2.0 INTRODUCTION
2.1 General Description
The LAN7850 is a high performance Hi-SpeedUSB 2.0 to 10/100/1000 Ethernet controller with an integrated 10/100/
1000 Ethernet PHY and High-Speed Inter-Connect (HSIC) interface. With applications ranging from notebook/tablet
docking stations, set-top boxes, and PVRs, to USB port replicators, USB to Ethernet dongles, embedded systems, and
test instrumentation, the LAN7850 is a high performance and cost effective USB/HSIC to Ethernet connectivity solution.
The LAN7850 contains an integrated 10/100/1000 Ethernet MAC and PHY, Filtering Engine, USB PHY (with HSIC inter-
face), Hi-Speed USB 2.0 device controller, TAP controller, EEPROM controller, and a FIFO controller with internal
packet buffering.
The internal USB 2.0 device controller and USB PHY are compliant with the USB 2.0 Hi-Speed standard. The LAN7850
implements Control, Interrupt, Bulk-in, and Bulk-out USB Endpoints.
The Ethernet controller supports auto-negotiation, auto-polarity correction, HP Auto-MDIX, and is compliant with the
IEEE 802.3, IEEE 802.3u, IEEE 802.3ab, and 802.3az (Energy Efficient Ethernet) standards. ARP and NS offload are
also supported.
Multiple power management features are provided, including Energy Efficient Ethernet (IEEE 802.3az), support for Mic-
rosoft’s Always On Always Connected (AOAC), and “Magic Packet”, “Wake On LAN”, and “Link Status Change” wake
events. Wake events can be programmed to initiate a USB remote wakeup. Up to 32 different AOAC wake-up frame
patterns are supported along with Microsoft’s WPD (Whole Packet Detection).
An internal EEPROM controller exists to load various USB and Ethernet configuration parameters. For EEPROM-less
applications, the LAN7850 provides 1K Bytes of OTP memory that can be used to preload this same configuration data
before enumeration. The integrated IEEE 1149.1 compliant TAP controller provides boundary scan via JTAG.
The LAN7850 is available in commercial and industrial temperature range versions. An internal block diagram of the
LAN7850 is shown in Figure 2-1.

5.0 USB DEVICE CONTROLLER
5.1 Overview
The USB functionality consists of five major parts. The USB PHY, UDC (USB Device Controller), URX (USB Bulk Out
Receiver), UTX (USB Bulk In Transmitter), and CTL (USB Control Block).
The UDC is configured to support one configuration, one interface, one alternate setting, and four endpoints. Streams
are not supported in this device. The URX and UTX implement the Bulk-Out and Bulk-In endpoints respectively. The
CTL manages Control and Interrupt endpoints.
Each USB Controller endpoint is unidirectional with even numbered endpoints handling the OUT (from the host, actually
RX into the device) direction and odd numbered endpoints handling the IN (to the host, actually TX from the device)
direction.
The UDC endpoint numbers start at 0 and increment. Endpoint numbers are not skipped and have a fixed mapping to
the USB endpoint numbers. The corresponding USB endpoint is obtained by dividing the UDC endpoint number by 2
(rounding down). For example, single directional endpoint 0 indicates USB OUT endpoint 0, and single directional end-
point 1 corresponds to USB IN endpoint 0.
The mapping of the device’s USB endpoints to the UDC endpoints is shown in Table 5-1. As can be seen, one IN and
two OUT endpoints on the UDC are not utilized.
5.2 Control Endpoint
The Control endpoint is handled by the CTL (USB Control) module. The CTL module is responsible for handling stan-
dard USB requests, as well as USB vendor commands. The UDC does not handle USB commands. These commands
are passed to the CTL for completion.
5.2.1 USB STANDARD COMMAND PROCESSING
This section lists the supported USB standard device requests. The basic format of a device request is shown in section
9.3 of the USB 2.0 specification and the standard device requests are described in section 9.4. Valid values of the
parameters are given below.
Per the USB specifications, if an unsupported or invalid request is made to a USB device, the device responds by return-
ing STALL in the Data or Status stage of the request. Receipt of an unsupported or invalid request does NOT cause the
optional Halt feature on the control pipe to be set.
For each request supported, the USB specifications provide details on the device behavior during the various configu-
ration states and on the conditions which will return a Request Error. Some requests affect the state of the hardware.
In order to implement the Get Descriptor command, the CTL manages a 128x32 Descriptor RAM. The RAMs contents
are initialized via the EEPROM or OTP, after a system reset occurs. The Descriptor RAM may also be programmed by
the device driver to support EEPROM-Less mode.

When the UDC decodes a Get Descriptor command, it will pass a pointer to the CTL. The CTL uses this pointer to deter-
mine what the command is and how to fill it.
5.2.1.1 Clear Feature
bmRequestType - 00h for the device, 01h for interfaces and 02h for endpoints.
wValue - Specifies the feature, 1=Device_Remote_Wakeup and 0=Endpoint_Halt.
wIndex - Always 0 when the device is selected, specifies the interface number (always 0) when an interface is selected
or the direction/endpoint number (0, 80h, 81h, 2 or 83h) when an endpoint is selected.
A ClearFeature(Endpoint_Halt) request will clear the USB 2.0 data toggle for the specified endpoint.
5.2.1.2 Get Configuration
All parameters are fixed per the USB specifications.
5.2.1.3 Get Descriptor
wValue - The high byte selects the descriptor type. The supported descriptors for this command are 1=Device, 2=Con-
figuration (including Interface, Endpoint descriptors and Endpoint Companion descriptors (USB 2.1 LPM)), 3=String,
6=Device Qualifier (HS/FS), 7=Other Speed Configuration (USB2.0). The low byte selects the descriptor index and must
be 0.
wIndex - Specifies the Language ID for string descriptors or is 0 for other descriptors.
wLength - Specifies the number of bytes to return. If the descriptor is longer than the wLength field, only the initial bytes
of the descriptor are returned. If the descriptor is shorter than the wLength field, the device indicates the end of the con-
trol transfer by sending a short packet when further data is requested. A short packet is defined as a packet shorter than
the maximum payload size or a zero length data packet.
5.2.1.4 Get Interface
wIndex - Specifies the interface, always 0 for this device.
5.2.1.5 Get Status
bmRequestType - 00h for the device, 01h for interfaces and 02h for endpoints.
wIndex - Always 0 when the device is selected, specifies the interface number (always 0) when an interface is selected
or the direction/endpoint number (0, 80h, 81h, 2 or 83h) when an endpoint is selected.

5.2.1.6 Set Address
wValue - Specifies the new device address.
Per the USB specification, the USB device does not change its device address until after the Status stage of this request
is completed successfully. This is a difference between this request and all other requests. For all other requests, the
operation indicated must be completed before the Status stage.
5.2.1.7 Set Configuration
wValue - The lower byte specifies the configuration value.
The device supports only one configuration. A value of 1 places the device into the Configured state while a value of 0
places the device into the Address state.
The Halt feature is reset for all endpoints upon the receipt of this request with a valid configuration value.
The USB 2.0 data toggle for all endpoints are initialized upon the receipt of this request with a valid configuration value.
5.2.1.8 Set Descriptor
This optional request is not supported and the device responds by returning STALL.
5.2.1.9 Set Feature
bmRequestType - 00h for the device, 01h for interfaces and 02h for endpoints.
wValue - Specifies the feature, 1=Device_Remote_Wakeup, 2=device Test_Mode, 0=Endpoint_Halt.
wIndex - Specifies the interface number (always 0) when an interface is selected or the direction/endpoint number (81h,
2 or 83h) when an endpoint is selected. When the device is selected, this field is always 0 unless device Test_Mode is
selected via wValue, in which case the upper byte is the Test Selector and the lower byte a 0.
5.2.1.10 Set Interface
wValue - Specifies the alternate setting (must be 0).
wIndex - Specifies the interface (always 0).
Only one interface with one setting is supported by the device. If the command is issued with an
interface other than 00h, the device responds with a Request Error. If the command is issued with an
interface setting of 00h but with an alternative setting other than 00h, the device responds with a
STALL.
The Halt feature is reset for all endpoints upon the receipt of this request with valid interface and
alternate setting values.
The USB 2.0 data toggle for all endpoints are initialized upon the receipt of this request with valid
interface and alternate setting values.
5.2.1.11 Set Isochronous Delay
This command is not supported. The device will respond with a Stall to this request.
5.2.1.12 Set SEL
This command is not supported. The device will respond with a Stall to this request.
5.2.1.13 Sync Frame
There are no isochronous endpoints in this device. The device will respond with a Stall to this request.
5.2.2 USB VENDOR COMMANDS
The device implements several vendor specific commands in order to directly access CSRs and efficiently gather sta-
tistics. The memory map utilized by the address field is defined in Table 15-1, “Memory Map,” on page 140.
Note: Endpoint_Halt is not implemented for Endpoint 0.

5.2.3 DESCRIPTOR RAM
The Control Endpoint manipulates an internal Descriptor RAM which stores various configuration for the device includ-
ing USB descriptors. The descriptor RAM is typically loaded from either an external EEPROM or the integrated OTP.
However a mechanism exists, EEPROM-less mode, which allows the host software to directly configure the Descriptor
RAM. It is described in Section 10.6, "Customized Operation Without EEPROM". The Descriptor RAM format is dis-
cussed in Section 10.6.3, "Descriptor RAM Initialization"
The Control EP first evaluates whether an external EEPROM is present by the successful recognition of the EEPROM
signature. If an EEPROM exists, it shall be used to load the contents into the Descriptor RAM.
If an EEPROM does not exist, the Control EP considers whether the OTP is configured. If the OTP is configured it shall
be used to load the Descriptor RAM.
In the event that the EEPROM does not exist and the OTP is not configured, the Control EP shall utilize the CSR and
EEPROM defaults, as defined in Section 10.5, "EEPROM Defaults", for configuring the device.
EEPROM-Less operation may be invoked by host software. This mode shall take priority over an external EEPROM or
configured OTP. This mode is described in Section 10.6, "Customized Operation Without EEPROM".
5.3 Bulk In Endpoint
The Bulk In Endpoint is controlled by the UTX (USB Bulk In Transmitter). The UTX is responsible for encapsulating
Ethernet data into USB Bulk In packets. Ethernet frames are retrieved from the FCT’s RX FIFO and passed to the UDC.
The UTX manages an 8 KB UTX FIFO Buffer. USB packets from FCT are temporarily stored there to facilitate efficient
bursting. In support for bursting, a USB Command FIFO is managed by the UTX to track packet lengths.
5.3.1 USB TX DATA FIFO
The UTX Data FIFO RAM is a 2K x 32 (8 KB) dual port type. All USB packets are DWORD aligned in the USB TX Data
FIFO. All Ethernet frames are DWORD aligned in USB packets. Within a USB transfer (assuming MEF mode is
enabled), consecutive Ethernet frames are not concatenated into the same DWORD. The unused bytes (up to 3) in the
DWORD at the end of an Ethernet frame (assuming it is not the last frame) are included in the USB packet and its length
and are discarded by the host driver software. At the end of a USB transfer, the unused bytes (up to 3) are not included
in the USB packet or it’s length. The USB Device Controller will discard any unused bytes within a DWORD.
5.3.2 USB TX COMMAND FIFO
As Ethernet frames are transferred into the USB TX Data FIFO, the resulting USB packet lengths (including any zero
length packets) are written into the USB TX Command FIFO. The USB Device Controller requires the packet lengths
and number of packets available at the start of a USB transmission.
The size of the USB command FIFO allows up to 32 packets to be queued. This number is based on the 8K byte size
of the USB TX Data FIFO divided by an average USB packet size of 256 bytes (e.g. 16 @ 512 byte packets and 16 zero
length packets, etc.). Since it is possible for the USB TX Command FIFO to fill before the USB TX Data FIFO, the USB
TX Command FIFO provides a full signal.
The head entry (USB packet length) and depth (number of entries) of the USB TX Command FIFO are passed as the
USB packet length and number of available packets, respectively, to the USB Device Controller.
5.3.3 MEF/SEF OPERATION
The UTX supports the following two modes of operation: MEF and SEF, selected via the Multiple Ethernet Frames per
USB Packet (MEF) bit of the Hardware Configuration Register (HW_CFG).
MEF: Multiple Ethernet frames per Bulk In packet. This mode will maximize USB bus utilization by allowing multi-
ple Ethernet frames to be packed into a USB packet. Frames greater than maximum USB packet size are split
across multiple Bulk In packets.
SEF: Single Ethernet frame per Bulk In packet. This mode will not maximize USB bus utilization, but simplifies the
host software implementation and can potentially ease the burden on a low end Host processor. Frames greater
than maximum USB packet size are split across multiple Bulk In packets.
2015 - 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. DS00001993D-page 29
LAN7850
Each Ethernet frame is pre-pended with three RX Command Words, RX Command A, RX Command B and RX Com-
mand C by the FCT. RX Command A contains the frame length that is used by the UTX to perform the encapsulation
functions. The contents of the command words are generated by the MAC, RFE, and FCT.
An Ethernet frame (starting with RX Command A) always begins on a DWORD boundary in the FCT. In MEF mode,
UTX will not concatenate the end of the current frame and the beginning of the next frame into the same DWORD.
Therefore, the last DWORD of an Ethernet frame may have unused bytes added to ensure DWORD alignment of the
RX Command A of the next frame. The addition of pad bytes at the end of the frame depends on whether another frame
is available for transmission after the current one. If the current frame is the last frame to be transmitted, no pad bytes
will be added, as the USB protocol allows for termination of the packet on a byte boundary. If, however, another frame
is available for transmission, the current frame will be padded out so that it ends on the DWORD boundary. This ensures
the next frame to be transmitted, starting with RX Command A, will start on a DWORD boundary.
Any unused bytes that were added to the last DWORD of a frame are not counted in the length field of RX Command A.
As noted in Section 5.3.1, UTX is responsible for storing USB packets into UTX Data FIFO. When calculating USB
packet lengths DWORD padding between Ethernet frames is included.
In accordance with the USB protocol, UTX terminates a burst with either a ZLP or a Bulk In packet with a size of less
than the Bulk In maximum packet size (512 for HS, 64 for FS). The ZLP is needed when the total amount of data trans-
mitted is a multiple of a Bulk In maximum packet size. UTX monitors the UTX Data FIFO size to determine when a burst
has ended.
The UTX monitors the RX FIFO size signal from the FCT and moves data into the UTX Data FIFO as complete Ethernet
frames are received by the FCT and space is available. When the frame is moved its length is incorporated to packet
length of the USB packet being formed. After a complete USB packet is created an entry is written into the UTX Com-
mand FIFO. If the Ethernet frame can not fit into the USB packet the remainder is moved into subsequent USB
packet(s).
The UTX provides a mechanism for limiting the size of the USB burst per the burst cap function as described in Section
, "Burst Cap Usage". This caps the amount of data that can be moved in a USB transfer before termination by a ZLP.
The burst cap function applies for all operating speeds.
FIGURE 5-1: MEF USB ENCAPSULATION
Note: In SEF mode, a ZLP is transmitted if the Ethernet frame is the same size as a maximum size Bulk In packet,
or a multiple of the maximum Bulk In packet size.
The Host ignores unused bytes that exist in the last DWORD of an Ethernet frame.
When using SEF mode, there will never be any unused bytes added for end alignment padding. The USB
transfer always ends on the last byte of the Ethernet frame.
If UTX receives a Bulk In token when the RX FIFO is empty, it will transmit a ZLP if Bulk-In Empty Response
(BIR) is set otherwise it will NAK (FS/HS) or NRDY (SS) when cleared.
LAN7850
DS00001993D-page 30 2015 - 2017 Microchip Technology Inc.
In order to more efficiently utilize USB bandwidth in MEF mode, the UTX has a mechanism for delaying the transmission
of a short packet, or ZLP. This mode entails having the UTX wait a time defined by the Bulk-In Delay Register
(BULK_IN_DLY) before terminating the burst. A value of zero in this register disables this feature. By default, a delay of
34 us is used.
After UTX transmits the last USB bMaxPacketSize packet in a burst, UTX enables an internal timer. When this timer is
equal to Bulk In Delay, any Bulk In data in the UTX Data FIFO is transmitted upon next opportunity to the host.
In HS/FS mode, if enough data arrives before the timer elapses to build at least one maximum sized packet, then the
UTX will transmit this packet when it receives the next Bulk In Token. After packet transmission, the UTX will reset its
internal timer and delay the short packet, or ZLP, transmission until the Bulk In Delay time elapses or new data is
received per above.
In the case where the UTX Data FIFO is empty and a single Ethernet packet less than USB bMaxPacketSize is then
received, the UTX enables its internal timer. If enough data arrives before the timer elapses to build at least one maxi-
mum sized packet, the UTX will transmit this packet and reset the timer. Otherwise, FIFO data is sent after the timer
expires.
In HS/FS mode, the UTX will NAK any Bulk In tokens while waiting for new data and Bulk In Delay to elapse.
Bulk In Delay is only intended for MEF operation and not appropriate for SEF mode.
5.3.4 USB ACKS AND RETRIES
In the case of an error condition, the UTX will issue a rewind to the FCT. This occurs when the UTX completes trans-
mitting a Bulk In packet and does not receive an ACK from the Host. In this case, the next frame received by the UTX
will be another In token and the Bulk In packet is retransmitted. When the ACK is finally received, the UTX notifies the
FCT. The FCT will then advance the read head pointer to the next packet.
Both the USB TX Data and Command FIFOs handle USB retries. When a USB packet is acknowledged, its command
information is popped from the USB TX Command FIFO and its storage can be release from the USB TX Data FIFO
(note that zero length packets would not release any USB TX Data FIFO space).
Burst Cap Usage
The UTX, via the Burst Cap Register (BURST_CAP), is capable of prematurely terminating a burst. The Burst Cap Reg-
ister (BURST_CAP) uses units of USB packet size (64/512/1024 bytes). To enable use of the Burst Cap register, the
Burst Cap Enable (BCE) bit in the USB Configuration Register 0 (USB_CFG0) must be set.
For proper operation, the BURST_CAP field should be set by software so that the following relationships hold true:
For HS Operation, BURST_CAP * 512 >= Maximum Frame Size (MAX_SIZE)
For FS Operation, BURST_CAP * 64 >= Maximum Frame Size (MAX_SIZE)
Failure to set BURST_CAP values that obey the previous rules may result in untoward operation and may yield unpre-
dictable results.
Whenever Burst Cap enforcement is disabled and the RX FIFO, and UTX FIFO, are empty, the UTX will respond with
a ZLP if Bulk-In Empty Response (BIR) = “0”. However, it will respond with NAK (FS/HS) when Bulk-In Empty Response
(BIR) = “1”.
Whenever Burst Cap enforcement is enabled, the following holds:
For HS Operation:
BURSTMax = BURST_CAP * 512
For FS operation:
BURSTMax = BURST_CAP * 64
Let BURSTCur = Length of current burst = Summation of the lengths of frames in the current burst.
Let LENGTHNext = Length of the next frame available in the RX FIFO.
If the RX FIFO runs out of data, or a frame is available and BURSTCur + LENGTHNext > BURSTMax, then the burst is
terminated with either a short USB packet or with a ZLP.
Otherwise, the next frame is able to fit in the current burst without exceeding BURST_CAP. The burst is continued and
BURSTCur is incremented by LENGTHNext.
Note: The first Ethernet frame of the burst is always sent without checking if it exceeds BURST_CAP.

LAN7850
5.4 Bulk Out Endpoint
The Bulk Out Endpoint is controlled by the URX (USB Bulk Out Receiver). URX is responsible for receiving Ethernet
data encapsulated over USB Bulk Out packet(s). Unlike the UTX, the URX does not explicitly track Ethernet frames. It
views all received packets purely as USB data. The extraction of Ethernet frames is handled by the FCT. The URX
always simultaneously supports MEF and SEF modes.
5.4.1 USB RX DATA FIFO
The URX manages an 8 KB Data FIFO. All USB packets start on DWORD boundaries. The format of the data within
USB packets and across USB transactions ensures that Ethernet frames (including command headers) are DWORD
aligned. Padding between Ethernet frames is added by the host driver and stripped by the TX FIFO.
5.4.2 RETRIES AND ERRORS
Packets from the USB Device Controller have the possibility of an error and subsequent retry. Based on the status of
the packet, the packet may be either rejected or accepted. If the packet is rejected, the write pointers and free space is
recovered from the data FIFO. If the packet is accepted, it can be made available to the FCT. Packet rejection or accep-
tance will occur before the start of the next packet, such that multiple outstanding packets need not be tracked.
The FCT notifies the URX when it detects loss of sync. When this occurs, the URX stalls the Bulk Out pipe via the UDC.
This is an appropriate response, as loss of sync is a catastrophic error (which can only be caused by a host software
error. See Section 6.2.4, "TX Error Detection"). This behavior is configurable via the Stall Bulk-Out Pipe Disable (SBP)
bit in the USB Configuration Register 0 (USB_CFG0).
5.5 Interrupt Endpoint
The Interrupt endpoint is responsible for indicating the device’s status at each polling interval. The Interrupt endpoint is
implemented via the CTL module. When the endpoint is accessed the following fields are presented to the host.
Note: If Store Bad Frames is set in the FIFO Controller RX FIFO Control Register (FCT_RX_CTL), then the size
of the transmitted burst may exceed the value specified by BURST_CAP. This can happen if an oversized
frame is received that is larger than BURST_CAP.
Ethernet frames are not fragmented across bursts when using Burst Cap Enforcement.

5.5.1 INTERRUPT PACKET FORMAT
If there is no interrupt status to report the device responds with a NAK unless Interrupt Endpoint Always On (INTEP_ON)
in Interrupt Endpoint Control Register (INT_EP_CTL) is set in which case an interrupt packet of 0x0 is returned.
For an interrupt event to be reported via the Interrupt endpoint, the respective bit must be enabled in Interrupt Endpoint
Control Register (INT_EP_CTL). The interrupt status can be cleared by writing to the Interrupt Status Register
(INT_STS).
5.5.2 USB STATUS
USB_STS_INT bit is used to facilitate communication with the host software regarding OS programming of the device.
The following are tracked by this mechanism.

The USB Status Register (USB_STATUS) includes both status change bits as well as the current value of the respective
when appropriate.
APPLICATION NOTE: The majority of the above status information can also be obtained using the GET_STATUS
USB request.
5.6 LPM Support
The USB device controller supports Link Power Management (LPM). It is fully capable of responding to LPM devices
and placing the device into the L1 and L2 states or conversely moving the device to L0 via remote wakeup or Resume
signaling.
Further details on LPM implementation can be found in Section 13.0, "Clocks and Power management (CPM)," on
page 126.
LPM is enabled by setting the LPM Capability (LPM_CAP) bit in USB Configuration Register 0 (USB_CFG0).
5.6.1 LPM L1
In L1 minimal components are powered down in order to ensure the device can quickly transition to L0 and not violate
the pertinent USB specification parameters.
The device shall automatically transition the link from L1 to L0 after it receives a frame which passes any programmed
filters in the RFE and MAC. Additionally, a scheduled interrupt EP packet shall also cause the device to transition out of
L0.
5.6.2 LPM L2
The L2 state mimics the respective suspend mode programmed in the Suspend Mode (SUSPEND_MODE) of the Power
Management Control Register (PMT_CTL).
5.7 USB Descriptors
In the event that the OTP is not configured or an external EEPROM is not available, the default values defined in the
descriptor tables below are used - except in the case where EEPROM-less mode is enabled. In that case, the descrip-
tors are programmed as defined in Section 10.6, "Customized Operation Without EEPROM".

Descriptor values. These values are used for Full-Speed and High-Speed operation.
Note 5-1 The descriptor length and descriptor type for Device Descriptors specified in OTP or EEPROM are
“don’t cares” and are always overwritten by hardware as 0x12 and 0x01, respectively.
Note 5-2 When operating in USB 2.0 mode the default value is 0210h (USB 2.10).
Note 5-3 When operating in full-speed or high-speed mode it should be set to 40h. If the OTP is not configured,
or EEPROM is not present, the aforementioned values are returned.
Note 5-4 Default value is dependent on device release. The MSB matches the device release and the LSB is
hard-coded to 00h. The initial release value is 01h. Subsequent versions will increment the value.
Note 5-5 Value is loaded from OTP, or EEPROM, but must be equal to the Default Value in order to comply
with the USB Specification and provide for normal device operation. Specification of any other value
will result in unwanted behavior and untoward operation.

