The ML4642 AUI Multiplexer contains all the necessary
drivers/receivers and control logic to implement a 2 port
MAU when used in conjuction with a transceiver chip
which has a standard 802.3 AUI interface. In addition, the
ML4642 is capable of operating in stand-alone mode
where it interconnects two DTEs in the absence of a
network MAU. Several ML4642s can be cascaded
together to implement a 4 or 8 port MAU or stand-alone
device.
Logic within the ML4642 detects collisions resulting from
multiple DTEs transmitting simultaneously. In addition,
collision signals received from a transceiver attached at
the MAU port are propagated to both of the DTE ports.
Jabbering DTEs are prevented from loading down the
network by internal jabber timers which disable babbling
ports.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
Figure 9 is a block diagram of a Two Port Multiplexer
using the ML4642 chip. All AUI interfaces are shown AC
coupled as they would be in an AUI multiplexer which
does not include the MAU circuitry on the same board.
TRANSMISSION
The transmit function consists of detecting data on either
of the TXIN differential receivers (TXIN1 or TXIN2) and
transmitting this data out the TXOUT differential driver at
the MAU port as well as both RXOUT1 and RXOUT2
drivers of the DTE ports. (Note: the looping back of data
received at a TXIN pair to the RXOUT pairs is discussed in
the Loopback section.)

RXOUT1N
Before data will be transmitted to the TXOUT and RXOUT
pins from the TXIN pins it must meet the unsquelch
requirements of the TXIN receiver circuitry. The squelch
circuitry prevents any noise on the TXIN wires from being
misinterpreted as data and transmitted to the TXOUT and
RXOUT pins. The squelch circuit rejects signals with pulse
widths less than typically 20ns and voltage levels more
positive than –250mV. Once the TXIN receiver is
unsquelched it remains so until reception of the input idle
signal, which is detected when the TXIN signal is more
positive than –170mV for longer than 180ns.
RECEPTION
The receive function consists of detecting data at the
RXIN differential receiver of the MAU port transmitting
this data to both DTE port RXOUT pairs.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
ML4642
Before data will be transmitted to the RXOUT pins of the
DTE ports it must meet the unsquelch requirements for the
RXIN receiver circuitry. The squelch circuitry at the RXIN
differential receiver input performs the same function as
that of the TXIN squelch circuitry using the same noise
rejection criteria.
COLLISION
There are two conditions that constitute a collision from
the point of view of the ML4642:
a) If data is received at the TXIN inputs of both DTE ports
simultaneously a local collision occurs within the
ML4642.
b) If the CDIN input is active at any time other than the
inter-packet gap window allowed for the SQE Test
function described below.
In either of the above circumstances it is necessary for the
ML4642 to drive the CDOUT pairs on both DTE ports with
the collision signal. The collision signal consists of a 10
MHz +/– 15% square wave matching the AUI
specifications and capable of driving a 78ý load. The
collision signal shall turn on within 2 bit times of the
origination of the collision condition and shall turn off
within 2–5 bit times after the collision condition subsides.
inter-packet gap time, the collision signal will be
activated on the CDOUT pair of the same port as the
TXIN pair which received the packet, for typically 1 µs.
The SQE function will not be activated on DTE ports of
the ML4642 which are in the Jabber state. The SQE
function is enabled on both DTE ports when the RXLED/
LPBK/SQE pin is grounded.
JABBER
The jabber function prevents a babbling transmitter from
loading down the network. Within the ML4642 is a jabber
timer on each TXIN receiver. Each timer starts at the
beginning of a received packet and resets at the end of
each packet. If a packet lasts longer than 7 to 20ms the
jabber logic disables its corresponding TXIN receiver (thus
preventing its data from being retransmitted) and
generates a collision signal on the babbling port’s CDOUT
pair. When the TXIN pair finally goes idle, a second timer
measures 0.5 seconds of idle on TXIN prior to re-enabling
the receiver and turning off the collision signal. If the
TXIN pair becomes active again before the 0.5 seconds
has expired, the timer is reset and measures another 0.5
seconds of idle time.
