Base Address ............... IoBaseAddress register value
Address Offset .............. 0x15
Default .......................... 0x04
Width ............................ 8 bits
RxDMAUrgentThresh sets a threshold at which the receive DMA logic will make a urgent bus master request. A
urgent receive DMA request will have priority over all other requests on the IP100. The urgent bus request is
made when the free space in the receive FIFO falls below the value in RxDMAUrgentThresh. A receive DMA
urgent request is not subject to the RxDMABurstThresh constraint. When the receive FIFO is close to overrun,
burst efficiency is sacrificed in favor of requesting the bus as quickly as possible. The value in
RxDMAUrgentThresh represents free space in the receive FIFO in terms of 32-byte portions.

StationAddress is used to define the individual destination address that the IP100 will respond to when receiving
frames. Network addresses are generally specified in the form of 01:23:45:67:89:ab, where the bytes are received
left to right, and the bits within each byte are received right to left (Isb to msb). The actual transmitted and received
bits are in the order of 10000000 11000100 10100010 11100110 10010001 11010101.

StationAddressWord0
R/W
The least significant word of the station address, corresponding to
address 0x54.
31..16 StationAddressWord1
R/W
The second least significant word of the station address, corresponding
to address 0x56.
47..32 StationAddressWord2
R/W
The most significant word of the station address, corresponding to
address 0x58.
The address comparison logic will compare the first 16 received destination address bits against
StationAddressWord0, the second 16 received destination address bits against StationAddressWord1, and the
third 16 received destination address bits against StationAddressWord2. The value set in StationAddress is not
inserted into the source address field of frames transmitted by the IP100. The source address field for every
frame must be specified by the host system as part of the frame data contents.
