MII RECEIVE CLOCK: Provides the 25 MHz recovered receive clocks for 100 Mb/s mode and 2.5 MHz for 10 Mb/s mode.
Unused in RMII mo de. T he d evi ce uses the X1 reference clock input as the 50 MHz reference for both transmit and receive.
SNI RECEIVE CLOCK: Provides the 10 MHz recovered receive clocks for 10 Mb/s SNI mode.
MII RECEIVE DATA VALID: Asserted high to i ndi ca te th at v al id d ata is present on the corresponding RXD[3:0].
RMII RECEIVE DATA VALID: Asserted high to indicate that valid data is present on the corresponding RXD[1:0]. This signal is not re quired in RMII mode, since CRS_DV includes the RX_DV signal, but is provided to allow simpler recovery of the Receive data.
This pin is not used in SNI mode. MII RECEIVE ERROR: Asserted high synchronously to RX_CLK to
indicate that an invalid symbol has been detected within a received packet in 100 Mb/s mode.
RMII RECEIVE ERROR: Asserted high synchronou sly to X1 when ev­er an invalid symbo l is detected, and CRS _DV is asserted in 100 Mb/s mode. This pin is als o ass ert ed on d ete cti on of a Fa ls e C arr ier eve nt. This pin is not required to be used by a MAC in RMII mode, since the Phy is required to corrupt data on a receive error.
This pin is not used in SNI mode. MII RECEIVE DATA: Nibble wide receive data signals driven syn-
chronously to the RX_CLK, 25 MHz for 100 Mb/s mode, 2.5 MHz for 10 Mb/s mode). RXD[3:0] signals contain valid data when RX_DV is asserted.
RMII RECEIVE DATA: 2-bits receive data signals, RXD[1:0], driven synchronousl y to the X1 clock, 50 MHz.
SNI RECEIVE DATA: Receive data signal, RXD_0, driven synchro­nously to the RX_CLK. RXD_0 contains valid data when CRS is as­serted. RXD[3:1] are not used in this mode.
MII CARRIER SENSE: Asserted high to indicate th e receive me dium is non-idle.
RMII CARRIER SENSE/RECEIVE DATA VALID: This signal com­bines the RMII Carrier and Receive Data Valid indications. For a de­tailed description of this signal, see the RMII Specification.
SNI CARRIER SENSE: Asserted high to in dicate the receive medium is non-idle. It is used to fra me valid receive data on the RXD _0 sign al.
MII COLLISION DETECT: Asserted high to indicate detection of a collision condition (simultaneous transmit and receive activity) in 10 Mb/s and 100 Mb/s Half Duplex Modes.
While in 10BASE-T Half Duplex mode with heartbeat enabled this pin is also asserted for a duration of approximately 1µs at the end of transmission to indicate heartbeat (SQE test).
In Full Duplex M ode, fo r 10 M b/s or 100 Mb /s op eration , this signa l is always logic 0. There is no heartbeat function during 10 Mb/s full du plex operation.
RMII COLLISION DETECT: Per the RMII Specification, no COL sig­nal is required. The MAC will recover CRS from the CRS_DV signal and use that along with its TX_EN signal to determine collision.
SNI COLLISION DETECT: Asserted high to indicate detection of a collision condition (simultaneous transmit and receive activity) in 10 Mb/s SNI mode.

1.7 Strap Options

The DP83849IF uses many of the functional pins as strap options. The values of these pins are sampled during reset and used to strap the device into specific modes of opera tion. The strap option pin assignments are defined below. The functional pin name is indicated in parentheses.

PHY ADDRESS [4:1]: The DP83849IF provides four PHY ad­dress pins, the state of which are la tch ed into the PHYC TRL re g-
5
ister at system Hardware-Reset. Phy Address[0] selects betwe en ports A and B.
The DP83849IF supports PHY Address strapping for Port A even values 0 (<0000_0>) through 30 (<1111_0>). Port B will be strapped to odd values 1 (<0000_1>) through 31 (<1111_1>).
PHYAD[4:1] pins have weak internal pull-down resistors.
A 2.2 k resistor should be used for pull-down or pull-up to change the default strap option. If the default option is required, then there is no need for external pull-up or pull
­down resistors. Since these pins may have alternate func
tions after reset is deasserted, they should not be con­nected directly to VCC or GND.

2.0 Configuration

This section in clude s inform atio n on the var ious con figura ­tion options available with the DP83849IF. The configura­tion options described below include:
— Media Configuration — Auto-Negotiation — PHY Address and LEDs — Half Duplex vs. Full Duplex — Isolate mode — Loopback mode —BIST

2.1 Media Configuration

The DP83849IF supports both Twister Pair (100BASE-TX and 10BASE-T) and Fiber (100BASE-FX) media. Each port may be independe ntly confi gu r ed fo r Twisted Pair (TP) or Fiber (FX) operation by strap option or by register access.
At power-up/reset, the st ate of the COL_A and COL_B pins will select the media for ports A and B respectively. The default selection is TP mode, while an external pull-up will select FX mode of operation. Strapping a port into FX mode also automatically sets the Far-End Fault Enable, bit 3 of PCSR (16h), the Scramble Bypass, bit 1 of PCSR (16h) and the Descrambler Bypass, bit 0 of PCSR (16h). In addition, the media selection may be controlled by writing to bit 6, FX_EN, of PCSR (16h).

2.2 Auto-Negotiation

The Auto-Negotiation function provides a mechanism for exchanging configuration information between two ends of a link segment and automatically selecting the highest per formance mode of operation supported by both devices. Fast Link Pulse (FLP) Bursts provide the signalling used to communicate Auto-Negotiation abilities between two devices at each end of a link segment. For further detail regarding Auto-Negotiation, refer to Clause 28 of the IEEE
802.3u specification. The DP83849IF supports four differ ent Ethernet protocols (10 Mb/s Half Duplex, 10 Mb/s Full Duplex, 100 Mb/s Half Duplex, and 100 Mb/s Full Duplex), so the inclusion of Auto-Negotiation ensures that the high est performance protocol will be selected based on the advertised ability of the Link Partner. The Auto-Negotiation function within the DP83849IF can be controlled either by internal register access or by the use of the AN_EN, AN1 and AN0 pins.

2.2.1 Auto-Negotiation Pin Control

The state of AN_EN, AN0 an d AN1 det ermine s wheth er the DP83849IF is forced into a specific mode or Auto-Negotia tion will advertise a specific ability (or set of abilities) as given in be selected without requiring internal register access.
The state of AN _EN, AN0 and A N1, upon po wer-up/ reset, determines the state of bits [8:5] of the ANAR register.
The Auto-Negotiation function selected at power-up or reset can be cha nged at any time by writin g to the Basic Mode Contro l Register (BMCR) at address 00h.

2.2.2 Auto-Negotiation Register Control

When Auto-Negotiation is enabled, the DP83849IF trans­mits the abilities programmed into the Auto-Negotiation Advertisement register (ANAR) at address 04h via FLP Bursts. Any combination of 10 Mb/s, 100 Mb/s, Half­Duplex, and Full Duplex modes may be selected.
Auto-Negotiation Priority Resolution: — (1) 100BASE-TX Full Duplex (Highest Priority)
— (2) 100BASE-TX Half Duplex — (3) 10BASE-T Full Duplex — (4) 10BASE-T Half Duplex (Lowest Priority) The Basic Mode Control Register (BMCR) at address 00h
provides control for enabling, disabling, and restarting the Auto-Negotiation process. When Auto-Negotiation is dis abled, the Speed Selection bit in the BMCR controls switching between 10 Mb/s or 100 Mb/s operation, and the Duplex Mode bit controls switching between full duplex operation and half duplex operation. The Speed Selection and Duplex Mode bits have no effect on the mode of oper ation when the Auto-Negotiation Enable bit is set.
The Link Speed can be examined through the PHY Status Register (PHYSTS) at address 10h after a Link is achieved.
The Basic Mode Status Register (BMSR) indicates the set of available abilities for technology types, Auto-Negotiation ability, and Extended Register Capability. These bits are permanently set to indicate the full functionality of the DP83849IF (only the 100BASE-T4 bit is not set since the DP83849IF does not support that function).
The BMSR also provides status on: — Whether or not Auto-Negotiation is complete — Whether or not the Link Partner is advertising that a re-
mote fault has occurred — Whether or not valid link has been established — Support for Management Frame Preamble suppression The Auto-Negotiation Advertisement Register (ANAR) indi-
cates the Auto-Negotiation abilities to be advertised by the DP83849IF. All available abilities are transmitted by default, but any ability can be suppressed by writing to the
-

