• CLK: MDC clock divider

Set according to system clock speed. This determines by what number system clock is divided to generate MDC. For con-
formance with 802.3, MDC must not exceed 2.5MHz (MDC is only active during MDIO read and write operations).

• RTY: Retry test

Must be set to zero for normal operation. If set to one, the back off between collisions is always one slot time. Setting this
bit to one helps testing the too many retries condition. Also used in the pause frame tests to reduce the pause counters
decrement time from 512 bit times, to every

rx_clk

cycle.

• PAE: Pause Enable

When set, transmission pauses when a valid pause frame is received.

• RBOF: Receive Buffer Offset

Indicates the number of bytes by which the received data is offset from the start of the first receive buffer.

• RLCE: Receive Length field Checking Enable

When set, frames with measured lengths shorter than their length fields are discarded. Frames containing a type ID in
bytes 13 and 14 — length/type ID

=

0600 — are not be counted as length errors.

• DRFCS: Discard Receive FCS

When set, the FCS field of received frames are not be copied to memory.

• EFRHD:

Enable Frames to be received in half-duplex mode while transmitting.

• IRXFCS: Ignore RX FCS

When set, frames with FCS/CRC errors are not rejected and no FCS error statistics are counted. For normal operation, this
bit must be set to 0.
