machine is active as is the collision detection logic. The
programming of MENDECL has no effect in this mode.
Miscellaneous Loopback Features
All transmit and receive function programming, such as
automatic transmit padding and receive pad stripping,
operates identically in loopback as in normal operation.
Loopback mode can be performed with any frame size.
Runt Packet Accept is internally enabled (RPA bit in
CSR124 is not affected) when any loopback mode is in-
voked. This is to be backwards compatible to the
C-LANCE (Am79C90) software.
Since the PCnet-PCI II controller has two FCS genera-
tors there are no more restrictions on FCS generation or
checking or on testing multicast address detection as
they exist in the half-duplex PCnet family devices and in
the C-LANCE and ILACC. On receive the PCnet-PCI II
controller now provides true FCS status. The descriptor
for a frame with an FCS error will have the FCS bit
(RMD1, bit 27) set to ONE. The FCS generator on the
transmit side can still be disabled by setting DXMTFCS
(CSR15, bit 3) to ONE.
In internal loopback operation the PCnet-PCI II control-
ler provides a special mode to test the collision logic.
When FCOLL (CSR15, bit 4) is set to ONE, a collision is
forced during every transmission attempt. This will re-
sult in a Retry error.
Magic Packet Mode
Magic Packet mode is enabled by performing three
steps. First, the PCnet-PCI II controller must be put into
suspend mode (see description of CSR5, bit 0), allowing
any current network activity to finish. Next, MPMODE
(CSR5, bit 1) must be set to ONE if it has not been set
already. Finally, either SLEEP must be asserted (hard-
ware control) or MPEN (CSR5, bit 2) must be set to ONE
(software control).
In Magic Packet mode, the PCnet-PCI II controller re-
mains fully powered-up (all VDD and VDDB pins must re-
main at their supply levels). The device will not generate
any bus master transfers. No transmit operations will be
initiated on the network. The device will continue to re-
ceive frames from the network, but all frames will be
automatically flushed from the receive FIFO. Slave ac-
cesses to the PCnet-PCI II controller are still possible.
Magic Packet mode can be disabled at any time by
deasserting SLEEP or clearing MPEN.
A Magic Packet frame is a frame that is addressed to the
PCnet-PCI II controller and contains a data sequence in
its data field made up of sixteen consecutive physical
addresses (PADR[47:0]). The PCnet-PCI II controller
will search incoming frames until it finds a Magic Packet
frame. The device starts scanning for the sequence af-
ter processing the Length field of the frame. The data se-

quence can begin anywhere in the data field of the
frame, but must be detected before the PCnet-PCI II
controller reaches the frame’s FCS field. The PCnet-
PCI II controller is designed such that it does not need
the synchronization sequence (6 bytes of all ONEs
(“FFFFFFFFFFFFh”) at the beginning of the data field),
to correctly recognize the proper data sequence. How-
ever, any deviation of the incoming frame’s Magic Pack-
et data sequence from the required physical address
sequence, even by a single bit, will prevent the detection
of that frame as a Magic Packet frame.
The PCnet-PCI II controller supports two different
modes of address detection for a Magic Packet frame. If
MPPLBA (CSR5, bit 5) is at its default value of ZERO,
the PCnet-PCI II controller will only detect a Magic
Packet frame if the destination address of the frame
matches the content of the physical address register
(PADR). If MPPLBA is set to ONE, the destination ad-
dress of the Magic Packet frame can be unicast, multi-
cast, or broadcast. Note that the setting of MPPLBA
only effects the address detection of the Magic Packet
frame. The Magic Packet data sequence must be made
up
(PADR[47:0]), even if the packet contains a valid desti-
nation address that is not the physical address.
When the PCnet-PCI II controller detects a Magic Pack-
et frame, it sets MPINT (CSR5, bit 4) to ONE. If INEA
(CSR0, bit 6) and MPINTE (CSR5, bit 3) are set to ONE,
INTA will be asserted. The interrupt signal can be used
wake up the system. As an alternative, one of the four
LED pins can be programmed to indicated that a Magic
Packet frame has been received. MPSE (BCR4–7, bit 9)
must be set to ONE to enable that function. Note that the
polarity of the LED pin can be programmed to be active
High by setting LEDPOL (BCR4–7, bit 14) to ONE.
Once a Magic Packet frame is detected, the PCnet-PCI
II controller will discard the frame internally, but will not
resume normal transmit and receive operations until
SLEEP is deasserted or MPEN is cleared, disabling
Magic Packet mode. Once either of these events has
occurred indicating that the system has detected the as-
sertion of INTA or an LED pin and is now “awake”, the
controller will continue polling the receive and transmit
descriptor rings where it left off. Reinitialization should
not be performed.
If Magic Packet mode is disabled by the deassertion of
SLEEP, then in order to immediately reenable Magic
Packet mode, the SLEEP pin must remain deasserted
for at least 200 ns before it is reasserted. If Magic Packet
mode is disabled by clearing MPEN, then it may be im-
mediately reenabled by setting MPEN back to ONE.
The bus interface clock (CLK) must continue running if
INTA is used to indicate the detection of a magic packet.