DP83849IF

ANAR. Updating the ANAR to suppress an ability is one way for a management agent to change (restrict) the tech nology that is used.
The Auto-Negotiation Link Partner Ability Register (ANLPAR) at address 05h is used to receive the base link code word as well as all next page code words during the negotiati on. Furthermore, the ANLPAR will be updat ed to either 0081h or 0021h for parallel detection to either 100 Mb/s or 10 Mb/s respectively.
The Auto-Negotiation Expansion Register (ANER) indi­cates additional Auto-Negotiation status. The ANER pro­vides status on:
— Whether or not a Parallel Detect Fault has occurred — Whether or not the Link Partne r supp orts the N ext Pag e
function
— Whether or not the DP83849IF supports the Next Page
function
— Whether or not the current page being exchanged by
Auto-Negotiation has been receiv ed
— Whether or not the Link Partner supports Auto-Negotia-
tion

2.2.3 Auto-Negotia tion Para llel Detection

The DP83849IF supports the Parallel Detection function as defined in the IEEE 802.3u specifi ca tio n. Para lle l De tect io n requires both the 10 Mb/s and 100 Mb/s receivers to moni tor the receive signal and report link status to the Auto­Negotiation function. Auto-Negotiation uses this informa tion to configure th e corre ct techno logy i n the e vent th at the Link Partner does not support Auto-Negotiation but is transmitting link signals that the 100BASE-TX or 10BASE­T PMAs recognize as valid link signa ls .
If the DP83849IF co mp lete s Au to-Negotiation as a result of Parallel Detection, bits 5 and 7 within the ANLPAR register will be set to reflect the mode of operation present in the Link Partner. Note that bits 4:0 of the ANLPAR will also be set to 00001 based on a successful parallel detection to indicate a valid 802.3 selector field. Software may deter mine that negotiation completed via Parallel Detection by reading a zero in the Link Partn er Au to-N eg oti ati on Ab le b it once the Auto-Negotiat io n Compl ete b it i s s et. I f co nfi gure d for parallel detect mode and any condition other than a sin gle good link occurs then the parallel detect fault bit will be set.

2.2.5 Enabling Auto-Negotiation via Software

It is important to not e that i f the DP 8384 9IF has been initia l­ized upon power-up as a non-auto-negotiating device (forced technology), and it is then requ ire d that Auto-Nego­tiation or re-Auto-Negotiation be initiated via software,
12 (Auto-Negotiation Enable) of the Basic Mode Control
bit Register (BMCR) must first be cleared and then set for any Auto-Negotiation function to take effect.

2.2.6 Auto-Negotiation Complete Time

Parallel detection and Auto-Negotiation take approximately 2-3 seconds to co mp let e. In addition, Auto-Negotia tio n wi th next page should take approximately 2-3 seconds to com plete, depending on the number of next pages sent.
Refer to Clause 28 of the IEEE 802.3u standard for a full description of the individual timers related to Auto-Negotia­tion.
-

2.3 Auto-MDIX

When enabled, this function utilizes Auto-Negotiation to determine the proper configuration for transmission and reception of data and subsequently selects the appropriate MDI pair for MD I/ MD IX o pe ra ti on. T h e fu nc t io n us es a r an dom seed to control switching of the crossover circuitry.
-
DP83849IF

2.2.4 Auto-Negotiation Rest art

Once Auto-Negotiation has completed, it may be restarted at any time by setting bit 9 (Res tart Auto- Negotiat ion) of th e BMCR to one. If the mode confi gured b y a su cces sful Au to­Negotiation loses a valid link, then the Auto-Negotiation process will resume and attempt to determine the configu ration for the link. This function ensures that a valid config­uration is maintained if the cable becomes disconnected.
A renegotiation requ es t fro m any en tity, such as a manage­ment agent, wi ll cause th e DP83849I F to halt any tr ansmit data and link pulse activity until the break_link_timer expires (~1500 ms). Consequently, the Link Partner will go into link fail and normal Auto-Negotiation resumes. The DP83849IF will resume Auto-Negotiation after the break_link_timer has expired by issuing FLP (Fast Link Pulse) bursts.

MDIO bus in a system must have a unique physical address.
The DP83849IF supports PHY Address strapping of Port A to even values 0 (<0000_0>) through 30 (<1111_0>). Port B is strapped to odd values 1 (<0000_1>) through 31 (<1111_1>). Note that Port B address is always 1 greater than Port A address.
For further detail rela ting to the la tch -in timi ng requi rement s of the PHY Address pins, as well as the other hardware configuration pins, refer to the Reset summary in Section 6.0.
Refer to Figure 2 for an exam ple o f a PH YAD connection to external components. In this example, the PHYAD strap­ping results in address 00010 (02h) for Port A and address 00011 (03h) for Port B.
DP83849IF

2.4.1 MII Isolate Mode

The DP83849IF can be put into MII Isolate mode by writing to bit 10 of the BMCR register.
When in the MII isolate mode, the DP83849IF does not respond to packet data present at TXD[3:0], TX_EN inputs and presents a high impedance on the TX_CLK, RX_CLK, RX_DV, RX_ER, RXD[3:0], COL, and CRS outputs. When in Isolate mode, the DP83849IF will continue to respond to all management transactions.
While in Isolate mod e, th e PM D ou tput pair will not transm it packet data but will continue to source 100BASE-TX scrambled idles or 10BASE-T normal link pulses.
The DP83849IF can Auto-Negotiate or parallel detect to a specific technology depending on the receive signal at the PMD input pair. A valid link can be established for the receiver even when the DP83849IF is in Isolate mode.

2.5 LED Interface

The DP83849IF supports three configurable Light Emitting Diode (LED) pins for each port.
Several functions can be multiplexed onto the three LEDs using three different modes of operation. The LED opera­tion mode can be selected by writing to the LED_CFG[1:0]
register bits in the PHY Control Register (PHYCR) at address 19h, bits [6:5]. In addition, LED_CFG[0] for each port can be set by a strap option on the CRS_A and CRS_B pins. LED_CFG[1] is only controllable through reg ister access and cannot be set by as strap pin.
See Table 3 for LED Mode selection.
-
DP83849IF
The LED_LINK pin in Mode 1 indicates the link status of the port. In 100BASE-T mode, link is established as a result of input receive amplitude compliant with the TP­PMD specifications which will result in internal generation of signal detect. A 10 Mb/s Link is est abli shed as a result of the reception of at least seven consecutive normal Link Pulses or the reception of a valid 10BASE-T packet. This will cause the as sertion of LED_LINK. L ED _LIN K w il l d ea s sert in accordance with the Link Loss Timer as specified in the IEEE 802.3 specification.
The LED_LINK p in in Mode 1 w i ll be O FF w h en no LI N K is present.
The LED_LINK pin in Mode 2 and Mode 3 will be ON to indicate Link is good and BLINK to indicate activity is present on activity. The BLINK frequency is defined in BLINK_FREQ, bits [7:6] of register LEDCR (18h).
Activity is defined as configured in LEDACT_RX, bit 8 of register LEDCR (18h). If LEDACT_RX is 0, Activity is sig naled for either transmit or receive. If LEDACT_RX is 1, Activity is only signaled for receive.
The LED_SPEED pin indicates 10 or 100 Mb/s data rate of the port. The LED is ON when operating in 100Mb/s mode and OFF when operating in 10Mb/s mode. The functional ity of this LED is independent of mode selected.
The LED_ACT/LED_COL pin in Mo de 1 ind ic ates the pre s­ence of either transmit or receive activity. The LED will be ON for Activity and OFF for No Activity. In Mode 2, this pin indicates the Collision status of the port. The LED will be ON for Collision and OFF for No Collision.
-
-
-
The LED_ACT/LED_COL pin in Mode 3 indicates Duplex status for 10 Mb/s or 100 Mb/s operation. The LED will be ON for Full Duplex and OFF for Half Duplex.
In 10 Mb/s half duplex mode, the collision LED is based on the COL signal.
Since these LED pins are also used as strap options, the polarity of the LED is dependent on whether the pin is pulled up or down.

2.5.1 LEDs

Since the Auto-Negotiation (AN) strap options share the LED output pins, the external components required for strapping and LED usage must be considered in order to avoid contention.
Specifically, when the LED outputs are used to drive LEDs directly, the active state of each output driver is dependent on the logic level sampled by the corresponding AN input upon power-up/reset. For example, if a given AN input is resistively pulled low then the corresponding output will be configured as an active high driver.

