Two Port 10/100 Managed Ethernet Switch with 16-Bit Non-PCI CPU Interface
Datasheet
SMSC LAN9311/LAN9311i 289 Revision 1.4 (08-19-08)
DATASHEET
14.4.2.1 Port x PHY Basic Control Register (PHY_BASIC_CONTROL_x)
This read/write register is used to configure the Port x PHY.
Note: This register is re-written in its entirety by the EEPROM Loader following the release of reset
or a RELOAD command. Refer to Section 10.2.4, "EEPROM Loader," on page 150 for
additional information.
Index (decimal): 0 Size: 16 bits
BITS DESCRIPTION TYPE DEFAULT
15 Reset (PHY_RST)
When set, this bit resets all the Port x PHY registers to their default state,
except those marked as NASR type. This bit is self clearing.
0: Normal operation
1: Reset

Loopback (PHY_LOOPBACK)
This bit enables/disables the loopback mode. When enabled, transmissions
from the switch fabric are not sent to network. Instead, they are looped back
into the switch fabric.
Note: If loopback is enabled during half-duplex operation, then the
Enable Receive Own Transmit bit in the Port x MAC Receive
Configuration Register (MAC_RX_CFG_x) must be set for the
specified port. Otherwise, the switch fabric will ignore receive
activity when transmitting in half-duplex mode.
0: Loopback mode disabled (normal operation)
1: Loopback mode enabled
R/W 0b
13
Speed Select LSB (PHY_SPEED_SEL_LSB)
This bit is used to set the speed of the Port x PHY when the Auto-
Negotiation (PHY_AN) bit is disabled.
0: 10 Mbps
1: 100 Mbps
R/W Note 14.49
12
Auto-Negotiation (PHY_AN)
This bit enables/disables Auto-Negotiation. When enabled, the Speed Select
LSB (PHY_SPEED_SEL_LSB) and Duplex Mode (PHY_DUPLEX) bits are
overridden.
0: Auto-Negotiation disabled
1: Auto-Negotiation enabled
R/W Note 14.50
11
Power Down (PHY_PWR_DWN)
This bit controls the power down mode of the Port x PHY. After this bit is
cleared the PHY may auto-negotiate with it’s partner station. This process
can take up to a few seconds to complete. Once Auto-Negotiation is
complete, bit 5 (Auto-Negotiation Complete) of the Port x PHY Basic Status
Register (PHY_BASIC_STATUS_x) will be set.
Note: The PHY_AN bit of this register must be cleared before setting this
bit.
0: Normal operation
1: General power down mode
