BCM5722
GPIO
The use of GPIO pins for power management is design-specific, though Broadcom-delivered drivers use GPIO pins in the
manner listed in
Table 52
and
for a NIC design; it is not applicable to LAN-on-Motherboard (LOM) designs.

shows the power supply to various power pins on the BCM5722 Ethernet controller. This table assumes that host
software has switched power regulators using GPIO pins 0, 1, and 2.

Certain functional blocks in the MAC architecture should be powered down before a transition to D3 ACPI state. MAC clock
generators/PLLs drive transistor level logic, which switch states on every clock pulse. Transistor level switching consumes
power (mW). Software should selectively disable clocking to non-essential functional blocks. Software must set the
Enable_Clock_Control_Register bit in the Miscellaneous Host Control register (see
(Offset 0x68)" on page
204); the assertion of this bit allows host software to configure the PCI clock control register. The
following clock bits should be configured in the PCI Clock Control register (see
on page
207):

Select alternate clock—the 133-MHz PLL is not used as reference clock.
