The 82559ER is part of Intel's second generation family of fully integrated 10BASE-T/100BASETX LAN solutions. The 82559ER consists of both the Media Access Controller (MAC) and the
physical layer (PHY) combined into a single component solution. 82559 family members build on
the basic functionality of the 82558 and contain power management enhancements.
The 82559ER is a 32-bit PCI controller that features enhanced scatter-gather bus mastering
capabilities which enables the 82559ER to perform high-speed data transfers over the PCI bus.The
82559ER bus master capabilities enable the compo nent to process high-level commands and
perform multiple operations, thereby off-loading communication tasks from the system CPU. Two
large transmit and receive FIFOs of 3 Kbytes each help prevent data underruns and overruns,
allowing the 82559ER to transmit data with minimum interframe spacing (IFS).
The 82559ER can operate in either full duplex or half duplex mode. In full duplex mode the
82559ER adheres to the IEEE 802.3x Flow Control specification. Half duplex performance is
enhanced by a proprietary collision reductio n mechanism.

Silicon — GD82559ER
The 82559ER includes a simple PHY interface to the wire transformer at rates of 10BASE-T and
100BASE-TX, and Auto-Negotiation capability for speed, duplex, and flow con trol. These features
and others reduce cost, real estate, and design complexity.
The 82559ER also includes an interface to a serial (4-pin) EEPROM and a parallel interface to a
128 Kbyte Flash memory. The EEPROM provides power-on initialization for hardware and
software configuration parameters

2.GD82559ER Architectural Overview
Figure 1 is a high level block diagram of the 82559ER. It is divided into four main subsystems: a
parallel subsystem, a FIFO subsystem, the 10/100 Mbps Carrier-Sense Multiple Access with
Collision Detect (CSMA/CD) unit, and the 10/10 0 Mbps physical layer (PHY) unit.

2.1Parallel Subsystem Overview
The parallel subsystem is broken down into several functional blocks: a PCI bus master interface, a
micromachine processing unit and its corresponding microcode ROM, and a PCI Target Control/
Flash/EEPROM interface. The parallel subsystem also interfaces to the FIFO subsystem, passing
data (such as transmit, receive, and configuration data) and command and status parameters
between these two blocks.
The PCI bus master interface provides a complete glueless interface to a PCI bus and is compliant
with the PCI Bus Specification, Revision 2.2. The 82559ER provides 32 bits of addressing and
data, as well as the complete control interface to operate on a PCI bus. As a PCI target, it follows
the PCI configuration format which allows all accesses to the 82559ER to be automatically
mapped into free memory and I/O space upon initialization of a PCI system. For processing of
transmit and receive frames, the 82559ER operates as a master on the PCI bus, initiating zero wait
state transfers for accessing these data parameters.

Interface
The 82559ER Control/Status Register Block is part of the PCI target element. The Control/Status
Register block consists of the following 82559ER internal control registers: System Control Block
(SCB), PORT, Flash Control, EEPROM Control, and Management Data Interface (MDI) Control.
The micromachine is an embedded processing unit contained in the 82559ER. The micromachine
accesses the 82559ER microcode ROM working its way through the opcodes (or instructions)
contained in the ROM to perform its function s. Parameters acce ssed from memory such as po inters
to data buffers are also used by the micromachine during the processing of transmit or receive
frames by the 82559ER. A typical micromachine function is to transfer a data buffer pointer field
to the 82559ER DMA unit for direct access to the data buffer. The micromachine is divided into
two units, Receive Unit and Command Unit which includes transmit functions. These two units
Datasheet

GD82559ER — Networking Silicon
operate independently. Control is switched between the two units according to the microcode
instruction flow . The indepe ndence of the Receive and Command units in the micromachine allows
the 82559ER to interleave commands and receive incoming frames, with no real-time CPU
intervention.
The 82559ER contains an interface to an external Flash memory, and external serial EEPROM.
These two interfaces are multiplexed. The Flash interface, which could also be used to connect to
any standard 8-bit device, provides up to 128 Kbytes of addressing to the Flash. Both read and
write accesses are supported. The Flash may be used for remote boot functions, network statistical
and diagnostic s functions, and manage ment functions. The Fl ash is mapped into host system
memory (anywhere within the 32-bit memory address space) for software accesses. It is also
mapped into an available boot expansion ROM location during boot time of the system. More
information on the Flash interface is detailed in Section 4.3, “Parallel Flash Interface” on page 28.
The EEPROM is used to store relevant information for a LAN connection such as node address, as
well as board manufacturing and configuration information. Both read and write accesses to the
EEPROM are supported by the 82559ER. Information on the EEPROM interface is detailed in
Section 4.4, “Serial EEPROM Interface” on page 28.
2.2FIFO Subsystem Overview
The 82559ER FIFO subsystem consists of a 3 Kbyte transmit FIFO and 3 Kbyte receive FIFO.
Each FIFO is unidirectional and independent of the other. The FIFO subsystem serves as the
interface between the 82559ER parallel side an d the serial CSMA/CD unit. It provides a temporary
buffer storage area for frames as they are either being received or transmitted by the 82559ER,
which improves performance:
•
Transmit frames can be queued within the transmit FIFO, allowing back-to-back transmission
within the minimum Interframe Spacing (IFS).
•
The storage area in the FIFO allows the 82559ER to withstand long PCI bus latencies without
losing incoming data or corrupting outgoing data.
•
The 82559ER transmit FIFO threshold allows the transmit start threshold to be tuned to
eliminate underruns while concurrent transmits are being performed (i.e. pending transmits
will not be affected by the change in FIFO threshold).
•
The FIFO subsection allows extended PCI burst accesses with zero wait states to or from the
82559ER for both transmit and receive frames. This is because such the transfer is to the FIFO
storage area, rather than directly to the serial link.
•
Transmissions resulting in errors (collision detection or data underrun) are retransmitted
directly from the 82559ER FIFO, therey increasing performance and eliminating the need to
re-access this data from the host system.
•
Incoming runt receive frames (frames that are less than the legal minimum frame size) can be
discarded automatically by the 82559ER without transferri ng this faulty data to the host
system, and without host intervention.
•
Bad Frames resolution can be selectively left to the 82559ER, or under software control.

2.310/100 Mbps Serial CSMA/CD Unit Overview
The CSMA/CD unit of the 82559ER all ows it t o be conn ect ed to either a 10 or 100 Mbps Ethern et
network. The CSMA/CD unit performs all of the functions of the 802.3 protocol such as frame
formatting, frame stripping, collision handling, deferral to link traf fic, etc. The CSMA/CD unit can
also be placed in a full-duplex mode, which allows simultaneous transmission and reception of
frames.
2.410/100 Mbps Physical Layer Unit
The Physical Layer (PHY) unit of the 82559ER allows connection to either a 10 or 100 Mbps
Ethernet network. The PHY unit supports Auto-Negotiation for 100BASE-TX Full Duplex,
100BASE-TX Half Duplex, 10BASE-T Full Duplex, and 10BASE-T Half Duplex. It also supports
three LED pins to indicate link status, network activity, and speed.The 82559ER does not support
external PHY devices and does not expose its internal MII bus.

Description
4.182559ER Initialization
The 82559ER has four sources for initialization. They are listed according to their precedence:
1. ALTRST# Signal
2. PCI RST# Signal
3. Software Reset (Software Command)
4. Selective Reset (Software Command)
4.1.1Initialization Effects on 82559ER Units
The following table shows the effect of each of the different initialization sources on major
portions of the 82559ER. The initialization sources are listed in order of precedence. For example,
any resource that is initialized by the Software Reset is also initialized by the D3 to D0 transition
and ALTRST# and PCI RST# but not necessarily by the selective reset.

