Data Register
The data register is an 8-bit read only register that provides a mechanism for the 82559ER to report 
state dependent maximum power consumption and heat dissipation. The value reported in this 
register depends on the value written to the Data Select field in the PMCSR register. The power 
measurements defined in this register have a dynamic range of 0 to 2.55 W with 0.01 W resolution 
according to the Data Scale. The value in this register is hard coded in the silicon. The structure of 
the data register is presented below.
