Register Descriptions Table 7-40. TimersControl Register (Continued) Reset Bit(s) rw value Description/Function 12 r/w 0 RxHiPrBypass: If this bit is set, bypass the interrupt masking timer when generating RxDoneInt after DMA-transferring the completion descriptor of a high-priority frame. 11 r/w 0 Timer10X: Enables the software to easily scale the TimerClock period by a factor of 10 to match a 10 Mbits/sec or 100 Mbits/sec environment. When this bit is set, TXCLK is divided by 20 to create TIMERCLOCK, otherwise it is divided by 2. The division by 20 is used when the AIC-6915 operates at line speed of 100 Mbits/Sec. 10:9 r/w 0 SmallRxFrame: Defines the size of a received Ethernet frame that is considered 'small'. The AIC-6915 interrupts 'small' frames earlier than normal frames if SmallFrameBypass bit is set. '00' - 'Small' frame when less or equal to 64 bytes '01' - 'Small' frame when less or equal to 128 bytes '10' -'Small' frame when less or equal to 256 bytes '11' - 'Small' frame when less or equal to 512 bytes 8 r/w 0 SmallFrameBypass: When this bit is set, AND the receive interrupt masking timer is active, and the interrupt status bit RXDONEINT is set as a result of receiving and completing the DMA transfer of a 'small' frame, then RXDONEINT by-passes the masking timer and asserts the external PCI interrupt line. When SMALLFRAMEBYPASS is reset, the AIC-6915 treats all received frames the same. It does not assert the external interrupt line if the interrupt masking timer is active. 7 r 0 Reserved: Always read as '0'. 6:5 r/w 0 IntMaskMode: Controls the operation of the interrupt masking timer. '00' - The timer is not loaded. '01' - When this value is written, the timer is loaded with the number defined by IntMaskPeriod. The timer is decremented by one every rising edge of TIMERCLOCK. During a maskingperiod, active (asserted) Transmit and Receive Interrupts are masked and do not cause an assertion of an interrupt on the PCI bus. When the timer reaches its terminal count (0) the interrupts are enabled. '10' - Same as '01', except that new masking period starts automatically when the software driver clears both TXDONEINT and RXDONEINT. '11' - Same as '01', except that new masking period starts automatically when first asserting a new interrupt. In this case the masking period is extended by the time interval from the last time the software cleared the interrupt until a new one is asserted. 7-29

r/w

RxHiPrBypass:

If this bit is set, bypass the interrupt masking timer

when generating

RxDoneInt

after DMA-transferring the

completion descriptor of a high-priority frame.

r/w

Timer10X:

Enables the software to easily scale the

TimerClock

period by a factor of 10 to match a 10 Mbits/sec or 100 Mbits/sec

environment. When this bit is set,

is divided by 20 to create

IMER

LOCK

, otherwise it is divided by 2. The division by 20 is used

when the AIC-6915 operates at line speed of 100 Mbits/Sec.

10:9

r/w

SmallRxFrame:

Defines the size of a received Ethernet frame that is

considered ‘small’. The AIC-6915 interrupts ‘small’ frames earlier

than normal frames if

SmallFrameBypass

bit is set.

‘

’ - ‘Small’ frame when less or equal to 64 bytes

‘

’ - ‘Small’ frame when less or equal to 128 bytes

‘

’ -‘Small’ frame when less or equal to 256 bytes

‘

’ - ‘Small’ frame when less or equal to 512 bytes

r/w

SmallFrameBypass:

When this bit is set, AND the receive interrupt

masking timer is active, and the interrupt status bit

ONE

set as a result of receiving and completing the DMA transfer of a

‘small’ frame, then

ONE

by-passes the masking timer and

asserts the external PCI interrupt line. When

MALL

RAME

YPASS

reset, the AIC-6915 treats all received frames the same. It does not

assert the external interrupt line if the interrupt masking timer is

active.

Reserved: Always read as ‘0’.

6:5

r/w

IntMaskMode:

Controls the operation of the interrupt masking

timer.

‘00’ -

The timer is not loaded.

‘01’ -

When this value is written, the timer is loaded with the

number defined by

IntMaskPeriod

. The timer is decremented

by one every rising edge of

IMER

LOCK

. During a masking-

period, active (asserted)

Transmit and Receive Interrupts

are

masked and do not cause an assertion of an interrupt on the

PCI bus. When the timer reaches its terminal count (0) the

interrupts are enabled.

‘10’ -

Same as ‘01’, except that new masking period starts

automatically

when the software driver clears both

ONE

and

ONE

‘11’ -

Same as ‘01’, except that new masking period starts

automatically when first asserting a new interrupt. In this case

the masking period is extended by the time interval from the

last time the software cleared the interrupt until a new one is

asserted.