4.2PCI Interface
4.2.182559ER Bus Operations
After configuration, the 82559ER is ready for normal operation. As a Fast Ethernet controller, the
role of the 82559ER is to access transmitted data or deposit received data. In both cases the
82559ER, as a bus master device, will initiate memory cycles via the PCI bus to fetch or deposit
the required data.
To perform these actions, the 82559ER is controlled and examined by the CPU via its control and
status structures and registers. Some of these control and status structures reside in the 82559ER
and some reside in system memory. For access to the 82559ER’s Control/Status Registers (CSR),
the 82559ER acts as a slave (in other words, a target device). The 82559ER serves as a slave also
while the CPU accesses its 128 Kbyte Flash buffer or its EEPROM. Section 4.2.1.1 describes the
82559ER slave operati o n. It is followed by a description of the 82559E R o perat ion as a bus master
(initiator) in Section 4.2.1.2, “82559ER Bus Master Operation” on page 18.
4.2.1.182559ER Bus Slave Operation
The 82559ER serves as a target device in one of the following cases:
•
CPU accesses to the 82559ER System Control Block (SCB) Control/Status Registers (CSR)
•
CPU accesses to the EEPROM through its CSR
•
CPU accesses to the 82559ER PORT address via the CSR
•
CPU accesses to the MDI control register in the CSR
•
CPU accesses to the Flash control register in the CSR
•
CPU accesses to the 128 Kbyte Flash
The CSR and the Flash buffer are considered by the 82559ER as two totally separated memory
spaces. The 82559ER provides separate Base Address Registers (BAR s) in the configu ration space
to distinguish between them. The size of the CSR memory space is 4 Kbyte in the memory space
and 64 bytes in the I/O space. The 82559ER treats accesses to these memory spaces differently.
4.2.1.1.1Control/Status Register (CSR) Accesses
The 82559ER supports zero wait-state single-cycle memory or I/O-mapped accesses to its CSR
space. Separate BARs request 4 Kbytes of memory space and 64 bytes of I/O space to accomplish
this. Based on its needs, the software driver will use either memory or I/O mapping to access these
registers. The 4 Kbytes of CSR space the 82559ER requests include the following elements:
•
System Control Block (SCB) reg isters
•
PORT register
•
Flash control register
•
EEPROM control register
•
MDI control register
•
Flow control registers

disconnect by asserting the STOP# signal. The CPU can insert wait states by de-asserting IRDY#

controls the TRDY# signal and asserts it from the data access. The 82559ER allows the CPU to
issue only one I/O write cycle to the Control/Status Registers, generating a disconnect by asserting
the STOP# signal. This is true for both memory mapped and I/O mapped accesses.
4.2.1.1.2Flash Buffer Accesses
The CPU accesses to the Flash buffer are very slow. For this reason the 82559ER issues a targetdisconnect at the first data access. The 82559ER asserts the STOP# signal to indicate a targetdisconnect. The figures below illustrate memory CPU read and write accesses to the 128 Kbyte

The 82559ER responds with a Retry to any configuration cycle accessing the 82559ER before the
completion of the automatic read of the EEPROM. The 82559ER m a y continue to Retry any
configuration accesses until the EEPROM read is complete. The 82559ER does not enforce the
rule that the retried master must attempt to access the same address again to complete any delayed
transaction. Any master access to the 82559ER after the completion of the EEPROM read will be
honored. Figure 6 depicts the operation of a Retry cycle.

ure 8. Memory Write Burst Cycle
The CPU provides the 82559ER with action commands and pointers to the data buffers that reside
in host main memory. The 82559ER independently manages these structures and initiates burst
memory cycles to transfer data to and from them. The 82559ER uses the Memory Read Multiple
(MR Multiple) command for burst accesses to data buffers and the Memory Read Line (MR Line)
command for burst accesses to control structures. For all write accesses to the control structure, the
82559ER uses the Memory Write (MW) command. For write accesses to data structure, the
82559ER may use either the Memory Write or Memory Write and Invalidate (MWI) commands.
Read Accesses:
The 82559ER performs block transfers from host system memory to perform
frame transmission on the serial link. In this case, the 82559ER initiates zero wait state memory
read burst cycles for these accesses. The length of a burst is bounded by the system and the
82559ER’s internal FIFO. The length of a read burst may also be bounded by the value of the
Transmit DMA Maximum Byte Count in the Configure command. The Transmit DMA Maximum

4.2.1.2.1Memory Write and Invalidate
The 82559ER has four Direct Memory Access (DMA) channels. Of these four channels, the
Receive DMA is used to deposit the large number of data bytes received from the link into system
memory. The Receive DMA uses both the Memory Write (MW) and the Memory Write and
Invalidate (MWI) commands. To use MWI, the 82559ER must guarantee the following:
Datasheet
Networkin
g
1. Minimum transfer of one cache line
2. Active byte enable bits (or BE#[3:0] are all low) during MWI access
3. The 82559ER may cross the cache line boundary only if it intends to transfer the next cache
line too.
To ensure the above conditions, the 82559ER may use the MWI command only if the following
conditions hold:
1. The Cache Line Size (CLS) written in the CLS register during PCI configuration is 8 or 16
Dwords.
2. The accessed address is cache line aligned.
3. The 82559ER has at least 8 or 16 Dwords of data in its receive FIFO.
4. There are at least 8 or 16 Dwords of data space left in the system memory buffer.
5. The MWI Enable bit in the PCI Configuration Co mman d register, bit 4, should is set to 1b.
6. The MWI Enable bit in the 82559ER Config ure command should is set to 1b. (Details on the
Configure command are described in the
If any one of the above conditions does not hold, the 8 2559ER will use the MW command. If a
MWI cycle has started and one of the conditions is no longer valid (for example, the data space in
the memory buffer is now less than CLS), then the 82559ER terminates the MWI cycle at the end
of the cache line. The next cycle will be either a MW or MWI cycle depending on the conditions
listed above.
Software Developer’s Manual
Silicon — GD82559ER
.)
If the 82559ER started a MW cycle and reached a cache line boundary, it either continues or
terminates the cycle depending on the Terminate Write on Cache Line configuration bit of the
82559ER Configure command (byte 3, bit 3). If this bit is set, the 82559ER terminates the MW
cycle and attempts to start a new cycle. The new cycle is a MWI cycle if this bit is set and all of the
above listed conditions are met. If the bit is not set, the 82559ER continues the MW cycle across
the cache line boundary if required. (Details on the Configure command are described in the
Software Developer’s Manual
.)
4.2.1.2.2Read Align
The Read Align feature enhances the 82559ER’s performance in cache line oriented systems. In
these particular systems, starting a PCI transaction on a non-cache line aligned address may cause
low performance.
T o resolve this performance anomaly, the 82559ER attempts to terminate transmit DMA cycles on
a cache line boundary and start the next transaction on a cache line aligned address. This feature is
enabled when the Read Align Enable bit is set in the 82559ER Configure command (by te 3 , bit 2).
(Details on the Configure command are described in the
If this bit is set, the 82559ER operates as follows:
•
When the 82559ER is almost out of resources on the transmit DMA (that is, the transmit FIFO
is almost full), it attempts to terminate the read transaction on the nearest cache line boundary
when possible.
•
When the arbitration counter’s feature is enabled (in other words, the Transmit DMA
Maximum Byte Count value is set in the Configure command), the 82559ER switches to other
pending DMAs on the cache line boundary only.
Software Developer’s Manual
.)
Datasheet
Note the following:

•
This feature is not recommended for use in non-cache line oriented systems since it may cause
shorter bursts and lower performance.
•
This feature should be used only when the CLS register in PCI Configuration space is set to 8
or 16 Dwords.
•
The 82559ER reads all control data structures (including Receive Buffer Descriptors) fr om the
first Dword (even if it is not required) to maintain cache line alignment.
4.2.1.2.3Error Handlin
Data Parity Errors:
during a transaction. If the Parity Error Response bit is set (P CI Configuration Command register,
bit 6), the 82559ER also asserts PERR# and sets the D a ta Parity Detected bit (PCI Configuration
Status register, bit 8). In addition, if the error was detected by the 82559ER during read cycles, it
sets the Detected Parity Error bit (PCI Configuration Status register, bit 15).
4.2.2Clockrun Signal
The CLKRUN# signal is used to control the PCI clock as defined in the PCI Mobile design guide
and is compliant with the PCI Mobile design guide. The Clockrun signal is an open drain I/O
signal. It is used as a bidirectional channel between the host and the devices.
•
The host de-asserts the CLKRUN# signal to indicate that the PCI clock is about to be stopped
or slowed down to a non-operational frequency.
•
The host asserts the CLKRUN# signal when the interface clock is either running at a normal
operating frequency or about to be started.
•
The 82559ER asserts the CLKRUN# signal to indicate that it needs the PCI clock to prevent
the host from stopping the PCI clock or to request that the host restore the clock if it was
previously stopped.
Proper operation requires that the system latency from the nominal PCI CLK to CLKRUN#
assertion should be less than 0.5 µs. If the system latency is longer than 0.5 µs, the occurrence of
receive overruns increases. For use in these types of systems, the Clockrun functionality should be
disabled (see Section 8.1.12, “General Control Register” on page 61). In this case, the 82559ER
will claim the PCI clock even during idle time. If the CLKRUN# signal is not used , it sh ould be
connected to a pull-down resistor (62KΩ). The value of the resistor selected is dependent on the
ND-TREE set-up used (i.e. the test fixture must be able to overdrive pull-down).
As an initiator, the 82559ER checks and detects data parity errors that occur
4.2.3Power Management Event Signal
The 82559ER supports power management indications in the PCI mode. The PME# output pin
provides an indication of a power management event to the system. PCI Power Management
In addition to the base functionality of the 82558 B-step, the 82559 family supports a larger set of
wake-up packets and the capability to wake th e sy stem on a link status change from a low power
state. The 82559ER enables the host system to be in a sleep state and remain virtually connected to
the network. After a power management event or link status change is detected, the 82559ER will
wake the host system. The sections below describe these events, the 82559ER power states, and
estimated power consumption at each power state.
22
Datasheet
g
4.2.4Pow er States
The 82559ER’s power management register implements all four power states as defined in the
Power Management Network Device Class Reference Specification, Revision 1.0. The four states,
D0 through D3, vary from maximum power consumption at D0 to the minimum power
consumption at D3. PCI transactions are only allowed in the D0 state, except for host accesses to
the 82559ER’s PCI configuration registers. The D1 and D2 power management states enable
intermediate power savings while providing the system wake-up capabilities. In the D3
the 82559ER can provide wake-up capabilities only if auxiliary power is supplied. Wake-up
indications from the 82559ER are provided by the Power Management Event (PME#).
4.2.4.1D0 Power State
As defined in the Network Device Class Reference Specification , the dev ice is fully functional in
the D0 power state. In this state, the 82559ER receives full power and should be providing full
functionality. In the 82559ER the D0 state is partitioned into two substates, D0 Uninitialized (D0u)
and D0 Active (D0a).
D0u is the 82559ER’s initial power state following a PCI RST#. While in the D0u state, the
82559ER has PCI slave functionality to support its initialization by the host and supports wake up
events. Initialization of the CSR, Memory, or I/O Base Address Registers in the PCI Configuration
space switches the 82559ER from the D0u state to the D0a state.

state,
cold
In the D0a state, the 82559ER provides its full functionality and consumes its nominal power. In
addition, the 82559ER supports wake on link status change (see Section 4.2.5, “Wake-up Events”
on page 27). While it is activ e, the 825 59E R requires a nominal P CI cloc k signal (in oth er word s, a
clock frequency greater than 16 MHz) for proper operation. During idle time, the 82559ER
supports a PCI clock signal suspension using the Clockrun signal mechanism. The 82559ER
supports a dynamic standby mode. In this mode, the 82559ER is able to save almost as much
power as it does in the static power-down states. The trans ition to or from standby is done
dynamically by the 82559ER and is transparent to the software.
4.2.4.2D1 Power State
In order for a device to meet the D1 power state requirements, as specified in the Advanced
Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) Specification, Revision 1.0, it must not allow bus
transmission or interrupts; however, bus reception is allowed. Therefore, device context may be
lost and the 82559ER does not initiate any PCI activity. In this state, the 82559ER responds only to
PCI accesses to its configuration space and system wake-up events.
The 82559ER retains link integrity and monitors the link for any wake-up events such as wake-up
packets or link status change. Following a wake-up ev ent, the 82559ER asserts the PME# signal to
alert the PCI based system.
4.2.4.3D2 Power State
The ACPI D2 power state is similar in functionality to the D1 power state. If the bu s is in the B2
state, the 82559ER will consume less current than it does in the D1 state. In addition to D1
functionality, the 82559ER can provide a lower power mode with wake-on-link status change
capability. The 82559ER may enter this mode if the link is down while the 82559ER is in the D2
state. In this state, the 82559ER monitors the link fo r a transitio n from an invalid link to a valid
link. The 82559ER will not attempt to keep the link alive by transmitting idle symbols or link
integrity pulses.

GD82559ER — Networking Silicon
4.2.4.4D3 Power State
In the D3 power state, the 82559ER has the same capabilities and consumes the same amount of
power as it does in the D2 state. However, it enables the PCI system to be in the B3 state. If the PCI
system is in the B3 state (in other words , no PCI power is present ), the 825 59ER pro vides wake-up
capabilities if it is connected to an auxiliary power source in the system. If PME is disabled, the
82559ER does not provide wake-up capability or maintain link integrity. In this mode the 82559ER
consumes its minimal power.
The 82559ER enables a system to be in a sub-5 watt state (low power state) and still be virtually
connected. More specifically, the 82559ER supports full wake-up capabilities while it is in the
D3
state. The 82559ER can be connected to an auxiliary power source (V

auxiliary power source, the 82559ER receives all of its power from the auxiliary source in all
power states.
4.2.4.5Understanding Power Requirements
When running the 82559ER off a 3.3V_standby power source, the actual power consumption will
scale with network traffic. In other words, if the 82559ER is monitoring the network for ACPI
“Interesting Packets” only the PCI bus specific circuitry will be disabled. As an a example the
8259ER will typically draw approximately 120mA, in D1-D3 under a full Ethernet load. In the D0
state, the 82559ER will typically consume 125mA under the same load conditions.