6.0 FIFO CONTROLLER (FCT)
The FIFO controller uses internal RAMs to buffer RX and TX traffic. Bulk-Out packets from the URX are directly stored
into the FCT TX FIFO. The FCT is responsible for extracting Ethernet frames from the USB packet data and passing
the frames to the MAC.
Received Ethernet Frames are stored into the FCT RX FIFO and become the basis for bulk-in packets. The FCT passes
the stored data to the UTX in blocks typically 1024, 512 or 64 bytes in size, depending on the current USB operating
speed.
6.1 RX Path (Ethernet to USB)
The 12 KB RX FIFO buffers Ethernet frames received from the RFE. The UTX extracts these frames from the FCT to
form USB Bulk In packets. Host software will ultimately reassemble the Ethernet frames from the USB packets.
FCT manages the writing of data into the RX FIFO through the use of two pointers - the rx_wr_ptr and the rx_wr_hd_ptr.
The rx_wr_ptr is used to write Ethernet frame data into the FIFO. The rx_wr_hd_ptr points to two locations prior to the
first FIFO location that holds frame data. The two DWORD space is used to write RX Command A and RX Command
B upon completion of frame reception. Additionally, each Ethernet frame includes RX Command C which resides in the
same DWORD that includes the first two bytes of frame data. The command words include information about the frame
and status provided by the MAC, RFE, and FCT.
The rx_rd_ptr is used for reading data from the FIFO and passing it to the UTX. In order to support rewinds, the rx_rd_h-
d_ptr exists, as discussed in Section 6.1.1, "RX Error Detection". After an Ethernet frame is successfully read from the
FIFO, the rx_rd_hd_ptr advances to point to the start of the next frame. Figure 6-1 illustrates how a frame is stored in
the FIFO, along with pointer usage.
When the RFE signals that it has Data ready, the RFE controller starts passing the RX packet data to the FCT. The FCT
updates the RX FIFO pointers as the data is written into the FIFO. The last information written into the FIFO are the
Command Words.
The RX FCT operates in store and forward mode. A received Ethernet frame is not visible to the UTX until the complete
frame, including the Command Words, has been written into the RX FIFO. This is due to the fact that the frame may
have to be removed via a rewind (pointer adjustment), in case of an error. Such is the case when a FIFO overflow con-
dition is detected as the frame is being received. The FCT may be configured to discard errored frames and filtered
frames through the use of a rewind operation. The automatic discard of errored and filtered frames is enabled/disabled
by the Store Bad Frames bit of the FIFO Controller RX FIFO Control Register (FCT_RX_CTL). Please refer to Section
6.1.1, "RX Error Detection," on page 44 for further details concerning errors which may result in the FCT performing
rewind operation.
The FCT provides the UTX with an indication of how much data is available in the RX FIFO. This information is reflected
in the FIFO Controller RX FIFO Control Register (FCT_RX_CTL). In addition, internal signaling is used to inform the
UTX that at least one entire frame has been received.
A RX FIFO overflow condition may be signaled via the RX Data FIFO Overflow Interrupt (RDFO_INT). The FCT RX
Overflow bit of the FIFO Controller RX FIFO Control Register (FCT_RX_CTL) is also asserted when an overflow has
occurred.
Note: RX Command C also serves the purpose of DWORD aligning the Ethernet frame TCP, IP and other proto-
col headers.

6.1.1 RX ERROR DETECTION
The FCT can be configured to drop Ethernet frames when certain error conditions occur. The setting of the Store Bad
Frames bit of the FIFO Controller RX FIFO Control Register (FCT_RX_CTL) determines if the frame will be retained or
dropped. Error conditions are indicated in RX Command A. Please refer to Table 5-9, “Statistics Counter Definitions,”
on page 23 for more details on the error conditions tracked by the device.
FIGURE 6-1: RX FIFO STORAGE
Note: The disposition of frames having checksum errors (IP/TCP/UDP) is not affected by Store Bad Frames.
These frames are always passed to the Host Controller.
2015 - 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. DS00001993D-page 45
LAN7850
The FCT also drops frames when it detects a FIFO overflow condition. This occurs when the FIFO full condition occurs
while a frame is being received. The FCT also maintains a count of the number of times a FIFO overflow condition has
occurred.
Dropping an Ethernet frame is implemented by rewinding the received frame. A write side rewind is implemented by
setting the rx_wr_ptr to be equal to the rx_wr_hd_ptr. Similarly, a read side rewind is implemented by setting the
rx_rd_ptr to be equal to the rx_rd_hd_ptr.
For the case where the frame is dropped due to overflow, the FCT ignores the remainder of the frame. It will not begin
writing into the RX FIFO again until the next frame is received.
In the read direction, the FCT also supports rewinds for the UTX. This is needed for the case where the USB Bulk Out
packet is not successfully received by the Host and needs to be retransmitted.
6.1.2 RX COMMAND FORMAT
Every received Ethernet frame has Command Words concatenated to it that provide information about the frame.
Table 6-1, "RX Command A", Table 6-2, "RX Command B" and Table 6-3, "RX Command C" define the contents of the
Command Words.
RX Command A contains the frame length and has various status bits in regards to the frame. RX Command B provides
the raw layer 3 checksum if enabled and the VLAN tag, if applicable. The raw checksum can be used to assist in the
verification of checksums in unsupported layer 3 protocols. RX Command C provides additional information required for
wakeup support.

When set, this bit indicates that the received frame has a Multicast address.
Note: If the least significant bit of the most significant byte of the destination MAC
address is 1b, then the address is multicast. This bit is not set for a
broadcast address.
23 FVTG Frame is VLAN tagged
When set, this bit indicates a VLAN tag was extracted from the frame. The tag is
stored in the VLAN Tag field of RX Command B.
22 RED Receive Error Detected
When set, this bit indicates that an error was found in the received frame. One or
more of the following fields will be set: FCS, ALN, RXE, LONG, RUNT, RWT, ICE,
TCE.
21 RWT Receive Watchdog Timer Expired
When set, this bit indicates the received frame was longer than 11,264 bytes and was
truncated by the MAC.
20 RUNT Short/Runt Frame
When set, this bit indicates that frame was prematurely terminated before the collision
window (64 bytes). Runt frames are passed on to the Host only if the Store Bad
Frames bit is set in the FIFO Controller RX FIFO Control Register (FCT_RX_CTL).
This bit is also set when a short frame has been received.
19 LONG Frame Too Long
When set, this bit indicates that the frame length exceeds the size specified in the
Maximum Frame Size (MAX_SIZE) field of the MAC Receive Register (MAC_RX).
This is only a frame too long indication and will not cause the frame reception to be
truncated.
18 RXE RX Error
When set, this bit indicates that a receive error (internal PHY RX error signal
asserted) was detected during frame reception.
17 ALN Alignment Error
When set, this bit indicates that the frame contained a non-integer multiple of 8 bits
and the frame had an FCS Error.
Note: Valid only for 10/100 mode.
16 FCS FCS Error
When set, this bit indicates that a FCS error was detected. This bit is also set when
the internal PHY RX error signal is asserted during the reception of a frame even
though the FCS may be correct. This bit is not valid if the received frame is a Runt
frame or the Receive Watchdog Timer Expired.
15 UAM Unicast Frame
When set, this bit indicates that the received frame has a Unicast address.
14 ICSM Ignore TCP/UDP/ICMP/IGMP Checksum
When set, this bit indicates that the hardware was unable to calculate a UDP, TCP,
ICMP or IGMP checksum for the packet. This implies that the value of TCE is “don’t
care”.
13:0 LEN Frame Length
The size, in bytes, of the corresponding received frame. Size of the frame received
from the network.
Note: If the FCS Stripping bit of the MAC Receive Register (MAC_RX) is enabled,
this value is decremented by four bytes.

APPLICATION NOTE: It is possible for a received wakeup frame to cause a USB remote wakeup but not pass the
filtering rules programmed in the RFE. In order to obviate the need for system software to
implement the RFE filtering rules on a received wakeup frame, the RFE Filter Fail bit has
been provided. This serves as an additional condition for dropping a frame such as ICE or
TCE in RX Command A.
APPLICATION NOTE: Due to race conditions relating to when the device suspends relative to the reception of
received data frames, the wakeup frame may have frame(s) preceding it in the FIFO. A
pathological worst case can exist in which the RX FIFO is completely filled with data frames
and drops the wakeup frame due to FIFO overflow error.
6.1.3 FLUSHING THE RX FIFO
The device allows for the Host to the flush the entire contents of the FCT RX FIFO. When a flush is activated, the read
and write pointers of the RX FIFO are returned to their reset state.
Before flushing the RX FIFO, the device’s receiver must be stopped, as specified in Section 6.1.3.1. Once the receiver
stop completion is confirmed, the FCT RX Enable is cleared in the FIFO Controller RX FIFO Control Register (FCT_RX-
_CTL) to stop RX FIFO operation. The FCT RX Disabled bit and the RX Disabled Interrupt (RX_DIS_INT) (if enabled)

SUSPEND3 is used and Store Wakeup Frame (STORE_WAKE) is set.
14 RFE_FAIL RFE Filter Fail
When set, this field indicates that the received wakeup frame did not pass RFE filter
rules.
This bit only has meaning when both Always Pass Wakeup Frame (PASS_WKP) and
Store Wakeup Frame (STORE_WAKE) are set and the device is in SUSPEND3.
Note: This bit should never be set when Wakeup Frame Received is not set. It is
not possible for a non-wake up frame to fail RFE filtering and still be
transmitted to the host as they would have been discarded by the FCT RX
FIFO.

assert when the RX FIFO hardware has completed the disabling process. The FCT RX RESET bit can then be set in
the FIFO Controller RX FIFO Control Register (FCT_RX_CTL) to initiate the flush operation. This bit is cleared by the
hardware when the flush operation has completed.
After the RX FIFO has been flushed, the receiver may be restarted, as specified in Section 6.1.3.1. RX FIFO operation
may then be restarted by asserting the FCT RX Enable bit.
6.1.3.1 Stopping and Starting the Receiver
To stop the receiver, the Host must clear the Receiver Enable (RXEN) bit in the MAC Receive Register (MAC_RX).
When the receiver is halted, the Receiver Disabled (RXD) bit and the RX Disabled Interrupt (RX_DIS_INT) (if enabled)
will assert. Once stopped, the host software shall flush the RX FIFO. The Host must re-enable the receiver by setting
the Receiver Enable (RXEN) bit.
6.1.3.2 Flow Control
The FCT supports 802.3 flow control. The FCT can trigger the MAC to transmit a pause frame based upon programma-
ble FIFO thresholds.
The FCT provides flow control on and flow control off signals to the MAC. These signals are asserted based upon the
amount of data stored in the RX FIFO and the contents of the FCT Flow Control Threshold Register (FCT_FLOW).
When the amount of FIFO data exceeds the value specified by Flow Control On Threshold field of the FCT Flow Control
Threshold Register (FCT_FLOW), the internal flow control on signal is asserted. The MAC may then (depending on the
setting of the TX Flow Control Enable (TX_FCEN) of the Flow Control Register (FLOW)) transmit a Pause frame to
instruct its link partner to halt transmission.
At some point in the future, the amount of FIFO data will fall below the value specified by Flow Control Off Threshold
field of the FCT Flow Control Threshold Register (FCT_FLOW). This, in turn, causes the internal flow control off signal
to the MAC to assert. The MAC may then (depending on the setting of TX_FCEN) transmit a Pause frame with a value
of zero. Upon reception of the pause frame, the link partner resumes transmission.
APPLICATION NOTE: In order to avoid frame drops in the RX FIFO when using jumbo frames with flow control the
maximum frame size should be restricted to 4 KB or less. Consider the scenario where the
flow control threshold is set to 4 KB. The reception of the first 4 KB frame triggers the
transmission of a Pause frame. However, the Pause frame may be blocked if the TX path is
at that moment in the process of transmitting a 4 KB packet. While the transmitter is sending
its jumbo a frame a second jumbo frame may be received followed by a third frame before
the partner has processed the Pause frame. A larger jumbo frame can result in frame drops
which would require retransmissions by a higher layer protocol in such a corner case.
6.2 TX Path (USB to Ethernet)
The 12 KB TX FIFO buffers USB Bulk Out packets received by the URX. The FCT is responsible for extracting the Ether-
net frames embedded in the USB Bulk Out Packets and passing them to the MAC. The Ethernet frames are segmented
across the USB packets by the host software.
The FCT receives valid USB bulk out packets from the URX and writes them into the TX FIFO. The write side of the
FCT does not perform any processing on the USB packet data. No provisions for rewind of these packets on the write
side is required, as the URX manages its own buffer RAM, URX FIFO, and performs rewinds in the event that the Bulk
Note: RX Disabled Interrupt (RX_DIS_INT) will persist until the FCT RX Disabled status bit is cleared. The
Receiver Disabled (RXD) status bit in the MAC Receive Register (MAC_RX) must also be cleared in order
for RX_DIS_INT to de-assert. The RX Disabled Interrupt (RX_DIS_INT) is set in the Interrupt Status Reg-
ister (INT_STS) and is also visible to the Host via the Interrupt Endpoint.
Note: RX Disabled Interrupt (RX_DIS_INT) will persist until the Receiver Disabled (RXD) status bit is cleared.
The FCT RX Disabled status bit in the FIFO Controller RX FIFO Control Register (FCT_RX_CTL) must
also be cleared in order for RX_DIS_INT to de-assert. The RX Disabled Interrupt (RX_DIS_INT) is set in
the Interrupt Status Register (INT_STS) and is also visible via the Interrupt Endpoint.

Out Packet is errored and needs to be retransmitted by the Host. When the FCT writes the Ethernet frame into the FCT
TX FIFO RAM, it prepends a DWORD in front of the TX Command Words, used for internal processing, that contains
the length of the Ethernet frame.
The read side of the FCT TX FIFO is responsible for extracting the Ethernet frames.
The Ethernet frames may have been split across multiple USB buffers, as shown in Figure 6-2 which illustrates how
frames are stored in the URX FIFO. Figure 6-3 illustrates how Ethernet frames are stored in the FCT TX FIFO after being
read and assembled from the URX FIFO.
APPLICATION NOTE: Software shall not attempt to flush the FCT TX FIFO if there are pending IN transactions.

6.2.1 TX COMMAND FORMAT
Each buffer starts with two TX Command DWORDs, TX Command A and TX Command B, which precede the data to
be transmitted. The TX Commands instructs the FCT on the handling of the associated buffer.
The formats of TX Command A and TX Command B are shown in Table 6-4 and Table 6-5, respectively.
TX Command A contains the frame length and information to instruct how the frame must be processed. TX Command
B provides the VLAN Tag and Maximum Segment Size. The former is needed when it is desired to have a VLAN ID
inserted into the frame. The latter is used when Large Send Offload is specified. Please refer to Section 6.2.5, "VLAN
Support," on page 53 and Section 6.2.8, "Large Send Offload (LSO)," on page 55 for further details on these features.

Note: This bit has no meaning if LSO is enabled.
24 IVTG Insert VLAN Tag
When set, this bit instructs the FCT to insert a VLAN tag into the frame.
23 RVTG Replace VLAN Tag
This bit only applies if the TX frame has a pre-existing VLAN tag and the IVTG bit is

When set, this bit causes the VLAN that exists in the frame to be overwritten by VLAN
Tag . Otherwise, a second tag shall be inserted between the source address and the
pre-existing tag.
22 FCS Insert FCS and Pad
When set, an FCS is generated and inserted for the frame.The MAC will insert
padding if the frame is less than 64 bytes.
If this bit is not set, then the MAC will never insert any padding and will assume the
frame has an FCS.
Note: It is not valid to enable checksum offloads or VLAN insertion when this bit
is cleared. Doing so shall result in the frame being erroneous and at a
minimum having an incorrect FCS.
Note: Zero-es are always used for padding.

6.2.2 TX DATA FORMAT
The TX data section begins immediately after TX Command B. TX data is contiguous until the end of the buffer. The
buffer may end on a byte boundary. Unused bytes at the end of the packet will not be sent to the MAC for transmission.
6.2.3 FCT ACTIONS ON TX FIFO READ
The FCT performs basic sanity checks on the correctness of the buffer configuration, as described in Section 6.2.4, "TX
Error Detection," on page 53. Errors in this regard indicate the TX path is out of sync, which is catastrophic and requires
a reinitialization of the TX path. A TX error can only be caused by a host software error.
The FCT performs the following steps when extracting an Ethernet frame from the TX FIFO:
Strip out Frame Length DWORD
Strip out TX Command A
Strip out TX Command B
Based upon the buffer size field of TX Command A, the FCT can numerically determine any unused bytes in the
last word of the buffer. When transferring these respective DWORDs to the MAC, the FCT adjusts the byte
enables accordingly.
Configuration information required by the MAC from TX Command A is sent to it by the FCT through sideband
channels.
Unlike the write side, the read side of the TX FIFO supports rewinds. The rewind_fr and release_fr signals from the MAC
instruct the FCT on what actions to take on the TX FIFO buffer. The rewind_fr signal is asserted by the MAC when the
frame must be re-transmitted due to a collision. When this signal is asserted, the FCT adjusts its internal read pointer
to the start of the buffer to facilitate retransmission of the frame to the MAC. The release_fr signal is asserted by the
MAC when the frame has been successfully transmitted or the maximum number of collisions has occurred. On asser-
tion of release_fr, the FCT will purge the buffer from the TX FIFO through adjustment of its internal pointers.
19:0 LEN Frame Length [19:0]
This field indicates the size of the frame to be transmitted.
Note: If Insert FCS and Pad is not set in this Command Word, then minimum
transmit frame length must be at least 32 bytes. Values less than 32 bytes
specified in this field when Insert FCS and Pad is clear may yield untoward
operation and unexpected results.

TX Command B[31:30] is not 0 (reserved bits)
6.2.5 VLAN SUPPORT
The FCT supports insertion and manipulation of VLAN tags in transmitted frames. The FCT will insert a VLAN tag when
the Insert VLAN Tag bit is set in TX Command A. In this case, the FCT will insert the tag specified by the VLAN Tag field
in TX Command B. The type field used is the default VLAN type or 8100h. An additional VLAN type can be specified by
the VLAN Type Register (VLAN_TYPE).
The FCT can also be instructed to replace a frame’s VLAN tag. This occurs when the Replace VLAN Tag bit is set in TX
Command A. In this case, the FCT will replace the existing tag with the one specified by the VLAN Tag field.
If the frame is already tagged, the FCT will insert a second VLAN tag if the Insert VLAN Tag is set and Replace VLAN
Tag is clear. The new tag will be inserted between the source address and the original VLAN tag.
6.2.6 FCS GENERATION
The TX FCT shall generate an FCS for all transmitted frames when Insert FCS and Pad bit is set in TX Command A.
Note: The FCT can be configured to stall the Bulk Out pipe when a Transmit Error is detected. This is accom-
plished via the Stall Bulk-Out Pipe Disable (SBP) bit of the Hardware Configuration Register (HW_CFG).
Note: A TX Error is a catastrophic condition that can only be caused by a host software error. The device should
be reset in order to recover from it.
Note: The Replace VLAN Tag bit has no meaning if the frame does not have a preexisting VLAN tag.
Note: The VLAN insertion and replacement occurs as a frame is read out of the FIFO.

6.2.7 TRANSMIT CHECKSUM OFFLOAD
The FCT is capable of offloading the generation of IP, ICMP/ICMPV6, IGMP, TCP, and UDP checksums for transmitted
frames. The offload is enabled via the IP Checksum Offload Enable and TCP/UDP Checksum Offload Enable bits of TX
Command A. Table 6-6 summarizes the transmit checksum offload capabilities.
Note 6-1 Fragmentation is not supported. Hop-by-Hop, Destination, and Routing options are supported.
Please refer to Section 7.2, "Checksum Offload," on page 67 for a discussion of the implementation of the checksum
offload. Section 7.2 specifically addresses the receive checksum offload case. The pseudo header formats and scope
of the checksum, however, are the same for both receive and transmit offload operations.
6.2.7.1 Configuration
In order to utilize the checksum offload, the host software performs the following steps:
1. Host software receives an IP packet from the application. The software must determine if a TCP or UDP packet
is encapsulated.
2. The driver must indicate the checksum calculation to be offloaded by setting the proper bits in TX Command A.
For IP checksum offload, the IP Checksum Offload Enable bit is set. For TCP or UDP checksum offload, the TCP/
UDP Checksum Offload Enable bit is set. To enable ICMP and IGMP checksums the ICMP/ICMPV6 Checksum
Offload Enable and IGMP Checksum Offload Enable bits are set respectively.

6.2.8 LARGE SEND OFFLOAD (LSO)
Large send offload (LSO), also known as TCP Segmentation, allows the TX FCT to segment a large TCP packet into
multiple Ethernet frames. This feature relieves a significant burden on Host CPU resources.
The assertion of the Large Send Offload Enable bit in TX Command A enables this feature in the FCT. The size of the
final Ethernet frames are determined by the Maximum Segment Size field in TX Command B, and the size of the encap-
sulating headers. Figure 6-4 illustrates a high level view of the TCP segmentation process.
The TX FCT performs the following operations:
Breaks the large TCP packet into segments
Creates the Ethernet Header
Creates the IP Header
Creates the TCP Header
Calculates the IP checksum (IPv4 only)
Calculates the TCP checksum
FIGURE 6-4: TCP SEGMENTATION

DS00001993D-page 56 2015 - 2017 Microchip Technology Inc.
The TCP payload stored in URX buffer RAM is preceded by template headers. They are composed of Ethernet, IP, and
TCP headers. The template header may not exceed 256 bytes. The FCT copies the template headers and stores them
in the LSO Template Header RAM. They are used as the basis for the headers of all future segments.
The following formats are supported for LSO.

6.2.8.1 Configuration
In order to prepare the FCT for LSO, the following steps must be taken by the Host software.
1. The protocol stack receives a block of data from the application into its own local buffer. Sufficient space is
reserved in the local buffer for the construction of the TX Command Words and template headers prior to the
TCP payload.
2. Template headers are constructed and inserted in front of the TCP payload in the local buffer. Software must
ensure the following requirements are met in the template headers:
- The IPv4 MF bit is not set.
- The IPv4 Fragment Offset field is zero.
- The IPv4, or IPv6, packet length is set to zero.
- The IPv4 Identification field is set appropriately.
- The TCP Sequence Number field is set to identify the first byte of the TCP payload.
- The TCP FIN bit is set as appropriate for the last packet of the segment.
- The TCP PSH bit is set as appropriate for the last packet of the segment.
- The TCP flags URG, RST, and SYN are not set. The urgent pointer is set to zero.
3. Software must then configure the TX Command Words as follows to enable Large Send Offload:
- The Large Send Offload Enable bit is set in TX Command A.
- The Maximum Segment Size field is set in TX Command A. The MSS indicates the size of the packet data
that is being encapsulated. This value does not include the Ethernet header, IP header, or TCP header.
- If VLAN operation is supported, then the Insert VLAN Tag bit, Replace VLAN Tag bit, and the VLAN Tag
field must be set appropriately in TX Command B.
4. Software transmits the contents of its local buffer to the device via the USB interface. Subsequent data may be
transmitted via the USB interface, depending on the size of the local buffer and the total size of the data to be
transmitted from the application.
Note: LSO is not supported for UDP packets.
Note: IP tunneling is not supported for LSO.
Note: Steps 1. and 2., with the exception of reservation of space for the TX Command Words, may be accom-
plished by the Host operating system.

6.2.8.2 Processing
The FCT recognizes that it has received a frame for LSO by the assertion of the Large Send Offload Enable bit in TX
Command A when it reads the command word out of URX Buffer RAM. The FCT copies and stores the template header.
For subsequent segments, headers based upon the template header are inserted. Additionally, a frame length word is
constructed for each segment. With the exception of the last segment, the length for all segments will equal to the Max-
imum Segment Size.
Figure 6-5 illustrates how frame data is stored in the TX FIFO when LSO is enabled. The total size of the packet requires
four segments to be created. The last segment having a size less than the Maximum Segment Size.
FIGURE 6-5: LSO TX FIFO FRAME STORAGE
LAN7850
DS00001993D-page 58 2015 - 2017 Microchip Technology Inc.
The FCT is responsible for performing the following functions for the LSO:
1. Compute the IP checksum (IPv4)
2. Compute the IP pseudo-header
3. Compute the TCP checksum
4. Compute the IP packet length
5. Compute the IP Identification field (IPv4 only)
6. Compute the TCP Sequence Number field
7. If there are any IP options, the FCT copies them unmodified into each packet. Likewise, any TCP options are
also copied unmodified into each TCP packet.
8. Set the TCP FIN and PSH bits accordingly
9. VLAN tag processing
10. Request the MAC to generate an FCS for each frame by setting the Insert FCS and Pad in the TX Command A
it constructs for the frame.
If there is a SNAP header, the FCT must update the length field as required for an 802.3 frame.
The following sections break down the duties of the FCT on per segment basis for creating the frame’s headers.
6.2.8.2.1 Initial Packet Generation
For the first packet of a segment, the FCT performs the following header calculations:
IP Length = Maximum Segment Size + IP Header Size + TCP Header Size
Total Frame Length = IP Length + L2 Header + VLAN
Ethernet Length = IP Length
Compute IP Checksum (IPv4)
IP Identification = Value programmed in template IP header
Compute TCP Checksum
TCP Sequence Number = Value programmed in template TCP header
TCP FIN flag = 0
TCP PSH flag = 0
6.2.8.2.2 Intermediate Packet Generation
For the intermediary packets of a segment, the FCT performs the following header calculations:
IP Length = Maximum Segment Size + IP Header Size + TCP Header Size
Total Frame Length = IP Length + L2 Header + VLAN
Ethernet Length = IP Length
Compute IP Checksum (IPv4)
IP Identification = Increment from value in previous IP packet
Compute TCP Checksum
TCP Sequence Number = Value of previous TCP header + Maximum Segment Size
TCP FIN flag = 0
TCP PSH flag = 0
6.2.8.2.3 Final Packet Generation
For the last packet of a segment, the FCT performs the following header calculations:
Last frame TCP payload length = TCP payload length - N* Maximum Segment Size. (N is the number of previ-
ously transmitted segments.)
IP Length = Last Frame TCP Payload Length + IP Header Size + TCP Header Size
Total Frame Length = IP Length + L2 Header + VLAN
Ethernet Length = IP Length
Note: The FCT ignores the IP MF flag, NF flag, and fragment offset field. The FCT ignores the TCP URG, RST,
and SYN flags. The TCP urgent pointer is also ignored.

