It complies with all applicable requirements of IEEE 802.3. The LXT972A can directly drive either a 100BASE-TX line (up to 140 meters) or a 10BASE-T line (up to 185 meters). 3.1.1 Comprehensive Functionality The LXT972A provides a standard Media Independent Interface (MII) for 10/100 MACs. The LXT972A performs all functions of the Physical Coding Sublayer (PCS) and Physical Media Attachment (PMA) sublayer as defined in the IEEE 802.3 100BASE-X standard. This device also performs all functions of the Physical Media Dependent (PMD) sublayer for 100BASE-TX connections. On power-up, the LXT972A reads its configuration pins to check for forced operation settings. If not configured for forced operation, it uses auto-negotiation/parallel detection to automatically determine line operating conditions. If the PHY device on the other side of the link supports autonegotiation, the LXT972A auto-negotiates with it using Fast Link Pulse (FLP) Bursts. If the PHY partner does not support auto-negotiation, the LXT972A automatically detects the presence of either link pulses (10Mbps PHY) or Idle symbols (100Mbps PHY) and set its operating conditions accordingly. The LXT972A provides half-duplex and full-duplex operation at 100Mbps and 10Mbps. 3.1.2 OSPTM Architecture Intel's LXT972A incorporates high-efficiency Optimal Signal ProcessingTM design techniques, combining the best properties of digital and analog signal processing to produce a truly optimal device. The receiver utilizes decision feedback equalization to increase noise and cross-talk immunity by as much as 3 dB over an ideal all-analog equalizer. Using OSP mixed-signal processing techniques in the receive equalizer avoids the quantization noise and calculation truncation errors found in traditional DSP-based receivers (typically complex DSP engines with A/D converters). This results in improved receiver noise and cross-talk performance. The OSP signal processing scheme also requires substantially less computational logic than traditional DSP-based designs. This lowers power consumption and also reduces the logic switching noise generated by DSP engines. This logic switching noise can be a considerable source of EMI generated on the device's power supplies. The OSP-based LXT972A provides improved data recovery, EMI performance and low power consumption. 16 Datasheet 3.3V Dual-Speed Fast Ethernet Transceiver Datasheet -- LXT972A 3.2 Network Media / Protocol Support The LXT972A supports both 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX Ethernet over twisted-pair. 3.2.1 10/100 Network Interface The network interface port consists of two differential signal pairs. Refer to Table 3 for specific pin assignments. The LXT972A output drivers generate either 100BASE-TX or 10BASE-T. When not transmitting data, the LXT972A generates 802.3-compliant link pulses or idle code. Input signals are decoded either as a 100BASE-TX or 10BASE-T input, depending on the mode selected. Auto-negotiation/ parallel detection or manual control is used to determine the speed of this interface. 3.2.1.1 Twisted-Pair Interface The LXT972A supports either 100BASE-TX or 10BASE-T connections over 100, Category 5, Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) cable. When operating at 100Mbps, the LXT972A continuously transmits and receives MLT3 symbols. When not transmitting data, the LXT972A generates "IDLE" symbols. During 10Mbps operation, Manchester-encoded data is exchanged. When no data is being exchanged, the line is left in an idle state. Link pulses are transmitted periodically to keep the link up. Only a transformer, RJ-45 connector, load resistor, and bypass capacitors are required to complete this interface. On the transmit side, the LXT972A has an active internal termination and does not require external termination resistors. Intel's patented waveshaping technology shapes the outgoing signal to help reduce the need for external EMI filters. Four slew rate settings (refer to Table 4 on page 14) allow the designer to match the output waveform to the magnetic characteristics. On the receive side, the internal impedance is high enough that it has no practical effect on the external termination circuit. 