4.2.4.6Auxiliary Power Signal
The 82559ER senses whether it is connected to the PCI power supply or to an auxiliary power
supply (V
) via the FLA1/AUXPWR pin. The auxiliary power detection pin (multiplexed with
AUX
FLA1) is sampled when the PCI RST# or ALTRST# signals are active. An external pull-up resistor
should be connected to the 82559ER if it is fed by V
should be left floating. The presence of AUXPWR affects the value reported in the Power
Management Capability Register (PCI Configuration Space, offset DEH). The Power Management
Capability Register is described in more detail in Section 7.1.18, “Power Management Capabilities
Register” on page 54.
4.2.4.7Alternate Reset Signal
The 82559ER’s ALTRST# input pin functions as a power-on reset input. Following ALTRST#
being driven low, the 82559ER is initialized to a known state. In systems that support auxili ary
power, this pin should be connected to the auxiliary power’s power stable signal (power good) of
the 82559ER’s power source. In a LAN on Motherboard solution, this signal is available on the
system. In network adapter implementations, an external analog device connected to the auxiliary
power supply can be used to produce this signal. In systems that do not have an auxiliary power
source, the ALTRST# signal should be tied to a pull-up resistor.
4.2.4.7.1Isolate Signal
When the 82559ER is connected to V
In this case, the 82559ER isolates itself from the PCI bus. The 82559ER has a dedicated
ISOLATE# pin that should be connected to the PCI power source’s stable power signal (power
good). Whenever the PCI Bus is in the B3 state, the PCI power good signal becomes inactive and
the 82559ER isolates itself from the PCI bus. During this state, the 82559ER ignores all PCI
signals including the RST# and CLK signals. It also tri-states all PCI outputs, except the PME#
signal. In the transition to an active PCI power state (in other words, from B3 power state to B0
power state), the PCI power good signal shifts high.

In a LAN on Motherboard solution, the PCI power good signal is supplied by the system. In
network adapter implementations, the PCI power go od sign al can b e eith er g enerated locally using
an external analog device, or connected directly to the PCI reset signal. In designs, that use both the
ISOLATE# and RST# pins of the 82559ER, the PCI power good signal should envelope
ISOLATE#, as shown below. For designs that use the PCI reset signal, the RST# pin on the
82559ER should be tied to the PCI power rail (through a 4.7

In many systems, the PCI RST# signal is asserted low whenever the PCI bus is inactive. In these
systems, the 82559ER B-step device and later devices allow the ISOLATE# pin to be driven from

Note:
4.2.4.7.2PCI Reset Signal
The PCI RST# signal may be activated in one of the following cases:
•
Power-up
•
Warm boot
•
Wake-up (B3 to B0 transition)
•
Set to power-down (B0 to B3 transi tion)
If PME is enabled (in the PCI power management registers), the RST# signal does not affect any
PME related circuits (in other words, PCI power management registers, and the wake-up packet
would not be affected). While the RST# signal is active, the 82559ER ignores other PCI signals
and floats its outputs. However, if AUXPWR is asserted, the RST# signal has no affect on any
circuitry.
While the 82559ER is in the D0, D1, or D2 power state, it is initialized by the RST# level. When
the 82559ER is in the D3 power state, the system bus may be in the B3 bus power state. In the B3
power state, the PCI RST# signal is undefined; however, the auxiliary power source proposal for
the PCI Specification, Revision 2.2 is for the PCI RST# signal to be an active low. Therefore, the
82559ER uses the PCI RST# similarly to the ISOLATE# signal in D3 power state. Following the
trailing edge of the PCI RST#, the 82559ER is initialized while preserving the PME# signal and its
context.
According to the PCI specification, during the B3 state, the RST# signal is undefined.
The transition from the B3 power state to the B0 power state occurs o n the trailing edge of the
RST# signal.
The initialization signal is generated internally in th e following cases:
•
Active RST# signal while the 82559ER is the D0, D1, or D2 power state
•
RST# trailing edge while the 82559ER is in the D3 power state

4.2.5Wake- up Events
There are two types of wake-up events: “Interesting” Packets and Link Status Change. These two
events are detailed below.
Note:
4.2.5.1“Interesting” Packet Events
The wake-up event is supported only if the PME Enable bit in the Power Management Control/
Status (PMCSR) register is set. (The PMCSR is described in Section 7.1.19, “Power Management
Control/Status Register (PMCSR)” on page 55.)
In the power-down state, the 82559ER is capable of recognizing “interesting” packets. The
82559ER supports pre-defined and programmable packets that can be defined as any of the
following:
•
ARP Packets (with Multiple IP addresses)
•
Direct Packets (with or without type qualification)
•
Neighbor Discovery Multicast Address Packet (‘ARP’ in IPv6 environment)
•
NetBIOS over TCP/IP (NBT) Query Packet (under IPv4)
This allows the 82559ER to handle various packet types. In general, the 82559ER supports
programmable filtering of any packet in the first 128 bytes.
Datasheet
27
GD82559ER — Networking Silicon
4.2.5.2Link Status Change Event
The 82559ER link status indication circuit is capable of issuing a PME on a link status change from
a valid link to an invalid link conditi on or vice versa . The 82559ER rep orts a PME link statu s event
in all power states. The PME# signal is gated by the PME Enable bit in the PMC SR and the CSMA
Configure command, which is described in the Software Developer’s Manual.
4.3Parallel Flash Interface
The 82559ER’s parallel interface is used primarily as a Flash interface. The 82559ER supports a
glueless interface to an 8-bit wide, 128 Kbyte, parallel memory device.
The Flash (or boot PROM) is read from or written to whenever the host CPU performs a read or a
write operation to a memory location that is within the Flash mapping window. All accesses to the
Flash, except read accesses, require the appropriate command sequence for the device used. (Refer
to the specific Flash data sheet for mo re details on reading f rom or writi ng to the Fl ash device.) Th e
accesses to the Flash are based on a direct decode of CPU accesses to a memory window defined in
either the 82559ER Flash Base Address Register (PCI Configuration space at offset 18H) or the
Expansion ROM Base Address Register (PCI Configuration space at offset 30H). The 82559ER
asserts control to the Flash when it decodes a valid access.
The 82559ER supports an external Flash memory (or boot PROM) of up to 128 Kbyte. The
Expansion ROM BAR can be separately disabled by setting the corresponding bit in the EEPROM,
word AH.
Note:
Flash accesses must always be assembled or disassembled by the 82559ER whenever the access is
greater than a byte-wide access. Due to slow access times to a typical Flash and to avoid violating
PCI bus holding specifications (no more than 16 wait states inserted for any cycles that are not
system initiation cycles), the maximum data size is either one word or one byte for a read operation
and one byte only for a write operation.
4.4Serial EEPROM Interface
The serial EEPROM stores configuration data for the 82559ER and is a serial in/serial out device.
The 82559ER supports a either a 64 register or 256 register size EEPROM and automatically
detects the EEPROM’s size. The EEPROM should operate at a frequency of at least 1 MHz.

