MR1: Status Register
BIT
SYMBOL TYPE DEFAULT DESCRIPTION
1.9
100T2_H
R
0
100BASE-T2 Half Duplex Ability:
Reads ‘0’ to indicate the
78Q2120C does not support 100Base-T2 full duplex mode.
1.8
EXTS
R
0
Extended Status Information Availability: Reads ‘0’ to indicate the
78Q2120C does not support Extended Status information on MR15.

1.6
MFPS
R
0
Management Frame Preamble Suppression Support:
A “0”
indicates that the 78Q2120C can read management frames with a
preamble.
1.5
ANEGC
R
0
Auto-Negotiation Complete: A logic one indicates that the Auto-
Negotiation process has been completed, and that the contents of
registers MR4,5,6 are valid.
1.4
RFAULT
RC
0
Remote Fault: A logic one indicates that a remote fault condition
has been detected and remains set until it is cleared. This bit can
only be cleared by reading this register (MR1) via the management
interface.
1.3
ANEGA
R
(1)
Auto-Negotiation Ability: When set, this bit indicates the device’s
ability to perform Auto-Negotiation.
The value of this bit is
determined by the ANEGEN bit (MR0.12).
1.2
LINK
R
0
Link Status:
A logic one indicates that a valid link has been
established. If the link status should transition from an OK status to
a NOT-OK status, this bit will become cleared and remains cleared
until it is read.
1.1
JAB
RC
0
Jabber Detect: In 10Base-T mode, this bit is set during a jabber
event. After a jabber event, the bit remains set until cleared by a
read operation.
1.0
EXTD
R
1
Extended Capability: Reads ’1’ to indicate the 78Q2120C provides
an extended register set (MR2 and beyond).