3.2.1.2 Fault Detection and Reporting The LXT972A supports one fault detection and reporting mechanism. "Remote Fault" refers to a MAC-to-MAC communication function that is essentially transparent to PHY layer devices. It is used only during Auto-Negotiation, and therefore is applicable only to twisted-pair links. "Far-End Fault", on the other hand, is an optional PMA-layer function that may be embedded within PHY devices. The LXT972A supports only the Remote Fault Function, explained in the paragraph that follows. Remote Fault Bit 4.13 in the Auto-Negotiation Advertisement Register is reserved for Remote Fault indications. It is typically used when re-starting the auto-negotiation sequence to indicate to the link partner that the link is down because the advertising device detected a fault. Datasheet 17 LXT972A -- 3.3V Dual-Speed Fast Ethernet Transceiver Datasheet When the LXT972A receives a Remote Fault indication from its partner during auto-negotiation it: * sets bit 5.13 in the Link Partner Base Page Ability Register, and * sets the Remote Fault bit 1.4 in the MII Status Register to pass this information to the local controller. 3.2.2 MII Data Interface The LXT972A supports a standard Media Independent Interface (MII). The MII consists of a data interface and a management interface. The MII Data Interface passes data between the LXT972A and a Media Access Controller (MAC). Separate parallel buses are provided for transmit and receive. This interface operates at either 10Mbps or 100Mbps. The speed is set automatically, once the operating conditions of the network link have been determined. Refer to "MII Operation" on page 25 for additional details. 3.2.3 Configuration Management Interface The LXT972A provides both an MDIO interface and a Hardware Control Interface for device configuration and management. 3.2.3.1 MDIO Management Interface The LXT972A supports the IEEE 802.3 MII Management Interface also known as the Management Data Input/Output (MDIO) Interface. This interface allows upper-layer devices to monitor and control the state of the LXT972A. The MDIO interface consists of a physical connection, a specific protocol that runs across the connection, and an internal set of addressable registers. Some registers are required and their functions are defined by the IEEE 802.3 standard. The LXT972A also supports additional registers for expanded functionality. The LXT972A supports multiple internal registers, each of which is 16 bits wide. Specific register bits are referenced using an "X.Y" notation, where X is the register number (0-31) and Y is the bit number (0-15). The physical interface consists of a data line (MDIO) and clock line (MDC). Operation of this interface is controlled by the MDDIS input pin. When MDDIS is High, the MDIO read and write operations are disabled and the Hardware Control Interface provides primary configuration control. When MDDIS is Low, the MDIO port is enabled for both read and write operations and the Hardware Control Interface is not used. MDIO Addressing The protocol allows one controller to communicate between two LXT972A chips. Pin ADDR0 is set high or low to determine the chip address. 18 Datasheet 3.3V Dual-Speed Fast Ethernet Transceiver Datasheet -- LXT972A MDIO Frame Structure The physical interface consists of a data line (MDIO) and clock line (MDC). The frame structure is shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4 (read and write). MDIO Interface timing is shown in Table 32 on page 53. Figure 3.

Interrupt logic is shown in Figure 5. The LXT972A also provides two dedicated interrupt registers. Register 18 provides interrupt enable and mask functions and Register 19 provides interrupt status. Setting bit 18.1 = 1, enables the device to request interrupt via the MDINT pin. An active Low on this pin indicates a status change on the LXT972A. Interrupts may be caused by four conditions: * * * * 3.2.3.3 Auto-negotiation complete Speed status change Duplex status change Link status change Hardware Control Interface The LXT972A provides a Hardware Control Interface for applications where the MDIO is not desired. The Hardware Control Interface uses the three LED driver pins to set device configuration. Refer to Section 3.4.5, "Hardware Configuration Settings" on page 23 for additional details.

