Initialization Block
Note: When SSIZE32 (BCR20, bit 8) is set to 0, the
software structures are defined to be 16 bits wide. The
base address of the initialization block must be aligned
to a word boundary, i.e., CSR1, bit 0 must be cleared to
When SSIZE32 (BCR20, bit 8) is set to 0, the software
structures are defined to be 16 bits wide, and the RLEN
and TLEN fields in the initialization block are each three
bits wide. The values in these fields determine the num-
ber of transmit and receive Descriptor Ring Entries

0. When SSIZE32 is set to 0, the initialization block
looks like Table 96.
Note: The Am79C976 controller performs DWord ac-
cesses to read the initialization block. This statement is
always true, regardless of the setting of the SSIZE32
bit.
When SSIZE32 (BCR20, bit 8) is set to 1, the software
structures are defined to be 32 bits wide. The base ad-
dress of the initialization block must be aligned to a
DWord boundary, i.e., CSR1, bits 1 and 0 must be
cleared to 0. When SSIZE32 is set to 1, the initialization
block looks like Table 97.
(DRE) which are used in the descriptor rings. Their
meaning is shown in Table 98. If a value other than those
listed in Table 98 is desired, CSR76 and CSR78 can be
written after initialization is complete.
When SSIZE32 (BCR20, bit 8) is set to 1, the software
structures are defined to be 32 bits wide, and the RLEN
