DP83TC814S-Q1: Does TI have the monitor software or method for Ethernet?

Part Number: DP83TC814S-Q1

Tool/software:

Hello TI Team,

We need to monitor the communication as below Items:

Communication speed

Frame interval

Frame length

Payload pattern

Protocol

Link partner MAC address

Link partner IP address

Link partner Transmit frame

Master/Slave setting

Link down

Link up

Notification Method

Frames Sent

Frames Received

Bit Error Detection

Frame Error Count

Consecutive Frame Error Count

Frame Error Rate

Min. Frame Error Interval

Frame Error Latch

Notification Method

Does TI have the monitor software or method?

Best Regards!

  • Hi Jingkun,

    You refer to our register map in section 8.6 of the datasheet for what values can be monitored in our registers. Our 814 only supports a single communication speed (100Mbps).

    Master/slave setting can be  detected in register 0x1834, link up/down is in register 0x1. Packet errors (CRC errors) can be detected in registers 0x63B and 0x63E.

    I'm not really sure what is meant by protocol.

    The rest of the variables are monitored on the application/processor level. We do not have a method for this, the Ethernet team focuses only on the configuration of the Ethernet chip.

    Best regards,

    Melissa