OR NAND Interrupt Pin (MDINT) Per Event Force Interrupt Interrupt Enable 1. Interrupt (Event) Status Register is cleared on read. 3.3 Operating Requirements 3.3.1 Power Requirements The LXT972A requires three power supply inputs (VCCD, VCCA, and VCCIO). The digital and analog circuits require 3.3V supplies (VCCD and VCCA). These inputs may be supplied from a single source. Each supply input must be decoupled to ground. An additional supply may be used for the MII (VCCIO). The supply may be either +2.5V or +3.3V. Also, the inputs on the MII interface are tolerant to 5V signals from the controller on the other side of the MII interface. Refer to Table 19 on page 45 for MII I/O characteristics. As a matter of good practice, these supplies should be as clean as possible. 3.3.2 Clock Requirements 3.3.2.1 External Crystal/Oscillator The LXT972A requires a reference clock input that is used to generate transmit signals and recover receive signals. It may be provided by either of two methods: by connecting a crystal across the oscillator pins (XI and XO), or by connecting an external clock source to pin XI. The connection of a clock source to the XI pin requires the XO pin to be left open. A crystal-based clock is recommended over a derived clock (i.e., PLL-based) to minimize transmit jitter. Refer to the LXT971A/972A Design and Layout Guide for a list of recommended clock sources. A crystal is typically used in NIC applications. An external 25 MHz clock source, rather than a crystal, is frequently used in switch applications. Refer to Table 20 on page 45 for clock timing requirements 3.3.2.2 MDIO Clock The MII management channel (MDIO) also requires an external clock. The managed data clock (MDC) speed is a maximum of 8 MHz. Refer to Table 32 on page 53 for details. 20 Datasheet 3.3V Dual-Speed Fast Ethernet Transceiver Datasheet -- LXT972A 3.4 Initialization When the LXT972A is first powered on, reset, or encounters a link failure state, it checks the MDIO register configuration bits to determine the line speed and operating conditions to use for the network link. The configuration bits may be set by the Hardware Control or MDIO interface as shown in Figure 6. 3.4.1 MDIO Control Mode In the MDIO Control mode, the LXT972A reads the Hardware Control Interface pins to set the initial (default) values of the MDIO registers. Once the initial values are set, bit control reverts to the MDIO interface. 3.4.2 Hardware Control Mode In the Hardware Control Mode, LXT972A disables direct write operations to the MDIO registers via the MDIO Interface. On power-up or hardware reset the LXT972A reads the Hardware Control Interface pins and sets the MDIO registers accordingly. The following modes are available using either Hardware Control or MDIO Control: * Force network link operation to: 100TX, Full-Duplex. 100TX, Half-Duplex. 10BASE-T, Full-Duplex. 10BASE-T, Half-Duplex. * Allow auto-negotiation / parallel-detection. When the network link is forced to a specific configuration, the LXT972A immediately begins operating the network interface as commanded. When auto-negotiation is enabled, the LXT972A begins the auto-negotiation / parallel-detection operation. Datasheet 21 LXT972A -- 3.3V Dual-Speed Fast Ethernet Transceiver Datasheet Figure 6.

When PWRDWN is High, the following conditions are true: * * * * 3.4.3.2 The LXT972A network port and clock are shut down. All outputs are tri-stated. All weak pad pull-up and pull-down resistors are disabled. The MDIO registers are not accessible. Software Power Down Software power-down control is provided by bit 0.11 in the Control Register (refer to Table 37 on page 58). During soft power-down, the following conditions are true: * The network port is shut down. * The MDIO registers remain accessible. 22 Datasheet 3.3V Dual-Speed Fast Ethernet Transceiver Datasheet -- LXT972A 3.4.4 Reset The LXT972A provides both hardware and software resets. Configuration control of AutoNegotiation, speed and duplex mode selection is handled differently for each. During a hardware reset, Auto-Negotiation and Speed are read in from pins (refer to Table 8 on page 24 for pin settings and to Table 37 on page 58 for register bit definitions). During a software reset (0.15 = 1), these bit settings are not re-read from the pins. They revert back to the values that were read in during the last hardware reset. Therefore, any changes to pin values made since the last hardware reset are not detected during a software reset. During a hardware reset, register information is unavailable for 1 ms after de-assertion of the reset. During a software reset (0.15 = 1) the registers are available for reading. The reset bit should be polled to see when the part has completed reset (0.15 = 0). 3.4.5 Hardware Configuration Settings The LXT972A provides a hardware option to set the initial device configuration. The hardware option uses the three LED driver pins. This provides three control bits, as listed in Table 8. The LED drivers can operate as either open-drain or open-source circuits as shown in Figure 7. . Figure 7. Hardware Configuration Settings 3.3V Configuration Bit = 1 LED/CFG Pin LED/CFG Pin Configuration Bit = 0 1. The LED/CFG pins automatically adjust their polarity upon powerup or reset.