4.510/100 Mbps CSMA/CD Unit
The 82559ER CSMA/CD unit implements both the IEEE 802.3 Ethernet 10 Mbps and IEEE
802.3u Fast Ethernet 100 Mb ps standa rds. It perfo rms all the C SMA/CD proto col functi ons such as
transmission, reception, collision handling, etc. The 82559ER CSMA/CD unit interfaces the
internal PHY unit through a standard Media Independent Interface (MII), as specified by IEEE
802.3, Chapter 22. This is a 10/100 Mbps mode in which the data stream is nibble-wide and the
serial clocks run at either 25 or 2.5 MHz.
30
Datasheet
g
4.5.1Full Duplex
When operating in full duplex mode the 8 2559ER can tran smit and receive frames simultan eously.
Transmission starts regardless of the state of the internal receive path. Reception starts when the
internal PHY detects a valid frame on the receive differential pair of the PHY.
The 82559ER operates in either half duplex mode or full duplex mode. For proper operation, both
the 82559ER CSMA/CD module and the PHY unit must be set to the same duplex mode. The
CSMA duplex mode is set by the 82559ER Configure command or forced by automatically
tracking the mode in the PHY unit.
The PHY duplex mode is set either by Auto-Negotiation or, if Auto-Negotiation is disabled, by
setting the full duplex bit in the Management Data Interface (MDI) Register 0, bit 8. By default, the
internal PHY unit advertises full duplex ability in the Auto-Negotiation process regardless of the
duplex setting of the CSMA unit. The CSMA configuratio n should match the result of the AutoNegotiation.
The selection of duplex operation (full or half) and flow control is done in two levels: MAC and
PHY. The MAC duplex selection is done only through CSMA configuration mechanism (in other
words, the Configure command from software).
4.5.2Flow Control
Networkin
Silicon — GD82559ER
The 82559ER supports IEEE 802.3x frame based flow control frames only in both full duplex and
half duplex switched environm ents. The 825 59ER flow con trol featur e is not intend ed to be used in
shared media environments.
Flow control is optional in full duplex mode and can be selected through software configuration.
There are three modes of flow control that can be selected: frame based transmit flow control,
frame based receive flow control, and none.
The PHY unit’s duplex and flow control enable can be selected using NWay* Auto-Negotiation
algorithm or through the Management Data Interface.
4.5.3Address Filtering Modifications
The 82559ER can be configured to ignore one bit when checking for its Individual Address (IA) on
incoming receive frames. The address bit, known as the Upp er/Lower (U/L) bit, is the secon d least
significant bit of the first byte of the IA. This bit may be used, in some cases, as a priority
indication bit. When configured to do so, the 82559ER passes any frame that matches all other 47
address bits of its IA, regardless of the U/L bit value.
This configuration only affects the 82559ER specific IA and not multicast, multi-IA or broadcast
address filtering. The 82559ER does not attribute any p riority to frames with this bit set, it simply
passes them to memory regardless of this bit.
4.5.4Long Frame Reception
Datasheet
The 82559ER supports the reception of long frames, specifically frames longer than 1518 bytes,
including the CRC, if software sets the Long Receive OK bit in the Configuration command
(described in the Software Developer’s Manual). Otherwise, “long” frames are discarded.
The MII management interface allows the CPU to control the PHY unit via a control register in the
82559ER. This allows the software driver to place the PHY in specific modes such as full duplex,
loopback, power down, etc., without the need for specific hard ware pins to sel ect the desired mod e.
This structure allows the 82559ER to query the PHY unit for status of the link. This register is the
MDI Control Register and resides at offset 10h in the 82559ER CSR. (The MDI registers are
described in detail in Section 9., “PHY Unit Registers” on page 65.) The CPU writes commands to
this register and the 82559 ER r eads or writes the co ntrol/ stat us par ameters to th e PHY unit throu gh
the MDI register. Although the 82559ER follows the MII format, the MI bus is not accessible on
external pins.

5.GD82559ER Test Port Functionalit
5.1Introduction
The 82559ER’s NAND-Tree Test Access Port (TAP) is the access point for test data to and from
the device. The port provides the ability to perform basic production level testing. The port provides two functions:
1) The the synchronous IC validation mode used in the production of the device. This mode gives
the signals their names (i.e TCK, Testability Port Clock).
2) In addition to the synchronous test mode, the 82559ER supports asynchonous testing modes.
These test modes support the validation of connections at the board level.
5.2Asynchronous Test Mode
Four asynchronous test modes are supported for system level design use. The modes are selected
through the use of Test Port input pin in static combinations. The Test Port pins are: TEST, TI,
TEXEC and TCK. During normal operation the Test pin must be pulled down through a resistor
(pulling Test high enables the test mode). All other Port inputs may have a pull-down at the designers discretion.
Silicon — GD82559ER
5.3Test Function Description
The 82559 TAP mode supports several tests that can be used in board l evel des ign. Th ese t es ts can
help in the verification of basic functionality. As well as test the integrity of solder connection on
the board. The tests are as follows:
5.485/85
The 85/85 test provides the same functionality to the bo ard level designer as the Tristate mode.

5.5TriState
This command set all 82559ER Input and Output pins into a TRI-state (HIGH-Z) mode, all internal
pull-ups and pull-downs are disabled. This mode is entered by setting the following Test Pin Com-
binations: TEST = ‘1, TCK = ‘0, TEXEC = ‘0,
5.6Nand - Tree
The NAND-Tree test mode is the most useful of the asynchronous test modes. The test enables the
placement of the 82559ER to be validated at board test. NAND-Tree was chosen for its speed
advantages. Modern automated test equipment can complete a complete peripheral scan without
support at the board level. This command connects all the outputs of the input-buffers in the device
periphery into a NAND - tree scheme. All the output drivers of the ou tput-buf fers except the T OUT
pin, are put into HIGH-Z mode. These pins can then be driven to affect the output of the tree. There
are two separate chains and associated outputs for speed. Any h a rd strap ped pins will prevent the
tester from scanning correctly. This mode is enter by placing the Test Pin in the following Combinations: TEST = ‘1, TCK = ‘0, TEXEC = ‘1, TI = ‘0
There are two nand-tree chains with two separate outputs assigned to FLOE# (Chain 1) and
FLWE# (Chain 2).
A 25 MHz crystal or a 25 MHz oscillator is used to drive the PHY unit’s X1 and X2 pins. The PHY
unit derives its internal transmit digital clocks from thi s crystal or oscillator input. The internal
Transmit Clock signal is a derivative of the 25 MHz internal clock. The accuracy of the external
crystal or oscillator must be ± 0.0005% (50 PPM).
6.1.2100BASE-TX Transmit Blocks
The transmit subsection of the PHY unit accepts nibble-wide data from the CSMA/CD unit. The
transmit subsection passes data unconditionally to the 4B/5B encoder.
The 4B/5B encoder accepts nibble-wide data (4 bits) from the CSMA unit and compi les it into 5bit-wide parallel symbols. These symbols are scrambled and serialized into a 12 5 Mb ps bit stream,
converted by the analog transmit driver into a MLT-3 waveform format, and transmitted onto the
Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) or Shielded Twis ted Pair (STP) wire.
6.1.2.1100BASE-TX 4B/5B Encoder
The 4B/5B encoder complies with the IEEE 802.3u 100BASE-TX standard. Four bits are encoded
according to the transmit 4B/5B lookup table. The lookup table matches a 5-bit code to each 4-bit
code.
The table below illustrates the 4B/5B encoding scheme ass ociated with the given symbol.

6.1.2.2100BASE-TX Scrambler and MLT-3 Encoder
Data is scrambled in 100BASE- TX to redu ce electr omagnet ic emiss ions du ring long tran smis sions
of high-frequency data codes. The scramb ler logic accepts 5 bits fro m the 4B/5B encode r block and
presents the scrambled data to the MLT-3 encoder. The PHY unit implements the 11-bit stream
cipher scrambler as adopted by the ANSI XT3T9.5 committee for UTP operation. The cipher
equation used is:
X[n] = X[n-11] + X[n-9] (mod 2)
The encoder receives the scrambled Non-Return to Zero (NRZ) data stream from the Scrambler
and encodes the stream into MLT-3 for presentation to the driver. MLT-3 is similar to NRZI
coding, but three levels are output instead of two. There are three output levels: p ositive, negative
and zero. When an NRZ “0” arrives at the input of the encoder, the last output level is maintained
(either positive, negative or zero). When an NRZ “1” arrives at the input of the encoder, the output
steps to the next level. The order of steps is negative-zero-positive-zero which continues
periodically.