TCP Sequence Number = Value of previous TCP header + Maximum Segment Size

6.2.9 FLUSHING THE TX FIFO
The device allows for the Host to the flush the entire contents of the FCT TX FIFO. When a flush is activated, the internal
read and write pointers for the TX FIFO are returned to their reset state.
Before flushing the TX FIFO, the device’s transmitter must be stopped, as specified in Section 6.2.10. Once the trans-
mitter stop completion is confirmed, the FCT TX Enable bit is cleared in the FIFO Controller RX FIFO Control Register
(FCT_RX_CTL) to stop TX FIFO operation. The FCT TX Disabled bit and the TX Disabled Interrupt (TX_DIS_INT) (if
enabled) assert when the TX FIFO hardware has completed the disabling process. The FCT TX Reset bit shall then be
set in the FIFO Controller RX FIFO Control Register (FCT_RX_CTL) to initiate the flush operation. This bit is cleared by
the hardware when the flush operation has completed.
After the TX FIFO has been flushed, the transmitter may be restarted as specified in Section 6.2.10. TX FIFO operation
may then be restarted by asserting the FCT TX Enable bit.
APPLICATION NOTE: Software shall not attempt to flush the TX FIFO if there are pending URBs on the Bulk Out
EP.
6.2.10 STOPPING AND STARTING THE TRANSMITTER
To stop the transmitter, the Host must perform the following steps:
1. Software clears the FCT TX Enable bit in the FIFO Controller TX FIFO Control Register (FCT_TX_CTL).
2. Software polls the FCT TX Disabled bit in the FIFO Controller TX FIFO Control Register (FCT_TX_CTL) to con-
firm the FCT TX is disabled.
3. The FCT TX Disabled bit is set in the FIFO Controller TX FIFO Control Register (FCT_TX_CTL).
4. Software halts the MAC transmitter by clearing the Transmitter Enable (TXEN) bit in the MAC Transmit Register
(MAC_TX).
5. Software polls the Transmitter Disabled (TXD) bit in the MAC Transmit Register (MAC_TX) to confirm the MAC
transmitter is disabled.
6. The Transmitter Disabled (TXD) status bit is set to indicate that the MAC TX has halted.
APPLICATION NOTE: As an alternative to polling FCT TX Disabled and/or Transmitter Disabled (TXD), the TX
Disabled Interrupt (TX_DIS_INT) bit in the Interrupt Status Register (INT_STS) may be used.
APPLICATION NOTE: When the device is configured for half-duplex operation, it is possible for a collision to
happen after FCT TX Enable is cleared but before the frame has completed transmitted. In
this case the MAC will assert abort signaling to the FCT and the frame shall be dropped by
the FCT.
Once the TX path is stopped, the Host can optionally flush the TX FIFO as discussed in Section 6.2.9. The Host may
re-enable the transmitter by setting the Transmitter Enable (TXEN) bit in the MAC Transmit Register (MAC_TX) followed
by setting the FCT TX Enable bit in the FIFO Controller TX FIFO Control Register (FCT_TX_CTL).
If there are frames pending in the TX FIFO (i.e., the TX FIFO was not purged), the transmission will resume with this
data.
Note: TX Disabled Interrupt (TX_DIS_INT) will persist until both the FCT TX Disabled status bit and the Trans-
mitter Disabled (TXD) status bit in the MAC Transmit Register (MAC_TX) are cleared.
Note: The MAC continues to read the frame currently being transmitted from the FCT until the frame is transmit-
ted. After the frame is transmitted, the FCT TX Disabled bit will assert.

7.0 RECEIVE FILTERING ENGINE (RFE)
The RFE receives Ethernet frames from the Ethernet MAC, processes them, and passes them to the RX FCT. The RFE
is responsible for filtering the received Ethernet frames, verifying the TCP/UDP/ICMP/IGMP and IP checksum, and
removing the VLAN tag.
When receiving a frame from the MAC, the RFE will obtain the frame data and status information. Upon completion of
frame processing, the RFE encapsulates its status with the status information obtained from the MAC, and passes this
information (along with the frame data) on to the FCT in the form of RX Command A, RX Command B and RX Command
C.
The RFE, if enabled, can remove a VLAN tag from the frame. VLAN tag stripping is controlled by the Enable VLAN Tag
Stripping bit of the Receive Filtering Engine Control Register (RFE_CTL). If this bit is set, the tag will be stripped. If clear,
the RFE will not modify the frame in any way.
The RFE provides the Layer 3 Checksum (if enabled) and VLAN ID via RX Command B, while RX Command A and RX
Command C contain the frame’s status.
When the RFE determines a frame has a checksum error, it sets the appropriate error bits in RX Command A to identify
the error condition.
7.1 Frame Filtering
The RFE filters Ethernet frames by processing the Ethernet source address, Ethernet destination address, and VLAN
ID.
The following frame filtering options are supported:
Global Unicast (Receive all unicast frames)
Global Multicast (Receive all multicast frames)
Broadcast Filter (Discard all broadcast frames)
Perfect Address Filtering
Hash Address Filtering
VLAN Filtering (Untagged/VID)
7.1.1 PERFECT ADDRESS FILTERING
The RFE provides for perfect address filtering. This represents the first level of frame filtering. There are 33 addresses
available for this purpose, which are stored in the MAC Address Perfect Filter Registers (ADDR_FILTx). Each entry may
be configured as either a destination or a source address. Table 7-1 illustrates an entry.
Note: If multiple VLAN tags are present in a frame, the RFE only removes the first tag (adjacent to the MAC
source address).
Note: The FCT does not rewind frames that failed checksum validation from the FCT RX FIFO.
2015 - 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. DS00001993D-page 61
LAN7850
Destination address filtering is enabled via the Enable Destination Address Perfect Filtering (DPF) bit of the Receive
Filtering Engine Control Register (RFE_CTL). Source address filtering is enabled by the Enable Source Address Perfect
Filtering (SPF) bit. If both source and destination address filtering are enabled, then a frame will be discarded if a match
is not present for both fields. In this case, the destination address match may also occur via the hash filter.
After receiving a frame, the RFE will compare all 33 entries in the table, after parsing out the destination and source
address. Filters are added and changed via the MAC Address Perfect Filter Registers (ADDR_FILTx). The entries may
be changed during run time.
7.1.2 HASH ADDRESS FILTERING
The RFE supports imperfect filtering of the MAC destination address. This allows the number of address filters to exceed
the number provided by the perfect filters.
By default, the hash filtering is enabled for both multicast and unicast destination addresses. Hash filtering never applies
to broadcast addresses. The Enable Multicast Address Hash Filtering (MHF) and Enable Destination Address Hash Fil-
tering (DHF) bits in the Receive Filtering Engine Control Register (RFE_CTL) enables the address hash filter for the
respective frame type.
The RFE computes the hash on the destination address via a CRC-32 calculation. The hash result is used to index the
Hash Address Filter table that is stored in the VHF. Figure 7-3 illustrates the layout of the VHF and the position of the
Hash Address Filter table within it. The filter table is 16 DWORDS in length and holds up to 512 entries. Each entry is
a single bit within the 16 DWORD array.
At the start of a new frame, the CRC-32 is initialized with the value FFFFFFFFh. The CRC-32 is then updated with each
byte of the destination address.
The following algorithm is used to update the CRC-32 at that time:
Let:
^ denote the exclusive or operator.
Data [7:0] be the received data byte to be included in the checksum.
CRC[31:0] contain the calculated CRC-32 checksum.
F0 … F7 be intermediate results, calculated when a data byte is determined to be part of the CRC-32.
Calculate:
F0 = CRC[31] ^ Data[0]
F1 = CRC[30] ^ Data[1]
F2 = CRC[29] ^ Data[2]
F3 = CRC[28] ^ Data[3]
TABLE 7-1: PERFECT ADDRESS ENTRY FORMAT
BIT DESCRIPTION
49 Address Valid
When set, this bit indicates that the entry has valid data and is used in the perfect filtering.
48 Address Type
When set, this bit indicates the MAC Address represents the MAC source address. Otherwise this
entry applies to the MAC destination address.
47:0 MAC Address
This field holds the 48-bit MAC address that will be matched by the RFE.
The MAC address storage scheme matches that for the RXADDRH and RXADDRL registers, see
Table 15-4, "RX_ADDRL, RX_ADDRH Byte Ordering".
Note: The hash filter can result in false positives. Therefore, the Host must validate the destination address.

The upper 9-bits, [31:23] of the resultant CRC-32 is extracted by the RFE. This value provides the bit location in the filter
table to be examined. If the respective bit is asserted, then the frame passes the hash filter. Bits 31:28 reference the
DWORD within the table that is to be used, while bits 27:23 index the bit entry. Figure 7-1 illustrates this decoding.

DS00001993D-page 64 2015 - 2017 Microchip Technology Inc.
7.1.3 VLAN FILTERING
The RFE provides the ability to filter on the VLAN tag. A VLAN tag is present when the type field matches the value
indicated by the VLAN Type Register (VLAN_TYPE) or 8100h.
When multiple VLAN tags are present, the RFE only considers the first tag. This is defined as the tag immediately adja-
cent to the source address.
The RFE may be configured to discard frames or pass frames that do not have a VLAN tag. This is controlled by the
Untagged Frame Filtering (UF) bit of the Receive Filtering Engine Control Register (RFE_CTL).
When the RFE encounters a tagged frame, the VLAN tag is stripped. The VLAN ID is placed into the VLAN Tag field of
RX Command B and the Frame is VLAN tagged bit of RX Command A is set.
The 12-bit VID is extracted from the VLAN tag and used for VLAN filtering if the Enable VLAN Filtering (VF) bit of the
Receive Filtering Engine Control Register (RFE_CTL) is set. The VID maps to a bit in the VLAN ID Filter Table contained
in the VMF. Figure 7-2 illustrates the mapping. If the corresponding bit is set, then the frame passes the VLAN filtering.
If filtering is enabled, and the VID is not present in the VLAN ID Filter Table (mapped bit is clear), then the frame is
dropped.

7.1.4 VHF ORGANIZATION
The VHF RAM contains the tables necessary to perform VLAN filtering and hash based destination address filtering.
Figure 7-2 shows the locations of the VLAN filter table and the Hash filter table. The table’s contents are addressed on
a DWORD boundary.
VHF entries are added and changed via the data port registers. The Data Port Select Register (DP_SEL) is used to
specify the VHF RAM. The VHF entries may be changed during run time.
After a reset event, the RFE will automatically initialize the contents of the VHF to 0h. While the initialization is in prog-
ress, data port accesses to this RAM will be wait stated.

7.2 Checksum Offload
The RFE supports the offloading of the IP checksum, TCP/UDP checksum, and a L3 checksum. Both IPv4 and IPv6
are supported. The RFE supports the following IEEE 802.3 frame types:
Type II Ethernet frames
Ethernet SNAP frames
802.1q VLAN tags are supported. The RFE is capable of recognizing up to two VLAN tags and excludes them from the
checksum calculations. The type used to recognize a VLAN tag is defined by the VLAN Type Register (VLAN_TYPE).
This value defaults to 8100h.
7.2.1 IP CHECKSUM
A value of 0800h in the type field indicates the frame is IPv4. A value of 86DDh in the type field indicates the frame is
IPv6.
IP checksum offload is enabled when the Enable IP Checksum Validation bit of the Receive Filtering Engine Control
Register (RFE_CTL) is set. If an IP checksum is found to be erroneous, the IP Checksum Error bit in RX Command A
is asserted and the RFE signals the FCT to abort the frame. The IP Checksum Error will also be asserted if the IP header
is less than 20 bytes in size, as indicated by the IP Header Length.
The IP checksum is the 16-bit one’s complement of the one’s complement sum of all 16-bit groups in the IP header. The
checksum is verified by calculating he 16-bit one’s complement sum across the IP header. This calculation includes the
IP checksum itself. If the final result is FFFFh, then the packet has a valid IP checksum.
7.2.2 LAYER 3 CHECKSUM
The Layer 3 checksum and TCP/UDP checksum are enabled when the Enable TCP/UDP Checksum Validation bit of
the Receive Filtering Engine Control Register (RFE_CTL) is set. The Layer 3 checksum and IGMP checksum are
enabled when the Enable IGMP Checksum Validation bit of the Receive Filtering Engine Control Register (RFE_CTL)
is set. Likewise the Layer 3 checksum and ICMP checksum are enabled when the Enable ICMP Checksum Validation
bit of the Receive Filtering Engine Control Register (RFE_CTL) is set.
The Layer 3 checksum is the 16-bit one’s complement sum of the entire layer 3 packet. The checksum is calculated 16
bits at a time. In the case of an odd sized frame, an extra byte of zero is used to pad up to 16 bits.
Consider the following packet: DA, SA, Type, B0, B1, B2 … BN, FCS
Let [A, B] = A*256 + B
If the packet has an even number of octets then:
checksum = [B1, B0] + C0 + [B3, B2] + C1 + … + [BN, BN-1] + CN-1
Where C0, C1,... CN-1 are the carry out results of the intermediate sums.
If the packet has an odd number of octets then:
checksum = [B1, B0] + C0 + [B3, B2] + C1 + … + [0, BN] + CN-1
Note: The IP header may be larger than 5 DWORDs (20 bytes) if IP options are present.
IPv6 does not have an IP checksum.
LAN7850
DS00001993D-page 68 2015 - 2017 Microchip Technology Inc.
Figure 7-5 illustrates the scope of the Layer 3 checksum over a type II Ethernet frame. The calculation starts after the
type field and does not include the FCS.
Consider the case where the frame is a 802.3 Ethernet frame with a VLAN tag. The RFE bypasses DA, SA, VLAN tag,
SNAP header, and type fields. The calculation begins at the byte immediately following the type field. The calculation
does not include the FCS.
The checksum is placed in the Raw L3 Checksum field in RX Command B. This raw checksum is useful in cases such
as when the layer 3 protocol is not IP or IP fragmented packets.
FIGURE 7-5: LAYER 3 CHECKSUM - TYPE II ETHERNET
FIGURE 7-6: LAYER 3 CHECKSUM - 802.3 FRAME
Note: If neither the Enable TCP/UDP Checksum Validation, Enable ICMP Checksum Validation nor Enable IGMP
Checksum Validation bits of the Receive Filtering Engine Control Register (RFE_CTL) are set, then the
value of the Raw L3 Checksum field is undefined.

7.2.3 TCP CHECKSUM
If the RFE detects a TCP header, it will attempt to verify the TCP checksum when the Enable TCP/UDP Checksum Val-
idation bit in the Receive Filtering Engine Control Register (RFE_CTL) is set. TCP is indicated when the IP Protocol is 6.
The TCP checksum covers the TCP header, TCP data, and pseudo header. The pseudo header consists of the Source
IP Address, Destination IP Address, IP Protocol Number, and the total number of bytes in the TCP header and data.
The latter field is calculated as follows:
Total Bytes in TCP Header and Data = IP Total Length - 4*(IP Header Length)
Because the checksum is done in 16-bit quantities, a pad byte of zero may need to be placed adjacent to the last data
byte. This is required in the case where the total number of bytes is odd. Figure 7-7 (IPv4) and Figure 7-8 (IPv6) illustrate
the scope of the TCP checksum.
The RFE calculates a 16-bit one’s complement sum over the TCP header, TCP data, and pseudo header. If the final
result is FFFFh, then the packet passes the TCP checksum. If the final result is not FFFFh, then the checksum fails and
the TCP/UDP/ICMP/IGMP Checksum Error bit is set.
If the IP packet is fragmented, the TCP checksum is not validated. A fragmented packet is determined by the following
conditions.
The first fragment is indicated by the IP header’s MF flag being set and fragment offset having a value of zero.
Subsequent fragments are determined by the IP Fragment Offset field having a value greater than zero.
Note: There is no length field in the TCP header that can be used. This must be calculated via the IP header.
Note: See RFC 1624 for further details on checksum computation.

7.2.4 UDP CHECKSUM
If the RFE detects a UDP header, it will attempt to verify the UDP checksum when the Enable TCP/UDP Checksum
Validation bit in the Receive Filtering Engine Control Register (RFE_CTL) is set. UDP is indicated when the IP protocol
is 17. The UDP checksum calculation is nearly identical to the TCP checksum procedure. The scope of the UDP check-
sum is shown in Figure 7-9 (IPv4) and Figure 7-10 (IPv6).
The UDP checksum is optional for IPv4. A value of 0000h indicates that the checksum is not used. If IPv4 is used, then
the TCP/UDP/ICMP/IGMP Checksum Error status bit is not asserted after encountering this condition.
A zero UDP checksum is not valid for IPv6. When IPv6 is used, a checksum of 0000h results in the assertion of the TCP/
UDP/ICMP/IGMP Checksum Error bit.
If the IP packet is fragmented, the UDP checksum is not validated. See Section 7.2.3 for further details on how to identify
a fragmented packet.
Note: The UDP Length field in the pseudo header is equivalent to the UDP message length in the UDP header.
Therefore, unlike the TCP case, the length does not have to be calculated numerically from the IP header.
Note: Typically, when the UDP checksum generation results in 0000h, a value of FFFFh (0-) is inserted into the
UDP checksum field.

LAN7850
7.2.5 ICMP CHECKSUM
If the RFE detects an ICMP header, it will attempt to verify the ICMP checksum when configured. ICMP is indicated
when the IP protocol is 1 for an IPv4 datagram. The ICMP checksum is the 16-bit ones complement of the one's com-
plement sum of the ICMP message starting with the ICMP Type field.
ICMPv6 is utilized with IPv6. This is indicated by a next header value of 58. In this case the checksum is the 16-bit one's
complement of the one's complement sum of the entire ICMPv6 message, starting with the ICMPv6 message type field,
and prepended with a “pseudo-header” of IPv6 header fields. The inclusion of a pseudo-header in the ICMPv6 check-
sum is a change from IPv4. See Figure 7-8 for a definition of the IPv6 pseudo-header. The Next Header value used in
the pseudo-header is 58.
ICMP checksum validation is enabled by setting the Enable ICMP Checksum Validation bit in the Receive Filtering
Engine Control Register (RFE_CTL).
If the IP packet is fragmented, the ICMP checksum is not validated. See Section 7.2.3 for further details on how to iden-
tify a fragmented packet.
7.2.6 IGMP CHECKSUM
If the RFE detects an IGMP header, it will attempt to verify the IGMP checksum when configured. IGMP is indicated
when the IP protocol is 2. The checksum is the 16-bit one's complement of the one's complement sum of the whole
IGMP message (the entire IP payload).
IGMP checksum validation is enabled by setting the Enable IGMP Checksum Validation bit in the Receive Filtering
Engine Control Register (RFE_CTL).
If the IP packet is fragmented, the IGMP checksum is not validated. See Section 7.2.3 for further details on how to iden-
tify a fragmented packet.

8.0 10/100/1000 ETHERNET MAC
The Ethernet Media Access controller (MAC) incorporates the essential protocol requirements for operating an Ether-
net/IEEE 802.3-compliant node and provides an interface to the Ethernet PHY. The MAC can operate in full-duplex 1000
Mbps or half/full-duplex 10/100 Mbps mode.
When operating in half-duplex mode, the MAC complies fully with Section 4 of ISO/IEC 8802-3 (ANSI/IEEE standard)
and ANSI/IEEE 802.3 standards. When operating in full-duplex mode, the MAC complies with IEEE 802.3x full-duplex
operation standard.
The MAC provides programmable enhanced features designed to minimize Host supervision, bus utilization, and pre-
or post-message processing. These features include the ability to disable retries after a collision, dynamic FCS (Frame
Check Sequence) generation on a frame-by-frame basis, automatic pad field insertion and deletion to enforce minimum
frame size attributes, and automatic retransmission and detection of collision frames.
The primary attributes of the MAC Function are:
Interfaces to Ethernet PHY
Transmit and receive message data encapsulation
Framing (frame boundary delimitation, frame synchronization)
Error detection (physical medium transmission errors)
FCS checking/stripping/generation
Preamble stripping/generation
Media access management
Medium allocation (collision detection, except in full-duplex operation)
Contention resolution (collision handling, except in full-duplex operation)
Flow control during full-duplex mode
Decoding of control frames (PAUSE command) and disabling the transmitter
Generation of control frames (PAUSE command)
Maintains minimum inter packet gap (IPG)
Magic packet/Wake-On-LAN (WOL) detection
Remote wakeup frame detection
Neighbor Solicitation offload
ARP offload
Implements Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) and Remote Monitoring (RMON) management
counter sets
The transmit and receive data paths are separate within the device from the MAC to the USB interface, allowing the
highest performance, especially in full-duplex mode.
On the backend, the MAC interfaces with the PHY via internal GMII and MII ports. The GMII port is used for 1000 Mbps
operation, while the MII port is used for 10/100 Mbps operation. The device’s registers also provide a mechanism for
accessing the PHY’s registers through the internal SMI (Serial Management Interface) bus.
The FCT RX and TX FIFO, as well as the URX FIFO and UTX FIFO, allow increased packet buffer storage to the MAC.
The FIFOs are a conduit between the USB interface and the MAC through which all transmitted and received data and
various command/status information is passed. Deep FIFOs allow a high degree of latency tolerance relative to the var-
ious transport and OS software stacks, reducing and minimizing overrun conditions.
8.1 Collision Handling
When a collision is detected, the transmission of data is halted and a Jam pattern is transmitted. After a collision, the
MAC will attempt to retransmit the frame. The time the frame is retransmitted is determined by the “truncated binary
exponential back-off” algorithm. The back-off limit is selected by the Back Off Limit (BOLMT) field of the Hardware Con-
figuration Register (HW_CFG). The units of the delay is slot times, where a slot time is equivalent to a 512-bit time. The
MAC also controls the rewind_fr and release_fr signals to the FCT. The rewind_fr signal is used to support frame
retransmission after a collision occurs. After a frame has been successfully transmitted or aborted due to excessive col-
lisions or late collisions, the release_fr signal asserts to indicate the MAC is done processing the current frame and is
ready for the next frame.

8.2 Flow Control
The device’s Ethernet MAC supports full-duplex flow control using the pause operation and control frame. Full-duplex
flow control is also supported based on manual transmission of flow control frames or via automatic transmission of flow
control frames, as determined by high and low watermark threshold levels in the RX FIFO.
8.2.1 FULL-DUPLEX FLOW CONTROL
The pause operation inhibits data transmission of data frames for a specified period of time. A Pause operation consists
of a frame containing the globally assigned multicast address (01-80-C2-00-00-01) or the programmed unicast address,
the PAUSE opcode, and a parameter indicating the quantum of slot time (512 bit times) to inhibit data transmissions.
The PAUSE parameter may range from 0 to 65,535 slot times.
The RX Flow Control Enable (RX_FCEN) bit of the Flow Control Register (FLOW) enables the receive MAC flow control
function. When this bit is set, the Ethernet MAC logic, on receiving a frame with the reserved multicast address or uni-
cast address and PAUSE opcode, inhibits data frame transmissions for the length of time indicated. If a Pause request
is received while a transmission is in progress, then the pause will take effect after the transmission is complete. Control
frames are received and processed by the MAC. The setting of the Forward Pause Frames (FPF) bit of the Flow Control
Register (FLOW) determines whether or not they are passed on.
Transmit pause frames may be generated manually, or automatically, based on RX FIFO threshold levels. Setting the
Force Transmission of TX Flow Control Frame (FORCE_FC) bit of the Flow Control Register (FLOW) will initiate the
transmission of a Pause Control Frame. The Pause time is specified in the Pause Time (FCPT) field of the Flow Control
Register (FLOW).
The TX Flow Control Enable (TX_FCEN) bit of the Flow Control Register (FLOW) enables automatic generation of trans-
mit pause frames. When this bit is set, the MAC uses the internal flow control on/off signals generated by the FCT to
trigger pause frame transmission. The FCT signals the MAC whenever the threshold values programmed in the Flow
Control Register (FLOW) are crossed. When the RX FIFO reaches the level set in the Flow Control On Threshold field
of FCT Flow Control Threshold Register (FCT_FLOW), the FCT asserts the internal flow control on signal, which causes
the MAC to transmit a pause frame containing the pause time specified in the Pause Time (FCPT) field of the FLOW
register. When the RX FIFO drops below the level set in the Flow Control Off Threshold field of FCT_FLOW, the FCT
asserts the internal flow control off signal, which causes the MAC to transmit a pause frame with a pause time of zero.
The device will only send another pause frame when the RX FIFO level falls below the Flow Control Off Threshold and
then exceeds the Flow Control On Threshold again.
8.3 Wake On LAN (WOL) Event Detection
8.3.1 OVERVIEW
The following bits of the Wakeup Control and Status Register 1 (WUCSR1), when enabled, may allow a WOL event
detected by the Ethernet MAC to be asserted:
Perfect DA Frame Received (PFDA_FR)
Wakeup Frame Enable (WUEN)
Magic Packet Enable (MPEN)
Broadcast Wakeup Enable (BCAST_EN)
Similarly, the following bits of the Wakeup Control and Status Register 2 (WUCSR2), when enabled, may allow the
assertion of a WOL event:
IPv6 TCP SYN Wake Enable (IPV6_TCPSYN_WAKE_EN)
IPv4 TCP SYN Wake Enable (IPV4_TCPSYN_WAKE_EN)
Whenever Wake-On-LAN Enable (WOL_EN) is set in the Power Management Control Register (PMT_CTL) and at least
one of the previously listed enable bits is set, and the device is in the SUSPEND0 state, the following occurs when
encountering a packet whose characteristics match those specified by the enable bit(s):
Store frame in RX FIFO when in SUSPEND3
The appropriate status bits are set in Wakeup Control and Status Register 1 (WUCSR1) and Wakeup Source Reg-
ister (WK_SRC), depending of the settings of the enable bits and the characteristics of the packet.
Note: Half-duplex operation is not supported in 1000 Mbps mode.