The jabber function can be disabled on both ports by tying
the JAB1/JABD pin to ground.
During a collision condition there are two sources for data
to be transmitted to TXOUT, TXIN1 and TXIN2. The highest
priority source for data to be transmitted to TXOUT is the
TXIN1 receiver.
For example if TXIN2 begins transmission then TXIN1 turns
on, the collision oscillator will turn on and TXOUT will
switch from TXIN2 to TXIN1. If the collision ends by
TXIN1 turning off first, TXOUT will switch from TXIN1 to
TXIN2, and 2–5 bit times later the collision oscillator will
turn off.
The MAU port’s CDIN receiver contains squelch circuitry
to prevent noise from causing the erroneous detection of a
collision signal. A signal on the CDIN pair will not be
considered active until it exceeds the same squelch
requirements as those of the TXIN receivers.
LOOPBACK
The loopback function allows the ML4642 to emulate a
coaxial transceiver by propagating the TXIN data back
out the RXOUT pair of the same DTE port that is sourcing
the data as well as the RXOUT pair of the idle DTE port.
This allows the Ethernet controller sending the data to
monitor its transmit packets and detect network faults.
The loopback function is enabled at both DTE ports when
the RXLED pin is tied to ground, or 0.6 volts.
SQE TEST FUNCTION
The Signal Quality Error (SQE) Test function allows the
DTE to determine whether or not the collision detection
circuitry is functional. After each transmission, during the
LED DRIVERS
The ML4642 has six LED driver pins. Each DTE port has a
transmit LED and a jabber LED and the MAU port has a
receive LED. Additionally, there is a collision LED which
indicates the presence of a collision condition. All LED
drivers are active low 10mA current sources.
The TXLED, RXLED, and CDLED outputs have 50ms pulse
stretchers on them to enable the LEDs to be visible. The
JLED outputs do not have pulse stretchers on them
because their conditions occur long enough for the LEDs
to be visible.
Two of the ML4642 LED outputs serve as configuration
pins as well. RXLED/LPBK/SQE and JAB1/JDIS may be
tied through a resistor to VCC, tied through a resistor and a
LED to V
may be tied to a specific voltage. When these pins are
grounded or tied to a 0.6 Volts they become configuration
inputs. Otherwise when tied high they become status
outputs.
CASCADING THE ML4642 FOR 4 AND 8 PORT DESIGNS
The configurability of such functions as loopback, jabber,
and SQE allows ease of cascading multiple ML4642 chips
for larger fan-out designs. Figure 10 shows a four port AUI
Multiplexer design. For a type 0 configuration both jabber
and transmit LEDs are available on a per port basis for
status. The RXLED/LPBK/SQE pins are tied through a
resistor to 5 volts, and CDLED is wire OR’ED with the
other chip for one collision detect status LED per system.
There is also only one receive LED status output which is
displayed in a type 2 configuration. This particular pin in
or grounded. Additionally RXLED/LPBK/SQE

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
ML4642
a type 2 configuration offers three options. In option 1,
when tied to +5 volts through a resistor and an LED, an
internal or external MAU will be connected. For standalone operation without an internal or external MAU a
loopback is required. Option 2 allows loopback with no
SQE test while option 3 provides loopback with an SQE
test.
An eight port design is accomplished in the same way as
shown in the block diagram in Figure 11. In an eight port
design Type 0 and Type 2 configuration remain the same
SQE TEST WHEN CASCADING
As mentioned before, after each transmission during the
interpacket gap time the collision signal will be activated
on the CDOUT pair of the same port as the TXIN pair
which received the packet. When cascading ML4642s to
implement 4 or 8 port designs, the path is remembered
and followed to acheive this function. The paths that did
not carry the transmit data blocks CDOUT for 4-7 µsec
after transmission to guarantee that only the port that
transmitted will see SQE test.
as in a four port design. Type 1 however only differs from
Type 2 by tying RXLED/LPBK/SQE through a resistor to +5
volts. Table 1 summerizes all of the different LED
configurations.