The PHY unit does not differentiate between the fields of the MAC frame containing preamble,
Start of Frame Delimiter, data and Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC). The PHY unit encodes the
first byte of the preamble as the “JK” symbol, encodes all other pieces of data according to the 4B/
5B lookup table, and adds the “TR” code after the end of the packet. The PHY unit scrambles and
serializes the data into a 125 Mbps stream, encodes it as MLT-3, and drives it onto the wire.
6.1.2.4Transmit Driver
The transmit differential pair lines are implemented with a digital slope controlled current driver
that meets the TP-PMD specifications. Current is sinked from the isolation transformer by the TDP
and TDN pins. The conceptual transmit differential waveform for 100 Mbps is illustrated in the
following figure.

PHY unit will accurately receive valid data from Category-5 (CAT5) UTP and Type 1 STP cable of
length well in excess of 100 meters.
6.1.3.1Adaptive Equalizer
The distorted MLT-3 signal at the end of the wire is restored by the equalizer. The equalizer
performs adaptation based on the shape of the received signal, equalizing the signal to meet
superior Data Dependent Jitter performance.
6.1.3.2Receive Clock and Data Recover
The clock recovery circuit uses advanced digital signal processing technology to compensate for
various signal jitter causes. The circuit recovers the 125 MHz clock and data and presents the data
to the MLT-3 decoder.
6.1.3.3MLT-3 Decoder, Descrambler, and Receive Digital Section
The PHY unit first decodes the MLT-3 data; afterwards, the descrambler reproduces the 5B
symbols originated in the transmitter . The descrambling is based on synchronization to the transmit
11-bit Linear Feedback Shift Register (LFSR) during idle. The data is decoded at the 4B/5B
decoder. Once the 4B symbols are obtained, the PHY unit outputs the receive data to the CSMA
unit.
6.1.3.4100BASE-TX Receive Framin
The PHY unit does not differentiate between the fields of the MAC frame containing preamble,
start of frame delimiter, data and CRC. During 100 Mbps reception, the PHY unit differentiates
between the idle condition ("L" symbols on the wire) and the preamble or start of frame delimiter.
When two non-consecutive bits are 0b within 10 bits (125 Mbps 5B data coding) the PHY unit
immediately asserts carrier sense. When the “JK” symbols (“11000, 10001”) are fully recognized,
the PHY unit provides the received data to the CSMA unit. If the “JK” symbol is not recognized
(“false carrier sense”), the carrier sense is immediately de-asserted and a receive error is indicated.
6.1.3.5100BASE-TX Receive Error Detection and Reportin
In 100BASE-TX mode, the PHY unit can detect errors in receive data in a number o f ways. Any of
the following conditions is considered an error:
•
Link integrity fails in the middle of frame reception.
•
The Start of Stream Delimiter (SSD) “JK” symbol is not fully detected after idle.
•
An invalid symbol is detected at the 4B/5B decoder.
•
Idle is detected in the middle of a frame (before “TR” is detected).
When any of the above error conditions occurs, the PHY unit immediately asserts its receive error
indication to the CSMA unit. The receive error ind i cation is held active as long as the receive error
condition persists on the receive pair.

6.1.4100BASE-TX Collision Detection
100BASE-TX collisions in half duplex mode onl y are detected similarly to 10BASE-T collision
detection, via simultaneous transmission and reception.
6.1.5100BASE-TX Link Integrity and Auto-Negotiation Solution
The 82559 Auto-Negotiation function automatically configures the device to the technology,
media, and speed to operate with its link partner. Auto-Negotiation is widely described in IEEE
specification 802.3u, clause 28. The PHY unit supports 10BASE-T half duplex, 10BASE-T full
duplex, 100BASE-TX half duplex, and 100BASE-TX full duplex.
The PHY unit has two Physical Media Attachment (PMA) technologi es with its link integrity
function, 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX.
6.1.5.1Link Integrit
In 100BASE-TX, the link integrity function is determined by a stable signal status coming from the
TP-PMD block. Signal status is asserted when the PMD detects breaking squelch energy and the
right bit error rate according to the ANSI specification.
6.1.5.2Auto-Negotiation
The PHY unit fully supports IEEE 802.3u, clause 28. The technology, 10BASE-T or 100BASETX, is determined by the Auto-Negotiation result.
Speed and duplex auto-select are functions of Auto-Negotiation. However, these parameters may
be manually configured via the MII management interface (MDI registers).
6.1.6Auto 10/100 Mbps Speed Selection
The MAC may either allow the PHY unit to automatically select its operating speed or force the
PHY into 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps mode. The Management Data Interface (MDI) can control the
PHY unit speed mode.
The PHY unit auto-select function determines the operation speed of the media based on the link
integrity pulses it receives. If no Fast Link Pulses (FLPs) are detected and Normal Link Pulses
(NLPs) are detected, the PHY unit defaults to 10 Mbps operation. If the PHY unit detects a speed
change, it dynamically changes its transmit clock and receive clock frequencies to the appropriate
value. This change takes a maximum of five millisecond s.

The 20 MHz and 10 MHz clocks needed f or 10B ASE-T are synthesized from the external 25 MHz
crystal or oscillator. The PHY unit provides the transmit clock and receive clock to the internal
MAC at 2.5 MHz.

GD82559ER — Networking Silicon
6.2.210BASE-T Transmit Blocks
6.2.2.110BASE-T Manchester Encoder
After the 2.5 MHz clocked data is serialized in a 10 Mbps serial stream, the 20 MHz clock
performs the Manchester encoding. The Manchester code always has a mid-bit transition. If the
value is 1b then the transition is from low to high. If the value is 0b then the transition is from high
to low. The boundary transition occurs only when the data changes from bit to bit. For example, if
the value is 10b, then the change is from high to low; if 01b, then the change is from low to high.
6.2.2.210BASE-T Driver and Filter
Since 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX have different filtration needs, both filters are impl emented
inside the chip. This allows the two technologies to share the same magnetics. The PHY unit
supports both technologies through one pair of TD pins and by externally sharing the same
magnetics.
In 10 Mbps mode, the PHY unit begins transmitting the serial Manchester bit stream within 3 bit
times (300 nanoseconds) after the MAC asserts TXEN. In 10 Mbps mode the line drivers use a predistortion algorithm to improve jitter tolerance. The line drivers reduce their drive level during the
second half of “wide” (100ns) Manchester pulses and maintain a full drive level during all narrow
(50ns) pulses and the first half of the wide pulses. This reduces line overcharging during wide
pulses, a major source of jitter.
6.2.310BASE-T Receive Blocks
6.2.3.110BASE-T Manchester Decoder
The PHY unit performs Manchester decoding and timing recovery when in 10 Mbps mode. The
Manchester-encoded data stream is decoded from the RD pair to separate Receive Clock and
Receive Data from the differential signal. This data is transferred to the CSMA unit at 2.5 MHz/
nibble. The high-performance circuitry of the PHY unit exceeds the IEEE 802.3 jitter
requirements.
6.2.3.210BASE-T Twisted Pair Ethernet (TPE) Receive Buffer and Filter
In 10 Mbps mode, data is expected to be received on the receive differential pair after passing
through isolation transformers. The filter is implemented inside the PHY unit for supporting single
magnetics that are shared with the 100BASE-TX side. The input differential voltage range for the
Twisted Pair Ethernet (TPE) receiver is greater than 585 mV and less than 3.1 V. The TPE receive
buffer distinguishes valid receive data, link test pulses, and the idle condition, according to the
requirements of the 10BASE-T standard.
The following line activity is determined to be in active and is rejected:
•
Differential pulses of peak magnitude less than 300 mV
•
Continuous sinusoids with a differential amplitude less than 6.2 Vpp and frequency less th an 2
MHz
•
Sine waves of a single cycle duration starting with 0 or 180° phase that have a differential
amplitude less than 6.2 V
These single-cycle sine waves are discarded only if they are preceded by 4 bit times (400
nanoseconds) of silence.