Refer to Table 7 on page 15 for LED/CFG pin assignments. 3.5 Establishing Link See Figure 8 for an overview of link establishment. 3.5.1 Auto-Negotiation If not configured for forced operation, the LXT972A attempts to auto-negotiate with its link partner by sending Fast Link Pulse (FLP) bursts. Each burst consists of up to 33 link pulses spaced 62.5 s apart. Odd link pulses (clock pulses) are always present. Even link pulses (data pulses) may be present or absent to indicate a "1" or a "0". Each FLP burst exchanges 16 bits of data, which are referred to as a "link code word". All devices that support auto-negotiation must implement the "Base Page" defined by IEEE 802.3 (registers 4 and 5). LXT972A also supports the optional "Next Page" function as described in Table 44 and Table 45 (registers 7 and 8). 3.5.1.1 Base Page Exchange By exchanging Base Pages, the LXT972A and its link partner communicate their capabilities to each other. Both sides must receive at least three identical base pages for negotiation to continue. Each side identifies the highest common capabilities that both sides support and configures itself accordingly. 3.5.1.2 Next Page Exchange Additional information, above that required by base page exchange, is also sent via "Next Pages'. The LXT972A fully supports the IEEE 802.3ab method of negotiation via Next Page exchange. 24 Datasheet 3.3V Dual-Speed Fast Ethernet Transceiver Datasheet -- LXT972A 3.5.1.3 Controlling Auto-Negotiation When auto-negotiation is controlled by software, the following steps are recommended: * After power-up, power-down, or reset, the power-down recovery time, as specified in Table 34 on page 54, must be exhausted before proceeding. * Set the auto-negotiation advertisement register bits. * Enable auto-negotiation (set MDIO bit 0.12 = 1). 3.5.2 Parallel Detection For the parallel detection feature of auto-negotiation, the LXT972A also monitors for 10BASE-T Normal Link Pulses (NLP) and 100BASE-TX Idle symbols. If either is detected, the device automatically reverts to the corresponding operating mode. Parallel detection allows the LXT972A to communicate with devices that do not support auto-negotiation. Figure 8.

Listen for 10T Link Pulses NO MII Operation The LXT972A device implements the Media Independent Interface (MII) as defined in the IEEE 802.3 standard. Separate channels are provided for transmitting data from the MAC to the LXT972A (TXD), and for passing data received from the line (RXD) to the MAC. Each channel has its own clock, data bus, and control signals. Nine signals are used to pass received data to the MAC: RXD<3:0>, RX_CLK, RX_DV, RX_ER, COL, and CRS. Seven signals are used to transmit data from the MAC: TXD<3:0>, TX_CLK, TX_EN, and TX_ER. Datasheet 25 LXT972A -- 3.3V Dual-Speed Fast Ethernet Transceiver Datasheet The LXT972A supplies both clock signals as well as separate outputs for carrier sense and collision. Data transmission across the MII is normally implemented in 4-bit-wide nibbles. 3.6.1 MII Clocks The LXT972A is the master clock source for data transmission and supplies both MII clocks (RX_CLK and TX_CLK). It automatically sets the clock speeds to match link conditions. When the link is operating at 100Mbps, the clocks are set to 25 MHz. When the link is operating at 10Mbps, the clocks are set to 2.5 MHz. Figure 9 through Figure 11 show the clock cycles for each mode. The transmit data and control signals must always be synchronized to TX_CLK by the MAC. The LXT972A samples these signals on the rising edge of TX_CLK. 3.6.2 Transmit Enable The MAC must assert TX_EN the same time as the first nibble of preamble, and de-assert TX_EN after the last bit of the packet. 3.6.3 Receive Data Valid The LXT972A asserts RX_DV when it receives a valid packet. Timing changes depend on line operating speed: * For 100TX links, RX_DV is asserted from the first nibble of preamble to the last nibble of the data packet. * For 10BT links, the entire preamble is truncated. RX_DV is asserted with the first nibble of the Start of Frame Delimiter (SFD) "5D" and remains asserted until the end of the packet. 3.6.4 Carrier Sense Carrier sense (CRS) is an asynchronous output. It is always generated when a packet is received from the line and in half-duplex when a packet is transmitted. Carrier sense is not generated when a packet is transmitted and in full-duplex mode. Table 9 summarizes the conditions for assertion of carrier sense, collision, and data loopback signals. 3.6.5 Error Signals When LXT972A is in 100Mbps mode and receives an invalid symbol from the network, it asserts RX_ER and drives "1110" on the RXD pins. When the MAC asserts TX_ER, the LXT972A drives "H" symbols out on the TPOP/N pins. 3.6.6 Collision The LXT972A asserts its collision signal, asynchronously to any clock, whenever the line state is half-duplex and the transmitter and receiver are active at the same time. Table 9 summarizes the conditions for assertion of carrier sense, collision, and data loopback signals. 26 Datasheet 3.3V Dual-Speed Fast Ethernet Transceiver Datasheet -- LXT972A Figure 9. 10BASE-T Clocking 2.5 MHz during Auto-Negotiation and 10BASE-T Data & Idle TX_CLK (Sourced by LXT972) 2.5 MHz during Auto-Negotiation and 10BASE-T Data & Idle RX_CLK (Sourced by LXT972) Constant 25 MHz XI Figure 10. 100BASE-X Clocking 2.5 MHz during Auto-Negotiation 25 MHz once 100BASE-X Link Established 2.5 MHz during Auto-Negotiation 25 MHz once 100BASE-X Link Established TX_CLK (Sourced by LXT972) RX_CLK (Sourced by LXT972) Constant 25 MHz XI Figure 11.

