D Supports Connection to CAT5 Cable
description/ordering information
The TSB41BA3A-EP provides the digital and
analog transceiver functions needed to implement a three-port node in a cable-based IEEE
1394 network. Each cable port incorporates two
differential line transceivers. The transceivers
include circuitry to monitor the line conditions as
needed for determining connection status, for
initialization and arbitration, and for packet
reception and transmission. The TSB41BA3A-EP
interfaces with a link-layer controller (LLC), such
as the TSB82AA2, TSB12LV21, TSB12LV26,
TSB12LV32,
TSB42AA4,
TSB42AB4,
TSB12LV01B, or TSB12LV01C. It can also be
connected via cable port to an integrated 1394
Link + PHY layer such as the TSB43AB2.

The TSB41BA3A-EP is powered by a single 3.3-V supply. The core voltage supply is supplied by an internal
voltage regulator to the PLLVDD-CORE and DVDD-CORE terminals. To protect the phase-locked loop (PLL)
from noise, the PLLVDD-CORE terminals must be separately decoupled from the DVDD-CORE terminals. The
PLLVDD-CORE terminals are decoupled with 1-μF and smaller decoupling capacitors and the DVDD-CORE
terminals are separately decoupled with 1-μF and smaller decoupling capacitors. The separation between
DVDD-CORE and PLLVDD-CORE must be implemented by separate power supply rails or planes.
The TSB41BA3A-EP may be powered by dual supplies, a 3.3-V supply for I/O and a core voltage supply. The
core voltage supply to the PLLVDD-CORE and DVDD-CORE terminals must meet the requirements in the
recommended operating conditions section of this data sheet. The PLLVDD-CORE terminals must be
separated from the DVDD-CORE terminals, the PLLVDD-CORE terminals are decoupled with 1-μF and smaller
decoupling capacitors, and the DVDD-CORE terminals separately decoupled with 1-μF and smaller decoupling
capacitors. The separation between DVDD-CORE and PLLVDD-CORE can be implemented by separate power
supply rails, or by a single power supply rail, where the DVDD-CORE and PLLVDD-CORE are separated by
a filter network to keep noise from the PLLVDD-CORE supply.
The TSB41BA3A-EP requires an external 49.152-MHz crystal to generate a reference clock. The external clock
drives an internal phase-locked loop (PLL), which generates the required reference signal. This reference signal
provides the clock signals that control transmission of the outbound encoded information. A 49.152-MHz clock
signal is supplied by the PHY to the associated LLC for synchronization of the two devices and is used for
resynchronization of the received data when operating the PHY-link interface in compliance with the IEEE
1394a-2000 standard. A 98.304-MHz clock signal is supplied by the PHY to the associated LLC for
synchronization of the two devices when operating the PHY-link interface in compliance with the
IEEE 1394b-2002 standard. The power down (PD) function, when enabled by asserting the PD terminal high,
stops operation of the PLL.