6.2.3.310BASE-T Error Detection and Reportin
In 10 Mbps mode, the PHY unit can detect errors in the receive data. The following condition is
considered an error:
The receive pair’s voltage level dr ops to the idle s tate during reception be fore the en d-of-frame
bit is detected (250 nanoseconds without mid -bit transitions).
6.2.410BASE-T Collision Detection
Collision detection in 10 Mbps mode is indicated by simultaneous transmission and reception. If
the PHY unit detects this condition, it asserts a collision indication to the CSMA/CD unit.
6.2.510BASE-T Link Integrit

link pulses from fast link pulses and from 100BASE-TX idles. The 10 Mbps link pulses or normal
link pulses are driven in the transmit differ ential pair line but are 100 ns wide and have levels from
0 V to 5 V. The link beat pulse is also used to determine if the receive pair polarity is reversed. If it
is, the polarity is corrected internally.

Silicon — GD82559ER
6.2.610BASE-T Jabber Control Function
The PHY unit contains a jabber control function that inhibits transmission after a specified time
window when enabled. In 10 Mbps mode, the jabber timer is set to a value between 26.2 ms and 39
ms. If the PHY unit detects continuous transmission that is greater than this time period, it prevents
further transmissions from onto the wire until it detects th at the MAC transmit enable signal has
been inactive for at least 314 ms.
6.2.710BASE-T Full Duplex
The PHY unit supports 10 Mbps full duplex by disabling the collision function, the squelch test,
and the carrier sense transmit function. This allows the PHY unit to transmit and receive
simultaneously, achieving up to 20 Mbps of network bandwidth. The conf iguratio n can be achieved
through Auto-Negotiation. Full duplex should only be used in point-to-point connections (no
shared media).
6.3Auto-Negotiation Functionalit
The PHY unit supports Auto-Negotiation. Auto-Negotiation is an automatic configuration scheme
designed to manage interoperability in multifu nctional LAN environments. It allows two stations
with “N” different modes of communication to establish a common mode of operation. At powerup, Auto-Negotiation automatically establishes a link that takes advantage of an Auto-Negotiation
capable device. An Auto-Negotiation capable device can detect and automatically configure its
port to take maximum advantage of common modes of operation without user intervention or prior
knowledge by either station. The possible common modes of operation are: 100BASE-TX,
100BASE-TX Full Duplex, 10BASE-T, and 10BASE-T Full Duplex.
Datasheet
43
GD82559ER — Networking Silicon
6.3.1Description
Auto-Negotiation selects the fastest operating mode (in other words, the highest common
denominator) available to hardware at both ends of the cable. A PHY’s capability is encoded by
bursts of link pulses called Fast Link Pulses (FLPs). Connection is established by FLP exchange
and handshake during link initialization tim e. Once the link is established by this handshake, the
native link pulse scheme resumes (that is, 10BA SE-T or 100BASE-TX link pulses). A reset or
management renegotiate command (through the MDI interface) will restart the process. To enable
Auto-Negotiation, bit 12 of the MDI Control Register must be set. If the PHY unit cannot perform
Auto-Negotiation, it will set this bit to a 0 and determine the speed using Parallel Detection.
The PHY unit supports fou r technol ogies: 100BAS E-Tx Fu ll and Half Duplex and 10BASE -T Ful l
and Half Duplex. Since only one technology can be used at a time (after every re-negotiate
command), a prioritization scheme must be used to ensure that the highest common denominator
ability is chosen. Each bit in this table is set according to what the PHY is capable of sup porting. In
the case of the 82559’s PHY unit, bits 0, 1, 2, 3, and 5 (10BASE-T, 10BASE-T full duplex,
100BASE-TX, 100BASE-TX full duplex and pause [frame based flow control], respectively) are
set.
To detect the correct techno logy, the two register fields, technology ability and technology priority,
should be ANDed together to obtain the highest common denominator. This value should then be
used to map into a priority resolution table used by the MAC driver to use the appropriate
technology.
6.3.2Parallel Detect and Auto-Negotiation
The PHY unit automatically determines the speed of the link either by using Parallel Detect or
Auto-Negotiation. Upon a reset, a link status fail, or a Negotiate/Re-n egotiate command, the PHY
unit inserts a long delay during which no link pulses are transmitted. This period, known as
Force_Fail, insures that the PHY unit‘s link partne r has gone into a Link Fail state before AutoNegotiation or Parallel Detection begins. Thus, both sides (PHY unit and PHY unit’s link partner)

will perform Auto-Negotiation or Parallel Detection with no data packets being transmitted.
Connection is then established either by FLP exchange or Parallel Detection. The PHY unit will

The Revision ID is an 8-bit read only register with a default value of 08h for the 82559ER. The
three least significant b its of the Revi sion ID can be overri dden by the ID and R evisio n ID fields in
the EEPROM (Section 4.4, “Serial EEPROM Interface” on page 28).
7.1.5PCI Class Code Register
The Class Code register is read only and is used to identify the generic function of the device and,
in some cases, specific register level programming interface. The register is broken into three byte
size fields. The upper byte is a base class code and specifies the 82559ER as a network controller,
2H. The middle byte is a subclass code and specifies the 82559ER as an Ethernet controller, 0H.
The lower byte identifies a specific register level programming interface and the 82559ER always
returns a 0h in this field.
7.1.6PCI Cache Line Size Register
In order for the 82559ER to support the Memory Write and Invalidate (MWI) command, the
82559ER must also support the Cache Line Size (CLS) register in PCI Configuration space. The
register supports only cache line sizes of 8 and 16 Dwords. Any value other than 8 or 16 that is
written to the register is ignored and the 82559ER does not use the MWI command. If a value other
than 8 or 16 is written into the CLS register, the 82559ER returns all zeroes when the CLS register
is read. The figure below illustrates the format of this register.

Bit 3 is set to 1b only if the value 0000 10 00b (8H) is written to this register, and bit 4 is set to 1b
only if the value of 0001 0000b (16H) is wr itten to this regist er. All other bits are read only and will
return a value of 0b on read.
This register is expected to be written by the BIOS and the 82 559ER driver should not write to it.
7.1.7PCI Latency Timer
The Latency Timer register is a byte wide register. When the 82559ER is acting as a bus master,
this register defines the amount of time, in PCI clock cycles, that it may own the bus.
7.1.8PCI Header Type
The Header Type register is a byte read only register. It is hard-coded to equal to 00h for a single
function card.
7.1.9PCI Base Address Registers
One of the most important functions for enabling superior configurability and ease of use is the
ability to relocate PCI devices in address spaces. The 82559ER contains three types of Base
Address Registers (BARs). Two are used for memory mapped resources, and one is used for I/O
mapping. Each register is 32 bits wide. The least significant bit in the BAR determines whether it
represents a memory or I/O space. The figures below show the layout of a BAR for both memory
and I/O mapping. After determining this in format ion, power-u p software ca n map the memory and
I/O controllers into available locations and proceed with system boot. To do this mapping in a
device independent manner, the base registers for this mapping are placed in the predefined header
portion of configuration space. Device drivers can then access this configuration space to
determine the mapping of a particular device.