Loopback paths are shown in Figure 12. 3.6.7.1 Operational Loopback Operational loopback is provided for 10Mbps half-duplex links when bit 16.8 = 0. Data transmitted by the MAC (TXData) is looped back on the receive side of the MII (RXData). Operational loopback is not provided for 100Mbps links, full-duplex links, or when 16.8 = 1. 3.6.7.2 Test Loopback A test loopback function is provided for diagnostic testing of the LXT972A. During test loopback, the twisted-pair interface is disabled. Data transmitted by the MAC is internally looped back by the LXT972A and returned to the MAC. Test loopback is available for both 100TX and 10T operation. Test loopback is enabled by setting bits as follows: * 0.14 = 1 * 0.8 = 1 (full-duplex) * 0.12 = 0 (disable auto-negotiation). Figure 12.

Figure 13 shows the structure of a standard frame packet. When the MAC is not actively transmitting data, the LXT972A sends out Idle symbols on the line. In 100TX mode, the LXT972A scrambles and transmits the data to the network using MLT-3 line code (Figure 14 on page 29). MLT-3 signals received from the network are descrambled, decoded, and sent across the MII to the MAC.

As soon as the LXT972A detects the start of preamble, it transmits a Start-of-Stream Delimiter (SSD, symbols J and K) to the network. It then encodes and transmits the rest of the packet, including the balance of the preamble, the SFD, packet data, and CRC. Once the packet ends, the LXT972A transmits the End-of Stream-Delimiter (ESD, symbols T and R) and then returns to transmitting Idle symbols. 4B/5B coding is shown in Table 10 on page 33. Figure 15 shows normal reception with no errors. When the LXT972A receives invalid symbols from the line, it asserts RX_ER as shown in Figure 16.

The LXT972A implements the Physical Coding Sublayer (PCS), Physical Medium Attachment (PMA), and Physical Medium Dependent (PMD) sublayers of the reference model defined by the IEEE 802.3u standard. The following paragraphs discuss LXT972A operation from the reference model point of view. 3.7.3.1 PCS Sublayer The Physical Coding Sublayer (PCS) provides the MII interface, as well as the 4B/5B encoding/ decoding function. For 100TX operation, the PCS layer provides IDLE symbols to the PMD-layer line driver as long as TX_EN is de-asserted. Datasheet 31 LXT972A -- 3.3V Dual-Speed Fast Ethernet Transceiver Datasheet Preamble Handling When the MAC asserts TX_EN, the PCS substitutes a /J/K symbol pair, also known as the Start-ofStream Delimiter (SSD), for the first two nibbles received across the MII. The PCS layer continues to encode the remaining MII data, following the coding in Table 10 on page 33, until TX_EN is deasserted. It then returns to supplying IDLE symbols to the line driver. In the receive direction, the PCS layer performs the opposite function, substituting two preamble nibbles for the SSD. Dribble Bits The LXT972A handles dribbles bits in all modes. If between one through four dribble bits are received, the nibble is passed across the MII, padded with 1s if necessary. If between five through seven dribble bits are received, the second nibble is not sent onto the MII bus. Figure 19.