TSB41BA3A-EP
IEEE 1394b THREE-PORT CABLE TRANSCEIVER/ARBITER
SGLS253B—OCTOBER 2004—REVISED MAY 2011
description (continued)
Data bits to be transmitted through the cable ports are received from the LLC on 2, 4, or 8 parallel paths
(depending on the requested transmission speed and PHY-link interface mode of operation). They are latched
internally, combined serially, encoded, and transmitted at 98.304, 122.78, 196.608, 245.76, 393.216, or
491.52 Mbps (referred to as S100, S100B, S200, S200B, S400, or S400B speed, respectively) as the outbound
information stream.
The PHY-link interface can follow either the IEEE 1394a-2000 protocol or the IEEE 1394b-2002 protocol. When
using a 1394a-2000 LLC such as the TSB12LV26, the BMODE terminal must be deasserted. The PHY-link
interface then operates in accordance with the legacy 1394a-2000 standard. When using a 1394b LLC such
as the TSB82AA2, the BMODE terminal must be asserted. The PHY-link interface then conforms to the
1394b-2002 standard.
The cable interface can follow either the IEEE 1394a-2000 protocol or the 1394b protocol on all ports. The mode
of operation is determined by the interface capabilities of the ports being connected. When any of the three ports
is connected to a 1394a-2000-compliant device, the cable interface on that port operates in the 1394a-2000
data-strobe mode at a compatible S100, S200, or S400 speed. When a bilingual port is connected to a
1394b-compliant node, the cable interface on that port operates per the 1394b-2002 standard at S100B, S200B,
or S400B speed. The TSB41BA3A-EP automatically determines the correct cable interface connection method
for the bilingual ports.
NOTE:
The BMODE terminal does not select the cable interface mode of operation. The BMODE terminal
selects the PHY-link interface mode of operation and affects the arbitration modes on the cable.
When the BMODE terminal is deasserted, the PHY-link interface is placed in 1394a-2000 mode and
BOSS arbitration is disabled. When the BMODE terminal is asserted, the PHY-link interface is
placed in 1394b-2002 mode and BOSS arbitration is enabled.
During packet reception, the serial data bits are split into 2-, 4-, or 8-bit parallel streams (depending on the
indicated receive speed and the PHY-link interface mode of operation), resynchronized to the local system
clock, and sent to the associated LLC. The received data is also transmitted (repeated) on the other connected
and active cable ports.
Both the twisted pair A (TPA) and the twisted pair B (TPB) cable interfaces incorporate differential comparators
to monitor the line states during initialization and arbitration when connected to a 1394a-2000-compliant device.
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 1394a-mode arbitration and sets the speed of the next packet transmission. In addition, the TPB channel
monitors the incoming cable common-mode voltage on the TPB pair for the presence of the remotely supplied
twisted pair bias (TPBIAS) voltage.
When connected to a 1394a-2000-compliant node, the TSB41BA3A-EP provides a 1.86-V nominal bias voltage
at the TPBIAS terminal for port termination. The PHY contains three independent TPBIAS circuits (one for each
port). This bias voltage, when seen through a cable by a remote receiver, indicates the presence of an active
connection. This bias voltage source must be stabilized by an external filter capacitor of 1 μF.
The line drivers in the TSB41BA3A-EP are designed to work with external 112-Ω termination resistor networks
in order to match the 110-Ω cable impedance. One termination network is required at each end of a twisted-pair
cable. Each network is composed of a pair of series-connected ~56-Ω resistors. The midpoint of the pair of
resistors that is connected to the TPA terminals is connected to its corresponding TPBIAS voltage terminal. The
midpoint of the pair of resistors that is directly connected to the TPB terminals is coupled to ground through a
parallel RC network with recommended values of 5 kΩ and 270 pF. The values of the external line-termination
resistors are designed to meet the standard specifications when connected in parallel with the internal receiver
circuits. A precision external resistor connected between the R0 and R1 terminals sets the driver output current,
along with other internal operating currents.