Note:
Bit 0 in all base registers is read only and used to determine whether the register maps into memory
or I/O space. Base registers that map to memory space must return a 0b in bit 0. Base registers that
map to I/O space must return 1b in bit 0.
Base registers that map into I/O space are always 32 bits wide with bit 0 hardwired to a 1b, bit 1 is
reserved and must return 0b on reads, and the other bits are used to map the device into I/O space.
The number of upper bits that a device actually implements depends on how much of the address
space the device will respond to. For example, a device that wants a 1 Mbyte memory address
space would set the most significant 12 bi ts of the base address register to be configurable, setting
the other bits to 0b.
The 82559ER contains BARs for the Control/Status Register (CSR), Flash, and Expansion ROM.
7.1.9.1CSR Memory Mapped Base Address Register
The 82559ER requires one BAR for memory mapping. Software determines wh ich BAR, me mory
or I/O, is used to access the 82559ER CSR registers.
The memory space for the 82559ER CSR Memory Mapped BAR is 4 Kbyte. It is marked as
prefetchable space and is mapped anywhere in the 32-bit memory address space.
7.1.9.2CSR I/O Mapped Base Address Register
The 82559ER requires one BAR for I/O mapping. Software determines which BAR, memory or
I.O, is used to access the 82559ER CSR registers. The I/O space for the 82559ER CSR I/O BAR is
64 bytes.
7.1.9.3Flash Memory Mapped Base Address Register
The Flash Memory BAR is a Dword register. The 82559ER physically supports up to a 128 Kbyte
Flash device, and requests a 128Kbyte window. The 82559ER always claims a Flash memory
window , regar dless of wh ether or n ot a Flas h device is conn ected (i.e. F lash Bas e Address Regi ster
cannot be disabled).
7.1.9.4Expansion ROM Base Address Register
The Expansion ROM BAR is a Dword register and supports a 128 Kbyte memory via the 82559 ER
local bus. The Expansion ROM BAR can be disabled by setting the Boot Disable bit of the
EEPROM (word AH, bit 11 ). The 82559ER requests a 1MB window for expansion ROM. If the
Boot Disable bit is set, the 82559ER returns a 0b for all bits in this address register, avoiding
request of memory allocation for this space.

7.1.10PCI Subsystem Vendor ID and Subsystem ID Registers
The Subsystem Vendor ID field identifies the vendor of an 82559ER-based solution. The
Subsystem Vendor ID values are based upon the vendor’s PCI Vendor ID and is controlled by the
PCI Special Interest Group (SIG).
The Subsystem ID field identi fies the 8255 9ER-based sp ecific solutio n implement ed by the vendor
indicated in the Subsystem Vendor ID field.
The 82559ER provides support for configurable Subsystem Vendor ID and Subsystem ID fields.
After hardware reset is de-asserted, the 82559ER automatically reads addresses Ah through Ch of
the EEPROM. The first of these 16-bit values is used for controlling various 82559ER functions.
The second is the Subsystem ID value, and the third is the Subsystem Vendor ID value. Again, the
default values for the Subsystem ID and Subsystem Vendor ID are 0h and 0H, respectively.
The 82559ER checks bit numbers 15, 14, and 13 in the EEPROM, word Ah and functions
according to Table 7 below.
Bits 15, 14Bit 13Device IDVendor IDRevision IDSubsystem ID
The Revision ID is subject to change according to the silicon stepping.
X1209H8086H09H0000H
The above table implies that if the 82559ER detects the presence of an EEPROM (as indicated by a
value of 01b in bits 15 and 14), then bit number 13 determines whether the values read from the
EEPROM, words Bh and CH, will be loaded into the Subsystem ID (word BH) and Subsystem
Vendor ID (word CH) fields. If bits 15 and 14 equal 01b and bit 13 equals 1b, the three least
significant bits of the Revision ID field are programmed by bits 8-10 of the first EEPROM word,
word AH.
Between the de-assertion of reset and the completion of the automatic EEPROM read, the
82559ER does not respond to any PC I configuration cycles. If the 82559E R happens to b e accessed
during this time, it will Retry the access. More information on Retry is provided in Section
4.2.1.1.3, “Retry Premature Accesses” on page 17.

7.1.13Interrupt Pin Register
The Interrupt Pin register is read only and defines which of the four PCI interrupt request pins,
INTA# through INTD#, a PCI device is connected to. The 82559ER is connected the INTA# pin.
7.1.14Minimum Grant Register
The Minimum Grant (Min_Gnt) register is an optional read only register for bus masters and is not
applicable to non-master devices. It defines the amount of tim e the bus master wants to retain PCI
bus ownership when it initiates a transaction. The default value of this register for the 82559ER is
08h. This can be converted to an actual time using the PC I specification (8* 1/PCIclk) , to a value of
242ns.
7.1.15Maximum Latency Register
The Maximum Latency (Max_Lat) register is an optional read only register for bus masters and is
not applicable to non-master devices. This register defines how often a device needs to access the
PCI bus. The default value of this register for the 82559ER is 18h. This can be converted to an
actual time using the PCI specification (18h* 1/PCIclk), to a value of 1µs.
7.1.16Capability ID Register
The Capability ID is a byte register. It signifies whether the current item in the linked list is the
register defined for PCI Power Management. PCI Power Management has been assigned the value
of 01H.
7.1.17Next Item Pointer
The Next Item Pointer is a byte register. It describes the location of the next item in the 82559ER’s
capability list. Since power management is th e last item in the list, this register is set to 0b.
7.1.18Power Management Capabilities Register
The Power Management Capabilities register is a word read only regis ter. It provides information
on the capabilities of the 82559ER related to po wer management. The 82559ER reports a value of
FE21h if it is connected to an auxiliary power source and 7E21h otherwise. It indicates that the

statistical counters that count a variety of events associated with both transmit and receive. The
counters are updated by the 82559ER when it comp lete s the processing of a frame (tha t is, when it
has completed transmitting a frame on the link or when it h a s completed receiving a frame). The
Statistical Counters are reported to the software on demand by issuing the Dump Statistical

whose Receive Unit is in the No Resources state fall into this
category. If the 82559ER is configured to Save Bad Frames
and the status of the received frame indicates that it is a bad
frame, the Receive Resource Errors counter is not updated.

the predefined MAC control Type value and a valid address

The Statistical Counters are initially set to zero by the 82559ER after rese t. They cannot be preset
to anything other than zero. The 82559ER increments the counters by internally reading them,
incrementing them and writing them back. This process is invisible to the CPU and PCI bus. In
addition, the counters adhere to the following rules:
The counters are wrap-around counters. After reaching FFFFFFFFh the counters wrap around

counter to be updated as multiple errors can occur in a single frame.
The counters are 32 bits wide and their behavior is fully compatible with the IEEE 802.1
•
standard. The 82559ER supports all mandatory and recommend statistics functions through
the status of the receive header and directly through these Statistical Counters.
The CPU can access the counters by issuing a Dump Statistical Counters SCB command. This
provides a “snapshot”, in main memory, of the internal 82559ER statistical counters. The 82559ER
supports 21 counters. .
The counters are initialized by power-up reset driven on the ALTRST# pin.

NOTES:
1. The 82559ER will work with any PCI clock frequency up to 33 MHz.
2. Rise and fall times are specified in terms of the edge rate measured in V/ns. This slew rate is met across the
minimum peak-to-peak portion of the clock waveform as shown in Figure 26.
10.4.1.2X1 Specifications
X1 serves as a signal input from an external crystal or oscillator. Table 23 defines the 82559ER
requirements from this signal.
Figure 27, Figure 28, and Table 24 define the conditions under which timing measurements are
done. The component test guarantees that all timings are met with minimum clock slew rate
(slowest edge) and voltage swing. The design must guarantee that minimum timings are also met
with maximum clock slew rate (fastest edge) and voltage swing. In addition, the design must
guarantee proper input operation for input voltage swings and slew rates that exceed the specified
test conditions.