Interpretation The /I/ (Idle) code group is sent continuously between frames. The /J/ and /K/ (SSD) code groups are always sent in pairs; /K/ follows /J/. The /T/ and /R/ (ESD) code groups are always sent in pairs; /R/ follows /T/. An /H/ (Error) code group is used to signal an error condition. Datasheet 33 LXT972A -- 3.3V Dual-Speed Fast Ethernet Transceiver Datasheet 3.7.3.2 PMA Sublayer Link In 100Mbps mode, the LXT972A establishes a link whenever the scrambler becomes locked and remains locked for approximately 50ms. Whenever the scrambler loses lock (receiving less than 12 consecutive idle symbols during a 2ms window), the link are taken down. This provides a very robust link, essentially filtering out any small noise hits that may otherwise disrupt the link. Furthermore, 100M idle patterns will not bring up a 10M link. The LXT972A reports link failure via the MII status bits (1.2 and 17.10) and interrupt functions. If auto-negotiation is enabled, link failure causes the LXT972A to re-negotiate. Link Failure Override The LXT972A normally transmits data packets only if it detects the link is up. Setting bit 16.14 = 1 overrides this function, allowing the LXT972A to transmit data packets even when the link is down. This feature is provided as a diagnostic tool. Note that auto-negotiation must be disabled to transmit data packets in the absence of link. If auto-negotiation is enabled, the LXT972A automatically transmits FLP bursts if the link is down. Carrier Sense For 100TX links, a start-of-stream delimiter (SSD) or /J/K symbol pair causes assertion of carrier sense (CRS). An end-of-stream delimiter (ESD) or /T/R symbol pair causes de-assertion of CRS. The PMA layer also de-asserts CRS if IDLE symbols are received without /T/R; however, in this case RX_ER is asserted for one clock cycle when CRS is de-asserted. Usage of CRS for Interframe Gap (IFG) timing is not recommended for the following reasons: * De-assertion time for CRS is slightly longer than assertion time. This causes IFG intervals to appear somewhat shorter to the MAC than it actually is on the wire. * CRS de-assertion is not aligned with TX_EN de-assertion on transmit loopbacks in halfduplex mode. Receive Data Valid The LXT972A asserts RX_DV to indicate that the received data maps to valid symbols. However, RXD outputs zeros until the received data is decoded and available for transfer to the controller. 3.7.3.3 Twisted-Pair PMD Sublayer The twisted-pair Physical Medium Dependent (PMD) layer provides the signal scrambling and descrambling, line coding and decoding (MLT-3 for 100TX, Manchester for 10T), as well as receiving, polarity correction, and baseline wander correction functions. Scrambler/Descrambler The purpose of the scrambler is to spread the signal power spectrum and further reduce EMI using an 11-bit, data-independent polynomial. The receiver automatically decodes the polynomial whenever IDLE symbols are received. 34 Datasheet 3.3V Dual-Speed Fast Ethernet Transceiver Datasheet -- LXT972A Scrambler Seeding. Once the transmit data (or Idle symbols) are properly encoded, they are scrambled to further reduce EMI and to spread the power spectrum using an 11-bit scrambler seed. Five seed bits are determined by the PHY address, and the remaining bits are hard coded in the design. Scrambler Bypass. The scrambler/descrambler can be bypassed by setting bit 16.12 = 1. Scrambler bypass is provided for diagnostic and test support. Baseline Wander Correction The LXT972A provides a baseline wander correction function which makes the device robust under all network operating conditions. The MLT3 coding scheme used in 100BASE-TX is by definition "unbalanced". This means that the average value of the signal voltage can "wander" significantly over short time intervals (tenths of seconds). This wander can cause receiver errors at long-line lengths (100 meters) in less robust designs. Exact characteristics of the wander are completely data dependent. The LXT972A baseline wander correction characteristics allow the device to recover error-free data while receiving worst-case "killer" packets over all cable lengths. Polarity Correction The 100BASE-TX descrambler automatically detects and corrects for the condition where the receive signal at TPIP and TPIN is inverted. Programmable Slew Rate Control The LXT972A device supports a slew rate mechanism whereby one of four pre-selected slew rates can be used. This allows the designer to optimize the output waveform to match the characteristics of the magnetics. The slew rate is determined by the TxSLEW pins as shown in Table 4 on page 14. 