TSB41BA3A-EP
IEEE 1394b THREE-PORT CABLE TRANSCEIVER/ARBITER
SGLS253B—OCTOBER 2004—REVISED MAY 2011
description (continued)
When the power supply of the TSB41BA3A-EP is off while the twisted-pair cables are connected, the
TSB41BA3A-EP transmitter and receiver circuitry present a high-impedance signal to the cable that does not
load the device at the other end of the cable.
When the TSB41BA3A-EP is used without one or more of the ports brought out to a connector, the twisted-pair
terminals of the unused ports must be terminated for reliable operation. For each unused port, the preferred
method is for the port to be forced to the 1394a-only mode (data-strobe-only mode, DS), then the TPB+ and
TPB– terminals can be tied together and then pulled to ground; or the TPB+ and TPB– terminals can be
connected to the suggested normal termination network. The TPA+ and TPA– terminals of an unused port can
be left unconnected. The TPBIAS_SD terminal can be left unconnected.
If the port is left in bilingual (Bi) mode, then the TPB+ and TPB– terminals can be left unconnected or the TPB+
and TPB– terminals can be connected to the suggested normal termination network. The TPA+ and TPA–
terminals of an unused port can be left unconnected. The TPBIAS_SD terminal can be left unconnected.
If the port is left in a forced 1394b Beta-only (B1, B2, or B4) mode, then the TPB+ and TPB– terminals can be
left unconnected or the TPB+ and TPB– terminals can be connected to the suggested normal termination
network. The TPA+ and TPA– terminals of an unused port can be left unconnected. The TPBIAS_SD terminal
must be pulled to ground through a 1.2-kΩ or less resistor.
To operate a port as a 1394b bilingual port, the speed/mode selections terminals (S5_LKON, S4, S3, S2_PC0,
S1_PC1, and S0_PC2) need to be pulled to VCC or ground through a 1-kΩ resistor. The port must be operated
in the 1394b bilingual mode whenever a 1394b bilingual or a 1394b Beta-only connector is connected to the
port. To operate the port as a 1394a-only port, the speed/mode selection terminals must be configured correctly
to force 1394a-2000-only operation on that port. The only time the port must be forced to the data-strobe-only
mode is if the port is connected to a 1394a connector (either 6-pin, which is recommended, or 4-pin). This mode
is provided to ensure that 1394b signaling is never sent across a 1394a cable.
NOTE:
A bilingual port can only connect to a 1394b-only port that operates at S400b. It can not establish
a connection to a S200b or S100b port. A port that has been forced to S400b (B4) can connect to
a 1394b-only port at S400b (B4) or S200b (B2) or S100b (B1). A port that has been forced to S200b
can connect to a 1394b-only port at S200b or S100b. A port that has been forced to S100b can only
connect to a 1394b-only port at S100b.
The TESTM, SE, and SM terminals are used to set up various manufacturing test conditions. For normal
operation, the TESTM terminal must be connected to VDD through a 1-kΩ resistor. The SE and SM terminals
must be tied to ground through a 1-kΩ resistor.
Three package terminals are used as inputs to set the default value for three configuration status bits in the
self-ID packet. They can be pulled high through a 1-kΩ resistor or hardwired low as a function of the equipment
design. In some speed/mode selections the S2_PC0, S1_PC1, and S0_PC2 terminals indicate the default
power class status for the node (the need for power from the cable or the ability to supply power to the cable);
see Table 1. The contender bit in the PHY register set indicates that the node is a contender either for the
isochronous resource manager (IRM) or for the bus manager (BM). On the TSB41BA3A-EP, this bit can only
be set by a write to the PHY register set. If a node is a contender for IRM or BM, then the node software must
set this bit in the PHY register set.
The LPS (link power status) terminal works with the S5_LKON terminal to manage the power usage in the node.
The LPS signal from the LLC is used with the LCtrl bit (see Table 2 and Table 3 in the application information
section) to indicate the active/power status of the LLC. The LPS signal also resets, disables, and initializes the
PHY-LLC interface (the state of the PHY-LCC interface is controlled solely by the LPS input regardless of the
state of the LCtrl bit).

