the middle of a frame (before “TR” is detected). When any of the above error conditions occurs, the PHY unit immediately asserts its receive error indication to the CSMA unit. The receive error indication is held active as long as the receive error condition persists on the receive pair.
Networking Silicon — GD82559ER 6.1.4 100BASE-TX Collision Detection 100BASE-TX collisions in half duplex mode only are detected similarly to 10BASE-T collision detection, via simultaneous transmission and reception. 6.1.5 100BASE-TX Link Inte grity and Auto-Negotiation Solution The 82559 Auto-Negotiation function automatically configures the device to the technology, media, and speed to operate with its link partner. Auto-Negotiation is widely described in IEEE specification 802.3u, clause 28. The PHY unit supports 10BASE-T half duplex, 10BASE-T full duplex, 100BASE-TX half duplex, and 100BASE-TX full duplex. The PHY unit has two Physical Media Attachment (PMA) technologies with its link integrity function, 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX.
6.1.5.1 Link Inte grity
In 100BASE-TX, the link integrity function is determined by a stable signal status coming from the TP-PMD block. Signal status is asserted when the PMD detects breaking squelch energy and the right bit error rate according to the ANSI specification.
6.1.5.2 Auto-Ne gotiation
The PHY unit fully supports IEEE 802.3u, clause 28. The technology, 10BASE-T or 100BASE- TX, is determined by the Auto-Negotiation result. Speed and duplex auto-select are functions of Auto-Negotiation. However, these parameters may be manually configured via the MII management interface (MDI registers).
6.1.6 Auto 10/100 Mb ps Speed Selection
The MAC may either allow the PHY unit to automatically select its operating speed or force the PHY into 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps mode. The Management Data Interface (MDI) can control the PHY unit speed mode. The PHY unit auto-select function determines the operation speed of the media based on the link integrity pulses it receives. If no Fast Link Pulses (FLPs) are detected and Normal Link Pulses (NLPs) are detected, the PHY unit defaults to 10 Mbps operation. If the PHY unit detects a speed change, it dynamically changes its transmit clock and receive clock frequencies to the appropriate value. This change takes a maximum of five milliseconds. 6.2 10BASE-T Functionalit y 6.2.1 10BASE-T Transmit Clock Generation The 20 MHz and 10 MHz clocks needed for 10BASE-T are synthesized from the external 25 MHz crystal or oscillator. The PHY unit provides the transmit clock and receive clock to the internal MAC at 2.5 MHz.
GD82559ER — Networkin g Silicon
42 Datasheet
6.2.2 10BASE-T Transmit Blocks 6.2.2.1 10BASE-T Manchester Encoder After the 2.5 MHz clocked data is serialized in a 10 Mbps serial stream, the 20 MHz clock performs the Manchester encoding. The Manchester code always has a mid-bit transition. If the value is 1b then the transition is from low to high. If the value is 0b then the transition is from high to low. The boundary transition occurs only when the data changes from bit to bit. For example, if the value is 10b, then the change is from high to low; if 01b, then the change is from low to high. 6.2.2.2 10BASE-T Driver and Filter Since 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX have different filtration needs, both filters are implemented inside the chip. This allows the two technologies to share the same magnetics. The PHY unit supports both technologies through one pair of TD pins and by externally sharing the same magnetics. In 10 Mbps mode, the PHY unit begins transmitting the serial Manchester bit stream within 3 bit times (300 nanoseconds) after the MAC asserts TXEN. In 10 Mbps mode the line drivers use a pre- distortion algorithm to improve jitter tolerance. The line drivers reduce their drive level during the second half of “wide” (100ns) Manchester pulses and maintain a full drive level during all narrow (50ns) pulses and the first half of the wide pulses. This reduces line overcharging during wide pulses, a major source of jitter. 6.2.3 10BASE-T Receive Blocks 6.2.3.1 10BASE-T Manchester Decoder The PHY unit performs Manchester decoding and timing recovery when in 10 Mbps mode. The Manchester-encoded data stream is decoded from the RD pair to separate Receive Clock and Receive Data from the differential signal. This data is transferred to the CSMA unit at 2.5 MHz/ nibble. The high-performance circuitry of the PHY unit exceeds the IEEE 802.3 jitter requirements. 6.2.3.2 10BASE-T Twisted Pair Ethernet (TPE ) Receive Buffer and Filter In 10 Mbps mode, data is expected to be received on the receive differential pair after passing through isolation transformers. The filter is implemented inside the PHY unit for supporting single magnetics that are shared with the 100BASE-TX side. The input differential voltage range for the Twisted Pair Ethernet (TPE) receiver is greater than 585 mV and less than 3.1 V . The TPE receive buffer distinguishes valid receive data, link test pulses, and the idle condition, according to the requirements of the 10BASE-T standard. The following line activity is determined to be inactive and is rejected:
- Differential pulses of peak magnitude less than 300 mV
- Continuous sinusoids with a differential amplitude less than 6.2 Vpp and frequency less than 2 MHz
- Sine waves of a single cycle duration starting with 0 or 180° phase that have a differential amplitude less than 6.2 Vpp and a frequency of at least 2 MHz and not more than 16 MHz. These single-cycle sine waves are discarded only if they are preceded by 4 bit times (400 nanoseconds) of silence.
