Table 53: Ethernet General Control register bit definition
ENDEC mode and NS7520 pins
Table 54 shows the relationship between the lower bits in the Ethernet General
Control register and the NS7520 pins that they control. The NS7520 pins are
controlled by these bits only when the MODE field (D15:14) is set to ENDEC.

Insert transmit source address
When set, forces the MAC to automatically insert the
Ethernet source MAC address into the Ethernet transmit
packet. The MAC address information is provided by the
data configured in the Station Address registers (SA1, SA2,
SA3).

When ITXA is cleared, the 7

in the MAC Address register.
ENDEC media control bits
Used only when the MODE field is configured for ENDEC
mode. In this configuration, each register bit is mapped to
NS7520 pins, allowing the software to manipulate control
signals on an external ENDEC PHY device.