2.6 Half Duplex vs. Full Duplex

The DP83849IF supports both half and full duplex opera­tion at both 10 Mb/s and 100 Mb/s speeds.
Half-duplex relies on the C SMA/C D protoc ol t o handl e colli ­sions and network access. In Half-Duplex mode, CRS responds to both transmit and receive activity in order to maintain compliance with the IEEE 802.3 specification.
Since the DP83849IF is designed to support simultaneous transmit and receiv e act ivi ty it is capabl e of su ppor tin g full ­duplex switched ap pli ca tio ns with a throughput of up to 200 Mb/s per port when operating in either 100BASE-TX or 100BASE-FX. Because the CSMA/CD protocol does not apply to full-duplex operation, the DP83849IF disables its own internal collision sensing and reporting functions and modifies th e behavior of Carr ier Sense (CRS ) such that it indicates only receive activity. This allows a full-duplex capable MAC to operate properly.
All modes of operation (100BASE-TX, 100BASE-FX, 10BASE-T) can run either half-duplex or full-duplex. Addi tionally, other than CRS and Collision reporting, all remain­ing MII signaling remains the same regardless of the selected duplex mode.
-
It is important to understand that while Auto-Negotiation with the use of Fast Link Pulse code words can interpret and configure to full-duplex operation, parallel detection can not recognize the difference between full and half­duplex from a fixed 10 Mb/s or 100 Mb/s link partner over twisted pair. As specified in the 802.3u specification, if a far-end link partner is configured to a forced full duplex 100BASE-TX ability, the parallel detection state machine in the partner would be unable to detect the full duplex capa bility of the far-end link partner. This link segment would negotiate to a half duplex 100BASE-TX configuration (same scenario for 10Mb/s).
Auto-Negotiation is not supported in 100BASE-FX opera­tion. Selection of Half o r Ful l-du ple x o pera tio n is co ntrolled by bit 8 of the Basic Mode Control Register (BMCR), address 00h. If 100BASE-FX mode is strapped using the FX_EN pin, the AN0 strap value is used to set the value of bit 8 of the BMCR (00h) register. Note that the other Auto­Negotiation strap pins (AN_EN and AN1) are ignored in 100BASE-FX mode.
-

2.7 Internal Loopback

The DP83849IF includes a Loopback Test mode for facili­tating system diagnostics. The Loopback mode is selected through bit 14 (Loopback) of the Basic Mode Control Reg ister (BMCR). Writing 1 to this bit enables MII transmit data to be routed to the MII receive outputs. Loopback status may be checked in bit 3 of the PHY Status Register (PHYSTS). While in Loopback mode the data will not be transmitted onto the media. To ensure that the desired operating mode is maintained, Auto-Negotiation should be disabled before selecting the Loopback mode.
-

2.8 BIST

The DP83849IF incorporates an internal Built-in Self Test (BIST) circuit to accommodate in-circuit testing or diagnos­tics. The BIST circuit can be utilized to test the integrity of the transmit and receive data paths. BIST testing can be performed with the part in the internal loopback mode or externally looped back using a loopback cable fixture.
The BIST is implemented with independent transmit and receive paths, with the tran sm it bl ock gene rati ng a con tin u ous stream of a pseudo random sequence. The user can select a 9 bit or 15 bit pseudo random sequence from the PSR_15 bit in the PHY Control Register (PHYCR). The received data is compared to the generated pseudo-ran dom data by the BIST Linear Feedback Shift Register (LFSR) to determine the BIST pass/fail status.
The pass/fail status of the BIST is stored in the BIST status bit in the PHYCR reg ister. The status bit defaults to 0 (BIST fail) and will transition on a successful comparison. If an error (mis-compare) occurs, the status bit is latched and is cleared upon a subsequent write to the Start/Stop bit.
For transmit VOD testing, the Packet BIST Continuous Mode can be used to allow continuous data transmission, setting BIST_CONT_MODE, bit 5, of CDCTRL1 (1Bh).
The number of BIST errors can be monitored through the BIST Error Count in the CDCTRL1 (1Bh), bits [15:8].

3.0 MAC Interface

The DP83849IF support s se veral m odes of op eration using the MII interface pins. The optio ns are defi ned in th e foll ow ing sections and include:
— MII Mode — RMII Mode — 10 Mb Serial Network Interface (SNI) — Single Clock MII Mode (SCMII) In addition, the DP83849IF supports the standard 802.3u
MII Serial Management Interface and a Flexible MII Port Assignment scheme.
The modes of operation can be selected by strap options or register control. For RMII mode, it is recommended to use the strap option, since it requires a 50 MHz clock instead of the normal 25 MHz.
In each of these modes, the IEEE 802.3 serial manage-

3.2 Reduced MII Interface

The DP83849IF incorporates the Reduced Media Indepen­dent Interface (RMII) as specified in the RMII specification (rev1.2) from the RMII Consortium. This interface may be used to connect PHY devices to a MAC in 10/100 Mb/s systems using a reduced number of pins. In this mode, data is transferred 2-bits at a time using the 50 MHz RMII_REF clock for both transmit and receive. The follow ing pins are used in RMII mode:
—TX_EN —TXD[1:0] — RX_ER (optional for Mac) — CRS_DV — RXD[1:0] — X1 (RMII Reference clock is 50 MHz) In addition, the RMII mode supplies an RX_DV signal
which allows for a simpler method of recovering receive data without having to separate RX_DV from the CRS_DV indication. This is especially useful for diagnostic testing where it may be desirable to externally loop Receive MII data directly to the transmitter.
The RX_ER output may be used by the MAC to detect error conditions. It is asserted for symbol errors received during a pack et, False Carrier even ts, and also for FIFO underrun or overrun conditions. Since the Phy is required to corrupt receive data on an error, a MAC is not required to use RX_ER.
It is important to note that since both digital channels in the DP83849IF share the X1/RMII_REF input, both channels must have RMII mod e enabled or both chann el s m us t hav e
Table 4. Supported packet sizes at +/-50ppm frequency accuracy
-
RMII mode disabled. Either channel may be in 10Mb or 100Mb mode in RMII or non-RMII mode.
Since the reference clock operates at 10 times the data rate for 10 Mb/s operation, transmit data is sampled every 10 clocks. Likewise, receive data will be generated every 10th clock so that an attached device can sample the data every 10 clocks.
RMII mode requires a 50 MHz oscillator be connected to the device X1 pin. A 50 MHz crystal is not supported.
To tolerate potential frequency differences between the 50 MHz reference clock and the recovered receive clock, the receive RMII function includes a programmable elasticity buffer. The elasticity buffer is programmable to minimize propagation delay based on expected packet size and clock accuracy. This allows for supporting a range of packet sizes including jumbo frames.
The elasticity buffer will force Frame Check Sequence errors for packets which overrun or underrun the FIFO. Underrun and Overrun conditions can be reported in the RMII and Bypass Register (RBR). The following table indi cates how to program the elastic ity buf fer fifo (in 4-bit incre­ments) based on expected max packet size and clock accuracy. It assumes both clocks (RMII Reference clock and far-end Transmitter clock) have the same accuracy.
Packet lengths can be scaled linearly based on accuracy (+/- 25ppm would allows packets twice as large). If the threshold setting must support both 10Mb and 100Mb operation, the setting should be made to support both speeds.

3.3 10 Mb Serial Network Interface (SNI)

The DP83849IF incorpor ate s a 10 M b Se rial Netw ork Int er­face (SNI) which al lo ws a simple serial dat a in terface for 10 Mb only devices. This is also referred to as a 7-wire inter face. While there is no defined standard for this interface, it is based on early 10 Mb physical layer devices. Data is clocked serially at 10 MHz using separate transmit and receive paths. The following pins are used in SNI mode:
—TX_CLK —TX_EN —TXD[0] —RX_CLK —RXD[0] — CRS —COL

3.4 Single Clock MII Mode

Single Clock MII (SCMII) Mode allows MII operation using a single 25MHz reference clock. Normal MII Mode requires
-
three clocks, a reference clock for physical layer functions, a Transmit MII clock, and a Receive MII clock. Similar to RMII mode, Single Clock MII mode requires only the refer ence clock. In addition to reducing the number of pins required, this mode allows the attached MAC device to use only the reference clock domain. Since the DP83849IF has two ports, this actually reduces the number of clocks from 6 to 1. A/ C Timing re quir ements for SC MII op erat ion are similar to the RMII timing requirements.
For 10Mb operation, as in RMII mode, data is sampled and driven every 10 clocks si nce the refere nce clock is a t 10x the data rate.
Separate control bits allow enabling the Transmit and Receive Single Clock modes separately, allowing just transmit or receive to operate in this mode. Control of Sin gle Clock MII mode is through the RBR register.
Single Clock MII mode incorporates the use of the RMII elasticity buffer, which is required to tolerate potential fre quency differences between the 25MHz reference clock and the recovered receive clock. Settings for the Elasticity Buffer for SCMII mode are detailed in the following table.

