- I noticed some people asking about jumper settings for the WD8003 ethernet
- card and in looking through my stuff, came across the following information
- regarding the WD8003E and WD8003EBT. I hope this is helpful to someone out
- there.

- == EtherCard PLUS (WD8003E) ==
- And
- == EtherCard PLUS With Boot ROM Socket (WD8003EBT) ==

- JUMPER PIN FUNCTION SELECTED
- BLOCK NUMBERS NAME WHEN JUMPER IS INSTALLED
- ------ -------- ---- ----------------------------
- W1 1-2 Zero Select zero wait states for optimized
- Wait operation in a 6MHz AT. (Factory
- setting is jumper removed, which
- ensures correct operation in faster
- AT bus systems.) This jumper is
- ignored in XT bus systems.
-
- W1 I/O Base Selects the I/O Base Address
- Address (Up to 3 jumpers)
-
- 3-4*,5-6*,9-10* 280 -- the factory setting
- 5-6, 9-10 2A0
- 3-4, 9-10 2C0
- 9-10 2E0
- 3-4, 5-6, 7-8 300
- 5-6, 7-8 320
- 3-4, 7-8 340
-
- W2 1-2 IRQ7 Interrupt request level.
- 3-4 IRQ6 Only one jumper may be installed at a
- 5-6 IRQ5 time.
- 7-8 IRQ4
- 9-10* IRQ3 (Factory setting is IRQ3)
- 11-12 IRQ2
-
- W3 1-2* AUI- Ethernet type: pins all jumpered to
- 3-4* BNC use J1 BNC connector for this Ethernet
- 5-6* cable (* - the factory setting).
- 7-8* Jumpers all removed to use J2 AUI
- 9-10* connector (thick Ethernet cable).
- 11-12*
-
- W4 1-2 Ethernet Jumper removed for thin Ethernet and
- Version IEEE 802.3/Version 2 thick Ethernet
- (the factory setting); jumper in-
- stalled for thick Ethernet Version 1.
-
- W5 1-2* Segment Selects thin Ethernet segment length:
- Length jumpered for IEEE 802.3 standard 185m
- length (*-the factory setting); jumper
- removed for 300m extended length.

-
- I don't know if there is a difference between the WD8003 and the WD8003E,
- and if this information is helpful, I can finally feel that I have made a
- contribution to the Linux effort (small though it is). Later.
