DP83822IF: About TP_IDLE test pattern bits (yellow area above)

Part Number: DP83822IF


Hello,

My customer will test 10Base-Te TP_Idle with Compliance Test Register(0x0027)

According to datasheet, Compliance Test Register(0x0027) is following.

 

Table 46. 0x0027 Compliance Test Register (COMPT)

 Bit[4] in Register 0x0027 = 1, Enables 10Base-Te Test Patterns.

Bit[4] in Register 0x0428 = 1, Enables 100Base-TX Test Modes

Bits[3:0] select the 10Base-Te test pattern, as follows:

0000 = Single NLP

0001 = Single Pulse 1

0010 = Single Pulse 0

0011 = Repetitive 1

0100 = Repetitive 0

0101 = Preamble (repetitive ‘10’)

0110 = Single 1 followed by TP_IDLE

0111 = Single 0 followed by TP_IDLE

1000 = Repetitive ‘1001’ sequence

1001 = Random 10Base-Te data

1010 = TP_IDLE_00

1011 = TP_IDLE_01

1100 = TP_IDLE_10

1101 = TP_IDLE_11

 

(Question)

About TP_IDLE test pattern bits (Below)

0110 = Single 1 followed by TP_IDLE

0111 = Single 0 followed by TP_IDLE

1010 = TP_IDLE_00

1011 = TP_IDLE_01

1100 = TP_IDLE_10

1101 = TP_IDLE_11

(1) What is the difference between these bit (test pattern )settings?

(2) Which bit(test pattern ) should they use for TP_Idle test?
