DATASHEET
4.2.3 Interrupt Status Register (INT_STS)
This register contains the current status of the generated interrupts. Some of these interrupts are also
cleared through this register.
Offset: 00C8h Size: 32 bits
BITS DESCRIPTION TYPE DEFAULT
31:16 RESERVED RO -
15 Software Interrupt (SW_INT)
This bit latches high upon the SW_INT_EN bit toggling from a 0 to 1. The
interrupt is cleared by writing a ‘1’. Writing ‘0’ has no effect. R/WC 0b
14 RESERVED RO -
13 Master Bus Error Interrupt (MBERR_INT)
When set, indicates DMA Controller has detected an error during descriptor
read, or during a transmit data read operation. The interrupt is cleared by
writing a ‘1’ to this bit. Writing a ‘0’ has no effect.
To guarantee a clean recovery from a MBERR_INT condition, a software
reset must be performed by setting the
Software Reset (SRST) bit of the
Bus Mode Register (BUS_MODE) . Alternatively, the condition may be
cleared by a hardware reset.
R/WC 0b
12 Slave Bus Error Interrupt (SBERR_INT)
When set, indicates that the PCI Target Interface has detected an error
when the Host attempted to access the LAN9420/LAN9420i CSR. The
interrupt is cleared by writing a ‘1’ to this bit. Writing a ‘0’ has no effect.
To guarantee a clean recovery from a SBERR_INT condition, a software
reset must be performed by setting the
Software Reset (SRST) bit of the
Bus Mode Register (BUS_MODE) . Alternatively, the condition may be
cleared by a hardware reset
R/WC 0b
11:7 RESERVED RO -
6:4 GPIO [2:0] (GPIOx_INT)
Interrupts are generated from the GPIO’s. These interrupts are configured
through the GPIO_CFG register. Refer to
4.2.5, "General Purpose
Input/Output Configuration Register (GPIO_CFG)," on page 92 for more
information. These interrupts are cleared by writing a ‘1’ to the
corresponding bits. Writing ‘0’ has no effect.
R/WC 000b
3 GP Timer (GPT_INT)
This interrupt is issued when the General Purpose Timer wraps from
maximum count to zero. This interrupt is cleared by writing a ‘1’ to this bit.
Writing ‘0’ has no effect. R/WC 0b
2 PHY Interrupt (PHY_INT)
Indicates assertion of the PHY Interrupt. The PHY interrupt is cleared by
clearing the interrupt source in the PHY Interrupt Status Register. Refer to
Section 4.5.11, "Interrupt Source Flag," on page 146 for more information
on this interrupt. Writing to this bit has no effect.