IEEE 1394b THREE-PORT CABLE TRANSCEIVER/ARBITER
SGLS253B—OCTOBER 2004—REVISED MAY 2011
description (continued)
NOTE:
The TSB41BA3A-EP does not have a cable-not-active (CNA) pin. To achieve a similar function, the
individual PHY ports can be set up to issue interrupts whenever the port changes state. If the LPS
pin is low, then this generates a link-on (LKON) output clock. Please see register bits PIE, PEI, and
WDIE along with the individual interrupt bits.
The LPS input is considered inactive if it remains low for more than the LPS_RESET time (see the LPS terminal
definition) and is considered active otherwise. When the TSB41BA3A-EP detects that the LPS input is inactive,
the PHY-LLC interface is placed into a low-power reset state in which the CTL and D outputs are held in the
logic 0 state and the LREQ input is ignored; however, the PCLK output remains active. If the LPS input remains
low for more than the LPS_DISABLE time (see the LPS terminal definition), then the PHY-LLC interface is put
into a low-power disabled state in which the PCLK output is also held inactive. The TSB41BA3A-EP continues
the necessary repeater functions required for normal network operation regardless of the state of the PHY-LLC
interface. When the interface is in the reset or disabled state and the LPS input is again observed active, the
PHY initializes the interface and returns to normal operation. The PHY-LLC interface is also held in the disabled
state during hardware reset. When the LPS terminal is returned to an active state after being sensed as having
entered the LPS_DISABLE time, the TSB41BA3A-EP issues a bus reset. This broadcasts the node self-ID
packet, which contains the updated L bit state (the PHY LLC now being accessible).
The PHY uses the S5_LKON terminal to notify the LLC to power up and become active. When activated, the
output S5_LKON signal is a square wave. The PHY activates the S5_LKON output when the LLC is inactive
and a wake-up event occurs. The LLC is considered inactive when either the LPS input is inactive, as described
above, or the LCtrl bit is cleared to 0. A wake-up event occurs when a link-on PHY packet addressed to this node
is received, or conditionally when a PHY interrupt occurs. The PHY deasserts the S5_LKON output when the
LLC becomes active (both LPS sensed as active and the LCtrl bit set to 1). The PHY also deasserts the
S5_LKON output when a bus reset occurs, unless a PHY interrupt condition exists which would otherwise cause
S5_LKON to be active. If the PHY is power-cycled and the power class is 0 through 4, then the PHY asserts
S5_LKON for approximately 167 μs or until both the LPS is active and the LCtrl bit is 1.

filtering capacitors are also recommended. The DVDD-3.3 terminals must be tied together at a
low-impedance point on the circuit board. These supply terminals are separated from the
PLLVDD-CORE, PLLVDD-3.3, DVDD-CORE, and AVDD terminals internal to the device to
provide noise isolation. The PLLVDD-3.3, AVDD, and DVDD-3.3 terminals must be tied together
with a low dc impedance connection on the circuit board.

DESCRIPTION
LCLK_PMC
CMOS

Link clock. Link-provided 98.304-MHz clock signal to synchronize data transfers from link to the PHY.
On hardware reset this terminal is sampled to determine the power management control (PMC)
mode.

‡ LCLK_PMC from LLC normally low during reset
In PMC mode, because no LLC is attached, the data lines (D7−D0) are available to indicate
power states. In PMC mode, the following signals are output:
− D0—port 0 cable-power disable (see Note 1)
− D1—port 1 cable-power disable (port in sleep or disabled)
− D2—port 2 cable-power disable (port in sleep or disabled)
− D6—All ports cable-power disable (all ports in sleep/disable) logical AND of bits 0−2
− D3−D5 and D7 are reserved for future use.
Note 1: The cable-power disable is asserted when the port is either:
− Hard-disabled (both the disabled and hard-disabled bits are set)
− Sleep-disabled (both the disabled and sleep_enable bits are set)
− Disconnected
− Asleep
− Connected in DS mode, but nonactive (that is, suspended or disabled)
Otherwise, the cable-powered disable output is deasserted (that is, cable power enabled) when
the port is dc-connected or active. A bus holder is built into this terminal.
LPS
CMOS
80
I
Link power status input. This terminal monitors the active/power status of the link-layer controller
(LLC) and controls the state of the PHY-LLC interface. This terminal must be connected to either the
VDD supplying the LLC through an approximately 1-kΩ resistor or to a pulsed output which is active
when the LLC is powered. A pulsed signal must be used when an isolation barrier exists between the
LLC and PHY (see Figure 8).
The LPS input is considered inactive if it is sampled low by the PHY for more than a LPS_RESET time
(~2.6 μs) and is considered active otherwise (that is, asserted steady high or an oscillating signal with
a low time less than 2.6 μs). The LPS input must be high for at least 22 ns to be observed as high by
the PHY.
When the TSB41BA3A-EP detects that the LPS input is inactive, it places the PHY-LLC interface into
a low-power reset state. In the reset state, the CTL (CTL0 and CTL1) and D (D0 to D7) outputs are
held in the logic 0 state and the LREQ input is ignored; however, the PCLK output remains active. If
the LPS input remains low for more than a LPS_DISABLE time (~26 μs), then the PHY-LLC interface
is put into a low-power disabled state in which the PCLK output is also held inactive.
The LLC state that is communicated in the self-ID packet is considered active only if both the LPS
input is active and the LCtrl register bit is set to 1. The LLC state that is communicated in the self-ID
packet is considered inactive if either the LPS input is inactive or the LCtrl register bit is cleared to 0.
LREQ
CMOS
3
I
LLC request input. The LLC uses this input to initiate a service request to the TSB41BA3A-EP. A bus
holder is built into this terminal.
PCLK
CMOS
5
O
PHY clock. Provides a 98.304-MHz clock signal, synchronized with data transfers, to the LLC when
the PHY-link interface is operating in the 1394b mode (BMODE asserted). PCLK output provides a
49.152-MHz clock signal, synchronized with data transfers, to the LLC when the PHY-link interface is
in legacy 1394a-2000 (BMODE input deasserted).