Networking Silicon — GD82559ER All other activity is determined to be either data, link test pulses, Auto-Negotiation fast link pulses, or the idle condition. When activity is detected, the carrier sense signal is asserted to the MAC. 6.2.3.3 10BASE-T Error Detection and Re porting In 10 Mbps mode, the PHY unit can detect errors in the receive data. The following condition is considered an error: The receive pair’s voltage level drops to the idle state during reception before the end-of-frame bit is detected (250 nanoseconds without mid-bit transitions). 6.2.4 10BASE-T Collision Detection Collision detection in 10 Mbps mode is indicated by simultaneous transmission and reception. If the PHY unit detects this condition, it asserts a collision indication to the CSMA/CD unit. 6.2.5 10BASE-T Link Inte grity The link integrity in 10 Mbps works with link pulses. The PHY unit senses and differentiates those link pulses from fast link pulses and from 100BASE-TX idles. The 10 Mbps link pulses or normal link pulses are driven in the transmit differential pair line but are 100 ns wide and have levels from 0 V to 5 V . The link beat pulse is also used to determine if the receive pair polarity is reversed. If it is, the polarity is corrected internally. 6.2.6 10BASE-T Jabber Control Function The PHY unit contains a jabber control function that inhibits transmission after a specified time window when enabled. In 10 Mbps mode, the jabber timer is set to a value between 26.2 ms and 39 ms. If the PHY unit detects continuous transmission that is greater than this time period, it prevents further transmissions from onto the wire until it detects that the MAC transmit enable signal has been inactive for at least 314 ms. 6.2.7 10BASE-T Full Du plex The PHY unit supports 10 Mbps full duplex by disabling the collision function, the squelch test, and the carrier sense transmit function. This allows the PHY unit to transmit and receive simultaneously, achieving up to 20 Mbps of network bandwidth. The configuration can be achieved through Auto-Negotiation. Full duplex should only be used in point-to-point connections (no shared media).
6.3 Auto-Ne gotiation Functionality
The PHY unit supports Auto-Negotiation. Auto-Negotiation is an automatic configuration scheme designed to manage interoperability in multifunctional LAN environments. It allows two stations with “N” different modes of communication to establish a common mode of operation. At power- up, Auto-Negotiation automatically establishes a link that takes advantage of an Auto-Negotiation capable device. An Auto-Negotiation capable device can detect and automatically configure its port to take maximum advantage of common modes of operation without user intervention or prior knowledge by either station. The possible common modes of operation are: 100BASE-TX, 100BASE-TX Full Duplex, 10BASE-T, and 10BASE-T Full Duplex.
GD82559ER — Networkin g Silicon
44 Datasheet
6.3.1 Descri ption
Auto-Negotiation selects the fastest operating mode (in other words, the highest common denominator) available to hardware at both ends of the cable. A PHY’s capability is encoded by bursts of link pulses called Fast Link Pulses (FLPs). Connection is established by FLP exchange and handshake during link initialization time. Once the link is established by this handshake, the native link pulse scheme resumes (that is, 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX link pulses). A reset or management renegotiate command (through the MDI interface) will restart the process. To enable Auto-Negotiation, bit 12 of the MDI Control Register must be set. If the PHY unit cannot perform Auto-Negotiation, it will set this bit to a 0 and determine the speed using Parallel Detection. The PHY unit supports four technologies: 100BASE-Tx Full and Half Duplex and 10BASE-T Full and Half Duplex. Since only one technology can be used at a time (after every re-negotiate command), a prioritization scheme must be used to ensure that the highest common denominator ability is chosen. Each bit in this table is set according to what the PHY is capable of supporting. In the case of the 82559’s PHY unit, bits 0, 1, 2, 3, and 5 (10BASE-T, 10BASE-T full duplex, 100BASE-TX, 100BASE-TX full duplex and pause [frame based flow control], respectively) are set. To detect the correct technology, the two register fields, technology ability and technology priority, should be ANDed together to obtain the highest common denominator. This value should then be used to map into a priority resolution table used by the MAC driver to use the appropriate technology.