3.8 10Mbps Operation The LXT972A operates as a standard 10BASE-T transceiver. The LXT972A supports all the standard 10Mbps functions. During 10BASE-T (10T) operation, the LXT972A transmits and receives Manchester-encoded data across the network link. When the MAC is not actively transmitting data, the LXT972A drives link pulses onto the line. In 10T mode, the polynomial scrambler/descrambler is inactive. Manchester-encoded signals received from the network are decoded by the LXT972A and sent across the MII to the MAC. 3.8.1 10T Preamble Handling The LXT972A offers two options for preamble handling, selected by bit 16.5. In 10T Mode when 16.5 = 0, the LXT972A strips the entire preamble off of received packets. CRS is asserted coincident with SFD. RX_DV is held Low for the duration of the preamble. When RX_DV is asserted, the very first two nibbles driven by the LXT972A are the SFD "5D" hex followed by the body of the packet. Datasheet 35 LXT972A -- 3.3V Dual-Speed Fast Ethernet Transceiver Datasheet In 10T mode with 16.5 = 1, the LXT972A passes the preamble through the MII and asserts RX_DV and CRS simultaneously. In 10T loopback, the LXT972A loops back whatever the MAC transmits to it, including the preamble. 3.8.2 10T Carrier Sense For 10T links, CRS assertion is based on reception of valid preamble, and de-assertion on reception of an end-of-frame (EOF) marker. Bit 16.7 allows CRS de-assertion to be synchronized with RX_DV de-assertion. Refer to Table 46 on page 64. 3.8.3 10T Dribble Bits The LXT972A device handles dribbles bits in all modes. If between one through four dribble bits are received, the nibble is passed across the MII, padded with 1s if necessary. If between five through seven dribble bits are received, the second nibble is not sent onto the MII bus. 3.8.4 10T Link Integrity Test In 10T mode, the LXT972A always transmits link pulses. When the Link Integrity Test function is enabled (the normal configuration), it monitors the connection for link pulses. Once link pulses are detected, data transmission is enabled and remains enabled as long as either the link pulses or data transmission continue. If the link pulses stop, the data transmission is disabled. If the Link Integrity Test function is disabled, the LXT972A transmits to the connection regardless of detected link pulses. The Link Integrity Test function can be disabled by setting bit 16.14 = 1. 3.8.4.1 Link Failure Link failure occurs if Link Integrity Test is enabled and link pulses or packets stop being received. If this condition occurs, the LXT972A returns to the auto-negotiation phase if auto-negotiation is enabled. If the Link Integrity Test function is disabled by setting 16.14 = 1 in the Configuration Register, the LXT972A transmits packets, regardless of link status. 3.8.5 10T SQE (Heartbeat) By default, the Signal Quality Error (SQE) or heartbeat function is disabled on the LXT972A. To enable this function, set bit 16.9 = 1. When this function is enabled, the LXT972A asserts its COL output for 5-15 BT after each packet. See Figure 29 on page 51 for SQE timing parameters. 3.8.6 10T Jabber If a transmission exceeds the jabber timer, the LXT972A disables the transmit and loopback functions. See Figure 28 on page 51 for jabber timing parameters. The LXT972A automatically exits jabber mode after the unjabber time has expired. This function can be disabled by setting bit 16.10 = 1. 36 Datasheet 3.3V Dual-Speed Fast Ethernet Transceiver Datasheet -- LXT972A 3.8.7 10T Polarity Correction The LXT972A automatically detects and corrects for the condition where the receive signal (TPIP/ N) is inverted. Reversed polarity is detected if eight inverted link pulses, or four inverted end-offrame (EOF) markers, are received consecutively. If link pulses or data are not received by the maximum receive time-out period (96-128 ms), the polarity state is reset to a non-inverted state. 3.9 Monitoring Operations 3.9.1 Monitoring Auto-Negotiation Auto-negotiation can be monitored as follows: * Bit 17.7 is set to 1 once the Auto-Negotiation process is completed. * Bits 1.2 and 17.10 are set to 1 once the link is established. * Bits 17.14 and 17.9 can be used to determine the link operating conditions (speed and duplex). 