Description
The PHY requires either an external 24.576 MHz crystal or crystal oscillator. The internal oscillator drives an internal phase-locked loop (PLL), which generates the required 400 MHz reference signal. The 400 MHz reference signal is internally divided to provide the 49.152 MHz, 98.304 MHz, and
196.608 MHz clock signals that control transmission of the outbound encoded strobe and data information. The 49.152 MHz clock signal is also supplied to the associated LLC for synchronization of the two chips and is used for resynchronization of the received data. The powerdown function, when enabled by the PD signal high, stops operation of the PLL and disables all circuitry except the cable-not-active signal circuitry.
The PHY supports an isolation barrier between itself and its LLC. When /ISO is tied high, the link interface outputs behave normally. When /ISO is tied low, internal differentiating logic is enabled, and the outputs become short pulses, which can be coupled through a capacitor or transformer as described in the IEEE 1394-1995 Annex J. To operate with bus-keeper isolation, the /ISO pin of the FW801 must be tied high.
Data bits to be transmitted through the cable ports are received from the LLC on two, four, or eight data lines (D[0:7]), and are latched internally in the PHY in synchronization with the 49.152 MHz system clock. These bits are combined serially, encoded, and transmitted at 98.304 Mbits/s, 196.608 Mbits/s, or
393.216 Mbits/s as the outbound data-strobe information stream. During transmission, the encoded data information is transmitted differentially on the TPA and TPB cable pair(s).
During packet reception, the TPA and TPB transmitters of the receiving cable port are disabled, and the receivers for that port are enabled. The encoded data information is received on the TPA and TPB cable pair. The received data-strobe information is decoded to recover the receive clock signal and the serial data bits. The serial data bits are split into two, four, or eight parallel streams, resynchronized to the local system clock, and sent to the associated LLC. The received data is also transmitted (repeated) out of the other active (connected) cable ports.
Both the TPA and TPB cable interfaces incorporate differential comparators to monitor the line states during initialization and arbitration. The outputs of these comparators are used by the internal logic to determine the arbitration status. The TPA channel monitors the incoming cable common-mode voltage. The value of this common-mode voltage is used during arbitration to set the speed of the next packet
(continued)
transmission. In addition, the TPB channel monitors the incoming cable common-mode voltage for the presence of the remotely supplied twisted-pair bias voltage. This monitor is called bias-detect.
The TPBIAS circuit monitors the value of incoming TPA pair common-mode voltage when local TPBIAS is inactive. Because this circuit has an internal current source and the connected node has a current sink, the monitored value indicates the cable connection status. This monitor is called connect-detect.
Both the TPB bias-detect monitor and TPBIAS connect-detect monitor are used in suspend/resume signaling and cable connection detection.
The PHY provides a 1.86 V nominal bias voltage for driver load termination. This bias voltage, when seen through a cable by a remote receiver, indicates the presence of an active connection. The value of this bias voltage has been chosen to allow interoperability between transceiver chips operating from 5 V or 3 V nominal supplies. This bias voltage source should be stabilized by using an external filter capacitor of approximately 0.33 µF.
The transmitter circuitry, the receiver circuitry, and the twisted-pair bias voltage circuity are all disabled with a powerdown condition. The powerdown condition occurs when the PD input is high. The port transmitter circuitry and the receiver circuitry are also disabled when the port is disabled, suspended, or disconnected.
The line drivers in the PHY operate in a high­impedance current mode and are designed to work with external 112 line-termination resistor networks. One network is provided at each end of each twisted­pair cable. Each network is composed of a pair of series-connected 56 resistors. The midpoint of the pair of resistors that is directly connected to the twisted-pair A (TPA) signals is connected to the TPBIAS voltage signal. The midpoint of the pair of resistors that is directly connected to the twisted-pair B (TPB) signals is coupled to ground through a parallel RC network with recommended resistor and capacitor values of 5 k and 220 pF, respectively. The value of the external resistors are specified to meet the draft standard specifications when connected in parallel with the internal receiver circuits.
The driver output current, along with other internal operating currents, is set by an external resistor. This resistor is connected between the R0 and R1 signals and has a value of 2.49 kΩ ± 1%.

