instead of absolute bit times. The

match due to delays in the part

gramming a larger number of bit
times,
Am79C975 MAC will become
less aggressive on the network
and may defer more often than
normal. The performance of the
Am79C973/Am79C975 controller
may decrease as the IPG value is
increased from the default value.

Read/Write is accessible only
when either the STOP bit or the
SPND bit is set. IPG is set to 60h
(96 Bit times) by H_RESET or
S_RESET and is not affected by
STOP.

The
the
Bus Configuration Registers
The Bus Configuration Registers (BCR) are used to
program the configuration of the bus interface and oth-
er special features of the Am79C973/Am79C975 con-
troller that are not related to the IEEE 8802-3 MAC
functions. The BCRs are accessed by first setting the
appropriate RAP value and then by performing a slave
access to the BDP. See Table 29.
All BCR registers are 16 bits in width in Word I/O mode
(DWIO = 0, BCR18, bit 7) and 32 bits in width in DWord
I/O mode (DWIO = 1). The upper 16 bits of all BCR reg-
isters is undefined when in DWord I/O mode. These
bits should be written as zeros and should be treated
as undefined when read. The default value given for
any BCR is the value in the register after H_RESET.
Some of these values may be changed shortly after
H_RESET when the contents of the external EEPROM
is automatically read in. None of the BCR register val-
ues are affected by the assertion of the STOP bit or
S_RESET.
Note that several registers have no default value.
BCR0, BCR1, BCR3, BCR8, BCR10-17, and BCR21
are reserved and have undefined values. BCR2 and
BCR34 are not observable without first being pro-
grammed through the EEPROM read operation or a
user register write operation.
BCR0, BCR1, BCR16, BCR17, and BCR21 are regis-
ters that are used by other devices in the PCnet family.
Writing to these registers have no effect on the opera-
tion of the Am79C973/Am79C975 controller.
Writes to those registers marked as “Reserved” will
have no effect. Reads from these locations will produce
undefined values.
values do not match due to de-
lays in the part used to make up
the final IPG.
Changes should be added or
subtracted from the provided hex
value on a one-for-one basis.
Due to changes in synchroniza-
tion delays internally through dif-
ferent network ports, the IFS1
can be off by as much as +12 bit
times.
Read/Write is accessible only
when either the STOP bit or the
SPND bit is set. IFS1 is set to 3ch
(60 bit times) by H_RESET or
S_RESET and is not affected by
STOP.
