ST201

PRELIMINARY draft 2

The loopback modes available to a host system when using the ST201 are shown in Table 3.

External loopback type is controlled by the Mll PHY device. The host system must enable a loopback mode
within MII PHY device using the MII Management Interface. For the true “on-the-wire” loopback mode, use
a loopback plug (connector), clear all of the loopback bits, set the FullDuplexEnable bit in the MACCtrl reg-
ister, and enable the full duplex mode within the MII PHY device.

30

Paused

This read-only status bit is set by ST201 to indicate that a PAUSE MAC
Control frame had been received and halted the transmit MAC for the
duration of the pause_time. It is cleared when the MAC can resume
transmission.