LAN7850
A wakeup event is signaled to the host.
The Host sends resume signaling.
All wakeup status bits are cleared in Wakeup Control and Status Register 1 (WUCSR1) and Wakeup Control and
Status Register 2 (WUCSR2) if the Resume Clears Remote Wakeup Status (RES_CLR_WKP_STS) bit is set in
the Power Management Control Register (PMT_CTL).
All wakeup enable bits in Wakeup Control and Status Register 1 (WUCSR1) and Wakeup Control and Status Reg-
ister 2 (WUCSR2) are cleared if the Resume Clears Remote Wakeup Enables (RES_CLR_WKP_EN) bit is set in
the Power Management Control Register (PMT_CTL).
The device transitions to the Normal state.
The Host then examines data within the device’s registers and memory to determine what occurred.
8.3.2 DETECTION OF WOL EVENTS
The following sections describe, in general terms, each of the WOL events that may be enabled. They assume the fol-
lowing:
Resume Clears Remote Wakeup Status (RES_CLR_WKP_STS) and Resume Clears Remote Wakeup Enables
(RES_CLR_WKP_EN) bits are NOT set in the Power Management Control Register (PMT_CTL).
8.3.2.1 Perfect DA Detection
Setting the Perfect DA Wakeup Enable (PFDA_EN) bit in the Wakeup Control and Status Register 1 (WUCSR1) and
entering SUSPEND0, SUSPEND1 or SUSPEND3 states places the MAC in the Perfect DA detection mode. In this
mode, normal data reception is disabled, and detection logic within the MAC examines the destination address of each
received frame. When a frame whose destination address matches that specified by the MAC Receive Address High
Register (RX_ADDRH) and MAC Receive Address Low Register (RX_ADDRL) is received, the Perfect DA Frame
Received (PFDA_FR) bit in WUCSR1 is set, and remote wakeup is issued. The Host will then resume the device. The
Host may read WUSCR1 and WUSCR2 registers to determine the characteristics of the received packet and the con-
dition(s) that caused the remote wakeup.
The Perfect DA Wakeup Enable (PFDA_EN) bit, as well as all other enable bits in WUCSR1 and WUCSR2 must be
cleared in order to permit the MAC to resume normal receive operation. The Host must also clear all status bits in
WUCSR1 and WUCSR2 before entering the SUSPEND0, SUSPEND1 or SUSPEND3 state to monitor for the next WOL
event.
Note: Multiple status bits may be set in WUCSR and WUCSR2 for the packet. I.e., assume Perfect DA Frame
Received (PFDA_FR) and IPv4 TCP SYN Wake Enable (IPV4_TCPSYN_WAKE_EN) are set. Then Per-
fect DA Frame Received (PFDA_FR) and IPv4 TCP SYN Packet Received (IPV4_TCPSYN_RCD) will be
set when an IPv4 TCP SYN packet matching the parameters set by the SYN IPv4 Source Address Register
(SYN_IPV4_ADDR_SRC), SYN IPv4 Destination Address Register (SYN_IPV4_ADDR_DEST), and SYN
IPv4 TCP Ports Register (SYN_IPV4_TCP_PORTS) is received.
Note: If Resume Clears Remote Wakeup Status (RES_CLR_WKP_STS) is set in Power Management Control
Register (PMT_CTL), no status bits will be available for examination. To get this information Wakeup
Source Register (WK_SRC) may be consulted.
Note: More than just the Perfect DA Frame Received (PFDA_FR) bit may be set for the packet in WUCSR1 and
WUCSR2, depending on the setting of the enable bits and the packet’s characteristics.

8.3.2.2 Wakeup Frame Detection
Thirty two programmable wakeup frame filters are supported. Each filter has a 128-bit byte mask that indicates which
bytes of the frame should be compared by the MAC. A CRC-16 is calculated over these bytes. The result is then com-
pared with the filters respective CRC-16 to determine if a match exists.
Setting the Wakeup Frame Enable (WUEN) bit in the Wakeup Control and Status Register 1 (WUCSR1), places the
MAC in the Wakeup Frame detection mode. In this mode, normal data reception is disabled, and detection logic within
the MAC examines receive data for the pre-programmed Wakeup Frame patterns. When a wakeup pattern is received,
the Remote Wakeup Frame Received (WUFR) bit in the WUCSR is set, the device places itself in a fully operational
state, and remote wakeup is issued. The Host will then resume the device and read the WUSCR1 and WUCSR2 reg-
isters to determine the condition(s) that caused the remote wakeup.
The Wakeup Frame Enable (WUEN) bit, as well as all other enable bits in WUCSR1 and WUCSR2 must be cleared in
order to permit the MAC to resume normal receive operation. The Host must also clear all status bits in WUCSR1 and
WUCSR2 before entering the SUSPEND0, SUSPEND1 or SUSPEND3 state to monitor for the next WOL event.
Before putting the MAC into the Wakeup Frame detection state, the application program must provide the detection logic
with a list of sample frames and their corresponding byte masks. This information is provided by writing the Wakeup
Filter x Configuration Register (WUF_CFGx), and the Wakeup Filter x Byte Mask Registers (WUF_MASKx) for all
enabled filters. Please refer to the indicated sections for additional information on these registers.
The MAC provides 32 programmable filters that support many different receive packet patterns. Whether or not a filter
is enabled, and the destination address type of an enabled filter, is determined by the Filter Enable and Filter Address
Type fields, respectively, of the Wakeup Filter x Configuration Register (WUF_CFGx).
If remote wakeup mode is enabled, the remote wakeup function receives all frames addressed to the MAC. It then
checks each frame against the enabled filters and recognizes the frame as a remote Wakeup Frame if it passes an
enabled filters address filtering and CRC value match.
In order to determine which bytes of the frames should be checked by the CRC module, the MAC uses a programmable
byte mask and a programmable pattern offset for each of the eight supported filters.
The pattern offset defines the location of the first byte that should be checked in the frame. The byte mask is a 128-bit
field that specifies whether or not each of the 128 contiguous bytes within the frame, beginning with the pattern offset,
should be checked. If bit j in the byte mask is set, the detection logic checks byte (pattern offset + j) in the frame, other-
wise, byte (pattern offset + j) is ignored.
At the completion of the CRC-16 checking process, the CRC-16 calculated using the pattern offset and byte mask is
compared to the expected CRC-16 value associated with the filter. If a match occurs, a remote wakeup event is sig-
naled.
The pattern offset and expected CRC-16 for a particular filter is determined by the Filter Pattern Offset and Filter CRC-
16 fields, respectively, of the Wakeup Filter x Configuration Register (WUF_CFGx). The byte mask for a particular filter
is set by the Host by writing the four DWORD mask registers associated with the filter in the Wakeup Filter x Byte Mask
Registers (WUF_MASKx) block.
CRC-16 is calculated as follows:
At the start of a frame, CRC-16 is initialized with the value FFFFh. CRC-16 is updated when the pattern offset and mask
indicate the received byte is part of the checksum calculation. The following algorithm is used to update the CRC-16 at
that time:
Let:
^ denote the exclusive or operator.
Data [7:0] be the received data byte to be included in the checksum.
CRC[15:0] contain the calculated CRC-16 checksum.
F0 … F7 be intermediate results, calculated when a data byte is determined to be part of the CRC-16.
Calculate:
F0 = CRC[15] ^ Data[0]
Note: More than just the Remote Wakeup Frame Received (WUFR) bit may be set for the packet in WUCSR1
and WUCSR2, depending on the setting of the enable bits and the packet’s characteristics.

F1 = CRC[14] ^ F0 ^ Data[1]
F2 = CRC[13] ^ F1 ^ Data[2]
F3 = CRC[12] ^ F2 ^ Data[3]
F4 = CRC[11] ^ F3 ^ Data[4]
F5 = CRC[10] ^ F4 ^ Data[5]
F6 = CRC[09] ^ F5 ^ Data[6]
F7 = CRC[08] ^ F6 ^ Data[7]
The CRC-16 is updated as follows:
CRC[15] = CRC[7] ^ F7
CRC[14] = CRC[6]
CRC[13] = CRC[5]
CRC[12] = CRC[4]
CRC[11] = CRC[3]
CRC[10] = CRC[2]
CRC[9] = CRC[1] ^ F0
CRC[8] = CRC[0] ^ F1
CRC[7] = F0 ^ F2

CRC[1] = F6
CRC[0] = F7

8.3.2.3 Magic Packet Detection
Setting the Magic Packet Enable (MPEN) bit in the Wakeup Control and Status Register 1 (WUCSR1) places the MAC
in the “Magic Packet” detection mode. In this mode, normal data reception is disabled, and detection logic within the
MAC examines receive data for a Magic Packet.
When a Magic Packet is received, the Magic Packet Received (MPR) bit in the WUCSR is set, the device places itself
in a fully operational state, and remote wakeup is issued. The Host will then resume the device and read the WUSCR1
and WUCSR2 registers to determine the condition(s) that caused the remote wakeup.
The Magic Packet Enable (MPEN) bit, as well as all other enable bits in WUCSR1 and WUCSR2 must be cleared in
order to permit the MAC to resume normal receive operation. The Host must also clear all status bits in WUCSR1 and
WUCSR2 before entering the SUSPEND0, SUSPEND1 or SUSPEND3 state to monitor for the next WOL event.
In Magic Packet mode, logic within the MAC constantly monitors each frame addressed to the node for a specific Magic
Packet pattern. It checks packets with the MAC’s address or a multicast address (which includes the broadcast address)
to meet the Magic Packet requirement.
The MAC checks each received frame for the pattern 48‘hFF_FF_FF_FF_FF_FF synchronization stream after the des-
tination and source address field. Then the MAC inspects the frame for 16 repetitions of the MAC address without any
breaks or interruptions. In case of a break in the 16 address repetitions, the MAC scans for the
48‘hFF_FF_FF_FF_FF_FF pattern again in the incoming frame.
The 16 repetitions may be anywhere in the frame but must be preceded by the synchronization stream. The device will
also accept a multicast frame, as long as it detects the 16 duplications of the MAC address. If the MAC address of a
node is 00h 11h 22h 33h 44h 55h, then the MAC scans for the following data sequence in an Ethernet frame:
Destination Address Source Address ……………FF FF FF FF FF FF
00 11 22 33 44 55 00 11 22 33 44 55 00 11 22 33 44 55 00 11 22 33 44 55
00 11 22 33 44 55 00 11 22 33 44 55 00 11 22 33 44 55 00 11 22 33 44 55
00 11 22 33 44 55 00 11 22 33 44 55 00 11 22 33 44 55 00 11 22 33 44 55
00 11 22 33 44 55 00 11 22 33 44 55 00 11 22 33 44 55 00 11 22 33 44 55
…FCS
8.3.2.4 Broadcast Detection
Setting the Broadcast Wakeup Enable (BCAST_EN) bit in the Wakeup Control and Status Register 1 (WUCSR1) and
entering SUSPEND0, SUSPEND1 or SUSPEND3 states places the MAC in the Broadcast detection mode. In this
mode, normal data reception is disabled, and detection logic within the MAC examines the destination address of each
received frame. When a frame whose destination address is FF FF FF FF FF FF is received, the Broadcast Frame
Received (BCAST_FR) bit in the WUCSR is set, the device places itself in a fully operational state, and remote wakeup
is issued. The Host will then resume the device and read the WUSCR1 and WUCSR2 registers to determine the con-
dition(s) that caused the remote wakeup.
Note: x indicates “don’t care”.
Note: More than just the Magic Packet Received (MPR) bit may be set for the packet in WUCSR1 and WUCSR2,
depending on the setting of the enable bits and the packet’s characteristics.
Note: The MAC’s address is specified by the MAC Receive Address High Register (RX_ADDRH) and the MAC
Receive Address Low Register (RX_ADDRL).
2015 - 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. DS00001993D-page 81
LAN7850
The Broadcast Wakeup Enable (BCAST_EN) bit, as well as all other enable bits in WUCSR1 and WUCSR2 must be
cleared in order to permit the MAC to resume normal receive operation. The Host must also clear all status bits in
WUCSR1 and WUCSR2 before entering the SUSPEND0, SUSPEND1 or SUSPEND3 states to monitor for the next
WOL event.
8.3.3 TCP SYN DETECTION
The device supports wakeup on receiving a TCP SYN packet over a IPv4 or a IPv6 frame. The Wakeup Control and
Status Register 2 (WUCSR2) contains the bits that control this and other Windows 7 Power Management features. Two
sets of registers are used to control TCP SYN Detection - one set for IPv4 and another for IPv6. Their use is discussed
in the following sections.
The following sections describe, in general terms, each of the TCP SYN events that may be enabled. They assume that
Resume Clears Remote Wakeup Status (RES_CLR_WKP_STS) and Resume Clears Remote Wakeup Enables (RES_-
CLR_WKP_EN) bits are NOT set in the Power Management Control Register (PMT_CTL).
8.3.3.1 IPv4 TCP SYN Detection
The following registers are dedicated for use in detecting a TCP SYN packet within an IPv4 frame:
SYN IPv4 Source Address Register (SYN_IPV4_ADDR_SRC)
SYN IPv4 Destination Address Register (SYN_IPV4_ADDR_DEST)
SYN IPv4 TCP Ports Register (SYN_IPV4_TCP_PORTS)
IPv4 TCP SYN detection occurs when the IPv4 TCP SYN Wake Enable (IPV4_TCPSYN_WAKE_EN) bit is set in
Wakeup Control and Status Register 2 (WUCSR2) and the device is in the SUSPEND0, SUSPEND1 or SUSPEND3
states. When these conditions are met, logic within the MAC will process IPv4 frames whose destination address is the
device’s MAC address, a multi-cast address, or the broadcast address as follows:
A check is made for a TCP protocol match within the IPv4 header. Valid TCP packets whose SYN bit is asserted, having
an IPv4 header whose source address and destination address match those specified in the SYN IPv4 Source Address
Register (SYN_IPV4_ADDR_SRC) and the SYN IPv4 Destination Address Register (SYN_IPV4_ADDR_DEST),
respectively, and whose source port and destination port match those specified by the SYN IPv4 TCP Ports Register
(SYN_IPV4_TCP_PORTS), will cause a wakeup. Upon detecting a wakeup condition, the IPv4 TCP SYN Packet
Received (IPV4_TCPSYN_RCD) bit is set in WUSCR2, the device places itself in a fully operational state, and remote
wakeup is issued.
The Host will then resume the device and read the WUSCR1 and WUCSR2 registers to determine the condition(s) that
caused the remote wakeup.
Note: More than just the Broadcast Frame Received (BCAST_FR) bit may be set for the packet in WUCSR1 and
WUCSR2, depending on the setting of the enable bits, the packet’s characteristics, and the programming
of the MAC Receive Address High Register (RX_ADDRH) and the MAC Receive Address Low Register
(RX_ADDRL). I.e., if, for some reason, RX_ADDRH and RX_ADDRL retain their default values, then
Broadcast Frame Received (BCAST_FR), as well as Perfect DA Frame Received (PFDA_FR) would be
set on reception of a Broadcast frame.
Note: TCP SYN Detection should be enabled for use when the device is being programmed to enter the SUS-
PEND0, SUSPEND1 or SUSPEND3 states, in anticipation of generating a WOL event. Its use in any state
other than SUSPEND0, SUSPEND1 or SUSPEND3, may result in untoward operation and unexpected
results.
Note: The registers can be set to force a match to occur with the field its contents are being compared to. Please
refer to the register definition for details.

The IPv4 TCP SYN Wake Enable (IPV4_TCPSYN_WAKE_EN) bit, as well as all other enable bits in WUCSR1 and
WUCSR2 must be cleared in order to permit the MAC to resume normal receive operation. The Host must also clear all
status bits in WUCSR and WUCSR2 before entering the SUSPEND0, SUSPEND1 or SUSPEND3 states to monitor for
the next WOL event.
8.3.4 IPV6 TCP SYN DETECTION
The following registers are dedicated for use in detecting a TCP SYN packet within an IPv6 frame:
SYN IPv6 Source Address Register (SYN_IPV6_ADDR_SRC)
SYN IPv6 Destination Address Register (SYN_IPV6_ADDR_DEST)
SYN IPv6 TCP Ports Register (SYN_IPV6_TCP_PORTS)
IPv6 TCP SYN detection occurs when the IPv6 TCP SYN Wake Enable (IPV6_TCPSYN_WAKE_EN) bit is set in
WUCSR2 and the device is in the SUSPEND0, SUSPEND1 or SUSPEND3 states. When these conditions are met, logic
within the MAC will process IPv6 frames whose destination address is the device’s MAC address, a multi-cast address,
or the broadcast address as follows:
A check is made for a TCP protocol match within the IPv6 header (or an extension header). Valid TCP packets whose
SYN bit is asserted, having an IPv6 header whose source address and destination address match those specified in
the SYN IPv6 Source Address Register (SYN_IPV6_ADDR_SRC) and the SYN IPv6 Destination Address Register
(SYN_IPV6_ADDR_DEST), respectively, and whose TCP ports in the IPv6 payload (TCP packet) match those specified
by the SYN IPv6 TCP Ports Register (SYN_IPV6_TCP_PORTS), will cause a wakeup. Upon detecting a wakeup con-
dition, the IPv6 TCP SYN Packet Received (IPV6_TCPSYN_RCD) bit is set in WUSCR2, the device places itself in a
fully operational state, and remote wakeup is issued.
The Host will then resume the device and read the WUSCR1 and WUCSR2 registers to determine the condition(s) that
caused the remote wakeup.
The IPv6 TCP SYN Wake Enable (IPV6_TCPSYN_WAKE_EN) bit, as well as all other enable bits in WUCSR1 and
WUCSR2 must be cleared in order to permit the MAC to resume normal receive operation. The Host must also clear all
status bits in WUCSR1 and WUCSR2 before entering the SUSPEND0, SUSPEND1 or SUSPEND3 states to monitor
for the next WOL event.
Note: More than just the IPv4 TCP SYN Packet Received (IPV4_TCPSYN_RCD) bit may be set for the packet
in WUCSR1 and WUCSR2, depending on the setting of the enable bits and the packet’s characteristics.
Note: The IPv4 TCP SYN packet must be valid in order for packet detection to be signaled. The header check-
sum, TCP checksum, and FCS are calculated and all must agree with the packet contents, in order for the
packet to be considered for detection analysis.
Note: The registers can be set to force a match to occur with the protocol field its contents is being compared to.
Please refer to the register definition for details.

8.4 Always on Always Connected (AOAC)
This device supports the Connected Standby state of Microsoft’s instant-on and always-connected power model, similar
to smart-phone devices. The intent of Connected Standby is to enable a PC to resume from sleep extremely quickly -
typically less than 500 milliseconds. The performance of a resume from Connected Standby is almost always faster than
the traditional Sleep (S3) state and significantly faster than a resume from Hibernate (S4) or Shutdown (S5).
ENGINEERING NOTE: AOAC and Connected Standby were introduced for Windows 8.X operating systems.
In Connected Standby certain networking tasks are offloaded from the host CPU by the device to conserve system
power and to enable the network to maintain basic L2 connectivity. For this device, ARP and NS offloads are enabled
to minimize host wake ups. Additionally, the device is configured to detect a wakeup event and upon detection awakens
the CPU.
In the case the wake event is a wakeup frame, it is stored in the FCT RX FIFO. This is required to maintain higher layer
protocol connections and enable the host software to determine the cause of the wake up. Any frames received after
the wakeup event are also stored in the FCT RX FIFO. This coalescing of packets allows windows to process batches
of packets in a single pass without potentially breaking any protocols.
The following wake events are supported in Connected Standby.
WOL (Wakeup Frame, Magic Packet)
Broadcast Frame
Perfect DA
Link Status Connected
Link Status Disconnected
GPIO Assertion
TCP SYN
The steps for AOAC support are as follows.
1. An extended period of time expires with out an Ethernet packet or transmission or reception. The timescale is
typically in the order of seconds.
2. Driver enables SUSPEND3 in Power Management Control Register (PMT_CTL).
3. Driver enables NS Offload and ARP Offload.
4. Driver configures desired wakeup events.
5. Driver enables wakeup packet storage in FCT RX FIFO via the Store Wakeup Frame (STORE_WAKE) bit in the
Wakeup Control and Status Register 1 (WUCSR1).
6. Device is suspended by host.
8.5 Neighbor Solicitation (NS) Offload
NS Offload is a power management feature that permits the device to respond to a NS request by generating and trans-
mitting the required NA response packet. It will not result in the generation of a wake event.
The following registers are used to facilitate NS offload:
NSx IPv6 Destination Address Register (NSx_IPV6_ADDR_DEST)
NSx IPv6 Source Address Register (NSx_IPV6_ADDR_SRC)
NSx ICMPv6 Address 0 Register (NSx_ICMPV6_ADDR0)
NSx ICMPv6 Address 1 Register (NSx_ICMPV6_ADDR1)
Note: For all registers, 0<=x<=1
Note: The registers can be set to force a match to occur with the protocol field its contents is being compared to.
Please refer to the register definition for details.
LAN7850
DS00001993D-page 84 2015 - 2017 Microchip Technology Inc.
These registers are used when the NS Offload Enable (NS_OFFLOAD_EN) bit is set in Wakeup Control and Status
Register 2 (WUCSR2). When enabled, logic within the MAC shall examine all IPv6 frames whose Ethernet destination
address matches either the device’s MAC address, a multi-cast address, or is the broadcast address. Frames not meet-
ing this criteria shall be ignored.
The headers of all IPv6 frames matching the aforementioned criteria are further checked as follows. IPv6 DA is com-
pared to NSx IPv6 Destination Address Register (NSx_IPV6_ADDR_DEST) and NSx ICMPv6 Address 0 Register
(NSx_ICMPV6_ADDR0) and NSx ICMPv6 Address 1 Register (NSx_ICMPV6_ADDR1). One of the three compares
must match. IPv6 SA is compared to NSx IPv6 Source Address Register (NSx_IPV6_ADDR_SRC).
When NSx IPv6 Source Address Register (NSx_IPV6_ADDR_SRC) is set to 0h, the IPv6 SA check is ignored. A match
is yielded.
In the event that the IPv6 header destination address is a solicited node multicast address (i.e. it has a prefix that
matches FF02.1:FF00:0/104), only the upper three bytes (NSx_IPv6_ADDR_DEST_3 [127:104]) of NSx IPv6 Destina-
tion Address Register (NSx_IPV6_ADDR_DEST) are compared against the last 24 bits of the IPv6 header destination
address.
If both IPv6 DA and SA checks pass, and the Next Header field of the IPv6 header (or any extension headers) specify
ICMPv6 (58), then a check is made to determine whether an NS (Neighbor Solicitation) request is being made (ICMP
type = 135 and code = 0 within the ICMPv6 header).
If so, the target address specified in the NS request is compared to the addresses contained in the NSx ICMPv6 Address
0 Register (NSx_ICMPV6_ADDR0) and NSx ICMPv6 Address 1 Register (NSx_ICMPV6_ADDR1). If a match occurs
on either comparison, and the ICMPv6 checksum is good, and no other errors occurred in the frame, then the MAC shall
transmit an NA response frame to the sender.
The NS frame must be validated per the checks defined in section 7.1.1 of RFC 4861. Frames that fail the validation
checks are discarded.
NA response frames have the following characteristics:
Frame header:
- DA = SA from frame header of the NS packet
- SA = device’s MAC address
- Type = 86DDh
IPv6 header:
- SA = When NA SA Select (NA_SA_SEL) of Wakeup Control and Status Register 2 (WUCSR2) is cleared, the
Target address from the NS packet is used. When set, the value in NSx IPv6 Destination Address Register
(NSx_IPV6_ADDR_DEST) is used.
- DA = SA of NS packet, if specified. If NS packet contained an unspecified address (0::0) in its IPv6 SA, then
DA = FF02:0:0:0:0:0:0:1
- Hop limit = 255
ICMPv6:
- Type = 136
- Code = 0
- Checksum = set to the checksum - 16-bit 1’s complement of the 1’s complement sum calculated over the
entire message starting with a “pseudo-header” of the IPv6 header fields (next header is 58)
- Router flag = 0
- Solicited flag = 1 if Destination Address is not equal to FF02:0::1, otherwise 0
- Override flag = 1
- Reserved = 0 (This is a 29 bit field)
- Target address = target address from the NS packet
- Option = device’s MAC address (same as frame header)

8.6 ARP Offload
ARP Offload is a power management feature that permits the device to respond to an ARP request by generating and
transmitting the required response packet.
The following registers are used to facilitate ARP offload:
ARP Sender Protocol Address Register (ARP_SPA)
ARP Target Protocol Address Register (ARP_TPA)
These registers are used when the ARP Offload Enable (ARP_OFFLOAD_EN) bit is set in WUCSR2. When enabled,
logic within the MAC will examine the frame type of all received Ethernet frames. ARP frames (those having a frame
type of 0806h) whose destination address matches the device’s MAC address or is the broadcast address will further
be examined. Frames that are not ARP frames or frames that are ARP frames, but whose destination address did not
fit the selection criteria, will be ignored.
The following fields of the ARP header are checked to ensure they are set to the indicated values. if a mismatch occurs,
the frame is ignored.
Hardware Type (HTYPE) - 0x0001 for Ethernet
Protocol Type (PTYPE) - 0x0800 for IPv4
Hardware Address Length (HLEN) - 0x06 for Ethernet
Protocol Address Length (PLEN) - 0x04 for IPv4
Opcode (OP) - 0x0001 for Request
The contents of the ARP Sender Protocol Address Register (ARP_SPA) and ARP Target Protocol Address Register
(ARP_TPA) are compared to the SPA and TPA fields, respectively, of the ARP message. If the contents of both registers
match the contents of the message, then the MAC TX is signaled to transmit an ARP response frame to the sender.
ARP response frames have the following characteristics:
Frame header:
- DA = SA from frame header of the ARP packet
- SA = device’s MAC address
- Type = 0806h
ARP message:
- Hardware type = 1
- Protocol type = 0800h
- Hardware length = 6
- Protocol length = 4
- Sender HA = device’s MAC address
- Sender IP = TPA field from the ARP request packet
- Target HA = SHA field from the ARP request packet
- Target IP = SPA field from the ARP request packet
Note: The IPv6 TCP SYN Packet Received (IPV6_TCPSYN_RCD) bit in Wakeup Control and Status Register 2
(WUCSR2) is set whenever a NS packet is received during the time interval between NS Offload Enable
(NS_OFFLOAD_EN) being set and subsequently cleared. This bit, and all other status bits contained in
Wakeup Control and Status Register 1 (WUCSR1) and Wakeup Control and Status Register 2 (WUCSR2)
should be cleared prior to entering a SUSPEND state. NS Packet Received (NS_RCD) will be automati-
cally cleared when exiting a SUSPEND state whenever the Resume Clears Remote Wakeup Status
(RES_CLR_WKP_STS) bit is set in the Power Management Control Register (PMT_CTL).
Note: The registers can be set to force a match to occur with the protocol field its contents is being compared to.
Please refer to the register definition for details.