6.3.2 Parallel Detect and Auto-Ne gotiation
The PHY unit automatically determines the speed of the link either by using Parallel Detect or Auto-Negotiation. Upon a reset, a link status fail, or a Negotiate/Re-negotiate command, the PHY unit inserts a long delay during which no link pulses are transmitted. This period, known as Force_Fail, insures that the PHY unit‘s link partner has gone into a Link Fail state before Auto- Negotiation or Parallel Detection begins. Thus, both sides (PHY unit and PHY unit’s link partner)
Networking Silicon — GD82559ER will perform Auto-Negotiation or Parallel Detection with no data packets being transmitted. Connection is then established either by FLP exchange or Parallel Detection. The PHY unit will look for both FLPs and link integrity pulses. The following diagram illustrates this process.
6.4 LED Descri ption
The PHY unit supports three LED pins to indicate link status, network activity and network speed. Each pin can source 10 mA.
- Link: This LED is off until a valid link has been detected. After a valid link has been detected, the LED will remain on (active-low).
- Activity: This LED blinks on and off when activity is detected on the wire.
- Speed: This LED will be on if a 100BASE-TX link is detected and off if a 10BASE-T link is detected. If the link fails while in Auto-Negotiation, this LED will keep the last valid link state. If 100BASE-TX link is forced this LED will be on, regardless of the link status. This LED will be of if the 10BASE-T link is forced, regardless of the link status. MDI register 27 in Section 9.3.12, “Register 27: PHY Unit Special Control Bit Definitions” on page 71 details the information for LED function mapping and support enhancements. Figure 16 on page 46 provides possible schematic diagrams for configurations using two and three LEDs. Fi gure 15.

7.1.9 PCI Base Address Re gisters
One of the most important functions for enabling superior configurability and ease of use is the ability to relocate PCI devices in address spaces. The 82559ER contains three types of Base Address Registers (BARs). Two are used for memory mapped resources, and one is used for I/O mapping. Each register is 32 bits wide. The least significant bit in the BAR determines whether it represents a memory or I/O space. The figures below show the layout of a BAR for both memory and I/O mapping. After determining this information, power-up software can map the memory and I/O controllers into available locations and proceed with system boot. To do this mapping in a device independent manner, the base registers for this mapping are placed in the predefined header portion of configuration space. Device drivers can then access this configuration space to determine the mapping of a particular device. Fi gure 21. Base Address Register for Memory Mapping Base Address 0 031 4321 Prefetchable Set to 0b in 82559ER Type 00 - locate anywhere in 32-bit address space 01 - locate below 1 Mbyte 10 - locate anywhere in 64-bit address space 11 - reserved Memor y space indicator
GD82559ER — Networkin g Silicon
52 Datasheet
Note: Bit 0 in all base registers is read only and used to determine whether the register maps into memory or I/O space. Base registers that map to memory space must return a 0b in bit 0. Base registers that map to I/O space must return 1b in bit 0. Base registers that map into I/O space are always 32 bits wide with bit 0 hardwired to a 1b, bit 1 is reserved and must return 0b on reads, and the other bits are used to map the device into I/O space. The number of upper bits that a device actually implements depends on how much of the address space the device will respond to. For example, a device that wants a 1 Mbyte memory address space would set the most significant 12 bits of the base address register to be configurable, setting the other bits to 0b. The 82559ER contains BARs for the Control/Status Register (CSR), Flash, and Expansion ROM.
7.1.9.1 CSR Memor y Mapped Base Address Register
The 82559ER requires one BAR for memory mapping. Software determines which BAR, memory or I/O, is used to access the 82559ER CSR registers. The memory space for the 82559ER CSR Memory Mapped BAR is 4 Kbyte. It is marked as prefetchable space and is mapped anywhere in the 32-bit memory address space.
7.1.9.2 CSR I/O Ma pped Base Address Register
The 82559ER requires one BAR for I/O mapping. Software determines which BAR, memory or I.O, is used to access the 82559ER CSR registers. The I/O space for the 82559ER CSR I/O BAR is 64 bytes.
7.1.9.3 Flash Memor y Mapped Base Address Register
The Flash Memory BAR is a Dword register. The 82559ER physically supports up to a 128 Kbyte Flash device, and requests a 128Kbyte window. The 82559ER always claims a Flash memory window, regardless of whether or not a Flash device is connected (i.e. Flash Base Address Register cannot be disabled).
7.1.9.4 Ex pansion ROM Base Address Register
The Expansion ROM BAR is a Dword register and supports a 128 Kbyte memory via the 82559ER local bus. The Expansion ROM BAR can be disabled by setting the Boot Disable bit of the EEPROM (word AH, bit 11). The 82559ER requests a 1MB window for expansion ROM. If the Boot Disable bit is set, the 82559ER returns a 0b for all bits in this address register, avoiding request of memory allocation for this space. Fi gure 22.