3.5 Flexible MII Port Assignment

The DP83849IF supports a flexible assignment scheme for each of the channels to the MII/RMII interface. Either of the MII ports may be assigned to the internal channels A/B. These values are contro lled by th e RMII and Bypas s Reg ister (RBR), address 17h. Transmit assignments and Receive assignments can be made separately to allow even more flexibility (i.e. both channels could transmit from MII A while still allowing separate receive paths for the channels).

In addition, the opposite receive channel may be used as the transmit source for each channel. As shown in Figure 4, Channel A receive data may be used as the Channel B transmit data source while Channel B receive data may be used as the Channel A transmit data source. For proper clock synchronization, this function requires the device be in RMII m ode or Single Clock MII mode of opera tion. A configuration strap is provided on pin 56, RXD2_B/EXTENDER_EN to enable this mode.

3.5.4 Strapped Extender or Media Converter Mode

The DP83849IF provides a simple strap option to automat­ically configure both channels for Extender or Media Con­verter Mode with no device register configuration necessary. The EXTENDER_EN Strap can be used in conjunction with the Auto-Negotiation Straps (AN_EN, AN0, AN1), the RMII Mode Strap, and the Fiber Mode (FX_EN) Strap to allow many possible configurations. If

3.5.5 Notes and Restrictions

Extender/Media Converter: Both chann els must be op-
erating at the same speed (10 or 100Mb). This can be accomplished us ing s traps or c hannel regis ter c ontrols . Both channels must be in Full Duplex mode. Both chan nels must either be in R MII Mode (R BR:RMII_EN = 1) or full Single Clock MII Mode (RBR:SCMII_RX = 1 and RBR:SCMII_TX = 1) to ensure synchrono us operation. only one RX to TX path is ena bled, SCMII_RX in the RX channel (RBR register 17h bit 7) and SCMII_TX in the TX channel (RBR register 17h bit 6) must be set to 1. Media Conversion is only supported in 100Mb mode; one channel must be in Fiber Mode (100Base-FX) and the other channel must be in Copper Mode (100Base­TX).
Broadcast TX MII Port Mode: To ensure sync hro nou s
operation, both channels must be in RMII Mode (RBR register 17h bit 5 = 1) or in Single Clock TX MII Mode (RBR register 17h bit 6 = 1). Both channels must be op erating at the same speed (10 or 100Mb). Both channels must be in Full Duplex mode to ensure no collisions are seen. This is because in Single Clock TX MII Mode, a collision on one PHY channel would cause both chan nels to send the Jam pattern.
RMII Mode: Both Channels must have RMII Mode en-
abled or disabled concurrently due to the internal refer­ence clocking scheme. In Full Port Swap Mode, Channels are not required to have a common speed.
10Base-T Serial M ode: This MAC-side mode, also
known as Serial Network Interface (SNI), may not be used when both channels share data connections (Ex tender/Media Converter or Broa dcast TX MII Port). This is due to the requirement of synchronous operation be tween channels, which is not supported in SNI Mode.
CRS Assignment: When a channel is n ot in RMII Mode ,
its associated CRS pin is sourced from the transmitter
Extender Mode is strapped but RMII Mode is not, both channels will automatically be configured for Single Clock MII Receive and Transmit Modes. The optional use of RMII Mode in co njun cti on w ith E xte nde r Mode a llo ws f lexi bility in the system design.

Test Modes: Test modes are not designed to be com-

LED Assignment: LEDs are associated with their re-
spective digital channels, and therefore do not get mapped to alternate channels. For example, assertion of LED_LINK_A indicate s valid lin k status fo r Channel A independent of the MII Port Assignment.
Straps: Strap pins are always associated with their re-
spective channel, i.e. a strap on RX_ER_A is used by
­Channel A.
Port Isolate Mode: Each MII port’s Isolate function, bit
10 of BMCR (00h) is always associated with its respec tive channel, i. e. the Isolat e func tion fo r Port A i s alwa ys controlled by Channel A’s BMCR (00h). Due to the var ious possible combi nation s of TX and RX po rt selectio n, it may not be advisable to place a port in Isolate mode.

These functions shoul d be dis abled wh eneve r an MII port is in use b ut not ass igned to its defau lt chann el.

­MII ports are not in use.

3.6 802.3u MII Serial Management Interface

DP83849IF

3.6.1 Seri al Managemen t Register Access

The serial management MII specification defines a set of thirty-two 16-bit status and control registers that are acces
­sible through the management interface pins MDC and MDIO. The DP83849IF im pleme nts all the requi red MII re g
­isters as well as several optional registers. These registers are fully described in Section 7.0. A descri ption of the seria l management access protocol follows.

3.6.2 Serial Management Access Protocol

The serial co ntrol interface co nsists of two pins, Manage­ment Data Clock (MDC) and Management Data Input/Out­put (MDIO). MDC has a maximum clock rate of 25 MHz and no minimum rate. The MDIO line is bi-directional and may be shared by up to 32 devices. The MDIO frame for
­mat is shown below in Table 12.
In addition, the MDIO pin requires a pull-up resistor (1.5
) which, during IDLE and turnaround, will pull MDIO
k high. In order to initialize the MDIO interface, the station management entity sends a sequence of 32 contiguous logic ones on MDIO to provide the DP83849IF with a sequence that can be used to establish synchronization. This preamble may be generated either by driving MDIO high for 32 consecutive MDC clock cycles, or by simply allowing the MDIO p ull-up r esi stor to pull th e MDIO pin hig h during which time 32 MDC clock cycles are provided. In addition 32 MDC clock cycles should be used to re-sync the device if an invalid start, opcode, or turnaround bit is detected.
The DP83849IF waits until it has received this preamble sequence before responding to any other transaction. Once the DP83849IF serial manage ment port has be en ini
­tialized no further preamble sequencing is required until after a power-on/reset, invalid Start, invalid Opcode, or invalid turnaround bit has occurred.
The St art co de is indicated by a <01> pattern. Th is assure s the MDIO line transitions from the default idle line state.
Turnaround is defined as an idle bit time inserted between the Register Address field and the Data field. To avoid con­tention during a read transaction, no device shall actively drive the MDIO signal during the first bit of Turnaround. The addressed DP83849IF dri ve s the MDI O with a zero for the second bit of turnaround and follows this with the required data.
Figure 5 shows the timing relationship between MDC and th e MDIO as dr iven/re ceiv ed by the Sta­tion (STA) and the DP83849IF (PHY) for a typical register read access .
For write transactions, the station management entity writes data to the addressed DP83849IF thus eliminating the requirement for MDIO Turnaround. The Turnaround time is filled by the management entity by inserting <10>. Figure 6 shows the timing relationship for a typical MII reg­ister write access.

3.6.3 Serial Management Preamble Suppression

The DP83849IF supports a Preamble Suppression mode as indicated by a one in bit 6 of the Basic Mode Status Register (BMSR, address 01h.) If the station management entity (i.e. MAC or other management controller) deter
­mines that all PHYs in the system support Preamble Sup­pression by returning a one in this bit, then the station management entity need not generate preamble for each management transaction.
The DP83849IF requires a single initialization sequence of 32 bits of preamble fol lo w ing hard ware/s oftware reset. This requirement is generally met by the mandatory pull-up resistor on MD I O in co nj unc ti o n wi th a co nt i nuo us MD C, or the management access made to determine whether Pre
­amble Suppression is supported.
While the DP83849IF requires an initial preamble sequence of 32 bits for management initialization, it does not require
ZZ

Idle
a full 32-bit sequence between each subsequent transac­tion. A minimum of one idle bit between management transactions is required as specified in the IEEE 802.3u specification.

3.6.4 Simultaneous Register Write

The DP83849IF inco rpo rates a m od e w hic h a llo w s sim ulta­neous write access to both Port A and B register blocks at the same time. This mode is selected by setting bit 15 of RMII and By pass Register (RBR, address 17h) in Port A.
As long as this bit remains set, subsequent writes to Port A will write to registers in both ports.
Register reads are unaf f ec ted. Each port must still be read individually.

