Ethernet General Control Register #2
Address: A060 0004
Register
D10 R/W RXALIGN 0 Align RX data
0 Standard receive format. The data block immediately
follows the 14-byte header block.
1 The receiver inserts a 2-byte padding between the 14-
byte header and the data block, causing longword
alignment for both the header and data blocks.
D09 R/W MAC_HRST 1 MAC host interface soft reset
0 Restore MAC, STAT, SAL, RX_WR, and TX_RD to
normal operation.
1 Reset MAC, STAT, programmable registers in SAL,
RX_WR, and TX_RD. Keep high for minimum of
5μsec to guarantee that all functions get reset.
D08 R/W ITXA 0 Insert transmit source address
0 Source address for Ethernet transmit frame taken from
data in TX_FIFO.
1 Insert the MAC Ethernet source address into the
Ethernet transmit frame source address field.
Set to force the MAC to automatically insert the Ethernet
MAC source address into the Ethernet transmit frame
source address. The SA1, SA2, and SA3 registers provide
the address information. When the ITXA bit is cleared, the
Ethernet MAC source address is taken from the data in the
TX_FIFO.
D07 R/W RXRAM 1 RX FIFO RAM access
0 CPU access to the RX FIFO RAM is disabled
1 CPU access to the RX FIFO RAM is enabled
D06:00 N/A Reserved N/A N/A
