AIC-6915 Ethernet LAN Controller Programmer's Manual Features General s Supports four general purpose I/Os that can be programmed separately as inputs, outputs, open-drain outputs or, interrupt inputs s Interface to an external, 8-bit Boot ROM with a maximum size of 256-KByte s Supports dynamic system bus (PCI) clock where the network can continue to operate at any clock frequency s Internal loopback on all network ports for testing purposes s IEEE 1149.1 compliant JTAG Boundary Scan Test Access port Ethernet s IEEE 802.3 compliant 10/100 MII that supports Category 3 UTP, Category 5 UTP, Type 1 STP and Fiber cables s IEEE 802.3.x compliant Flow Control mechanism s Supports Cisco proprietary VLAN ISL frame format s Supports IEEE 802.1q (VLAN) frame format s Supports PCI and OnNow power management s Supports OnNow wakeup function s Calculates TCP/IP checksum in transmit mode s Checks TCP/IP checksum in receive mode s Supports full-duplex operation on all ports (MII, 10/100 Twisted Pair) s Provides a variety of address filtering modes: - Promiscuous - 16 full 48-bit addresses - 512-bit hash table for multicast address filtering s Time stamp information of every frame received DMA s Two transmit DMA queues to prioritize network traffic s Enhanced interrupt mechanism increases performance and reduces CPU utilization: - Transmit DMA Complete (Early Transmit) - Early receive - Transmit/Receive buffer under/over flow error handling. No software intervention required s DMA channel arbitration eliminates overrun/underrun of First-In-First-Out (FIFO) buffers 1-2
