Description
RW
1 = write bits [9:0]
0 = read bits [9:0]
RW
Shadow Register Selector
RW
1 = enable dual SerDes auto-detect medium
(switch between SGMII->fiber and SGMII-
>copper)
0 = disable dual SerDes auto-detect medium
RW
1 = invert fiber sd from pin (active low pin)
0 = normal operation (active high pin)
RW
1 = drive transmit led active low when fiber is
selected, inactive when copper selected
0 = normal transmit led operation
RW
1 = use fiber transmit, receive, and link for leds
whenever fiber mode is selected via register 1ch
shadow 1fh bits [2:1]
0 = always use copper transmit, receive, and
link for leds regardless of the mode selected
RW
1 = fiber signal detect from pin is ANDed with
sync_status in 1000-x and link in 100-fx mode.
(Used only for auto-detect medium and dual
SerDes auto-detection.)
0 = normal operation
RW
1 = power-down fiber when signal detect
is inactive (wake-up for 42ms every 5 seconds
to transmit code words; see register 1ch
shadow 17h [8:7] for different time options).
0 = normal operation
RW
1 = force signal detect enable to 1 in auto-detect
medium block. Used for test purposes only!
0 = normal operation
RW
1 = fiber selected when no medium active
0 = copper selected when no medium active
RW
1 = fiber selected when both medium active
0 = copper selected when both medium active
RW
1 = enable auto-detect medium
(switch between GMII/RGMII->copper or
GMII/RGMII->fiber)
0 = disable auto-detect medium