8.7 Automatic Speed and Duplex Detection
The device permits manual or automatic control of speed and duplex operation.
The Automatic Speed Detection (ASD) bit in the MAC Control Register (MAC_CR) controls whether or not the MAC
operational speed is determined automatically or is manually set. When ASD is set, the MAC ignores the setting of the
MAC Configuration (CFG) field of the MAC Control Register (MAC_CR) and automatically determines the speed of
operation. The MAC samples an internal receive clock signal to accomplish speed detection and reports the last deter-
mined speed via the MAC Configuration (CFG) field. When ASD is zero, the setting of the MAC Configuration (CFG)
field determines operational speed.
The Automatic Duplex Detection (ADD) bit in the MAC Control Register (MAC_CR) controls whether or not the MAC
operates in manual or automatic duplex mode of operation. When this bit is set, the MAC ignores the setting of the
Duplex Mode (DPX) bit in the MAC Control Register (MAC_CR) and automatically determines the duplex operational
mode. The MAC uses the PHY status signal to accomplish mode detection and reports the last determined status via
the Duplex Mode (DPX) bit. When ADD is zero, the setting of the Duplex Mode (DPX) bit determines Duplex operation.
See Section 9.1, "Category 5 Twisted Pair Media Interface" for additional information.
On loss of SYNC, the MAC will commence automatic speed and/or duplex detection, depending on the setting of ASD/
ADD.
8.8 Loopback Operation
The following Loopback modes are available:
PHY Loopback Mode
MAC Internal Loopback Mode
This mode is configured via the Internal Loopback Operation Mode (INT_LOOP) bit of the MAC Control Register
(MAC_CR). It is only valid in full-duplex mode of operation. In this loopback mode, the TX frame is received by the Inter-
nal GMII interface and is sent back to the MAC without being sent to the PHY.
Note: The ARP Packet Received (ARP_RCD) bit in WUCSR2 is set whenever a ARP request is received during
the time interval between ARP Offload Enable (ARP_OFFLOAD_EN) being set and subsequently cleared.
This bit, and all other status bits contained in WUCSR1 and WUCSR2 should be cleared prior to entering
a SUSPEND state. ARP Packet Received (ARP_RCD) will be automatically cleared when exiting a SUS-
PEND state whenever the Resume Clears Remote Wakeup Status (RES_CLR_WKP_STS) bit is set in the
Power Management Control Register (PMT_CTL).
Note: The ARP Offload Enable (ARP_OFFLOAD_EN) bit of the WUCSR2 register must be cleared in order for
the MAC to resume normal receive and transmit operation. Failure to clear this bit and all other enable bits
contained in WUCSR1 and WUCSR2 upon returning to the Normal state, or setting this bit during normal
operation, will result in untoward operation and unexpected results.

8.9 802.3az EEE Support
The device supports Energy Efficient Ethernet as defined in revision IEEE 802.3az-2012 of the standard. EEE support
is enabled by the Energy Efficient Ethernet Enable (EEEEN) bit of the MAC Control Register (MAC_CR).
8.9.1 TX LPI GENERATION
The process of when the MAC should indicate LPI requests to the PHY is divided into two sections.
First is the concept of the “Client”, which is basically any source of data that the MAC needs to transmit. This includes
packet data via the TX FCT, pause frames request via the RX FCT and ARP and NS offload frames internally generated
by the MAC due to the reception of certain frames.
The second section is the MAC low level FSM, which includes the concepts of IDLE, DEFERRAL, IFG, PREAMBLE and
DATA / FCS.
8.9.1.1 Client LPI Requests to MAC
The Client to MAC LPI request process is shown in Figure 8-2.
When the TX FCT is empty for a time (in microseconds) specified in EEE TX LPI Request Delay Count Register
(EEE_TX_LPI_REQUEST_DELAY_CNT) a TX LPI request is asserted to the MAC. This is managed by the internal FCT
TX Empty Timer. A setting of 0 us is possible for this time. If the TX FCT becomes not empty while the timer is running,
the timer will reset (i.e. empty time is not cumulative). Once TX LPI is requested and the TX FCT becomes not empty,
the TX LPI request is negated. The Client shall return to waiting for the TX FCT to be empty. Note that it is conceivable
for the TX LPI request to the MAC to only be asserted for a single clock cycle.
The TX LPI request can optionally be automatically removed after the time specified in the EEE TX LPI Automatic
Removal Delay Register (EEE_TX_LPI_AUTO_REMOVAL_DELAY) in anticipation of periodic transmissions. This func-
tion is enabled with the Energy Efficient Ethernet TX LPI Automatic Removal Enable (EEE_TX_LPI_AUTO_REMOV-
AL_EN) bit. The TX FCT Empty timer is reset and the client returns to waiting for the TX FCT to be empty for the request
delay time as above.
TX LPI requests are asserted only if the Energy Efficient Ethernet Enable (EEEEN) bit is set in the MAC Control Register
(MAC_CR), the current speed is 100 Mbps or 1000 Mbps, the current duplex is full and the auto-negotiation result indi-
cates that both the local and partner device support EEE at the current operating speed. In order to prevent an unstable
link condition, the PHY link status also must indicate “up” for one second before LPI is requested.
FIGURE 8-2: CLIENT LPI REQUEST GENERATION
LAN7850
DS00001993D-page 88 2015 - 2017 Microchip Technology Inc.
TX LPI requests are asserted even if the Transmitter Enable (TXEN) bit in the MAC Transmit Register (MAC_TX) is
cleared.
When TX LPI is requested to the MAC, the Energy Efficient Ethernet Start TX Low Power Interrupt (EEE_START_TX-
_LPI_INT) bit will be set. This bit may generate a USB interrupt if Energy Efficient Ethernet Start TX Low Power Enable
(EEE_START_TX_LPI_EN) is set.
When the TX LPI request is de-asserted, due to the expiration of the above EEE TX LPI Automatic Removal Delay Reg-
ister (EEE_TX_LPI_AUTO_REMOVAL_DELAY) timer, the Energy Efficient Ethernet Stop TX Low Power Interrupt
(EEE_STOP_TX_LPI_INT) bit is set. This bit may then generate a USB interrupt if Energy Efficient Ethernet Stop TX
Low Power Enable (EEE_STOP_TX_LPI_EN) is set.
Also when the TX LPI request is de-asserted due to the same automatic removal, the Energy Efficient Ethernet TX Wake
(EEE_TX_WAKE) bit is set if Energy Efficient Ethernet TX Wake Enable (EEE_TX_WAKE_EN) is set. Energy Efficient
Ethernet TX Wake (EEE_TX_WAKE) being set causes EEE WAKE-UP Status (EEE_WUPS) to set. EEE WAKE-UP
Status (EEE_WUPS), in turn, may generate a USB remote wake-up event if EEE WAKE-UP Enable (EEE_WAKE-
UP_EN) is set. EEE TX Wake is required to operate during the SUSPEND3 Power state, however the hardware should
not intentionally enforce the power state mapping since it is left to the S/W driver to properly match wake events and
power states.
8.9.1.1.1 Flow Control, ARP Response and NS Response Packet Interaction
It is possible that a pause frame (automatically generated based on the RX FCT levels or RX FCT overflow or manual
generated via the FORCE_FC bit in the FLOW register) or an ARP or NS response packet needs to be transmitted while
waiting for the TX FCT empty timer to expire. When such packets are necessary, the TX FCT empty timer is not restart
or paused. If such a packet is started while waiting for TX FCT empty timer but finishes following the wait time, TX LPI
is requested following the packet (i.e. the LPI request is delayed). If the TX FCT becomes not empty while the packet
is being transmitted, the TX FCT empty timer is reset, as normally would happen, and TX LPI is not requested.
It is also possible that a pause frame or an ARP or NS response packet needs to be transmitted while the TX LPI request
is asserted. When such packets are necessary, the TX LPI request is de-asserted and the packet is presented to the
MAC for transmission. The MAC, as described below, will defer until the appropriate wake timer has expired before
transmitting the packet. Once the packet is sent to the MAC, TX LPI is immediately reasserted, assuming that the FCT
empty timer is still expired and that the EEE TX LPI Automatic Removal Delay Register (EEE_TX_LPI_AUTO_REMOV-
AL_DELAY) timer has not expired. The MAC, as described below, will finish the packet transmission before signaling
LPI to the PHY
Removal of the LPI request, due to flow control or ARP or NS response packets does, not reset the FCT empty timer
nor does it reset or pause the EEE TX LPI Automatic Removal Delay Register (EEE_TX_LPI_AUTO_REMOVAL_DE-
LAY) timer.
8.9.1.2 MAC LPI Request to PHY
The MAC will always finish the current packet before signaling TX LPI to the PHY. It is possible that the TX LPI request
from the Client is asserted and de-asserted during a packet. This will not result in a TX LPI request to the PHY nor will
it trigger the wake timer described below.
The MAC will generate TX LPI requests to the PHY even if the Transmitter Enable (TXEN) bit in the MAC Transmit Reg-
ister (MAC_TX) is cleared.
2015 - 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. DS00001993D-page 89
LAN7850
802.3az specifies the usage of a simplified full duplex MAC with carrier sense deferral. Basically this means that once
the TX LPI request to the PHY is de-asserted, the MAC will defer the time specified in EEE Time Wait TX System Reg-
ister (EEE_TW_TX_SYS) in addition to the normal IPG before sending a frame. This is shown in Figure 8-3.
In part A of the figure, a carrier indicator is set when the TX LPI request to the PHY is asserted. The wake timer (tw_-
timer) is triggered when the TX LPI request to the PHY is de-asserted and once the wake timer is satisfied, the carrier
indicator is cleared. Note that there are separate TX wait values depending on the speed of operation.
Part B of the figure shows that a deferring indicator is set when either a frame is transmitted or the carrier indicator is
active. Once the frame transmission is finished or (logically an “and”) the carrier indicator is cleared, the IFG timer is
triggered and once the IFG timer is satisfied, the deferring indicator is cleared.
Part C of the figure shows that the MAC transmitter waits for the clearing of the deferring indicator before transmitting
a frame. This is unchanged.
8.9.1.2.1 Selecting the source of transmit data Following wake
Currently, when presented with a simultaneous request to transmit FCT data, ARP or NS responses or pause packets,
the MAC prioritizes pause packets over the other sources. In order to minimize the impact of the wake time on the
latency of transmitting a pause packet, the choice of data source must not be made until the expiration of the wake time.
As an example, assume that during the TX LPI, a maximum size transmit packet is written into the TX FCT. Also assume
that during the wake time, the RX FCT FIFO level reaches the pause threshold and a request is made for a pause packet
to be transmitted. At the expiration of the wake time, if the packet from the TX FCT was selected and transmitted, the
eventual pause packet would have waited the wake time portion plus the maximum packet transmit time. The additional
of the wake time may not have been accounted for in the RX FCT threshold level setting and an overflow might occur
as a result. To alleviate this issue, the pause packet should be selected at the expiration of the wake time.
8.9.1.2.2 Halting GMII TX Clock
Once the TX LPI request is asserted, the MAC, optionally based on the Energy Efficient Ethernet TX Clock Stop Enable
(EEE_TX_CLK_STOP_EN) bit in the MAC Control Register (MAC_CR), may halt the GMII GTX_CLK output. The MAC
provides at least 9 clock cycles of GTX_CLK following the assertion of the TX LPI request before halting the clock. The
MAC provides at least 1 clock cycle of GTX_CLK before the de-assertion of the TX LPI request.
8.9.1.2.3 TX LPI Counters
The MAC maintains a counter, EEE TX LPI Transitions, that counts the number of times that TX LPI request to the PHY
changes from de-asserted to asserted. The counter is not writable and does not clear on read.
The MAC maintains a counter, EEE TX LPI Time, that counts (in microseconds) the amount of time that TX LPI is
asserted. Note that this counter does not include the time specified in the EEE Time Wait TX System Register
(EEE_TW_TX_SYS). The counter is not writable and does not clear on read.
Both counters are required to operate during SUSPEND0, SUSPEND3 and Normal Configured Power states.
FIGURE 8-3: TX LPI WAKE TIMER
LAN7850
DS00001993D-page 90 2015 - 2017 Microchip Technology Inc.
8.9.2 RX LPI DETECTION
In order to provide robustness, RX LPI is seen active from the PHY for 3 RX clocks in order to be considered valid active
and is seen inactive from the PHY for 4 RX clocks in order to be considered valid inactive.
8.9.2.1 LPI Affect on Automatic Speed Detection
It is possible for the PHY to halt RX_CLK after indicating LPI but at least 9 RX clocks of LPI will occur before the RX_CLK
is stopped. When RX_CLK is restarted, due to wake signaling, at least 1 RX clock of RX LPI will occur before the PHY
indicates normal IDLE.
8.9.2.2 Decoding LPI
The MAC will decode the start of the RX LPI indication and set the Energy Efficient Ethernet RX Low Power Interrupt
(EEE_RX_LPI_INT) bit. This bit may generate a USB interrupt if Energy Efficient Ethernet RX Low Power Enable
(EEE_RX_LPI_EN) is set.
The MAC will decode the end of the RX LPI indication and, if Energy Efficient Ethernet RX Wake Enable (EEE_RX-
_WAKE_EN) is set, the MAC will set Energy Efficient Ethernet RX Wake (EEE_RX_WAKE). Energy Efficient Ethernet
RX Wake (EEE_RX_WAKE) being set causes EEE WAKE-UP Status (EEE_WUPS) to set. EEE WAKE-UP Status
(EEE_WUPS), in turn, may generate a USB remote wake-up event if EEE WAKE-UP Enable (EEE_WAKEUP_EN) is
set. EEE RX Wake is required to operate during SUSPEND0 and SUSPEND3 Power states, however the hardware will
not intentionally enforce the power state mapping since it is left to the software driver to properly match wake events
and power states.
The MAC will decode the LPI indication only when the Energy Efficient Ethernet Enable (EEEEN) bit is set in the MAC
Control Register (MAC_CR), the current speed is 100Mbs or 1000Mbs, the current duplex is full and the auto-negotia-
tion result indicates that both the local and partner device supports EEE at the current operating speed. In order to pre-
vent an unstable link condition, the PHY link status also must indicate “up” for one second before LPI is decoded.
The MAC will decode the LPI indication even if Receiver Enable (RXEN) in the MAC Receive Register (MAC_RX) is
cleared.
8.9.2.3 RX LPI Counters
The MAC maintains a counter, EEE RX LPI Transitions, that counts the number of times that the LPI indication from the
PHY changes from de-asserted to asserted. The counter is not writable and does not clear on read.
The MAC maintains a counter, EEE RX LPI Time, that counts (in microseconds) the amount of time that the PHY indi-
cates LPI. The counter is not writable and does not clear on read.
Both counters are required to operate during SUSPEND0, SUSPEND3 and Normal Configured Power states.
8.10 MAC Reset Watchdog Timer
A portion of the MAC operates on clocks generated by the Ethernet PHY. During a PHY reset event, this portion of the
MAC is designed to not be taken out of reset until the PHY clocks are operational, such that the respective MAC resets
can be de-asserted synchronously. In the event of an error condition in which the MAC’s RX and TX clocks are not
enabled, a watchdog timer is provided to detect this condition. The duration of the timer is 8 ms.
The below scenarios utilize the watchdog timer:
System level reset events.
PHY Reset (PHY_RST) results in resetting the portion of the MAC operating on the PHY receive and transmit
clocks and therefore they also enable the watchdog timer.
The Ethernet PHY is held in reset while in SUSPEND2. If the device transitions to Normal-Configured, the PHY
must be taken out of reset as well as the affected portions of the MAC. This likewise enables the watchdog timer.
The expiration of the timer causes MAC Reset Time Out (MACRTO_INT) in Interrupt Status Register (INT_STS) to
assert.

9.0 GIGABIT ETHERNET PHY (GPHY)
The device incorporates a low-power Gigabit Ethernet PHY (GPHY) transceiver that is fully compliant with the IEEE
802.3, 802.3u, 802.3ab, and 802.3az (Energy Efficient Ethernet) standards. It provides a low electromagnetic interfer-
ence (EMI) line driver, and integrated line side termination resistors that conserve both power and printed circuit board
(PCB) space.
The mixed signal and digital signal processing (DSP) architecture of the Ethernet PHY assures robust performance
even under less-than-favorable environmental conditions. It supports both half-duplex and full-duplex 10BASE-T,
100BASE-TX, and 1000BASE-T communication speeds over Category 5 (Cat5) unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable at
distances greater than 100m, displaying excellent tolerance to NEXT, FEXT, echo, and other types of ambient environ-
ment and system electronic noise. The Ethernet PHY implements auto-negotiation to automatically determine the best
possible speed and duplex mode of operation. HP Auto-MDIX support allows the use of direct connect or cross-over
LAN cables.
The Ethernet PHY supports Wake on LAN (WoL), providing a mechanism to trigger an interrupt upon reception of a
perfect DA, broadcast, magic packet, or wakeup frame. This feature allows filtering of packets at the PHY layer, without
requiring MAC intervention. Additionally, the Ethernet PHY supports cable diagnostics which allow the device to identify
opens/shorts and their location on the cable via vendor-specific registers.
Per IEEE 802.3-2005 standards, all digital interface pins are tolerant to 3.6V. Additional power savings can be achieved
by utilizing the integrated Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) function and Enhanced ActiPHY power saving mode, result-
ing in significant power savings during low link utilizations.
The Ethernet PHY is configurable via the Ethernet PHY Control and Status Registers. These registers are accessed
indirectly through the Ethernet MAC via the MII Access Register (MII_ACCESS) and MII Data Register (MII_DATA).
9.1 Category 5 Twisted Pair Media Interface
9.1.1 VOLTAGE-MODE LINE DRIVER
The Ethernet PHY uses a patented voltage-mode line driver that allows it to fully integrate the series termination resis-
tors (required to connect the PHY’s Category 5 interface to an external 1:1 transformer). Also, the interface does not
require the user to place an external voltage on the center tap of the magnetic.
9.1.2 CATEGORY 5 AUTO-NEGOTIATION AND PARALLEL DETECTION
The Ethernet PHY supports twisted pair auto-negotiation as defined by IEEE 802.3-2008 Clause 28 and IEEE 802.3az.
The auto-negotiation process evaluates the advertised capabilities of the local PHY and its link partner to determine the
best possible operating mode. In particular, auto-negotiation can determine speed, duplex configuration, and master or
slave operating modes for 1000BASE-T. Also, auto-negotiation allows the internal MAC to communicate with its link
partner MAC through the Ethernet PHY using optional “next pages,” which set attributes that may not otherwise be
defined by the IEEE standard.
If the Category 5 link partner does not support auto-negotiation, the Ethernet PHY automatically uses parallel detection
to select the appropriate link speed.
Auto-negotiation is disabled by clearing the Auto-Negotiation Enable bit of the Ethernet PHY Mode Control Register. If
auto-negotiation is disabled, the state of the Ethernet PHY Mode Control Register bits Speed Select[0], Speed Select[1],
and Duplex Mode determine the device operating speed and duplex mode. While 10BASE-T and 100BASE-T do not
require auto-negotiation, clause 40 has defined 1000BASE-T to require auto-negotiation.
9.1.3 1000BASE-T FORCED MODE SUPPORT
The device provide support for a 1000BASE-T forced test mode. In this mode, the Ethernet PHY can be forced into
1000BASE-T mode and does not require manual setting of master/slave at the two ends of the link. This mode is for
test purposes only, and should not be used in normal operation. To configure a PHY in this mode, set the Enable
1000BASE-T Force Mode bit of the Ethernet PHY Page 2 EEE Control Register to 1b, and the Ethernet PHY Mode Con-
trol Register bits Speed Select[1] and Speed Select[0] to 10b.
9.1.4 AUTOMATIC CROSSOVER AND POLARITY DETECTION
For trouble-free configuration and management of Ethernet links, the Ethernet PHY includes a robust automatic cross-
over detection feature for all three speeds on the twisted-pair interface (10BASE-T, 100BASE-T, and 1000BASE-T).
Known as HP Auto-MDIX, the function is fully compliant with clause 40 of the IEEE standard 802.3-2008.
LAN7850
DS00001993D-page 92 2015 - 2017 Microchip Technology Inc.
Additionally, the device detects and corrects polarity errors on all MDI pairs, a useful capability that exceeds the require-
ments of the standard.
Both HP Auto-MDIX detection and polarity correction are enabled in the device by default. The default settings can be
changed via the Disable Auto-MDI/MDI-X Correction and Disable Polarity Inversion Correction bits of the Ethernet PHY
Bypass Control Register. The status bits for each of these functions are located in the Ethernet PHY Auxiliary Control
and Status Register.
The HP Auto-MDIX algorithm successfully detects, corrects, and operates with any of the MDI wiring pair combinations
listed in Table 9-1.
9.1.5 MANUAL MDI/MDI-X SETTING
As an alternative to HP Auto-MDIX detection, the PHY can be forced to be MDI or MDI-X using the MDI/MDI-X Force
Enable bits of the Ethernet PHY Page 1 LED and Crossover Control Register. Setting these bits to 10b forces MDI and
setting to 11b forces MDI-X. Leaving the bits 00b enables the MDI/MDI-X setting to be based on the Disable Auto-MDI/
MDI-X in Forced 10/100 Mode and Disable Auto-MDI/MDI-X Correction bits of the Ethernet PHY Bypass Control Reg-
ister.
9.1.6 LINK SPEED DOWNSHIFT
For operation in cabling environments that are incompatible with 1000BASE-T, the Ethernet PHY provides an automatic
link speed “downshift” option. When enabled, the device automatically changes its 1000BASE-T auto-negotiation adver-
tisement to the next slower speed after a set number of failed attempts at 1000BASE-T. No reset is required to get out
of this state if a subsequent link partner with 1000BASE-T support is connected.
This is useful in setting up in networks using older cable installations that may include only pairs A and B and not pairs
C and D. The two-pair Cable Detection and Auto Downshift Operation enables link-up at 10/100BASE-T speeds in this
scenario.
To configure and monitor link speed downshifting, set the Enable Cable Impairment Auto-Downshift, Link Speed Auto-
Downshift Control, and Apply Downshift bits of the Ethernet PHY Page 1 Extended PHY Control 3 Register.
9.1.7 ENERGY EFFICIENT ETHERNET
The Ethernet PHY supports the IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet standard. This standard provides a method for
reducing power consumption on an Ethernet link during times of low utilization. It uses Low Power Idles (LPI) to achieve
this objective.
Using LPI, the usage model for the link is to transmit data as fast as possible and then return to a low power idle state.
Energy is saved on the link by cycling between active and low power idle states. During LPI, power is reduced by turning
off unused circuits and using this method, energy use scales with bandwidth utilization.
The Ethernet PHY uses LPI to optimize power dissipation in 100BASE-TX and 1000BASE-T modes of operation. In
addition, the IEEE 802.3az standard defines a 10BASE-Te mode that reduces transmit signal amplitude from 5Vpeak-
to-peak to approximately 3.3Vpeak-to-peak. This mode reduces power consumption in 10Mb/s link speed and can fully
inter-operate with legacy 10BASE-T compliant PHYs over 100m Category 5 cable or better.
To configure the Ethernet PHY in 10BASE-Te mode, set the Enable Energy Efficient (802.3az) 10BASE-Te Operating
Mode bit in the Ethernet PHY Page 2 EEE Control Register to 1b. Additional Energy Efficient Ethernet features are con-
trolled through the MMD control and status registers EEE Advertisement (EEE_ADVERTISEMENT) and EEE Link Part-
ner Advertisement (EEE_LP_ADVERTISEMENT).