3.9.1.1 Monitoring Next Page Exchange The LXT972A offers an Alternate Next Page mode to simplify the next page exchange process. Normally, bit 6.1 (Page Received) remains set until read. When Alternate Next Page mode is enabled (16.1 = 1), bit 6.1 is automatically cleared whenever a new negotiation process takes place. This prevents the user from reading an old value in 6.1 and assuming that Registers 5 and 8 (Partner Ability) contain valid information. Additionally, the LXT972A uses bit 6.5 to indicate when the current received page is the base page. This information is useful for recognizing when next pages must be resent due to a new negotiation process starting. Bits 6.1 and 6.5 are cleared when read. 3.9.2 LED Functions The LXT972A incorporates three direct LED drivers. On power up all the drivers are asserted for approximately 1 second after reset de-asserts. Each LED driver can be programmed using the LED Configuration Register (refer to Table 50 on page 68) to indicate one the following conditions: * * * * * * Operating Speed Transmit Activity Receive Activity Collision Condition Link Status Duplex Mode The LED drivers can also be programmed to display various combined status conditions. For example, setting bits 20.15:12 = 1101 produces the following combination of Link and Activity indications: * If Link is down LED is off. * If Link is up LED is on. Datasheet 37 LXT972A -- 3.3V Dual-Speed Fast Ethernet Transceiver Datasheet * If Link is up and activity is detected, the LED blinks at the stretch interval selected by bits 20.3:2 and continues to blink as long as activity is present. The LED driver pins also provide initial configuration settings. The LED pins are sensitive to polarity and automatically pulls up or pulls down to configure for either open drain or open source circuits (10 mA Max current rating) as required by the hardware configuration. Refer to the discussion of "Hardware Configuration Settings" on page 23 for details. 3.9.2.1 LED Pulse Stretching The LED Configuration Register also provides optional LED pulse stretching to 30, 60, or 100 ms. If during this pulse stretch period the event occurs again, the pulse stretch time is further extended. When an event such as receiving a packet occurs, it is edge detected and starts the stretch timer. The LED driver remains asserted until the stretch timer expires. If another event occurs before the stretch timer expires, the stretch timer is reset and the stretch time is extended. When a long event (such as duplex status) occurs, it is edge detected and starts the stretch timer. When the stretch timer expires the edge detector is reset so that a long event causes another pulse to be generated from the edge detector, which resets the stretch timer and causes the LED driver to remain asserted. Figure 20 shows how the stretch operation functions. Figure 20. LED Pulse Stretching Event LED stretch stretch stretch Note: The direct drive LED outputs in this diagram are shown as active Low. 3.10 Boundary Scan (JTAG1149.1) Functions LXT972A includes a IEEE 1149.1 boundary scan test port for board level testing. All digital input, output, and input/output pins are accessible. The BSDL file is available by contacting your local sales office (see the back page) or by accessing the Intel web site (developer.intel.com/design/ network/). 3.10.1 Boundary Scan Interface This interface consists of five pins (TMS, TDI, TDO, TRST, and TCK). It includes a state machine, data register array, and instruction register. The TMS and TDI pins are internally pulled up. TCK is internally pulled down. TDO does not have an internal pull-up or pull-down. 38 Datasheet 3.3V Dual-Speed Fast Ethernet Transceiver Datasheet -- LXT972A 3.10.2 State Machine The TAP controller is a 16 state machine driven by the TCK and TMS pins. Upon reset the TEST_LOGIC_RESET state is entered. The state machine is also reset when TMS and TDI are high for five TCK periods. 3.10.3 Instruction Register After the state machine resets, the IDCODE instruction is always invoked. The decode logic ensures the correct data flow to the Data registers according to the current instruction. Valid instructions are listed in Table 12. 3.10.4 Boundary Scan Register (BSR) Each Boundary Scan Register (BSR) cell has two stages.

R/W = Read /Write RO = Read Only LH = Latching High 2. Link status is the primary LED driver. The LED is asserted (solid ON) when the link is up. The secondary LED driver (Receive or Activity) causes the LED to change state (blink). 3. Combined event LED settings are not affected by Pulse Stretch bit 20.1. These display settings are stretched regardless of the value of 20.1. 4. Duplex status is the primary LED driver. The LED is asserted (solid ON) when the link is full duplex. Collision status is the secondary LED driver. The LED changes state (blinks) when a collision occurs. 5. Values are relative approximations. Not guaranteed or production tested. 68 Datasheet 3.3V Dual-Speed Fast Ethernet Transceiver Datasheet -- LXT972A Table 50.
