DATASHEET
5.2.3 Ethernet PHY Interrupts
The Port 1 and Port 2 PHYs each provide a set of identical interrupt sources. The top-level PHY_INT1
(bit 26) and PHY_INT2 (bit 27) of the Interrupt Status Register (INT_STS) provides indication that a
PHY interrupt event occurred in the Port x PHY Interrupt Source Flags Register
(PHY_INTERRUPT_SOURCE_x).
Port 1 and Port 2 PHY interrupts are enabled/disabled via their respective Port x PHY Interrupt Mask
Register (PHY_INTERRUPT_MASK_x). The source of a PHY interrupt can be determined and cleared
via the Port x PHY Interrupt Source Flags Register (PHY_INTERRUPT_SOURCE_x). The Port 1 and
Port 2 PHYs are each capable of generating unique interrupts based on the following events:
ENERGYON Activated
Auto-Negotiation Complete
Remote Fault Detected
Link Down (Link Status Negated)
Auto-Negotiation LP Acknowledge
Parallel Detection Fault
Auto-Negotiation Page Received
In order for a Port 1 or Port 2 interrupt event to trigger the external IRQ interrupt pin, the desired PHY
interrupt event must be enabled in the corresponding Port x PHY Interrupt Mask Register
(PHY_INTERRUPT_MASK_x), the PHY_INT1(Port 1 PHY) and/or PHY_INT2(Port 2 PHY) bits of the
Interrupt Enable Register (INT_EN) must be set, and IRQ output must be enabled via bit 8 (IRQ_EN)
of the Interrupt Configuration Register (IRQ_CFG).
For additional details on the Ethernet PHY interrupts, refer to Section 7.2.8.1, "PHY Interrupts," on
page 94.
5.2.4 GPIO Interrupts
Each GPIO[11:0] of the LAN9311/LAN9311i is provided with its own interrupt. The top-level GPIO (bit
12) of the Interrupt Status Register (INT_STS) provides indication that a GPIO interrupt event occurred
in the General Purpose I/O Interrupt Status and Enable Register (GPIO_INT_STS_EN). The General
Purpose I/O Interrupt Status and Enable Register (GPIO_INT_STS_EN) provides enabling/disabling
and status of each GPIO[11:0] interrupt.
In order for a GPIO interrupt event to trigger the external IRQ interrupt pin, the desired GPIO interrupt
must be enabled in the General Purpose I/O Interrupt Status and Enable Register
(GPIO_INT_STS_EN), bit 12 (GPIO_EN) of the Interrupt Enable Register (INT_EN) must be set, and
IRQ output must be enabled via bit 8 (IRQ_EN) of the Interrupt Configuration Register (IRQ_CFG).
For additional details on the GPIO interrupts, refer to Section 13.2.2, "GPIO Interrupts," on page 164.
5.2.5 Host MAC Interrupts
The top-level Interrupt Status Register (INT_STS), and Interrupt Enable Register (INT_EN) provide the
status and enabling/disabling of multiple Host MAC related interrupts. All Host MAC interrupts are
monitored and configured directly within these two registers. The following Host MAC related interrupt
events are supported:
TX Stopped
RX Stopped
RX Dropped Frame Counter Halfway
TX IOC
RX DMA
