Description
15
NP
0, RO/P
NEXT PAGE INDICATION:
0 = Not Next Page able
1 = Next Page able
The DP83840A is not Next Page capable so this bit is permanently set
to 0.
14
ACK
0, RO/P
ACKNOWLEDGE:
1 = Reception of Link Partner ability data acknowledged
0 = Not acknowledged
The DP83840A's Auto-Negotiation state machine will automatically
control this bit in the outgoing FLP bursts, setting it at the appropriate
time during the Auto-Negotiation process. Software should not attempt
to write to this bit.
13

0, RW
REMOTE FAULT:
1 = Advertises that this device has detected a Remote Fault
0 = No Remote Fault detected

RESERVED: Write as 0, read as don't care.
100BASE-T4 SUPPORT:
0, RO/P
1 =100BASE-T4 is supported by the local device
0 =100BASE-T4 not supported
The DP83840A does not support 100BASE-T4 so this bit is permanently
set to 0.