9.1.8 CABLE DIAGNOSTICS
The device includes a comprehensive suite of cable diagnostic functions that are available via the Ethernet PHY Page
1 Cable Diagnostics Control 1 Register, Ethernet PHY Page 1 Cable Diagnostics Control 2 Register, and Ethernet PHY
Page 1 Cable Diagnostics Control 3 Register. These functions enable a variety of cable operating conditions and status
to be accessed and checked. When triggered via the Cable Diagnostics Trigger bit in the Ethernet PHY Page 1 Cable
Diagnostics Control 1 Register, the cable diagnostic functions provide the ability to identify the cable length and oper-
ating conditions, and to isolate a variety of common faults that can occur on the Category 5 twisted pair cabling.
The following diagnostic functions are part of the cable diagnostic suite:
Detecting Coupling Between Cable Pairs
Detecting Cable Pair Termination
Determining Cable Length
9.1.8.1 Coupling Between Cable Pairs
Shorted wires, improper termination, or high cross-talk resulting from an incorrect wire map can cause error conditions,
such as anomalous coupling between cable pairs. These conditions can prevent the device from establishing a link at
any speed.
9.1.8.2 Cable Pair Termination
Proper termination of a category 5 cable requires a 100 ohm differential impedance between the positive and negative
cable terminals. IEEE 802.3 allows for a termination of 115 ohms maximum and 85 ohms minimum. If the termination
falls outside of this range, it is reported by the cable diagnostics as an anomalous termination. The diagnostics can also
determine the presence of an open or shorted cable pair.
9.1.8.3 Cable Length
When the category 5 cable in an installation is properly terminated, the cable diagnostics report the approximate cable
length in meters. If there is a cable fault, the distance to the fault is reported. Cable length is reliable to the 120 meter
range.
9.2 Ethernet PHY Power Management
9.2.1 PHY POWER DOWN
The Ethernet PHY can be powered down via the IEEE-specified Power Down bit in the Ethernet PHY Mode Control
Register.
9.2.2 ENHANCED PHY POWER MANAGEMENT
In addition to the IEEE-specified power-down control bit, the device also includes an enhanced PHY power manage-
ment mode. This mode enables support for power-sensitive applications. It utilizes a signal-detect function that monitors
the media interface for the presence of a link to determine when to automatically power-down the PHY. The PHY “wakes
up” at a programmable interval and attempts to “wake-up” the link partner PHY by sending a burst of FLP over copper
media.
The enhanced PHY power management mode is enabled during normal operation at any time by setting the Enhanced
PHY Enable bit of the Ethernet PHY Auxiliary Control and Status Register to 1b.
The enhanced PHY power management mode helps conserve power in the following cases:
An unplugged PHY port
A PHY port, plugged into a cable with no link partner on the other end
A PHY port, plugged into a cable with a link partner PHY not transmitting link pulses because it is un-powered, in
reset, or other reasons that prevent it from linking.
Note: When a link is established on the twisted pair interface in the 1000BASE-T mode, cable diagnostics can
be run without disrupting the link or disrupting any data transfer. However, when a link is established in
100BASE-TX or 10BASE-T modes, cable diagnostics cause the link to drop while the diagnostics are run-
ning. After the cable diagnostics are finished, the link is re-established.
LAN7850
DS00001993D-page 94 2015 - 2017 Microchip Technology Inc.
The enhanced PHY power management mode can be used in conjunction with all suspend states with the exception of
SUSPEND2, since the PHY is disabled. Moreover, Enhanced PHY mode can be enabled while in Normal-Configured,
NetDetach and PME mode by setting the Enhanced PHY Enable bit of the Ethernet PHY Auxiliary Control and Status
Register to 1b. It is desirable to do so in all these cases.
For PME mode, EEPROM/OTP settings are available to enable the Enhanced PHY mode to be enabled by default.
9.3 LED Interface
The Ethernet PHY provides four LED pins, LED[0:3]. Each LED can be configured to display different status information
that can be selected by setting the corresponding LED Configuration field of the Ethernet PHY LED Mode Select Reg-
ister. The modes in Table 9-2 are equivalent to the settings used in the Ethernet PHY LED Mode Select Register to con-
figure each LED pin. The default LED state is active low and can be changed by modifying the Invert LED Polarity field
of the Ethernet PHY Page 2 EEE Control Register. The blink/pulse-stretch and other LED settings can be configured
via the Ethernet PHY LED Behavior Register. The LED pins can also be configured via EEPROM or OTP (LED Config-
uration 0, LED Configuration 1, LED Configuration 2, LED Configuration 3, LED Configuration 4).

9.3.1 LED BEHAVIOR
Using the Ethernet PHY LED Behavior Register, the following LED behaviors can be configured.
9.3.1.1 LED Combine
Enables an LED to display the status for a combination of primary and secondary modes. This can be enabled or dis-
abled for each LED pin via the LED Combination Disables field of the Ethernet PHY LED Behavior Register. For exam-
ple, a copper link running in 1000BASE-T mode with activity present can be displayed with one LED by configuring an
LED pin to Link1000/Activity mode. The LED asserts when linked to a 1000BASE-T partner and also blinks or performs
pulse-stretch when activity is either transmitted by the PHY or received by the Link Partner. When disabled, the combine
feature only provides status of the selected primary function. In this example, only Link1000 asserts the LED, and the
secondary mode, activity, does not display if the combine feature is disabled.
9.3.1.2 LED Blink or Pulse-Stretch
This behavior is used for activity and collision indication. This can be uniquely configured for each LED pin via the LED
Pulse Stretch Enables field of the Ethernet PHY LED Behavior Register. Activity and collision events can occur randomly
and intermittently throughout the link-up period. Blink is a 50% duty cycle oscillation of asserting and de-asserting an
LED pin. Pulse-stretch guarantees that an LED is asserted and de-asserted for a specific period of time when activity
is either present or not present. These rates can also be configured, as detailed in Section 9.3.1.3, "Rate of LED Blink
or Pulse-Stretch".
9.3.1.3 Rate of LED Blink or Pulse-Stretch
This behavior controls the LED blink rate or pulse-stretch length when the blink/pulse-stretch is enabled (LED Pulse
Stretch Enables) on an LED pin. This can be uniquely configured for each LED pin via the LED Blink / Pulse-Stretch
Rate field of the Ethernet PHY LED Behavior Register. The blink rate, which alternates between a high and low voltage
level at a 50% duty cycle, can be set to 2.5 Hz, 5 Hz, 10 Hz, or 20 Hz. For pulse-stretch, the rate can be set to 50 ms,
100 ms, 200 ms, or 400 ms.
9.3.1.4 LED Pulsing Enable
To provide additional power savings, the LEDs (when asserted) can be pulsed at 5 kHz, 20% duty cycle, by setting the
LED Pulsing Enable bit of the Ethernet PHY LED Behavior Register.
12 Auto-negotiation Fault 1 = No auto-negotiation fault present.
0 = Auto-negotiation fault occurred.

14 Force LED Off 1 = De-asserts the LED.
15 Force LED On 0 = Asserts the LED.

9.4 Test Features
The Ethernet PHY includes several testing features designed to facilitate system-level debugging and production test-
ing. These are detailed in the following sub-sections.
9.4.1 ETHERNET PACKET GENERATOR
The Ethernet Packet Generator (EPG) can be used at each of the 10/100/1000BASE-T speed settings for Copper Cat-
egory 5 media to isolate problems between the MAC and PHY, or between a locally connected PHY and its remote link
partner. Enabling the EPG feature effectively disables all MAC interface transmit pins and selects the EPG as the source
for all data transmitted onto the twisted pair interface.
To enable the EPG feature, set the EPG Enable bit to 1b in the Ethernet PHY Page 1 Ethernet Packet Generator (EPG)
Control 1 Register. When the EPG is enabled, packet loss occurs during transmission of packets from the MAC to the
PHY. However, the PHY receive output pins to the MAC are still active when the EPG is enabled.
When the EPG Run/Stop bit of the Ethernet PHY Page 1 Ethernet Packet Generator (EPG) Control 1 Register is set to
1b, the PHY begins transmitting Ethernet packets based on the settings in the Ethernet PHY Page 1 Ethernet Packet
Generator (EPG) Control 1 Register and Ethernet PHY Page 1 Ethernet Packet Generator (EPG) Control 2 Register.
These registers set:
Source and destination addresses for each packet
Packet size
Inter-packet gap
FCS state
Transmit duration
Payload pattern
If the Transmission Duration bit of the Ethernet PHY Page 1 Ethernet Packet Generator (EPG) Control 1 Register is set
to 0, the EPG Run/Stop bit is cleared automatically after 30,000,000 packets are transmitted.
9.4.2 CRC COUNTERS
A set of Cyclical Redundancy Checking (CRC) counters are available to monitor traffic on the copper interface. Two
separate CRC counters are available:
Good packet Counter (Packet Counter field in the Ethernet PHY Page 1 Receive Good Counter Register)
Bad Packet Counter (Receive Packet CRC Error Counter field in the Ethernet PHY Page 1 Extended PHY Control
4 Register)
The good CRC counters highest value is 9,999 packets. After this value is reached, the counter clears on the 10,000th
packet and continues to count additional packets beyond that value. The bad CRC counter stops counting when it
reaches its maximum counter limit of 255 packets.
The device CRC counters operate in the 10/100/1000BASE-T mode as follows:
After receiving a packet on the media interface, the Packet Counter Active bit of the Ethernet PHY Page 1 Receive
Good Counter Register is set and cleared after being read.
The packet then is counted by either the good CRC counter (Packet Counter field in the Ethernet PHY Page 1
Receive Good Counter Register) or the bad CRC counter (Receive Packet CRC Error Counter field in the Ether-
net PHY Page 1 Extended PHY Control 4 Register).
Both CRC counters are also automatically cleared when read.
Note: The EPG is intended for use with laboratory or in-system testing equipment only. Do not use the EPG test-
ing feature when the device is connected to a live network.

LAN7850
9.4.3 FAR-END LOOPBACK
The far-end loopback testing feature is enabled by setting the Far-End Loopback Enable bit of the Ethernet PHY
Extended PHY Control 1 Register to 1b. When enabled, it forces incoming data from a link partner on the current media
interface, into the MAC interface of the PHY, to be retransmitted back to the link partner on the media interface as shown
in Figure 9-1. In addition, the incoming data also appears on the receive data pins of the MAC interface. Data present
on the transmit data pins of the MAC interface is ignored when using this testing feature.
9.4.4 NEAR-END LOOPBACK
When the near-end loopback testing feature is enabled (by setting the Digital Loopback bit of the Ethernet PHY Mode
Control Register to 1b), data on the transmit data pins (TXD) is looped back in the PCS block, onto the device receive
data pins (RXD), as shown in Figure 9-2. When using this testing feature, no data is transmitted over the network.
9.4.5 CONNECTOR LOOPBACK
The connector loopback testing feature allows the twisted pair interface to be looped back externally. When using this
feature, the PHY must be connected to a loopback connector or a loopback cable. Pair A should be connected to pair
B, and pair C to pair D, as shown in Figure 9-3. The connector loopback feature functions at all available interface
speeds.
When using the connector loopback testing feature, the device auto-negotiation, speed, and duplex configuration is set
using the Ethernet PHY Mode Control Register, Ethernet PHY Device Auto-Negotiation Advertisement Register, and
Ethernet PHY 1000BASE-T Control Register. For 1000BASE-T connector loopback, the following additional writes are
required to be executed in the following order:
1. Enable the 1000BASE-T connector loopback. Set the Cable Loopback Mode Enable bit of the Ethernet PHY
Extended PHY Control 2 Register to 1b.
2. Disable pair swap correction. Set the Disable Auto-MDI/MDI-X Correction bit of the Ethernet PHY Bypass Control
Register to 1b.

10.0 EEPROM CONTROLLER (EEP)
The device may use an external EEPROM to store the default values for the USB descriptors and the MAC address.
The EEPROM controller supports most “93C56 or 93C66” type 256/512 byte EEPROMs. A total of nine address bits are
used.
After a system-level reset occurs, the device will load the default values from EEPROM. The device will not accept USB
transactions from the Host until this process is completed.
The EEPROM controller also allows the Host to read, write and erase the contents of the Serial EEPROM.
10.1 EEPROM and OTP Relationship
A detected external EEPROM shall always take precedence over OTP. When determining the source to configure the
device, the following order is used:
1. EEPROM Configuration
2. OTP Configuration
3. CSR defaults
The CSR defaults are used if the OTP is determined to be unconfigured.
10.2 EEPROM Auto-Load
Certain system level resets (USB Reset, Power-On Reset (POR), External Chip Reset (RESET_N), and Soft Reset
(SRST)) cause the EEPROM contents to be loaded into the device. After a reset, the EEPROM controller attempts to
read the first byte of data from the EEPROM. If the value A5h is read from the first address, then the EEPROM controller
will assume that a programmed external Serial EEPROM is present.
The EEPROM Controller will then load contents of the EEPROM into an internal 512 byte Descriptor SRAM. The con-
tents of the RAM are accessed by the USB EP0 Control Block as needed (i.e., to fill Get Descriptor commands). A
detailed explanation of the EEPROM byte ordering with respect to the MAC address is given in Section 15.1.45, "MAC
Receive Address Low Register (RX_ADDRL)," on page 191.
If A5h is not read from the first address, the EEPROM controller will end initialization. The default values, as specified
in the associated registers and USB descriptors, shall be assumed unless a configured OTP is present.
Where there is no EEPROM or OTP it is the responsibility of the Host LAN driver software to set the IEEE 802.3 address
by writing to the MAC Receive Address High Register (RX_ADDRH) and MAC Receive Address Low Register (RX_AD-
DRL).
The device will not respond to the USB Host until the EEPROM loading sequence has completed. Therefore, after reset,
the USB PHY is kept in the disconnect state until the EEPROM load has completed.
10.3 EEPROM Host Operations
After the EEPROM controller has finished reading (or attempting to read) the EEPROM after a system-level reset, the
Host is free to perform other EEPROM operations. EEPROM operations are performed using the EEPROM Command
(E2P_CMD) and EEPROM Data (E2P_DATA) registers. Section 15.1.12, "EEPROM Command Register (E2P_CMD),"
on page 160 provides an explanation of the supported EEPROM operations.
If the EEPROM operation is the “write location” (WRITE) or “write all” (WRAL) commands, the Host must first write the
desired data into the E2P_DATA register. The Host must then issue the WRITE or WRAL command using the E2P_CMD
register by setting the EPC_CMD field appropriately. If the operation is a WRITE, the EPC_ADDR field in E2P_CMD
must also be set to the desired location. The command is executed when the Host sets the EPC_BSY bit high. The
completion of the operation is indicated when the EPC_BSY bit is cleared.
Note: A 3-wire style 2K/4K EEPROM that is organized for 256/512 x 8-bit operation must be used.
Note: The USB reset only loads the MAC address.
LAN7850
DS00001993D-page 100 2015 - 2017 Microchip Technology Inc.
If the EEPROM operation is the “read location” (READ) operation, the Host must issue the READ command using the
E2P_CMD register with the EPC_ADDR set to the desired location. The command is executed when the Host sets the
EPC_BSY bit high. The completion of the operation is indicated when the EPC_BSY bit is cleared, at which time the
data from the EEPROM may be read from the E2P_DATA register.
Other EEPROM operations are performed by writing the appropriate command to the E2P_CMD register. The command
is executed when the Host sets the EPC_BSY bit high. The completion of the operation is indicated when the EPC_BSY
bit is cleared. In all cases, the Host must wait for EPC_BSY to clear before modifying the E2P_CMD register.
If an operation is attempted, and an EEPROM device does not respond within 30 ms, the device will timeout, and the
EPC Time-out bit (EPC_TO) in the E2P_CMD register will be set.
Figure 10-1 illustrates the Host accesses required to perform an EEPROM Read or Write operation.
Note: The EEPROM device powers-up in the erase/write disabled state. To modify the contents of the EEPROM,
the Host must first issue the EWEN command.

LAN7850
10.3.1 SUPPORTED EEPROM OPERATIONS
The EEPROM controller supports the following EEPROM operations under Host control via the E2P_CMD register. The
operations are commonly supported by “93C46” EEPROM devices. A description and functional timing diagram is pro-
vided below for each operation. Please refer to the E2P_CMD register description in Section 15.1.12, "EEPROM Com-
mand Register (E2P_CMD)," on page 160 for E2P_CMD field settings for each command.
ERASE (Erase Location): If erase/write operations are enabled in the EEPROM, this command will erase the location
selected by the EPC Address field (EPC_ADDR). The EPC_TO bit is set if the EEPROM does not respond within 30 ms.
ERAL (Erase All): If erase/write operations are enabled in the EEPROM, this command will initiate a bulk erase of the
entire EEPROM.The EPC_TO bit is set if the EEPROM does not respond within 30 ms.

FIGURE 10-3: EEPROM ERAL CYCLE
LAN7850
DS00001993D-page 102 2015 - 2017 Microchip Technology Inc.
EWDS (Erase/Write Disable): After issued, the EEPROM will ignore erase and write commands. To re-enable erase/
write operations issue the EWEN command.
EWEN (Erase/Write Enable): Enables the EEPROM for erase and write operations. The EEPROM will allow erase and
write operations until the “Erase/Write Disable” command is sent, or until power is cycled.
The EEPROM device will power-up in the erase/write-disabled state. Any erase or write operations will fail until an
Erase/Write Enable command is issued.

READ (Read Location): This command will cause a read of the EEPROM location pointed to by EPC Address
(EPC_ADDR). The result of the read is available in the E2P_DATA register.
WRITE (Write Location): If erase/write operations are enabled in the EEPROM, this command will cause the contents
of the E2P_DATA register to be written to the EEPROM location selected by the EPC Address field (EPC_ADDR). The
EPC_TO bit is set if the EEPROM does not respond within 30 ms.
FIGURE 10-6: EEPROM READ CYCLE
FIGURE 10-7: EEPROM WRITE CYCLE
LAN7850
DS00001993D-page 104 2015 - 2017 Microchip Technology Inc.
WRAL (Write All): If erase/write operations are enabled in the EEPROM, this command will cause the contents of the
E2P_DATA register to be written to every EEPROM memory location. The EPC_TO bit is set if the EEPROM does not
respond within 30 ms.
Table 10-1 details the number of EECLK cycles required for each EEPROM operation.
10.3.2 HOST INITIATED EEPROM RELOAD
The Host can initiate a reload of the EEPROM by issuing the RELOAD command via the EEPROM Command Register
(E2P_CMD). If the first byte read from the EEPROM is not 0xA5, it is assumed that the EEPROM is not present, or not
programmed, and the reload will fail. The Data Loaded bit of the EEPROM Command Register (E2P_CMD) indicates a
successful reload of the EEPROM.
10.3.3 EEPROM COMMAND AND DATA REGISTERS
Refer to Section 15.1.12, "EEPROM Command Register (E2P_CMD)," on page 160 and Section 15.1.13, "EEPROM
Data Register (E2P_DATA)," on page 162 for a detailed description of these registers. Supported EEPROM operations
are described in these sections.
10.3.4 EEPROM TIMING
Refer to Section 16.6.4, "EEPROM Timing," on page 268 for detailed EEPROM timing specifications.

Note: It is not recommended that the RELOAD command be used as part of normal operation, as race conditions
can occur with USB Commands that access descriptor data. It is recommended that the Host driver issue
a Soft Reset (SRST) to reload the EEPROM data.

10.4 EEPROM Format
Table 10-2 illustrates the format in which data is stored inside of the EEPROM.
The EEPROM offsets are given in units of 16-bit word offsets. A length field with a value of zero indicates that the field
does not exist in the EEPROM. The device will use the field’s hardware default value in this case.
Note: For the device descriptor the only valid values for the length are 0 and 18.
For the configuration and interface descriptor the only valid values for the length are 0 and 18.
For the Binary Object Store (BOS) Block, the length varies and is dependent on block components.
The EEPROM programmer must ensure that if a string descriptor does not exist in the EEPROM, the ref-
erencing descriptor must contain 00h for the respective string index field.
If all string descriptor lengths are zero, then a Language ID will not be supported.
All reserved EEPROM bits must be set to 0.

10.6 Customized Operation Without EEPROM
The device provides the capability to customize operation without the use of an EEPROM. Descriptor information and
initialization quantities normally fetched from EEPROM and used to initialize descriptors and elements of the System
Control and Status Registers may be specified via an alternate mechanism. This alternate mechanism involves the use
of the Descriptor RAM in conjunction with the Attribute Registers and select elements of the System Control and Status
Registers. The software device driver orchestrates the process by performing the following actions in the order indi-
cated:
Initialization of SCSR Elements in Lieu of EEPROM Load
Attribute Register Initialization
Descriptor RAM Initialization
Enable Descriptor RAM and Attribute Registers as Source
Inhibit Reset of Select SCSR Elements
The following subsections explain these actions. The attribute registers must be written prior to initializing the Descriptor
RAM. Failure to do this will prevent the PWR_SEL and RMT_WKUP flags from being overwritten by the bmAttributes
of the Configuration Descriptor.
10.6.1 INITIALIZATION OF SCSR ELEMENTS IN LIEU OF EEPROM LOAD
During EEPROM operation, the following register fields are initialized by the hardware using the values contained in the
EEPROM. In the absence of an EEPROM, or configured OTP, the software device driver must initialize these quantities
as required for the application.

10.6.2 ATTRIBUTE REGISTER INITIALIZATION
The Attribute Registers are as follows:
BOS Descriptor Attributes Register (BOS_ATTR)
HS Descriptor Attributes Register (HS_ATTR)
FS Descriptor Attributes Register (FS_ATTR)
String Attributes Register 0 (STRNG_ATTR0)
String Attributes Register 1 (STRNG_ATTR1)
Flag Attributes Register (FLAG_ATTR)
All of these registers contain fields defining the lengths of the descriptors or block contents written into the Descriptor
RAM. If an item is not written into the Descriptor RAM, the associated entry in the Attributes Register must be written
as 0. Writing an erroneous or illegal length will result in untoward operation and unexpected results.
10.6.3 DESCRIPTOR RAM INITIALIZATION
The Descriptor RAM contents are initialized using the Data Port registers. The Data Port registers are used to select the
Descriptor RAM and write the descriptor elements into it. The Descriptor RAM is 512 bytes in length. Every descriptor/
block written into the Descriptor RAM must be DWORD aligned. The Attribute Registers discussed in Section 10.6.2
must be written with the length of the descriptors written into the Descriptor RAM. If a descriptor/block is not used, hence
not written into Descriptor RAM, its length must be written as 0 into the associated Attribute Register.
The descriptors/blocks must be written in the following order, starting at address 0 of the RAM and observing the
DWORD alignment rule:
Language ID (2 bytes)
Manufacturing String Descriptor (String Index 1)
Product Name String Descriptor (String Index 2)
Serial Number String Descriptor (String Index 3)
Configuration String Descriptor (String Index 4)
Interface String Descriptor (String Index 5)
BOS Block
HS Device Descriptor
HS Configuration Descriptor
FS Device Descriptor
FS Configuration Descriptor
An example of Descriptor RAM use is illustrated in Figure 10-9. In it, the BOS Block contains the BOS Descriptor (5
bytes), and a USB 2.0 Extension Descriptor (7 bytes) and a reserved 10 bytes for a total length of 22 bytes.
As in the case of descriptors specified in EEPROM, the following restrictions apply to descriptors written into Descriptor
RAM:
1. For Device Descriptors, the only valid values for the length are 0 and 18. The descriptor size for the Device
Note: The software device driver must initialize these registers prior to initializing the Descriptor RAM.
The bmAttributes field of the HS, and FS descriptors in descriptor RAM (if present) must be consistent with
the contents of the Power Method (PWR_SEL) field of the USB Configuration Register 0 (USB_CFG0).
Note: The Attribute Registers must be initialized before the Descriptor RAM.
Address 0 of the Descriptor RAM is always reserved for the Language ID, even if it will not be supported.

LAN7850
Descriptors specified in the Descriptor RAM is a don't care and always overwritten by HW to 0x12 when trans-
mitting the descriptor to the host.
2. The descriptor type for Device Descriptors specified in the Descriptor RAM is a don't care and is always overwrit-
ten by HW to 0x1 when transmitting the descriptor to the host.
3. For the Configuration and Interface descriptor, the only valid values for the length are 0 and 18. The descriptor
size for the Configuration Descriptors specified in the Descriptor RAM is a don't care and always overwritten by
HW to 0x12 when transmitting the descriptor to the host.
4. The descriptor type for the Configuration Descriptors specified in the Descriptor RAM is a don't care and always
overwritten by HW to 0x2 when transmitting the descriptor to the host.
5. If a string descriptor does not exist in the Descriptor RAM, the referencing descriptor must contain 00h for the
respective string index field.
6. If all string descriptor lengths are zero, then a Language ID will not be supported.
Note: The first entry in the Descriptor RAM is always reserved for the Language ID, even if it will not be supported.
Descriptors having bMaxPacketSize other than 40h when operating in Full-Speed or High-Speed mode will
result in unwanted behavior and untoward results. Descriptors having bNumConfigurations with values
other than 1 will result in unwanted behavior and untoward results.

10.6.4 ENABLE DESCRIPTOR RAM AND ATTRIBUTE REGISTERS AS SOURCE
The EEPROM Emulation Enable (EEM) bit of the Hardware Configuration Register (HW_CFG) must be set by the soft-
ware device driver to use the Descriptor RAM and the Attribute Registers for custom operation. Upon assertion of
EEPROM Emulation Enable (EEM), the hardware will utilize the Descriptor information contained in the Descriptor RAM,
the Attributes Registers, and the values of the items listed in Section 10.6.1 to facilitate custom operation.
10.6.5 INHIBIT RESET OF SELECT SCSR ELEMENTS
The software device driver must take care to ensure that the contents of the Descriptor RAM and SCSR register content
critical to custom operation using Descriptor RAM are preserved across reset operations other than POR. The driver
must configure the Reset Protection (RST_PROTECT) bit of the Hardware Configuration Register (HW_CFG) in order
to accomplish this.
The following registers have contents that can be preserved across all resets other than POR. Consult the registers

11.0 ONE TIME PROGRAMMABLE (OTP) MEMORY
The device integrates a 1K One Time Programmable (OTP) memory to store various configuration data and serve as
an EEPROM replacement to reduce bill of material costs. OTP programming is supported over USB to facilitate end
user customization. Microchip provides a comprehensive software programming tool, Pro-Touch, for configuring the
device’s OTP memory. All OTP configuration is to be performed via the Pro-Touch programming tool. For additional
information on the Pro-Touch programming tool, refer to www.microchip.com.
OTP may potentially co-exist with an external EEPROM. Refer to Section 10.1, "EEPROM and OTP Relationship," on
page 99 for details.
11.1 OTP Format
The OTP format is based upon the format specified for the EEPROM. See Section 10.4, "EEPROM Format," on
page 105 for details.
As with the EEPROM, a signature is required to define whether or not the OTP has been programmed. If the value 0xF3
or 0xF7 is found at byte 0, the OTP shall be determined to be programmed.
A signature of 0xF3 indicates that the device is configured using values (Mac Address and subsequent as per EEPROM
Contents) from byte offset 1 in the OTP. A value of 0xF7 indicates that the device is configured loading values (Mac
Address and subsequent as per EEPROM Contents) from byte offset 0x101 in the OTP.
APPLICATION NOTE: The dual signatures enable a mechanism for the OTP to be programmed twice. This may
prove useful for initial bring up of the device where inadvertently mis-programming the device
could render it non-functional. This scheme requires that when an offset of 0xF3 is used that
only the first 255 bytes of the OTP are programmed. In the event that the OTP was mis-
configured the device can be “saved” by changing the signature on byte 0 from 0xF3 to 0xF7
and writing the new content starting at byte 0x101.
APPLICATION NOTE: Software must ensure that the offsets are appropriately configured to support the dual 256
byte partitioning when this mode of operation is desired. Even when using 0xF7 the offsets
are still from 0x0.
As with the EEPROM, if a valid signature is not present at byte 0, the OTP shall be deemed to not be programmed and
the device will not use it for configuration.
11.2 OTP Interrupt
The OTP module’s interrupt has been mapped into the Interrupt Endpoint as well as the Interrupt Status Register
(INT_STS).
OTP program operations take a significant amount of time and therefore are posted. A general rule of thumb is 5 ms/
bit. The completion of a program operation is signified by the OTP Write Done Interrupt (OTP_WR_DONE_INT).
11.3 OTP System Reset
Certain system reset events cause the contents of the OTP to be re-loaded, as detailed in Section 12.0, "Resets". The
OTP is powered up initially after a reset event and its contents automatically loaded into the device’s Descriptor RAM
and various configuration CSRs. See Section 12.0, "Resets" for further details.

