6. Register Descriptions
This section describes the functions and usage of the registers available in the RTL8201CP.
In this section the following abbreviations are used:
RO: Read Only
RW: Read/Write
6.1. Register 0 Basic Mode Control Register
Table 9. Register 0 Basic Mode Control Register
Description
This bit sets the status and control registers of the PHY in a default
state. This bit is self-clearing.
1: Software reset
0: Normal operation
This bit enables loopback of transmit data nibbles TXD3:0 to the
receive data path.
1: Enable loopback
0: Normal operation
This bit sets the network speed.
1: 100Mbps
0: 10Mbps
After completing auto negotiation, this bit will reflect the Speed status.
1: 100Base-T
0: 10Base-T)
When 100Base-FX mode is enabled, this bit=1 and is read only.
This bit enables/disables the NWay auto-negotiation function.
1: Enable auto-negotiation; bits 0:13 and 0:8 will be ignored.
0: Disable auto-negotiation; bits 0:13 and 0:8 will determine the link
speed and the data transfer mode, respectively.
When 100Base-FX mode is enabled, this bit=0 and is read only.
Power Down This bit turns down the power of the PHY chip, including the internal
crystal oscillator circuit. The MDC, MDIO is still alive for accessing
the MAC.
1: Power down
0: Normal operation