4.0 Architecture

This section describes the operations within each trans­ceiver module, 100BASE-TX and 10BASE-T. Each opera­tion consists of several functional blocks and described in the following:
— 100BASE-TX Transmitter — 100BASE-TX Receiver — 100BASE-FX Operation — 10BASE-T Transceiver Module

4.1 100BASE-TX TRANSMITTER

The 100BASE-TX transmitter consists of several functional blocks which conver t sy nchronous 4-bit ni bble d at a, as p ro vided by the MII, to a scrambled MLT-3 125 Mb/s serial data stream. Because the 100BASE-TX TP-PMD is inte grated, the differential output pins, PMD Output Pair, can be directly routed to the magnetics.
The block diagram in Figure 7. provides an overview of each functional block within the 100BASE-TX transmit sec­tion.
The Transmitter section consists of the following functional blocks:
— Code-group Encoder and Injection block — Scrambler block (bypass option) — NRZ to NRZI encoder block — Binary to MLT-3 converter / Common Driver The bypass option for the functional blocks within the
100BASE-TX transmitter provides flexibility for applications where data conversion is not always required. The DP83849IF implements the 100BASE-TX transmit state

4.1.1 Code-group Encoding and Injection

The code-group encoder converts 4-bit (4B) nibble data generated by the MAC into 5-bit (5B) code-groups for transmission. This conversion is required to allow control data to be combined with packet data code-groups. Refer
Table 13 for 4B to 5B code-group mapping details.
to The code-group encoder substitutes the first 8-bits of the
MAC preamble with a J/K code-group pair (11000 10001) upon transmission. The code-group encoder continues to replace subsequent 4B preamble and data nibbles with corresponding 5B code-groups. At the end of the transmit packet, upon the deassertion of Transmit Enable signal from the MAC, the code-group encoder injects the T/R code-group pair (01101 00111) indicating the end of the frame.
After the T/R code-group pair, the code-group encoder continuously injects IDLEs into the transmit data stream until the next transmit packet is detected (reassertion of Transmit Enable).

4.1.2 Scrambler

The scrambler is required to control the radiated emissions at the media connector and on the twisted pair cable (for 100BASE-TX applications). By scrambling the data, the total energy launched onto the cable is randomly distrib uted over a wide frequency range. Without the scrambler, energy levels at the PMD and on the cable could peak beyond FCC limitations at frequencies related to repeating 5B sequences (i.e., continuous transmission of IDLEs).
The scrambler is configured as a closed loop linear feed­back shift register (LFSR) with an 11-bit polynomial. The output of the closed loop LFSR is X-ORd with the serial NRZ data from the code-group encoder. The result is a scrambled data stream with sufficient randomization to decrease radiated emissions at certain frequencies by as much as 20 dB. The DP83849IF uses the PHY_ID (pins PHYAD [4:1]) to set a unique seed value.
-
transmit transformer primary winding, resulting in a MLT-3 signal.
The 100BASE-TX MLT-3 signal sourced by the PMD Out­put Pair common driver is slew rate controlled. This should be considered when selecting AC coupling magnetics to ensure TP-PMD Standard compliant transition times (3 ns < Tr < 5 ns).
The 100BASE-TX transmit TP-PMD function within the DP83849IF is capable of sourcing only MLT-3 encoded data. Binary output from the PMD Output Pair is not possi ble in 100 Mb/s mode.
-

4.2 100BASE-TX RECEIVER

The 100BASE-TX receiver consists of several functional blocks which convert the scrambled MLT-3 125 Mb/s serial data stream to synchronous 4-bit nibble data that is pro vided to the MII. Because the 100BASE-TX TP-PMD is integrated, the differential input pins, RD±, can be di rectly routed from the AC coupling magnetics.
See Figure 8 for a block diagram of the 100BASE-TX receive function. This provides an overview of each func­tional block within the 100BASE-TX receive section.
The Receive section consists of the following functional blocks:
— Analog Front End — Digital Signal Processor — Signal Detect — MLT-3 to Binary Decoder — NRZI to NRZ Decoder — Serial to Parallel — Descrambler — Code Group Alignment —4B/5B Decoder — Link Integrity Monitor — Bad SSD Detection

DP83849IF

4.1.3 NRZ to NRZI Encoder

After the transmit data stream has been serialized and scrambled, the data must be NRZI encoded in order to comply with the TP-PMD standard for 100BASE-TX trans mission over Category-5 Unshielded twisted pair cable.

4.1.4 Binary to MLT-3 Convertor

The Binary to MLT-3 conversion is accomplished by con­verting the serial binary data stream output from the NRZI encoder into two binary data streams with alternately phased logic one events. These two binary streams are then fed to the twisted pa ir out put dri ve r whic h co nverts the voltage to current and alternately drives either side of the

4.2.1 Analog Front End

In addition to the Digital Equalization and Gain Control, the DP83849IF includes Analog Equalization and Gain Control in the Analog Front End. The Analog Equalization reduces the amount of Digital Equalization required in the DSP.

4.2.2 Digital Signal Processor

The Digital Signal Processor includes Adaptive Equaliza­tion with Gain Control and Base Line Wander Compensa­tion.

4.2.2.1 Digital Adaptive Equaliza tion and Ga in Con tr ol
When transmitting data at high speeds over copper twisted pair cable, frequency dependent attenuation becomes a concern. In high-speed twisted pair signalling, the fre quency content of the transmitted signal can vary greatly during normal operation based primarily on the random ness of the scrambled data stream. This variation in signal attenuation caused by frequency variations must be com pensated to ensure the integrity of the transmission.
In order to ensure quality transmission when employing MLT-3 encoding, th e compensation must be able to ad apt to various cable lengths and cable types depending on the installed en vironment. The se lection of lo ng cable lengths for a given implementation, requires significant compensa tion which will over-compensate for shorter, less attenuat­ing lengths. Conversely, the selection of short or intermediate cable lengths requiring less compensation will cause serious under-compensation for longer length cables. The compensation or equalization must be adap
-
-

-
-
tive to ensure proper conditioning of the received signal independent of the cable length.
The DP83849IF utilizes an extremely robust equalization scheme referred as ‘Digital Adaptive Equalization.’
The Digital Equalizer removes ISI (inter symbol interfer­ence) from the receive data stream by continuously adapt­ing to provide a filter with the inverse frequency response of the channel. Equalization is combined with an adaptive gain control stage. This enables the receive 'eye pattern' to be opened sufficiently to allow very reliable data recovery.
The curves given in Figure 9 illustrate attenuation at ce rtai n frequencies for given cable lengths. This is derived from the worst case frequency vs. attenuation figures as speci fied in the EIA/TIA Bulletin TSB-36. These curves indicate the signific ant vari ations in signal at tenua tion that must be compensated f or by the receive adaptive equaliz ation cir cuit.

4.2.2.2 Base Line Wander Compensation
DP83849IF
Figure 10. 100BASE-TX BLW Event
The DP83849IF is completely ANSI TP-PMD compliant and includes Base Line Wander (BLW) compensation. The BLW compensation block can succ e ssf ul ly re c over th e T P­PMD defined “killer” pattern.
BLW can generally be defined as the change in the aver­age DC content, relatively short period over time, of an AC coupled digital transmission over a given transmission medium. (i.e., copper wire).
BLW results from the interaction between the low fre­quency components of a transmitted bit stream and the fre­quency response of the AC coupling component(s) within the transmission system. If the low frequency content of the digital bit stream goes below the low frequency pole of the AC coupling transformers then the droop characteris tics of the transformers w ill do mi nate res ulting in potentially serious BLW.
The digital oscilloscope plot provided in Figure 10 illus­trates the severity of the BLW event that can theoretically be generated during 100BASE-TX packet transmission. This event consists of approximately 800 mV of DC offset for a period of 120 µs. Left uncompensated, ev ent s suc h as this can cause packet loss.

4.2.3 Signal Detect

The signal detect function of the DP83849IF is incorpo­rated to meet the specifications mandated by the ANSI
-
FDDI TP-PMD Standard as well as the IEEE 802.3 100BASE-TX S tandard for both volt age th res ho lds a nd tim ing parameters.
Note that the reception of normal 10BASE-T link pulses and fast link pulses per IEEE 802.3u Auto-Negotiation by the 100BASE-TX receiver do not cause the DP83849IF to assert signal detect.

4.2.4 MLT-3 to NRZI Decoder

The DP83849IF decodes the MLT-3 information from the Digital Adaptive Equalizer block to binary NRZI data.

4.2.5 NRZI to NRZ

In a typical application, the NRZI to NRZ decoder is required in order to present NRZ formatted data to the descrambler.

