FIGURE 9: Example Wake Packet
The IP100A LF also supports Magic Packet™ technology developed by Advanced Micro Devices to
allow remote wake-up of a sleeping station on a network via transmission of a special frame. Once the
IP100A LF has been placed in Magic Packet mode and put to sleep, it scans all incoming frames
addressed to it for a data sequence consisting of 16 consecutive repetitions of its own 48-bit Ethernet
MAC StationAddress. This sequence can be located anywhere within the frame, but must be preceded
by a synchronization stream.
The synchronization stream is defined as 6 bytes of 0xFF. For example, if the MAC address
programmed into the StationAddress register is 0x11:22:33:44:55:66, then the IP100A LF would be
scanning for the frame data shown in Figure 10.