Description
The signal, C/LKON, as an input, indicates whether a node is a contender for bus manager. When the C/LKON signal is asserted, it means the node is a con­tender for bus manager. When the signal is not asserted, it means that the node is not a contender. The C bit corresponds to bit 20 in the self-ID packet (see Table 4-29 of the IEEE 1394-1995 standard for additional details).
The power-class bits of the self-ID packet do not have a default value. These bits can be initialized and read/ written through the LLC using the PHY Register Map Figure 6-1 of the IEEE P1394a Draft 2.0 standard. See Table 8 for the address space of the Pwr_class register.
A powerdown signal (PD) is provided to allow a power­down mode where most of the PHY circuits are powered down to conserve energy in battery-powered applications. A cable status signal, CNA, provides a high output when none of twisted-pair cable ports are receiving incoming bias voltage. This output is not debounced. The CNA output can be used to deter­mine when to power the PHY down or up. In the powerdown mode, all circuitry is disabled except the CNA circuitry. It should be noted that when the device is powered down, it does not act in a repeater mode.
When the power supply of the PHY is removed while the twisted-pair cables are connected, the PHY trans­mitter and receiver circuitry has been designed to present a high impedance to the cable in order to not load the TPBIAS signal voltage on the other end of the cable.
(continued)
For reliable operation, the TPBn signals must be termi­nated using the normal termination network regardless of whether a cable is connected to a port or not con­nected to a port. When a port does not have a cable connected, internal connect-detect circuitry will keep the port in a disconnected state.
Note: All gap counts on all nodes of a 1394 bus must
be identical. This may be accomplished by using PHY configuration packets (see Section 4.3.4.3 of IEEE 1394-1995 standard) or by using two bus resets, which resets the gap counts to the maximum level (3Fh).
The link power status (LPS) signal works with the C/LKON signal to manage the LLC power usage of the node. The LPS signal indicates that the LLC of the node is powered up or powered down. If LPS is inac­tive for more than 1.2 µs and less than 25 µs, PHY/link interface is reset. If LPS is inactive for greater than 25 µs, the PHY will disable the PHY/link interface to save power. If the PHY then receives a link-on packet, the C/LKON signal is activated to output a 6.114 MHz signal, which can be used by the LLC to power itself up. Once the LLC is powered up, the LPS signal com­municates this to the PHY and the PHY/link interface is enabled. C/LKON signal is turned off when both LPS is active and Link_active bit (see Table 9) is set.
Two of the signals are used to set up various test con­ditions used in manufacturing. These signals, SE and SM, should be connected to V
SS for normal operation.

Pin Signal* Type Name/Description
17 C/LKON I/O Bus Manager Capable Input and Link-On Output. On hardware reset, this pin is
used to set the default value of the contender status indicated during self-ID. The bit value programming is done by tying the signal through a 10 k resistor to V (high, bus manager capable) or to GND (low, not bus manager capable). Using either the pull-up or pull-down resistor allows the link-on output to override the input value when necessary.
After hardware reset, this pin is set as an output, C/LKON indicates the reception of a link-on message by asserting a 6.114 MHz signal.
13 CNA O Cable-Not-Active Output. CNA is asserted high when none of the PHY ports are
receiving an incoming bias voltage. This circuit remains active during the power­down mode.
20 CPS I Cable Power Status. CPS is normally connected to the cable power through a
400 k resistor. This circuit drives an internal comparator that detects the presence of cable power. This information is maintained in one internal register and is avail­able to the LLC by way of a register read (see IEEE P1394a Draft 2.0 Standard for a High Performance Serial Bus (Supplement)).

1 CTL0 I/O Control I/O. The CTLn signals are bidirectional communications control
signals between the PHY and the LLC. These signals control the passage

19 /ISO I Link Interface Isolation Disable Input (Active-Low). /ISO controls the
operation of an internal pulse differentiating function used on the PHY-LLC interface signals, CTLn and Dn, when they operate as outputs. When /ISO is asserted low, the isolation barrier is implemented between PHY and its LLC (as described in Annex J of IEEE 1394-1995). /ISO is normally tied high to disable isolation differentiation. Bus-keepers are enabled when /ISO is high (inactive) on CTL, D, and LREQ. When /ISO is low (active), the bus-keepers are disabled. Please refer to Agere’s application note AP98-074CMPR for more information on isolation.
14 LPS I Link Power Status. LPS is connected to either the V
DD supplying the
LLC or to a pulsed output that is active when the LLC is powered for the purpose of monitoring the LLC power status. If LPS is inactive for more than 1.2 µs and less than 25 µs, interface is reset. If LPS is inactive for greater than 25 µs, the PHY will disable to save power. FW801 continues its repeater function.
48 LREQ I Link Request. LREQ is an output from the LLC that requests the PHY to
perform some service. Bus-keeper circuitry is built into this terminal.
18 PD I Powerdown. When asserted high, PD turns off all internal circuitry except
the bias-detect circuits that drive the CNA signal.
41 PLLV
DD Power for PLL Circuit. PLLVDD
supplies power to the PLL circuitry
portion of the device.
42 PLLV
SS Ground for PLL Circuit. PLLVSS is tied to a low-impedance ground
plane.
37 R0 I Current Setting Resistor. An internal reference voltage is applied to a
resistor connected between R0 and R1 to set the operating current and
38 R1
the cable driver output current. A low temperature-coefficient resistor (TCR) with a value of 2.49 kΩ ± 1% should be used to meet the IEEE 1394-1995 standard requirements for output voltage limits.
45 /RESET I Reset (Active-Low). When /RESET is asserted low (active), a bus reset
condition is set on the active cable ports and the internal logic is reset to the reset start state. An internal pull-up resistor, which is connected to V
DD
, is provided, so only an external delay capacitor in parallel with a resistor is required to ensure that the capacitor is discharged when PHY power is removed. This input is a standard logic buffer and can also be driven by an open-drain logic output buffer.
23 SE I Test Mode Control. SE is used during the manufacturing test and should
be tied to V
SS.
24 SM I Test Mode Control. SM is used during the manufacturing test and should
be tied to V