LAN7850
12.0 RESETS
The device provides the following chip-level reset sources:
Power-On Reset (POR)
External Chip Reset (RESET_N)
Lite Reset (LRST)
Soft Reset (SRST)
USB Reset
VBUS_DET
Additionally, the device provides a non-chip-level Ethernet PHY Software Reset.
12.1 Power-On Reset (POR)
A Power-On Reset (POR) occurs whenever power is initially applied to the device, or if power is removed and reapplied
to the device. A timer within the device will assert the internal reset for approximately 20 ms. EEPROM/OTP contents
are loaded by this reset.
The POR is a combination of five separate POR circuits that measure the voltage on the following domains:
Ethernet PHY 1.2 V
Ethernet PHY 2.5 V
USB PHY 1.2 V
USB PHY 3.3 V
VDDVARIO
After power up, the POR initially de-asserts after the Rising Threshold is passed. In the event that the supply drops
below the Falling Threshold the POR asserts. The POR stays asserted until the Rising Threshold is once again crossed.
The rising and falling thresholds are listed in Table 12-1.
APPLICATION NOTE: The POR on VDDVARIO targets 1.8 V I/O operation. If a higher voltage is used, than an
external POR may be required to provide full brown out detection on the I/O domain.
12.2 External Chip Reset (RESET_N)
A hardware reset will occur when the RESET_N pin is driven low. Assertion of RESET_N is not required at power-on.
However, if used, RESET_N must be driven low for a minimum period as defined in Section 16.6.2, "RESET_N Timing,"
on page 267. The RESET_N pin is pulled-high internally but must be connected externally to VDDVARIO if unused.
TABLE 12-1: POR THRESHOLDS
POR RISING THRESHOLD FALLING THRESHOLD
Ethernet PHY 1.2V 0.9 V 0.8 V
Ethernet PHY 2.5V 2.0 V 1.8 V
USB PHY 1.2V 0.9 V 0.8 V
USB PHY 3.3V 2.7 V 2.35 V
VDDVARIO 1.45 V 1.25 V
Note: If configured, the EEPROM/OTP contents are reloaded by this reset.
LAN7850
DS00001993D-page 124 2015 - 2017 Microchip Technology Inc.
12.3 Lite Reset (LRST)
This reset is initiated via the Soft Lite Reset (LRST) bit in the Hardware Configuration Register (HW_CFG). It will reset
the entire device with the exception of the USB Device Controller and the USB PHY. The PLL is not turned off during a
Lite Reset.
APPLICATION NOTE: Prior to issuing an LRST, system software shall stop activity on the device’s USB pipes. After
the LRST is issued, the system software shall restart the pipes. This process includes
sending CLEAR_FEATURE(ENDPOINT_HALT) for the device pipes, which causes data
toggle on the device side to be reset. The data toggle must also be reset for each pipe on
the host side.
12.4 Soft Reset (SRST)
Software initiated reset is accomplished by setting the Soft Reset (SRST) bit of Hardware Configuration Register
(HW_CFG). After this bit is set, the device soft detaches from the USB bus. The duration of the detachment is typically
10 ms for HS/FS. Upon expiration of this time, the device will completely reset itself and re-attach to the USB bus.
APPLICATION NOTE: The detachment time is programmable via the HS Detach Time (HS_DETACH) fields in USB
Configuration Register 2 (USB_CFG2).
12.5 USB Reset
A USB reset causes a reset of the entire device with the exception of the USB Device Controller and the USB PHY. The
USB PLL is not turned off. After a USB reset, the Device Ready (READY) bit in the Power Management Control Register
(PMT_CTL) can be read by the Host and will read back a ‘0’ until the EEPROM/OTP contents are loaded (provided one
is present). The device than can be configured via its control registers.
12.6 VBUS_DET
The removal of USB power causes the device to transition to the UNPOWERED state. The chip is held in reset while in
the UNPOWERED state.
12.7 Ethernet PHY Software Reset
An Ethernet PHY software reset is provided via the PHY Reset (PHY_RST) bit in the Power Management Control Reg-
ister (PMT_CTL). This reset is not a chip-level reset and resets only the Ethernet PHY. When asserted, the Gigabit
Ethernet PHY is reset for a minimum of 2 ms.
Note: This reset does not cause the USB contents from the EEPROM/OTP to be reloaded.
This reset does not place the device into the Unconfigured state.
The Soft Lite Reset (LRST) bit does not clear control register bits marked as NALR.
Note: If configured, the EEPROM/OTP contents are reloaded by this reset.
Note: This reset does not cause the entire contents from the EEPROM or OTP to be reloaded. Only the MAC
address is reloaded.
Note: After VBUS_DET is asserted, the contents of the EEPROM/OTP are reloaded, if configured.
Note: After transitioning out of the UNPOWERED state, the internal Ethernet PHY remains in reset to minimize
power.
2015 - 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. DS00001993D-page 125
LAN7850
The Device Ready (READY) bit in the Power Management Control Register (PMT_CTL) asserts when the Ethernet PHY
is functional. It may take over 100 ms for the device to become operational after this reset, depending on the state of
Disable Wait Analog Voltage Reference Stable (DIS_WAIT_ANA_REF) in Power Management Control Register
(PMT_CTL).

13.0 CLOCKS AND POWER MANAGEMENT (CPM)
The Clocks and Power Management (CPM) block is responsible for generating the device clocks and controlling the
power management logic. CPM functions include:
Enabling the host to place the device in a reduced power state, e.g. suspend state, by disabling internal clocks
and powering down various device blocks, including PLLs.
Providing detection of various wakeup events.
Providing a host-readable READY flag which is set when the device is in the NORMAL state.
Controlling the loading of OTP or EEPROM values after a system reset.
Supporting USB 2.0 Suspend
Supporting LPM extensions
These functions are detailed in the following sub-sections:
Device Clocking
Power States
Suspend States
Wake Events
13.1 Device Clocking
The device requires a fixed-frequency 25 MHz clock source. This is typically provided by attaching a 25 MHz crystal to
the XI and XO pins. The clock can optionally be provided by driving the XI input pin with a single-ended 25 MHz clock
source. If a single-ended source is selected, the clock input must run continuously for normal device operation.
Internally, the device generates its required clocks with a phase-locked loop (PLL). It reduces its power consumption in
several of its operating states by disabling its internal PLL and derivative clocks. The 25 MHz clock remains operational
in all states where power is applied.
Refer to Section 16.7, "Clock Circuit," on page 269 for additional clocking requirements.
13.2 Power States
The following power states are supported:
UNPOWERED
NORMAL (Unconfigured and Configured)
Suspend States (SUSPEND0, SUSPEND1, SUSPEND2, and SUSPEND3)
Figure 13-1 details the device power states and transitions. In order to simplify Figure 13-1, the USB Suspend and USB
Resume transitions are a superset of the following conditions:
USB Suspend: USB 2.0 Suspend
USB Resume: USB 2.0 Resume, transition to LPM L0
Additionally, only a subset of wake events are shown, due to space constraints. A detailed wakeup description is pro-
vided in the following sub-sections.
Note: It is not possible to transition from SUSPEND2 to NORMAL Configured if SUSPEND2 was entered via a
transition from NORMAL Unconfigured.
When the device is bus powered, VBUS_DET is externally tied to 1b. Therefore, the UNPOWERED state
only has meaning for self powered operation.
2015 - 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. DS00001993D-page 127
LAN7850
13.2.1 UNPOWERED STATE
The UNPOWERED state provides a mechanism for the device to conserve power when VBUS_DET is not connected
and the device is self powered.
The device initially enters the UNPOWERED state when a system reset occurs and USB power is not detected. This
state persists until the VBUS_DET is asserted. The UNPOWERED state is alternatively entered whenever VBUS_DET
de-asserts.
In the UNPOWERED state, the crystal oscillator and PLLs are turned off and the Ethernet PHY is disabled. Assertion
of VBUS_DET causes the device to enable the crystal oscillator and PLLs. When PLLs are stable, the device transitions
to the NORMAL-Unconfigured state.
In order to make the device fully operational, the host must configure the device, which places it in the NORMAL Con-
figured state.
13.2.2 NORMAL STATE
The NORMAL state is the functional state of the device. The are two versions of this state, NORMAL-Configured and
NORMAL-Unconfigured. In the configured variation all modules are enabled. The Unconfigured variation has only a
subset of the modules enabled to allow for power savings.
The NORMAL state is entered by any of the following methods.
A system reset and VBUS_DET is asserted
The device is in the UNPOWERED state and VBUS_DET is asserted
The device is in a SUSPENDx state and the host issues resume signaling.
The device is in a SUSPENDx state and a wake event is detected.
FIGURE 13-1: POWER STATES
LAN7850
DS00001993D-page 128 2015 - 2017 Microchip Technology Inc.
13.2.2.1 NORMAL-Unconfigured
Upon initially entering the NORMAL-Unconfigured state, the device is not configured. While unconfigured, the device
will only draw up to 100 mA per the USB 2.0 Specification. After being configured, an additional 400 mA may be con-
sumed when operating in USB 2.0 mode.
In order to maximize power savings in NORMAL-Unconfigured mode, the Gigabit Ethernet PHY is held in reset.
The device moves from the Normal-Unconfigured to Normal-Configured when directed by the host via the SetConfigu-
ration request. Likewise, the host can move the device back into the Normal-Unconfigured state with this request.
13.2.2.2 NORMAL-Configured
This is the fully operational state of the device where all clocking resources and analog blocks are enabled and func-
tional.
13.2.2.3 Reset Operation
After a system reset, the device is moved into the NORMAL-Unconfigured state (unless the device is self-powered and
VBUS_DET = 0). The host must then configure the device.
The following steps illustrate the process for a POR. The steps vary depending on the reset and the initial state of the
device.
13.2.2.4 Suspend Operation
When returning to the NORMAL state from a SUSPENDx state, the USB context is maintained. After entering the NOR-
MAL-Configured state, the Device Ready (READY) bit in the Power Management Control Register (PMT_CTL) is
asserted after the PHY is operational.
13.3 Suspend States
The suspend state is entered after the USB Host places the device in low power state as defined below:
USB 2.0 Suspend (LPM L2)
There are several variations of the suspend state available. Each state offers different options in terms of power con-
sumption and remote wakeup support.
A suspend state can only be entered via a transition from the NORMAL state. The Suspend Mode (SUSPEND_MODE)
field of the Power Management Control Register (PMT_CTL) indicates which suspend state is to be used. A transfer
back to the NORMAL state occurs when requested by the host (e.g. USB Resume signaling) or a configured wakeup
event is detected by the device.
When the device is in the NORMAL-Unconfigured state, it is only possible to transition to the SUSPEND2 state. After
being taken out of suspend, the device transitions back to NORMAL-Unconfigured.
13.3.1 RESET FROM SUSPEND
All suspend states must respond to USB Reset and RESET_N pin assertion. The application of these resets result in
the device being re-initialized and placed into the NORMAL-Unconfigured state.
Note: If the originating suspend state is SUSPEND2, then the host is required to reinitialize the Ethernet PHY
registers.
Note: If the device is deconfigured, then Suspend Mode (SUSPEND_MODE) resets to 10b.
2015 - 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. DS00001993D-page 129
LAN7850
13.3.2 SUSPEND0
This state is selected when the Suspend Mode (SUSPEND_MODE) field of the Power Management Control Register
(PMT_CTL) is set to 00b.
In this state the device can optionally be programmed to detect GPIO wake, Wake-On-LAN event, Magic Packet, PHY
Link Status, EEE wake, etc.. Refer to Section 13.4.2, "Enabling Wake Events," on page 133 for details on how to pro-
gram events that cause resumption from the SUSPEND0 state.
To maximize power savings the PLLs are shutdown. The 25 MHz crystal oscillator remains operational to clock the MAC
and the Gigabit Ethernet PHY.
The detection of a WOL event causes the PLL, as required for the established USB link, to be turned on and all output
clocks to be enabled.
APPLICATION NOTE: Additional power savings can be gained if the Ethernet Link is forced to negotiate to a lower
speed. However, this may have additional drawbacks. Studies done with drivers for prior
controllers have shown latencies in excess of four seconds.
13.3.3 SUSPEND1
This state is logically equivalent to SUSPEND0 and is selected when the Suspend Mode (SUSPEND_MODE) field of
the Power Management Control Register (PMT_CTL) is set to 00b.
13.3.4 SUSPEND2
This state is selected when the Suspend Mode (SUSPEND_MODE) field of the Power Management Control Register
(PMT_CTL) is set to 10b. SUSPEND2 is the default suspend mode.
SUSPEND2 consumes the least power of the suspend state options. It is the only option that meets the USB 2.5 mA
suspend power consumption requirement. In this state, GPIO assertion is the only remote wakeup source supported.
13.3.5 SUSPEND3
This state is selected when the Suspend Mode (SUSPEND_MODE) field of the Power Management Control Register
(PMT_CTL) is set to 11b.
In this suspend state, most clocks in the device are enabled and power consumption is similar to the NORMAL-Config-
ured state. Power savings is realized only in powering down the USB AFEs which happens automatically after the host
software moves the device into USB Suspend. The target for power savings in this state is the host CPU. This suspend
state shall be used for AOAC support and/or whenever the packet event that caused the wake event must be saved.
Refer to Section 13.4.2.1, "Enabling GPIO Wake Events," on page 133, Section 13.4.2.4, "Enabling “GOOD Frame”
Wake Events," on page 134, Section 13.4.2.2, "Enabling WOL Wake Events," on page 133, and Section 13.4.2.5,
"Enabling “AOAC” Wake events" for detailed instructions on how to program events that cause resumption from the
SUSPEND3 state. SUSPEND3 can also be exited when Energy Efficient Ethernet RX Wake (EEE_RX_WAKE) is set
with Energy Efficient Ethernet RX Wake Enable (EEE_RX_WAKE_EN) set or when Energy Efficient Ethernet TX Wake
(EEE_TX_WAKE) is set with Energy Efficient Ethernet TX Wake Enable (EEE_TX_WAKE_EN) set.
Unlike other suspend states, there is the capability to store the frame that triggered the wakeup into the RX FIFO. This
is discussed further in Section 13.4.2.5, "Enabling “AOAC” Wake events". After the wakeup frame is received, all sub-
sequent frames that pass the filtering constraints in the MAC and Receive Filtering Engine (RFE) are written into the RX
FIFO as well. This feature allows the OS to determine the cause of the wake event and report the packet and any fol-
lowing ones that were received while the USB bus has not yet been resumed.
To enable an aggressive suspend policy by the host, SUSPEND3 supports the concept of “Good Frame” wake-ups. In
this scenario any non-errored receive frame that passes the RFE filters causes a wakeup and is stored in the RX FIFO.
All subsequent frames are also written into the FIFO. Utilizing the RFE filter rules in the context of a wakeup is enabled
by the RFE Wakeup Frame Received (RFE_WAKE_FR) bit.
Note: Software may optionally enable ARP offload or NS offload in this state.
Note: It is appropriate to enable ARP offload and NS offload in this state, though it is completely under software
control and not enforced by hardware. For AOAC support, that is mandatory, and normally executed by the
operating system.

DS00001993D-page 130 2015 - 2017 Microchip Technology Inc.
13.3.6 NETDETACH
NetDetach is a mode of operation where the device detaches from the USB bus after the Ethernet cable is disconnected.
It is typically used in environments that cannot implement selective suspend when the link is down (such Windows OS
prior to Windows 8). This is advantageous for mobile devices, as an attached USB device prevents the host CPU from
entering the C3 state. Allowing the CPU to enter the C3 state maximizes battery life.
When detached, the device power state is essentially the same as the SUSPEND0 state. After the Ethernet cable is
reconnected, or a programmed GPIO pin asserts, the device automatically attaches to the USB bus.
NetDetach requires assistance of the host software driver. The driver will monitor the link status of the Ethernet PHY
and program the part appropriately to detach and re-attach to the USB bus upon link change. The following steps illus-
trate this process:
1. Ethernet cable is not detected.
2. Driver detects assertion of the PHY_INT bit via the interrupt control endpoint. The driver may also detect PHY
interrupt assertion by polling the Interrupt Status Register (INT_STS). It is also valid to only poll the PHY's link
status bit without looking at interrupt endpoint or interrupt status.
3. Driver reads the respective Ethernet PHY CSRs and determines that the link has been lost.
4. Driver programs the device and Ethernet PHY to detect Link Status Change from link down to link up.
5. Driver sets the NetDetach Enable (NETDET_EN) bit in the Hardware Configuration Register (HW_CFG). The
CONNECT function may also be enabled via the Hardware Configuration Register (HW_CFG).
6. The device then detaches from the USB bus and disables the PLLs. The driver is unloaded at this point and can
no longer communicate with the device.
7. At some point in the future, the Ethernet cable is reconnected and link is regained, or an appropriately configured
GPIO pin is asserted.
8. The device enables the USB PLLs and AFEs.
9. The device attaches to the USB bus.
10. The driver is loaded and the device is configured by the driver. The driver examines the NetDetach Status (NET-
DET_STS) bit in the Hardware Configuration Register (HW_CFG) to determine if it was reloaded as a result of
coming back from a NetDetach operation or for some other event. The driver may also disable the CONNECT
function if previously enabled.
APPLICATION NOTE: In order to maximize power savings it is recommended that the driver utilize the Enhanced
PHY power down feature of the Ethernet PHY (via Configuration Flags 0). Further power
savings may be obtained by forcing the link to 100 Mbps.
APPLICATION NOTE: GPIO wakes are supported in this state.

Global Unicast frame
Broadcast frame
Perfect DA Match
TCP SYN Packet
“Good” Frame

Table 13-1 illustrates the wake events permitted in each of the power states.
The occurrence of a GPIO wake event causes the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Status Register (INT_STS) to be
set. Before suspending the device, the host must ensure that any pending wake events are cleared. Otherwise, the
device will immediately be awakened after being suspended.

13.4.1 DETECTING WAKEUP EVENTS
The device supports the ability to generate remote wakeup events. A simplified diagram of the wake event detection
logic is shown in Figure 13-2.
When an enabled remote wake event is detected, the USB Device Controller notifies the host. For HS mode, remote
wakeup signaling is issued. The device can also de-assert the SUSPEND_N pin, depending on its configuration.
In addition to the above, the device also supports remote wakeup. In HS/FS mode the DEVICE_REMOTE_WAKEUP
feature must be set.

13.4.2 ENABLING WAKE EVENTS
The following sub-sections detail the procedure for enabling various wake events:
Enabling GPIO Wake Events
Enabling WOL Wake Events
Enabling Link status Change Wake Events
Enabling “GOOD Frame” Wake Events
Enabling “AOAC” Wake events
13.4.2.1 Enabling GPIO Wake Events
The Host system shall perform the following steps to enable the device to issue a remote wake event on detection of a
GPIO wake.
1. The GPIO pin is programmed to facilitate generation of the wake event.The respective GPIO must be enabled
via GPIO Enable (GPIOEN) of General Purpose IO Configuration 0 Register (GPIO_CFG0) or GPIO Enable
(GPIOEN) of General Purpose IO Configuration 1 Register (GPIO_CFG1).
2. The GPIO pin must be enabled for wakeup and its desired polarity specified in the GPIO Wake 0-11 (GPI-
OWK[11:0]) and GPIO Polarity 0-11 (GPIOPOL[11:0]) fields, respectively, of the General Purpose IO Wake
Enable and Polarity Register (GPIO_WAKE).
3. The Host places the device in the any one of the SUSPEND states by setting the Suspend Mode (SUSPEND_-
MODE) field of the Power Management Control Register (PMT_CTL) to indicate the desired suspend state, then
sends suspend signaling.
4. On detection of an enabled GPIO wake event, the device will transition back to the NORMAL state and signal a
remote wake event. The Host may then examine the GPIO [11:0] (GPIOx_INT_WK) status bits of the Wakeup
Source Register (WK_SRC) to determine the source of the wakeup.
13.4.2.2 Enabling WOL Wake Events
The Host system shall perform the following steps to enable the device to assert a remote wake event on detection of
a Wake on LAN event.
1. All transmit and receive operations must be halted: All pending Ethernet TX and RX operations must be com-
pleted. The MAC RX and TX paths are disabled.
2. The MAC must be configured to detect the desired wake event. This process is explained in Section 8.3.2.2,
"Wakeup Frame Detection," on page 78 for Wakeup Frames and in Section 8.3.2.3, "Magic Packet Detection,"
on page 80 for Magic Packets. Configuring Perfect DA and Broadcast Frame wakeup detection is analogous and
requires the Perfect DA Frame Received (PFDA_FR) or Broadcast Wakeup Enable (BCAST_EN) bit to be set in
the Wakeup Control and Status Register 1 (WUCSR1).
3. Bit 1 of the Wakeup Status (WUPS[1]) in the Power Management Control Register (PMT_CTL) must be cleared
since a set bit will cause the immediate assertion of wake event when the Wake-On-LAN Enable (WOL_EN) bit
is set. The WUPS[1] bit will not clear if the internal MAC wakeup event is asserted.
4. Set the Wake-On-LAN Enable (WOL_EN) bit in the Power Management Control Register (PMT_CTL).
5. The MAC RX path is re-enabled.
6. The Host places the device in SUSPEND0 or SUSPEND3 state by appropriately setting the Suspend Mode
(SUSPEND_MODE) field in the Power Management Control Register (PMT_CTL), to indicate the desired sus-
pend state. The host then sends suspend signaling.
On detection of an enabled event, the device will transition back to the NORMAL state and signal a wake event. Upon
discovering wakeup occurred, the status bits of the Wakeup Source Register (WK_SRC) may be examined to determine
the particular event that caused the wakeup.
LAN7850
DS00001993D-page 134 2015 - 2017 Microchip Technology Inc.
13.4.2.3 Enabling Link status Change Wake Events
The Host system must perform the following steps to enable the device to assert a remote_wake event on detection of
an Ethernet link status change or Energy Detection.
1. Ethernet cable is not detected or has become disconnected.
2. All transmit and receive operations must be halted: All pending Ethernet TX and RX operations must be com-
pleted. The MAC RX and TX paths are disabled.
3. The appropriate CSRs are configured in the PHY to enable the Energy and Link Status Change detection. The
Link State-Change Interrupt Mask is unmasked and the PHY asserts its interrupt when the condition is detected.
4. Bit 0 of the Wakeup Status (WUPS[0]) in the Power Management Control Register (PMT_CTL) must be cleared,
since a set bit will cause the immediate assertion of wake event when PHY Interrupt Enable (PHY_WAKE_EN)
is set. The WUPS[0] bit will not clear if the internal PHY interrupt is asserted.
5. Set the PHY Interrupt Enable (PHY_WAKE_EN) bit in the Power Management Control Register (PMT_CTL).
6. The Host places the device in SUSPEND0 or SUSPEND1 state by appropriately setting the Suspend Mode
(SUSPEND_MODE) field in the Power Management Control Register (PMT_CTL), to indicate the desired sus-
pend state, then sends suspend signaling.
7. On detection of Ethernet activity, the device will signal a remote wake event and transition back to the NORMAL
state upon examining the Wakeup Source Register (WK_SRC) the software can know the source was a link
change and process it accordingly.
13.4.2.4 Enabling “GOOD Frame” Wake Events
The Host system must perform the following steps to enable the device to initiate a remote wake event on detection of
a “Good Frame”. A “Good Frame” being an Ethernet frame that is not corrupted and passes the RFE filter rules as
enabled by the Receive Filtering Engine Control Register (RFE_CTL).
After reception of the “Good Frame” all valid subsequent frames received are placed in the Receive FIFO. The frame
that caused the “Good Frame” wake may also be stored in the FIFO if Store Wakeup Frame (STORE_WAKE) is set.
1. All transmit and receive operations must be halted: All pending Ethernet TX and RX operations must be com-
pleted. The MAC RX and TX paths are disabled.
2. Frame filtering is configured by setting the desired constraints in the Receive Filtering Engine Control Register
(RFE_CTL). The RFE Wake Enable (RFE_WAKE_EN) is set in Wakeup Control and Status Register 1
(WUCSR1) as well as Wake-On-LAN Enable (WOL_EN) bit of the Power Management Control Register
(PMT_CTL) shall be set to zero.
3. The device may be configured to store the wakeup frame in the FCT RX FIFO by setting Store Wakeup Frame
(STORE_WAKE) in the Wakeup Control and Status Register 1 (WUCSR1).
4. Bit 1 of the Wakeup Status (WUPS[1]) in the Power Management Control Register (PMT_CTL) must be cleared
since a set bit will cause the immediate assertion of a wake event. The WUPS[1] bit will not clear if the internal
MAC wakeup event is asserted.
5. The MAC RX path is re-enabled.
6. The Host places the device in the SUSPEND3 state by setting the Suspend Mode (SUSPEND_MODE) field in
the Power Management Control Register (PMT_CTL), to indicate the desired suspend state, and then sends sus-
pend signaling.
7. On detection of a “Good Frame”, the device transitions back to the NORMAL state and signals a remote wake
event.
8. Upon discovering a wakeup occurred software shall examine the Wakeup Source Register (WK_SRC). Host soft-
ware shall perform the desired processing as a result of receiving the “Good Frame” which typically includes
passing the received packet up the normal receive path of the software stack.
13.4.2.5 Enabling “AOAC” Wake events
This section describes how to configure the device for AOAC operation.