4.2.6 Serial to Parallel

The 100BASE-TX receiver includes a Serial to Parallel converter which supplies 5-bit wide data symbols to the PCS Rx state machine.
-
37 www.national.com

4.2.7 Descrambler

A serial descrambler is used to de-scramble the received NRZ data. The descrambler has to generate an identical data scrambling sequence (N) in order to recover the origi nal unscrambled data (UD) from the scrambled data (SD) as represented in the equations:
-
SD UD N()= UD SD N()=
Synchronization of the descrambler to the original scram­bling sequence (N) is achieved based on the knowledge that the incoming scrambled data stream consists of scrambled IDLE data. After the descrambler has recog nized 12 consecutive IDLE code-groups, where an unscramble d IDLE code-group in 5B NRZ is equal to five consecutive one s (1111 1), it w ill synchron ize to the r eceive data stream and generate unscrambled data in the form of unaligned 5B code-groups .
In order to maintain synchronization, the descrambler must continuously monitor the validity of the unscrambled data that it generates. To ensure this, a line state monitor and a hold timer are used to constantly monitor the synchroniza tion status. Upon synchronization of the descrambler the hold timer star ts a 722 µs countdown. Upon detection of sufficient IDLE c ode -gro up s (58 b it tim es) with in th e 72 2 period, the hold timer will reset and begin a new count down. This monitoring operation will continue indefinitely given a properly operating network connection with good signal integrity. If the line state monitor does not recognize sufficient unscrambled ID LE code-groups within the 722 period, the entire descrambler will be forced out of the cur rent state of synchronization and reset in order to re­acquire synchronization.

4.2.10 100BASE-TX Link Integrity Monitor

The 100 Base TX Lin k mon itor en sures that a v alid and st a ­ble link is established before enabling both the Transmit and Receive PCS layer.
Signal detect must be vali d for 395u s to allow the link mon­itor to enter the 'Lin k Up' state, and enable t he transmit and receive functions.

4.2.11 Bad SSD Detection

A Bad Start of Stream Delimiter (Bad SSD) is any transition from consecutive idle code-groups to non-idle code-groups which is not prefixed by the code-group pair /J/K.
If this condition is detected, the DP83849IF will assert RX_ER and present RXD[3:0] = 1110 to the MII for the cycles that correspond to received 5B code-groups until at least two IDLE code groups are detected. In addition, the False Carrier Sense Counter register (FCSCR) will be incremented by one.
Once at least tw o IDLE co de groups are detec ted, RX_ER and CRS become de-asserted.

4.3 100BASE-FX Operation

The DP83849IF provides IEEE 802.3 compliant 100BASE­FX operation. Configuration of FX mode is via strap option, or through the register interface.

4.2.8 Code-group Alignment

The code-group alignment module operates on unaligned 5-bit data from the descrambler (or, if the descrambler is bypassed, directly from the NRZI/NRZ decoder) and con verts it into 5B code-group data (5 bits). Code-group align­ment occurs after the J/K code-group pair is detected. Once the J/K code-group pair (11000 10001) is detected, subsequent data is aligned on a fixed boundary.

4.2.9 4B/5B Decoder

The code-group decoder functions as a look up table that translates incoming 5B code-groups into 4B nibbles. The code-group decoder first detects the J/K code-group pair preceded by IDLE code-groups and replaces the J/K with MAC preamble. Specifically, the J/K 10-bit code-group pair is replaced by the nibble pair (0101 0101). All subsequent 5B code-groups are converted to the corresponding 4B nibbles for the duration of the entire packet. This conver sion ceases upon the detection of the T/R code-group pair denoting the End of Stream Delimiter (ESD) or with the reception of a minimum of two IDLE code-groups.

4.3.1 100BASE-FX Transmit

In 100BASE-FX mode, the device Transmit Pins conn ect to an industry standard Fiber Transceiver with PECL signal­ling through a capaciti ve ly co upl ed circuit.
In FX mode, the de vice bypasses the Scrambl er and the MLT3 encoder. This allows for the transmission of serial ized 5B4B encoded NRZI data at 125MHz.
The only added functionality from 100BASE-TX is the sup­port for Far-End Fault data generation.

4.3.2 100BASE-FX Receive

In 100BASE-FX mode, the device Receive pins connect to an industry standard Fiber Transceiver with PECL signal ling through a capaciti ve ly co upl ed circuit.
In FX mode, the device bypasses MLT3 Decoder and the Descrambler. This allows for the reception of serialized 5B4B encoded NRZI data at 125MHz.
The only added functionality for 100BASE-FX from 100BASE-TX is the support of Far-End Fault detection.
-
-
38 www.national.com

4.3.3 Far-End Fault

Since 100BASE-FX does not support Auto-Negotiation, a Far-End Fault facility is included which allows for detection of link failures.
When no signal is being received as determined by the Signal Detect function, the device sends a Far-End Fault indication to the far-end peer. The Far-En d Fa ult indication is comprised of 3 or more re peatin g cycl es, eac h consis ting of 84 one’s f ollowed by 1 ze ro. Th e pattern is such that i t will not satisfy the 100BASE-X carrier sense mechanism, but is easily detected as the Fault indication. The pattern will be transparent to devices that do not support Far-End Fault.
The Far-End Fault detect ion pro cess co ntinuo usly mon itors the receive data stream for the Far-End Fault indication. When detected, the Link Monitor is forced to deassert Link status. This causes the device to transmit IDLE’s on its transmit path.

4.4 10BASE-T TRANSCEIVER MODULE

The 10BASE-T Transceiver Module is IEEE 802.3 compli­ant. It includes the receiver, transmitter, collision, heart­beat, loopback, jabber, and link integrity functions, as defined in the standard. An external filter is not required on the 10BASE-T interface since this is integrated inside the DP83849IF. This section focuses on the general 10BASE­T system level operation.

4.4.1 Operational Modes

The DP83849IF has two basic 10BASE-T operational modes:
— Half Duplex mode — Full Duplex mode
Full Dupl ex Mode
In Full Duplex mode the DP83849IF is capable of simulta­neously transmitting and receiving without asserting the collision signal. The DP83849IF's 10 Mb/s ENDEC is designed to encode and decode simultaneously.

4.4.2 Smart Squelch

The smart squelch is responsible for determining when valid data is present on the differential receive inputs. The DP83849IF implements an intelligent receive squelch to ensure that impulse noise on the receive inputs will not be mistaken for a valid signal. Smart squelch operation is independent of the 10BASE-T operational mode.
The squelch circuitry employs a combination of amplitude and timing measurements (as specified in the IEEE 802.3 10BSE-T standard) to determine the validity of data on the twisted pair inputs (refer to
The signal at the start of a packet is checked by the smart squelch and any pulses not exceeding the squelch level (either positive or negative, depending upon polarity) will be rejected. Once this first squelch level is overcome cor rectly, the opposite squelch level must then be exceeded within 150 ns. Finally the signal must again exceed the original squelch level within 150 ns to ensure that the input waveform will not be rejected. This checking procedure results in the loss of typically three preamble bits at the beginning of each packet.
Only after all these conditions have been satisfied will a control signal be generated to indicate to the remainder of the circuitry that valid data is present. At this time, the smart squelch circuitry is reset.
Valid data is considered to be present until the squelch level has not been generated for a time longer than 150 ns, indicating the End of Packet. Once good data has been detected, the squelch levels are reduced to minimize the effect of noise causing premature End of Packet detection.

4.4.3 Collision Detection and SQE

When in Half Duplex, a 10BASE-T collision is detected when the receive and transmit channels are active simulta neously. Collisions are reported by the COL signal on the MII. Collisions are also reported when a jabber condition is detected.
The COL signal remai ns set for the d uration of the c ollis ion. If the PHY is receiving when a collision is detected it is reported immediately (through the COL pin).
When heartbeat is enabled, approximately 1 µs after the transmission of each packet, a Signal Quality Error (SQE) signal of approximately 10-bit times is generated to indi cate successful transmission. SQE is reported as a pulse on the COL signal of the MII.
The SQE test is inhibited when the PHY is set in full duplex mode. SQE can also be inhibited by setting the HEARTBEAT_DIS bit in the 10BTSCR register.

4.4.4 Carrier Sense

Carrier Sense (CRS) may be as ser t ed d ue to rec eiv e activ­ity once valid data is detected via the squelch function.
For 10 Mb/s Half Duplex operation, CRS is asserted during either packet transmission or reception.
For 10 Mb/s Full Duplex operation, CRS is asserted only during receive activity.
CRS is deasserted following an end of packet.

4.4.5 Normal Link Pulse Detection/Generation

The link pulse generator produces pulses as defined in the IEEE 802.3 10BASE-T standard. Each link pulse is nomi­nally 100 ns in duration and transmitted every 16 ms in the absence of transmit data.
Link pulses are used to check the integrity of the connec­tion with the remote end. If valid link pulses are not received, the link detector disables the 10BASE-T twisted pair transmitter, receiver and collision detection functions.
When the link integrity function is disabled (FORCE_LINK_10 of the 10 BTSC R re gis te r), a g ood link is forced and the 10BASE-T transceiver will operate regard less of the presence of link pulses.
-
-
-
Once disabled by the Jabber function, the transmitter stays disabled for the entire time that the ENDEC module's inter nal transmit enable is asserted. This signal has to be de­asserted for approximately 500 ms (the “unjab” time) before the Jabber function re-enables the transmit outputs.
The Jabber function is only relevant in 10BASE-T mode.

