DESCRIPTION
Node power class. This field indicates this node’s power consumption and source characteristics and is
replicated in the pwr field (bits 21–23) of the self-ID packet. This field is reset to the state specified by
the PC0–PC2 input terminals upon hardware reset, and is unaffected by a bus reset. See Table 18.
Resuming port interrupt enable. This bit, if set to 1, enables the port event interrupt (PEI) bit to be set
whenever resume operations begin on any port. This bit is reset to 0 by hardware reset and is
unaffected by bus reset.
Initiate short arbitrated bus reset. This bit, if set to 1, instructs the PHY to initiate a short (1.3 µs)
arbitrated bus reset at the next opportunity. This bit is reset to 0 by a bus reset.
NOTE: Legacy IEEE Std 1394–1995 compliant PHYs are not capable of performing short bus resets.
Therefore, initiation of a short bus reset in a network that contains such a legacy device results in a long
bus reset being performed.
Configuration time-out interrupt. This bit is set to 1 when the arbitration controller times-out during
tree-ID start, and may indicate that the bus is configured in a loop. This bit is reset to 0 by hardware
reset, or by writing a 1 to this register bit.
NOTE: If the network is configured in a loop, only those nodes which are part of the loop should
generate a configuration time out interrupt. All other nodes should instead time out waiting for the
tree-ID and/or self-ID process to complete and then generate a state time-out interrupt and bus-reset.
Cable-power-status interrupt. This bit is set to 1 whenever the CPS input transitions from high to low
indicating that cable power may be too low for reliable operation. This bit is reset to 0 by hardware
reset, or by writing a 1 to this register bit.
State time-out interrupt. This bit indicates that a state time-out has occurred. This bit is reset to 0 by
hardware reset, or by writing a 1 to this register bit.
Port event interrupt. This bit is set to 1 on any change in the connected, bias, disabled, or fault bits for
any port for which the port interrupt enable (PIE) bit is set. Additionally, if the resuming port interrupt
enable (RPIE) bit is set, the PEI bit is set to 1 at the start of resume operations on any port. This bit is
reset to 0 by hardware reset, or by writing a 1 to this register bit.
Enable arbitration acceleration. This bit enables the PHY to perform the various arbitration acceleration
enhancements defined in P1394a (ACK-accelerated arbitration, asynchronous fly-by concatenation,
and isochronous fly-by concatenation). This bit is reset to 0 by hardware reset and is unaffected by bus
reset.
NOTE: The EAA bit should be set only if the attached LLC is P1394a compliant. If the LLC is not
P1394a compliant, use of the arbitration acceleration enhancements can interfere with isochronous
traffic by excessively delaying the transmission of cycle-start packets.
Enable multispeed concatenated packets. This bit enables the PHY to transmit concatenated packets of
differing speeds in accordance with the protocols defined in P1394a. This bit is reset to 0 by hardware
reset and is unaffected by bus reset.
NOTE: The use of multispeed concatenation is completely compatible with networks containing legacy
IEEE Std 1394–1995 PHYs. However, use of multispeed concatenation requires that the attached LLC
be P1394a compliant.
Page_Select. This field selects the register page to use when accessing register addresses 8 through
15. This field is reset to 0 by a hardware reset and is unaffected by bus-reset.
Port_Select. This field selects the port when accessing per-port status or control (e.g., when one of the
port status/control registers is accessed in page 0). Ports are numbered starting at 0. This field is reset
to 0 by hardware reset and is unaffected by bus reset.
