7 National Compati-
bility Mode
Read/Write 1 When set, registers and bits that are not compatible
with the National DP83840 are disabled and writes to
these registers are ignored.
6 LED3 Blink Enable Read/Write 0 When set, LED3
will blink during auto-negotiation
and will indicate Link Good status upon completion of
auto-negotiation. When clear, LED3
indicates Link
Good status only.
Note: This bit is disabled, and writes to this bit are
ignored when the National Compatibility Mode bit (bit
7) is set.
5 Enable LT/10 Read/Write 1 When set, this bit enables the transmission of link
pulses.
When clear, link pulses are disabled and a good link
condition is forced. If link pulses are disabled during
100 Mb/s operation with auto-negotiation enabled,
the CS8952 will go into 10 Mb/s mode. If operating in
100 Mb/s mode with no auto-negotiation, then clear-
ing this bit has no effect.
4 SQE Enable Read/Write Reset to the logic
inverse of the
value on the
REPEATER pin.
When set, and if the CS8952 is in half-duplex mode,
this bit enables the 10BASE-T SQE function. When
the part is in repeater mode, this bit is cleared and
may not be set.
3 Reserved Read Only 1 This bit should be read as a don’t care and, when
written, should be written to 1.
2 Low Rx Squelch Read/Write 0 When clear, the 10BASE-T receiver squelch thresh-
olds are set to levels defined by the ISO/IEC 8802-3
specification. When set, the thresholds are reduced
by approximately 6 dB. This is useful for operating
with “quiet” cables that are longer than 100 meters.
1 Polarity Disable Read/Write 0 The 10BASE-T receiver automatically determines
the polarity of the received signal at the RXD+/RXD-
input. When this bit is clear, the polarity is corrected,
if necessary. When set, no effort is made to correct
the polarity. Polarity correction will only be performed
during 10BASE-T packet reception.
Note: This bit is disabled, and writes to this bit are
ignored when the National Compatibility Mode bit (bit
7) is set.