4.4.7 Automatic Link Polarity Detection and Correcti on

The DP83849IF's 10BASE-T transceiver module incorpo­rates an automatic link polarity detection circuit. When three consecutive inverted link pulses are received, bad polarity is reported.
A polarity reversal can be c aus ed by a wi ring error at eith er end of the cable, usually at the Main Distribution Frame (MDF) or patc h panel in the wiring closet.
The bad polarity conditi on is la tched in the 10BT SCR regis ­ter. The DP83849IF's 10BASE-T transceiver module cor­rects for this error internally and will continue to decode received data correctly. This eliminates the need to correct the wiring error immediately.

4.4.8 Transmit and Receive Filtering

External 10BASE-T filters are not required when using the DP83849IF, as the required signal conditioning is inte grated into the device.
Only isolation transformers and impedance matching resis­tors are required for the 10BASE-T transmit and receive interface. The internal transmit filtering ensures that all the harmonics in the transmit signal are attenuated by at least 30 dB.

4.4.9 Transmitter

The encoder begins operation when the Transmit Enable input (TX_EN) goes high and converts NRZ data to pre­emphasized Manchester data for the transceiver. For the duration of TX_EN, the serialized Transmit Data (TXD) is encoded for the transmit-driver pair (PMD Output Pair). TXD must be valid on the rising edge of Transmit Clock (TX_CLK). Transmission ends when TX_EN deasserts. The last transition is always positive; it occurs at the center of the bit cell if the last bit is a one, or at the end of the bit cell if the last bit is a zero.

DP83849IF

4.4.6 Jabber Function

The jabber function monitors the DP83849IF's output and disables the transmitte r if it attempts to transmit a pac ket of longer than legal siz e. A ja bbe r timer monitors the transm it ter and disables the transmission if the transmitter is active for approximately 85 ms.

4.4.10 Receiver

5.3 ESD Protection

Typically, ESD precautions are predominantly in effect when handling the devices or board before being installed in a system. In those cases, strict handling procedures need be implemented during the manufacturing process to greatly reduce the occurrences of catastrophic ESD events. After the system is assembled, internal compo
-
nents are less sensitive from ESD events. The network interface pins are more susceptible to ESD
events.

5.6 Power Down/Interrupt

The Power Down and Interrupt functions are multiplexed on pin 18 and pin 44 of the device. By default, this pin func tions as a power down input and the interrupt function is disabled. Setting bit 0 (INT_OE) of MICR (11h) will config­ure the pin as an active low interrupt output. Ports A and B can be powered down individually, using the separate PWRDOWN_INT_A and PWRDOWN_INT_B pins.

Alternatively, the device can be configured to ini tialize into a Power Down state by use of an external pull­down resistor on the PWRDOWN_INT pin. Since the device will still respond to management register accesses, setting the INT_OE bit in the MICR register will disable the PWRDOWN_INT input, allowing the device to exit the Power Down state.

5.6.2 Interrupt Mechanisms

Since each port has a separate interrupt pin, the interrupts can be connected individually or may be combined in a wired-OR fashion. If the interrupts share a single connec tion, each port status should be checked following an inter­rupt.
The interrupt function is controlled via register access. All interrupt sources are disabled by default. Setting bit 1 (INTEN) of MICR (11h) will enable interrupts to be output, dependent on the interrupt mask set in the lower byte of the MISR (12h). The PWRDOWN_INT pin is asynchro nously asserted low when an interrupt condition occurs. The source of the interrupt can be determined by reading the upper byte of the MISR. One or more bits in the MISR will be set, denoting all currently pending interrupts. Read ing of the MISR clears ALL pending interrupts.
Example: To generate an interrupt on a change of link sta­tus or on a change of energy detect power state, the steps would be:
— Write 0003h to MICR to set INTEN and INT_OE — Write 0060h to MISR to set ED_INT_EN and
LINK_INT_EN
— Monitor PWRDOWN_INT pin
When PWRDOWN_INT pin asserts low, the user would read the MISR register to see if the ED_INT or LINK_INT bits are set, i.e. which source caused the interrupt. After reading the MISR, the interrupt bits should clear and the PWRDOWN_INT pin will deassert.

5.7 Energy Detect Mode

When Energy Detect is enabled and there is no activity on the cable, the DP83849IF will remain in a low power mode while monitoring the transmission line. Activity on the line will cause the DP83849IF to go through a normal power up sequence. Regardless of cable activity, the DP83849IF will occasionally wake up the transmitter to put ED pulses on the line, but will otherwise draw as little power as possible. Energy detect functionality is controlled via register Energy Detect Control (EDCR), address 1Dh.

5.8 Link Diagnostic Capabilities

The DP83849IF contains several system diagnostic capa­bilities for evaluating link quality and detecting potential cabling faults in Twisted Pair cabling. Software configura tion is available through the Link Diagnostics Registers ­Page 2 which can be selected via Page Select Register (PAGESEL), address 13h. These capabilities include:
— Linked Cable Status — Link Quality Monitor — TDR (Time Domain Reflectometry) Cable Diagnostics
-

5.8.1 Linked Cable Status

In an active conne ction wi th a valid link s tatu s, the f ollow ing diagnostic capabilities are available:
— Polarity reversal — Cable swap (MDI vs MDIX) detection — 100Mb Cable Length Estimation — Frequency offset relative to link partner — Cable Signal Quality Estimation
5.8.1.1 Polarity Reversal
The DP83849IF detects polarity reversal by detecting neg­ative link pulses. The Polarity indication is available in bit 12 of the PHYSTS (10h) or bit 4 of the 10BTSCR (1Ah). Inverted polarity indicates the positive and negative con ductors in the receive pair are swapped. Since polarity is corrected by the receiver, this does not necessarily indicate a functional problem in the cable.
Since the polarity indication is dependent on link pulses from the link partner, polarity indication is only valid in 10Mb modes of operation, or in 100Mb Auto-Negotiated mode. Polarity indication is not available in 100Mb forced mode of operation or in a parallel detected 100Mb mode.
5.8.1.2 Cable Swap Indication
As part of Auto-Negotiation, the DP83849IF has the ability (using Auto-MDIX) to automatically detect a cable with swapped MDI pairs and select the appropriate pairs for transmitting and receiving data. Normal operation is termed MDI, while crossed operation is MDIX. The MDIX status can be read from bit 14 of the PHYSTS (10h).
5.8.1.3 100MB Cable Length Estimation
The DP83849IF provides a method of estimating cable length based on electrical characteristics of the 100Mb Link. This essentially provides an effective cable length rather than a measurement of the physical cable length. The cable length estimation is only available in 100Mb mode of operation with a valid Link status. The cable length estimation is available at the Link Diagnostics Reg isters - Page 2, register 100Mb Length Detect (LEN100_DET), address 14h.
5.8.1.4 Frequency Offset Relative to Link Partner
As part of the 100Mb clock recovery process, the DSP implementation provides a frequency control parameter. This value may be used to indicate the frequency offset of the device relative to the lin k p artner. This operation is only available in 100Mb operation with a valid link status. The frequency offset can be determined using the register 100Mb Frequency Offset Indication (FREQ100), address 15h, of the Link Diagnostics Registers - Page 2.
Two different versions of the Frequency Offset may be monitored through bits [7:0] of register FREQ100 (15h). The first is the long-term Frequency Offset. The second is the current Frequency Control value, which includes short­term phase adjustments and can provide information on the amount of jitter in the system.

DP83849IF
45 www.national.com
5.8.1.5 Cable Signal Quality Estimation
The cable signal quality estimator keeps a simple tracking of results of the DSP and can be used to generate an approximate Signal-to-Noise Ratio for the 100Mb receiver. This information is available to software through the Link Diagnostics Registers - Page 2: Variance Control (VAR_CTRL), address 1Ah and Data (VAR_DATA), address 1Bh.
The variance computation times (VAR_TIMER) can be chosen from the set of {2, 4, 6, 8} ms. The 32-bit variance sum can be read by two consecutive reads of the VAR_DATA register. This sum can be used to compute an SNR estimate by software using the following eq uation:
SNR = 10log10((37748736 * VAR_TIMER) / Variance).

