DP83816: Compliance test (Ask Again)

Part Number: DP83816
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: DP83847,

Hello,

I checked the register of the DP83847 and application note.

I understood how to configure for the compliance testing roughly.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

// software reset (clear register)

// program DUT to 100Base-TX mode

// program DUT to Pseudo Random bit sequence output

// digital reset (doesn't clear register)

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I checked the register of the DP83816, have some questions.

address 0000h bit 8 : Reset

address 0080h bit 15:Reset

Q1) Which should I use above two address for software reset?

address 0080h bit 13 : 100Mb/s

address 0080h bit 8   : Full duplex operate

address 00E4h bit 11 : PSR15

address 00E4h bit 9   : BIST start

Q2) Does it need digital reset? If the answer 'yes', which address should I configure?

Q3) Although the DP83816 have PCI Media Access Control,

       does it need to program DUT to Forced MDI or MDIX mode?

Best Regards,
