SOFTWARE DRIVER AND HARDWARE SEQUENCE FLOW

10.1

Software Driver and Hardware Sequence Flow for Power Management

This section describes the sequence of events and the interaction between the Host Driver and the Ethernet controller

to perform power management. The Ethernet controller has the ability to reduce its power consumption when the Device

is not required to receive or transmit Ethernet Packets.

Power Management is obtained by disabling the EPH clocks, including the Clocks derived from the Internal PHY block

to reduce internal switching, this reducing current consumption.

The Host interface however, will still be accessible. As discussed in Table 10-1 and Table 10-2, the tables describe the

interaction between the EPH and Host driver allowing the Device to transition from low power state to normal function-

ality and vice versa.

TABLE 10-1:

TYPICAL FLOW OF EVENTS FOR PLACING DEVICE IN LOW POWER MODE

S/W Driver

Controller Function

Disable Transmitter – Clear the TXENA bit of the

Transmit Control Register

Ethernet MAC finishes packet currently being

transmitted.

Remove and release all TX completion packet

numbers on the TX completion FIFO.

Disable Receiver – Clear the RXEN bit of the

Receive Control Register.

The receiver completes receiving the current frame, if

any, and then goes idle. Ethernet MAC will no longer

receive any packets.

Process all Received packets and Issue a Remove

and Release command for each respective RX

packet buffer.

RX and TX completion FIFO’s are now Empty and

all MMU packet numbers are now free.

Disable Interrupt sources – Clear the Interrupt

Status Register

Save Device Context – Save all Specific Register

Values set by the driver.

Set PDN bit in PHY MI Register 0 to 1

Note:

This bit must not be set when the device is

in external PHY mode.

The internal PHY entered in powerdown mode, the

TP outputs are in high impedance state.

Write to the “EPH Power EN” Bit located in the

configuration register, Bank 1 Offset 0.

Ethernet MAC gates the RX Clock, TX clock derived

from the Internal PHY. The EPH Clock is also

disabled.

The Ethernet MAC is now in low power mode. The

Host may access all Runtime IO mapped registers.

All IO registers are still accessible. However, the

Host should not read or write to the registers with

the exception of:

Configuration Register

Control Register

Bank Register