5.8.2 Link Quality Monitor

The Link Quality Monitor allows a method to generate an alarm when the DSP adaption strays from a programmable window. This could occur due to changes in the cable which could indicate a potential problem. Software can program thresholds for the following DSP parameters to be used to interrupt the system:
— Digital Equalizer C1 Coefficient (DEQ C1)

5.8.3 TDR Cable Diagnostics

The DP83849IF implements a Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR) method of cable length measurement and evalua tion which can be used to evaluate a connected twisted pair cable. The TDR implementation involves sending a pulse out on either the Transmit or Receive conductor pair and observi ng the re sults on eit her pair. By obser ving the types and strength of ref lec tio ns on eac h p a ir, software can determine the following:
—Cable short — Cable open — Distance to fault — Identify which pair has a fault — Pair sk ew
This is especially useful for eliminating the transmitted pulse, but also may be used to look for multiple reflections.
-
5.8.3.3 TDR Control Interface
The TDR Control interface is implemented in the Li nk D ia g­nostics Registers - Page 2 through TDR Control (TDR_CTRL), address 16h and TDR Window (TDR_WIN), address 17h. The following basic controls are:
TDR Enable: Enable bit 15 of TDR_CTRL (16h) to allow
the TDR function. This bypasses normal operation and gives control of the CD10 and CD100 block to the TDR function.
TDR Send Pulse: Enable bit 11 of TDR _CTRL (16 h) to
send the TDR pulse and starts the TDR Mo nitor.
DP83849IF
The TDR cable diagnostics works best in certain condi­tions. For example, an unterminated cable provides a good reflection for measuring cable length, while a cable with an ideal term ina tio n to an unpowered partner ma y p ro vide no reflection at al l.
5.8.3.1 TDR Pulse Genera tor
The TDR implementation can send two types of TDR pulses. The first option is to send 50ns or 100ns link pulses fro m t he 10Mb Common Dr iv er. The sec o nd op t i on is to send pulses from the 100Mb Common Driver in 8ns increments up to 56ns in width. The 100Mb pulses will alternate between positive and negative pulses. The shorter pulses provide better ability to measure short cable lengths, especially since they will limit overlap between the transmitted pulse and a reflected pulse. The longer pulses may provide better measurements of long cable lengths.
In addition, if the pulse width is programmed to 0, no pulse will be sent, but monitor circuit will still be activated. This allows sampling of background data to provide a baseline for analysis.
5.8.3.2 TDR Pulse Monitor
The TDR function monitors data from the Analog to Digital Converter (ADC) to detect both peak values and values above a programmable threshold. It can be programmed to detect maximum or minimum values. In addition, it records the time, in 8ns intervals, at which the peak or threshold value first occurs.
The TDR monitor implements a timer that starts when the pulse is transmitted. A window may be enabled to qualify incoming data to look for response only in a desired range.
-
The following Transmit mode controls are available: — Transmit Mode: Enables use of 10Mb Link pulses fro m
the 10Mb Common Driver or da ta pulses from the 100Mb Common Driver by enabling TDR 100Mb, bit 14 of TDR_CRTL (16h).
Transmit Pulse Width: Bits [10:8] of TDR_CTRL (16h)
allows sending of 0 to 7 c lo ck wid th p uls es . Ac tua l p uls ­es are dependent on the transmit mode. If Pulse Width is set to 0, then no pulse will be sent.
Transmit Channel Select: The transmitter can send
pulses down either the transmit pair or the receive pair by enabling bit 13 of TDR_CTRL (16h). Default value is to select the transmit pair.
The following Receive mode controls are available: — Min/Max Mode Select: Bit 7 of TDR_CTRL (16h) con-
trols the TDR Monitor operation. In default mode, the monitor will detect maximum (positive) values. In Min mode, the monitor will detect minimum (negative) val ues.
Receive Channel Select: The receiver can mo nitor ei-
ther the transmit pair or the receive pair by enabling bit 12 of TDR_CTRL (16h). Default value is to select the transmit pair.
Receive Window: The receiver can monitor receive
data within a programmable w indow using the TDR Win dow Register (TDR_WIN), address 17h. The window is controlled by two regi ster values: TDR Start Windo w, bits [15:8] of TDR_WIN (17h) and TDR Stop Window, bits [7:0] of TDR_WIN (17h). The TDR Start Window indi cates the first clock to start sampling. The TDR Stop Window indicates the last clock to sample. By default, the full window is enabled, with Start set to 0 and Stop set to 255. The window range is in 8ns clock i ncrements, so the maximum window size is 2048ns.

5.8.3.4 TDR Results
The TDR function monitors data from the Analog to Digital Converter (ADC) to detect both peak values and values above a programmable threshold. It can be programmed to detect maximum or minimum values. In addition, it records the time, in 8ns intervals, at which the peak or threshold value firs t occu rs. Th e resul ts of a TDR peak and threshold measurement are available in the TDR Peak Measurement Register (TDR_PEAK), address 18h and TDR Threshold Measurement Register (TDR_THR), address 19h. The thresho ld measurem ent may be a m ore accurate method of measuring the length for longer cables to provide a better indication of the start of the received pulse, rather than the peak value.
Software utilizing the TDR function should implement an algorithm to send TDR pulses and evaluate results. Multi ple runs should be us ed to best qualify any rece iv ed pul ses as multiple reflections could exist. In addition, when moni toring the transmitting pair, the window feature should be used to disqualify the transmitted pulse. Multiple runs may also be used to average the values providing more accu rate results.
Actual distance measurements are dependent on the velocity of prop agatio n of the c able. The delay value is ty p ically on the order of 4.6 to 4.9 ns/m.

6.0 Reset Operatio n

The DP83849IF includes an internal power-on reset (POR) function and does not need to be explicitly reset for normal operation after power up. If required during normal opera tion, the device can be reset by a hardware or software reset.

6.1 Hardware Reset

A hardware reset is accomplished by applying a low pulse (TTL level), with a duration of at least 1 RESET_N pin. This will reset the device such that all regis­ters will be reinitialized to default values and the hardware configuration val ues wil l be re-la tc hed into the device (simi lar to the power-up/reset operation).
µs, to the

6.2 Full Software Reset

A full-chip software reset is accomplished by setting the reset bit (bit 15) of the Basic Mode Control Register
-
-
(BMCR). The period from the point in time when the reset bit is set to the point in time when software reset has con cluded is approximately 1 µs.
The software reset will reset the device such that all regis­ters will be reset to defau lt v alu es and the h ardw a re co nfi g­uration values will be maintained. Software driver code must wait 3 further serial MII operations with the DP83849IF.
µs following a software reset before allowing

6.3 Soft Reset

A partial software reset can be initiated by setting the Soft Reset bit (bit 9) in the PHYCR2 Register. Setting this bit will reset all transmit and receive operations, but will not reset the register space. All register configurations will be pre served. Register space will remain available following a Soft Reset.

process is complete. The configuration is re-strapped.
14 LOOPBACK 0, RW Loopback:
1 = Loopback enabled. 0 = Normal operation. The loopback functio n enables MII transmit dat a to be routed to the MII
receive data path. Setting this bit may cause the descram bler to lose synchroni zation and
produce a 500 µs “dead ti me ” before any valid data will appear at the MII receive outputs.

1 = 100 Mb/s. 0 = 10 Mb/s.
Strap, RW Auto-Negotiation Enable:
Strap controls initial value at reset. If FX is enabled (FX_EN = 1), then this bit will be reset to 0. 1 = Auto-Negotiation Enabled - bits 8 and 13 of this register are ig-
nored when this bit is set. 0 = Auto-Negotiati on Disabled - bits 8 and 13 determine t he port speed
and duplex mode.
1 = Power down. 0 = Normal operation. Setting this bit powers down the PHY. Only the register block is en-
abled durin g a power down condition. This bit is OR’d with the input from the PWRDOWN_INT pin . When the acti ve low PWRDO WN_INT pin is asserted, this bit will be set.
1 = Isolates the Port fro m t he M II with the exception of the se rial ma n­agement.
0 = Normal operation.
0, RW/SC Restart Auto-Negotiation:
-
1 = Restart Auto-Negotiation. Re-initiates the Auto-Negotiation pro­cess. If Auto-Negotiati on is disabled (bit 12 = 0), this bit is ig nored. This bit is self-clearing and will retu rn a val ue of 1 until Auto-Negotiation is initiated, whereupo n it will self-clear. Opera tion of the Auto-Negotiati on process is not affected by the management entity clearing this bit.
0 = Normal operation.
When auto-negotiatio n is disabled wri ting to this bit allows the port Du­plex capability to be selected.
1 = Full Duplex operation. 0 = Half Duplex operati on.

Setting this bit to a 1 enables reading of current parameter values
and initiates sampl ing of the p arameter valu e. The param eter to be
read is selected by the LQ_PARAM_SEL bits.
Setting this bit will ca use a wr ite to the Thres hold re giste r selec ted
by LQ_PARAM_SEL and LQ_THR_SEL. The data written is con-
tained in LQ_THR_DATA. This bit will always read back as 0.
This 3-bit field selec ts the Link Quality Parameter . This field is used
for sampling current pa rameter values as well as for reads/ writes to
Threshold values. The following encodings are available:
