15.7.16 EPHYSCR Register (Address = 0x11) [reset = 0x103]
Ethernet PHY Specific Control- MR17 (EPHYSCR)
This register implements the PHY Specific Control register. This register allows access to general
functionality inside the PHY to enable operation in reduced power modes and control the interrupt
mechanism.
EPHYSCR is shown in
and described in

Description

DISCLK
R/W
0x0
Disable CLK. Clocks can be disabled only in IEEE power down
mode.
0x0 = Normal mode of operation
0x1 = Disable internal clocks
14
PSEN
R/W
0x0
Power Saving Modes Enable.
0x0 = Normal mode of operation
0x1 = Enable power saving modes
13-12
PSMODE
R/W
0x0
Power Saving Modes.
0x0 = Normal: Normal operation mode. PHY is fully functional
0x1 = IEEE Power DownLow Power mode that shuts down all
internal circuitry other than SMI functionality. Power could be
dropped further by setting high DISCLK bit in this register and
disabling internal clocks circuitries.
0x2 = Active SleepLow Power Active Wake-On-LAN (WOL) mode
that shuts down all internal circuitry other than SMI and energy
detect functionality. In this mode the PHY sends NLP every 1.4
seconds to wake up the link-partner. Automatic power-up is done
when link partner is detected.
0x3 = Passive SleepLow Power WOL mode that shuts down all
internal circuitry besides SMI and energy detect functionality.
Automatic power-up is done when link partner is detected.

SBPYASS
R/W
0x1
Scrambler Bypass.
0x0 = Scrambler bypass disabled.
0x1 = Scrambler bypass enabled.

LBFIFO
R/W
0x0
Loopback FIFO Depth. This FIFO is used to adjust RX (recovered)
clock rate to TX clock rate. FIFO depth must be set based on
expected maximum packet size and clock accuracy. Default value
sets to 5 nibbles.
0x0 = Four nibble FIFO
0x1 = Five nibble FIFO
0x2 = Six nibble FIFO
0x3 = Eight nibble FIFO
