4.21.1 Link Status Modes

The link status mode is configured by writing to the Link Status Configuration (LSCFG) field of the Link Status Control (LSCTL) register. The field selects the operating conditions which link status changes state.

When the conditions selected for link are met, then link will indicate true immediately. However, once the conditions for link are no longer met, a loss of link will not be indicated until after a false link timer has expired. This time defaults to 25 ms, but may be increased up to 1000 ms by configuring the Link Status Timer (LSTMR) field.