LAN7850
After an extended period of idle time, as defined by the host OS, it is desirable to place the system in a deep sleep state.
In order to maximize the duration in which the system can stay in sleep the network interfaces, in this case Ethernet,
are configured to offload several tasks that would normally awaken the host. The host is only awakened when a pre-
programmed wakeup pattern is received. The wakeup frame is stored in the RX FIFO to allow the OS to evaluate the
cause of the wakeup as well as pass it up the normal receive path (i.e. so that TCP socket connections can be main-
tained without retries).
The driver may consult Wakeup Frame Received bit of RX Command C to determine which packet in the RX FIFO insti-
gated the wakeup event. It is not guaranteed that the first packet written into the FIFO caused the wakeup. It is possible
for a data frame to have been written into the FIFO while the part is being suspended.
All frames received after wakeup frame are also stored in the FIFO. However these frames must also pass any addi-
tional filtering rules programmed into the MAC and RFE as well a frame corruption checks (e.g. FCS).
APPLICATION NOTE: In order to minimize system latency to the full operational state, and allow an aggressive
suspend/resume policy, the Ethernet link should not be change (i.e. 100 Mbps mode when
Gigabit link exists).
1. All transmit and receive operations must be halted: All pending Ethernet TX and RX operations must be com-
pleted. The MAC RX and TX paths are disabled.
2. The MAC must be configured to detect the desired wake event. The wakeup filters are appropriately configured
by the host via the Wakeup Filter x Configuration Register (WUF_CFGx) and Wakeup Filter x Byte Mask Regis-
ters (WUF_MASKx). This process is explained in Section 8.3.2.2, "Wakeup Frame Detection," on page 78 for
Wakeup Frames. Other wake events such as TCP SYN or Magic Packet may also be enabled.
3. Bit 1 of the Wakeup Status (WUPS[1]) in the Power Management Control Register (PMT_CTL) must be cleared
since a set bit will cause the immediate assertion of wake event when the Wake-On-LAN Enable (WOL_EN) bit
is set. The WUPS[1] bit will not clear if the internal MAC wakeup event is asserted.
4. Set the Wake-On-LAN Enable (WOL_EN) bit in the Power Management Control Register (PMT_CTL).
5. The device shall be configured to store the wakeup frame in the FCT RX FIFO by setting Store Wakeup Frame
(STORE_WAKE) in the Wakeup Control and Status Register 1 (WUCSR1).
6. The device shall be configured to disable RFE filtering on wakeup frames by setting Always Pass Wakeup Frame
(PASS_WKP) in Receive Filtering Engine Control Register (RFE_CTL).
7. The device is configured to enable ARP and NS offloads. See Section 8.6, "ARP Offload," on page 85 and Sec-
tion 8.5, "Neighbor Solicitation (NS) Offload," on page 83 for details on how to configure these functions.
8. The MAC RX and TX paths are re-enabled.
9. The Host places the device in the SUSPEND3 state by setting the Suspend Mode (SUSPEND_MODE) field in
the Power Management Control Register (PMT_CTL) to 11b, to indicate the desired suspend state, then sends
suspend signaling.
10. On detection of an enabled wake event, the device transitions back to the NORMAL state and signals a remote
wake event. The software will then examine the Wakeup Source Register (WK_SRC) and perform the desired
processing which may include passing the packet up to the operating system if the wake event was due to recep-
tion of a WOL packet.

14.0 POWER MANAGEMENT EVENT (PME) OPERATION
The device provides a mechanism for waking up a host system via the Power Management Event (PME) mode of oper-
ation. PME signaling is only available while the device is operating in the self powered mode and a properly configured
EEPROM is attached. Figure 14-1 illustrates a typical application.
The Host Processor is connected to a Chipset containing the Host USB Controller (HC). The USB Host Controller inter-
faces to the device via the USB signals. An Embedded Controller (EC) signals the Chipset and the Host processor to
power up via an Enable signal. The EC interfaces to the device via four signals. The PME_N signal is an input to the
EC from the device that indicates the occurrence of a wakeup event. The VBUS_DET output of the EC is used to indicate
bus power availability. The PME_CLEAR (RESET_N) signal is used to clear the PME. The PME_MODE signal is sam-
pled by the device when PME_CLEAR (RESET_N) is de-asserted and is used by the device to determine whether it
should remain in PME mode or resume normal operation.
FIGURE 14-1: TYPICAL APPLICATION
2015 - 2017 Microchip Technology Inc. DS00001993D-page 137
LAN7850
The application scenario in Figure 14-1 assumes that the Host Processor and the Chipset are powered off, the EC is
operational, and the device is in PME mode, waiting for a wake event to occur. A wake event will result in the device
signaling a PME event to the EC, which will then wake up the Host Processor and Chipset via the Enable signal. The
EC asserts VBUS_DET after the USB bus is powered, sets PME_MODE to determine whether the device is to begin
normal operation or continue in PME mode, and asserts PME_CLEAR (RESET_N) to clear the PME.
APPLICATION NOTE: After de-assertion of PME_CLEAR, the device is configured. Configuration may entail
loading data from EEPROM or OTP if EEPROM-less mode is not used. The EC should not
sample PME_N during this time, which is dependent on the amount of data programmed in
OTP/EEPROM, as the polarity and behavior of PME_N has not yet been configured. For
EEPROM-less or OTP mode, the PME shall be valid within 1 ms. For an external EEPROM
this will be a function of the amount of data programmed in the EEPROM. If all 512 bytes
are programmed, the maximum delay is under 16 ms. Refer to Section 16.6.4, "EEPROM
Timing," on page 268 for additional details.
APPLICATION NOTE: If EEPROM-less mode is used, out-of-box wake is not supported. PME can only support
wakes with no EEPROM/OTP if the desired device’s wakes mentioned below are configured
by system software over USB before entering PME mode.
The following wake events are supported:
Wakeup Pin(s)
The GPIO pins not reserved for PME handling have the capability to wake up the device when operating in PME
mode. In order for a GPIO to generate a wake event, it’s enable bit must be set in the GPIO[7:0] Wakeup Enables
and GPIO[11:8] Wakeup Enables fields of the EEPROM (or OTP). The polarity may also be set with GPIO[7:0]
Wakeup Polarity and GPIO[11:8] Wakeup Polarity.
Magic Packet
Reception of a Magic Packet when in PME mode will result in a PME being asserted.
WUFF
Reception of a packet matching the WUFF when in PME mode will result in a PME being asserted.
Perfect DA match of Physical address
Reception of an Ethernet frame whose Destination address matches the device’s MAC address will result in a
PME being asserted.
Broadcast Packet
Reception of a Broadcast Packet when in PME mode will result in a PME being asserted.
PHY Link Change
Detection of a PHY link partner when in PME mode will result in a PME being asserted.
In order to facilitate PME mode of operation, the GPIO PME Enable bit in the GPIO PME Flags 0 field must be set and
all remaining GPIO PME Flags 0 and GPIO PME Flags 1 bits must be appropriately configured for pulse or level signal-
ing, buffer type, and GPIO PME WoL selection.
The PME_MODE pin must be driven to the value that determines whether or not the device remains in PME mode of
operation (1) or resumes normal operation (0) when the PME is recognized and cleared by the EC via PME_CLEAR
(RESET_N) assertion.
When in PME mode, RESET_N (PME_CLEAR) or POR will always cause the contents of the EEPROM to be reloaded.
Figure 14-2 flowcharts PME operation while Magic Packet is enabled with a configured EEPROM/OTP in place. The
following conditions hold for OTP/EEPROM Configuration:
GPIO PME Enable = 1 (enabled)
GPIO PME Configuration = 0 (PME signaled via level)
GPIO PME Length = 0 (NA)
GPIO PME Polarity = 1 (high level signals event)
GPIO PME Buffer Type = 1 (Push-Pull)
PME Packet Enable = 1
PME Perfect DA Enable = 0
PME WUFF Enable = 0
Power Method (CFG0_PWR_SEL) = 1 (self powered)
MAC address for Magic Packet
LAN7850
DS00001993D-page 138 2015 - 2017 Microchip Technology Inc.
Optionally, the Enhanced PHY feature of the Gigabit Ethernet PHY may be enabled during PME operation to further
save power. This is controlled by following Configuration Flags 0 fields:
Enhanced PHY Sleep Timer (PHY_SLEEP_TIMER)
Enhanced PHY Wake Timer (PHY_WAKE_TIMER)
Link Time Out Control (LINK_TIME_OUT_CTRL)
Enhanced PHY Enable (ACT_PHY_EN)
Note: If utilizing PME mode the system software must appropriately configure the Flag Attributes Register
(FLAG_ATTR).
A POR occurring when PME_MODE = 1 and GPIO PME Enable is set in EEPROM/OTP, results in the
device entering PME Mode.
In this mode the Ethernet interface operates at the negotiated speed.

010 = EWEN
011 = WRITE
100 = WRAL
101 = ERASE
110 = ERAL

READ (Read Location): This command will cause a read of the EEPROM
location pointed to by EPC Address (EPC_ADDR). The result of the read is
available in the E2P_DATA register.
EWDS (Erase/Write Disable): After issued, the EEPROM will ignore erase
and write commands. To re-enable erase/write operations, issue the EWEN
command.
EWEN (Erase/Write Enable): Enables the EEPROM for erase and write
operations. The EEPROM will allow erase and write operations until the
Erase/Write Disable command is sent, or until power is cycled.
Note: The EEPROM device will power-up in the erase/write-disabled
state. Any erase or write operations will fail until an Erase/Write
Enable command is issued.
WRITE (Write Location): If erase/write operations are enabled in the
EEPROM, this command will cause the contents of the E2P_DATA register
to be written to the EEPROM location selected by the EPC Address
(EPC_ADDR) field.
WRAL (Write All): If erase/write operations are enabled in the EEPROM,
this command will cause the contents of the E2P_DATA register to be written
to every EEPROM memory location.
ERASE (Erase Location): If erase/write operations are enabled in the
EEPROM, this command will erase the location selected by the EPC
Address (EPC_ADDR) field.
ERAL (Erase All): If erase/write operations are enabled in the EEPROM,
this command will initiate a bulk erase of the entire EEPROM.
RELOAD (Data Reload): Instructs the EEPROM Controller to reload the
data from the EEPROM. If a value of A5h is not found in the first address of
the EEPROM, the EEPROM is assumed to be un-programmed and the
Reload operation will fail. The EPC Data Loaded (EPC_DL) bit indicates a
successful load of the data.
Note: A failed reload operation will result in no change to descriptor
information or register contents. These items will not be set to
default values as a result of the reload failure.

15.1.13 EEPROM DATA REGISTER (E2P_DATA)
This register is used in conjunction with the E2P_CMD register to perform read and write operations to the Serial
EEPROM.
10 EPC Time-out (EPC_TO)
If an EEPROM operation is performed, and there is no response from the
EEPROM within 30mS, the EEPROM Controller will time-out and return to
its idle state. This bit is set when a time-out occurs, indicating that the last
operation was unsuccessful.
Note: If the EEDI pin is pulled-high (default if left unconnected), EPC
commands will not time out if the EEPROM device is missing. In
this case, the EPC Busy bit will be cleared as soon as the
command sequence is complete. It should also be noted that the
ERASE, ERAL, WRITE and WRAL commands are the only EPC
commands that will time-out if an EEPROM device is not present
and the EEDI signal is pulled low.

7:6 Back Off Limit (BOLMT)
The BOLMT bits allow the user to set its back-off limit in a relaxed or
aggressive mode. According to IEEE 802.3, the MAC has to wait for a
random number [r] of slot-times after it detects a collision, where:
(eq.1)0 < r < 2K
The exponent K is dependent on how many times the current frame to be
transmitted has been retried, as follows:
(eq.2)K = min (n, 10) where n is the current number of retries.
If a frame has been retried three times, then K = 3 and r= 8 slot-times
maximum. If it has been retried 12 times, then K = 10, and r = 1024 slot-
times maximum.
An LFSR (linear feedback shift register) counter emulates a random number
generator, from which r is obtained. Once a collision is detected, the number
of the current retry of the current frame is used to obtain K (eq.2). This value
of K translates into the number of bits to use from the LFSR counter. If the
value of K is 3, the MAC takes the value in the first three bits of the LFSR
counter and uses it to count down to zero on every slot-time. This effectively
causes the MAC to wait eight slot-times. To give the user more flexibility, the
BOLMT value forces the number of bits to be used from the LFSR counter
to a predetermined value as in the table below.
Thus, if the value of K = 10, the MAC will look at the BOLMT if it is 00, then use
the lower ten bits of the LFSR counter for the wait countdown. If the BOLMT is 10,
then it will only use the value in the first four bits for the wait countdown, etc.
Slot-time = 512 bit times. (See IEEE 802.3 Spec., Sections 4.2.3.2.5 and
4.4.2.1).
Note: This bit should not be modified while the MAC's receiver or
transmitter is enabled (Receiver Enable (RXEN) or Transmitter
Enable (TXEN) bit set).

15.1.41 FLOW CONTROL REGISTER (FLOW)
This register is used to control the handling of the RX and TX flow control frames by the MAC.
RX flow control frames are received by the MAC. When RX flow control is enabled, the MAC will pause transmissions
from the transmit data path for the amount of time specified in the flow control frame.
TX flow control frames may be generated manually or automatically using RX FIFO thresholds. By setting the
FORCE_FC bit, a flow control frame will be manually transmitted with the value specified by Pause Time (FCPT). After
the frame is transmitted, the FORCE_FC bit clears.
Whenever TX_FCEN is set, transmit flow control frames are generated automatically, based on the thresholds set in the
FCT Flow Control Threshold Register (FCT_FLOW). Whenever the high watermark is crossed (RX Data FIFO Used
Space (RXUSED) / 512 greater than or equal to Flow Control On Threshold), the MAC transmits a flow control frame
with the pause value specified by the Pause Time (FCPT) field. When the low watermark is subsequently crossed (RX
Data FIFO Used Space (RXUSED) / 512 less than or equal to Flow Control Off Threshold), the MAC transmits a flow
control frame with a pause value of zero.
Flow Control is only applicable when the MAC is set in full duplex mode.

Whenever the TX FIFO is empty, the device checks the Energy Efficient Ethernet Enable (EEEEN) bit of the MAC Con-
trol Register (MAC_CR) to determine whether or not the Energy Efficient Ethernet mode of operation is in effect. If the
bit is clear, no action is taken, otherwise, the device waits the amount of time indicated in this register. After the wait
period has expired, the LPI protocol is initiated and the Energy Efficient Ethernet Start TX Low Power Interrupt
(EEE_START_TX_LPI_INT) bit of the Interrupt Status Register (INT_STS) will be set.
Note: Due to a 1us pre-scaler, the actually time can be up to 1us longer than specified.
Note: A value of zero is valid and will cause no delay to occur.
If the TX FIFO becomes non-empty, the timer is restarted.
APPLICATION NOTE: A value of zero may adversely affect the ability of the TX data path to support Gigabit
operation. A reasonable value when the part is operating at Gigabit speeds is 50 us. This
value may be increased pending the results of performance testing with EEE enabled. The
motivation for 802.3az is the scenario where the EEE link is idle most of the time with the
occasional full bandwidth transmission bursts. Aggressively optimizing power consumption
during pockets of inactivity is not the objective for this mode of operation.

These registers are used when NS Offload Enable (NS_OFFLOAD_EN) is set in the Wakeup Control and Status Reg-
ister 2 (WUCSR2). Received packets whose Ethernet destination address is the device’s MAC address, a multi-cast
address, or the broadcast address are processed as follows:
The headers of all IPv6 packets are checked to determine whether (for 0<=x<=1) NSx IPv6 Destination Address Reg-
ister (NSx_IPV6_ADDR_DEST) matches the destination address specified in the IPv6 header. In the event that the IPv6
header destination address is a solicited node multicast address (i.e. it has a prefix that matches FF02::1:FF00:0/104),
only the upper three bytes (NSx_IPv6_ADDR_DEST_3 [127:104]) are compared against the last 24 bits of the IPv6
header destination address.

secutive (DWORD) registers. The DWORD offset required to access a particular portion of the address is indicated in
the following table. The start offset of the least significant DWORD register for the 128-bit address block is the first ele-
ment in the range indicated in the preceding table and in the register map, Table 15-2, “System Control and Status Reg-
isters Map,” on page 141.
This register is utilized when IPv6 TCP SYN Wake Enable (IPV6_TCPSYN_WAKE_EN) is set in the Wakeup Control
and Status Register 2 (WUCSR2) and the device is in the SUSPEND0 or SUSPEND3 state. It holds the destination
address to be compared to that of the IPv6 header (or an extension header) prefixing a TCP packet whose SYN bit is
asserted. The IPv6 frame must have previously passed a check to ensure that its destination address is the device’s
MAC address, a multi-cast address, or the broadcast address.
Valid TCP packets whose SYN bit is asserted, having an IPv6 header whose source address and destination address
match those specified by the SYN IPv6 Source Address Register (SYN_IPV6_ADDR_SRC) and the SYN IPv6 Desti-
nation Address Register (SYN_IPV6_ADDR_DEST), and whose source port and destination port match those specified
by the SYN IPv6 TCP Ports Register (SYN_IPV6_TCP_PORTS), will cause a wakeup.
Please refer to Section 8.3.4, "IPv6 TCP SYN Detection," on page 82 for further information.
The ordering for transmission of the IPv6 address over Ethernet is illustrated in Table 15-5, "IPv6 Address Transmission
Byte Ordering".
Offset: 6ACh - 6B8h Size: 32 bits
Note: A value of all 0’s in all 4 DWORD registers equates to a wild-card, causes checking to be ignored, and
yields a match.

15.1.66 SYN IPV6 TCP PORTS REGISTER (SYN_IPV6_TCP_PORTS)
This register is utilized when IPv6 TCP SYN Wake Enable (IPV6_TCPSYN_WAKE_EN) is set in the Wakeup Control
and Status Register 2 (WUCSR2) and the device is in the SUSPEND0 state. It holds the source and destination ports
to be compared to that of received TCP packets whose SYN bit is asserted that are prefixed by a IPv6 header or exten-
sion header.
IPv6 frames whose destination address is the device’s MAC address, a multi-cast address, or the broadcast address
are processed as follows:
A check is made for a TCP protocol match within the IPv6 header. Valid TCP packets whose SYN bit is asserted, having
an IPv6 header whose source address and destination address match those specified in the SYN IPv6 Source Address
Register (SYN_IPV6_ADDR_SRC) and the SYN IPv6 Destination Address Register (SYN_IPV6_ADDR_DEST), and
whose source port and destination port match those specified by the SYN IPv6 TCP Ports Register (SYN-
_IPV6_TCP_PORTS), will cause a wakeup.

15.1.67 ARP SENDER PROTOCOL ADDRESS REGISTER (ARP_SPA)
This register is utilized when ARP offload is enabled in the Wakeup Control and Status Register 2 (WUCSR2). The frame
type for all received Ethernet frames is examined and those of type 0806h (ARP frames) are checked to ensure that the
MAC destination address matches the device’s MAC address or is the broadcast address. If the packet passes these
tests, the contents of this register is compared to the SPA field of the ARP message and the contents of the ARP Target
Protocol Address Register (ARP_TPA) is compared to the TPA field of the ARP message. If the contents of both regis-
ters match the contents of the message and no errors occurred on the frame, then the MAC TX is signaled to transmit
an ARP response frame to the sender.
Please refer to Section 8.6, "ARP Offload," on page 85 for further information.
15.1.68 ARP TARGET PROTOCOL ADDRESS REGISTER (ARP_TPA)
This register is utilized when ARP offload is enabled in the Wakeup Control and Status Register 2 (WUCSR2). The frame

tests, the contents of the ARP Sender Protocol Address Register (ARP_SPA) is compared to the SPA field of the ARP
message and the contents of the this register is compared to the TPA field of the ARP message. If the contents of both
registers match the contents of the message and no errors occurred on the frame, then the MAC TX is signaled to trans-
mit an ARP response frame to the sender.

15.3 Ethernet PHY Control and Status Registers
The Ethernet PHY registers are not memory mapped. These registers are accessed indirectly through the Ethernet
MAC via the MII Access Register (MII_ACCESS) and MII Data Register (MII_DATA). The Ethernet PHY provides access
to the following main categories of registers:
Ethernet PHY Main Page Registers
Ethernet PHY Extended Page 1 Registers
Ethernet PHY Extended Page 2 Registers
Note: Access to the PHY register pages is controlled via the Ethernet PHY Extended Page Access Register.
When extended page 1 or 2 register access is enabled, reads and writes to registers 16 through 30 affect
the extended registers for the corresponding page instead of the main page registers in the IEEE-specified
register space. Registers 0 through 15 are not affected by the state of the extended page register access.
Writing 0000h to the Ethernet PHY Extended Page Access Register restores main page register access.
Note: All unlisted register index values are not supported and should not be addressed.

Note: No status bit is set in the Ethernet PHY Interrupt Status Register if the corresponding interrupt mask bit in
the Ethernet PHY Interrupt Mask Register is clear. When an interrupt mask is clear, the actual correspond-
ing interrupt condition may still be set internally (i.e., it is “pending”), but will not be reflected in the corre-
sponding Ethernet PHY Interrupt Status Register bit. In the latter case, any pending internal interrupt
condition will be reflected in the corresponding Ethernet PHY Interrupt Status Register bit when the corre-
sponding bit is set in the Ethernet PHY Interrupt Mask Register. The actual interrupt condition will be
cleared when the Ethernet PHY Interrupt Status Register is read, but only if the corresponding interrupt
mask bit is set at the time of the Ethernet PHY Interrupt Status Register read. Therefore, the following
sequence for enabling interrupts is recommended:
1. Write the Ethernet PHY Interrupt Mask Register to enable the desired interrupts by setting the individual
bits, but DO NOT set the Interrupt Enable bit. This prevents any pending interrupts from being reflected on
the Interrupt Status bit of the Ethernet PHY Interrupt Status Register and therefore the interrupt pin will not
assert.
2. Read the Ethernet PHY Interrupt Status Register to clear any pending interrupts for enabled interrupt
sources. If necessary, service those actions as required.
3. Write the Ethernet PHY Interrupt Mask Register to enable the desired interrupts (set individual bits) AND
the Interrupt Enable bit concurrently. Now all desired NEW interrupts can be received with no risk of previ-
ously generated interrupts being reflected.

no EEPROM is present then the value programmed in OTP is used. If OTP is not configured then
0b is the default. A USB Reset or Lite Reset (LRST) will cause this field to be restored to the image
value last loaded from EEPROM, or OTP, or to be set to 0b if neither is present.
Note 15-65 The default value of this field is determined by the value of the Enhanced PHY Enable

Note 16-1 When powering this device from laboratory or system power supplies, it is important that the absolute
maximum ratings not be exceeded or device failure can result. Some power supplies exhibit voltage
spikes on their outputs when AC power is switched on or off. In addition, voltage transients on the
AC power line may appear on the DC output. If this possibility exists, it is suggested to use a clamp
circuit.
*Stresses exceeding those listed in this section could cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress rating
only. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability. Functional
operation of the device at any condition exceeding those indicated in Section 16.2, "Operating Conditions**", Section
16.5, "DC Specifications", or any other applicable section of this specification is not implied.

16.7 Clock Circuit
The device can accept either a 25MHz crystal (preferred) or a 25 MHz single-ended clock oscillator (+/- 50ppm) input.
If the single-ended clock oscillator method is implemented, XO should be left unconnected and XI should be driven with
a nominal 0-3.3V clock signal. The input clock duty cycle is 40% minimum, 50% typical and 60% maximum.
It is recommended that a crystal utilizing matching parallel load capacitors be used for the crystal input/output signals
(XI/XO). See Table 16-13 for the recommended crystal specifications.
Note 16-6 The maximum allowable values for Frequency Tolerance and Frequency Stability are application
dependent. Since any particular application must meet the IEEE +/-50 PPM Total PPM Budget, the
combination of these two values must be approximately +/-45 PPM (allowing for aging).
Note 16-7 Frequency Deviation Over Time is also referred to as Aging.
Note 16-8 The total deviation for the Transmitter Clock Frequency is specified by IEEE 802.3u as +/- 50 PPM.
Note 16-9 0oC for commercial version, -40oC for industrial version.
Note 16-10 +70oC for commercial version, +85oC for industrial version.
Note 16-11 This number includes the pad, the bond wire and the lead frame. PCB capacitance is not included
in this value. The XI/XO pin and PCB capacitance values are required to accurately calculate the
value of the two external load capacitors. These two external load capacitors determine the accuracy
of the 25.000 MHz frequency.