required for voltage regulation. The PLLVDD-CORE terminals must be separate from the
DVDD-CORE terminals. These supply terminals are separated from the DVDD-CORE, DVDD-3.3,
PLLVDD-3.3, and AVDD-3.3 terminals internal to the device to provide noise isolation.

PLL 3.3-V circuit power terminal. A combination of high-frequency decoupling capacitors near the
terminal are suggested, such as paralleled 0.1 μF and 0.001 μF. Lower frequency 10-μF filtering
capacitors are also recommended. This supply terminal is separated from the DVDD-CORE,
DVDD-3.3, PLLVDD-CORE, and AVDD-3.3 terminals internal to the device to provide noise
isolation. The DVDD-3.3 terminals must be tied together at a low-impedance point on the circuit
board. The PLLVDD-3.3, AVDD-3.3, and DVDD-3.3 terminals must be tied together with a low dc
impedance connection.
RESET
CMOS
75
I
Logic reset input. Asserting this terminal low resets the internal logic. An internal pullup resistor to
VDD is provided so only an external delay capacitor is required for proper power-up operation (see
power-up reset in the application information section). The RESET terminal also incorporates an
internal pulldown which is activated when the PD input is asserted high. This input is otherwise a
standard logic input and can also be driven by an open-drain-type driver.

the ports. See Table 1. Depending on the selection, these inputs may set the default value of the
power class indicated during self-ID.
Programming is done by tying the terminals high through a 1-kΩ or smaller resistor or by tying
directly to ground through a 1-kΩ or smaller resistor. Bus holders are built into these terminals.

through a 1-kΩ or smaller resistor. A bus holder is built into this terminal.
S5_LKON
CMOS
2
I/O
Port sleep/mode selection terminal 5 and link-on output. This terminal can be connected to the linkon input terminal of the LLC through a 1-kΩ resistor if the link-on input is available on the link layer.
On hardware reset, this terminal when used with the other five selection pins allows the user to select the speed and mode of the ports. See Table 1. A bus holder is built into this terminal.
After hardware reset, this terminal is the link-on output, which notifies the LLC or other power-up
logic to power up and become active. The link-on output is a square wave signal with a period of
approximately 163 ns (8 PCLK cycles) when active. The link-on output is otherwise driven low,
except during hardware reset when it is high impedance.
The link-on output is activated if the LLC is inactive (the LPS input inactive or the LCtrl bit cleared)
and when one of the following occrurs:
a) The PHY receives a link-on PHY packet addressed to this node
b) The PEI (port-event interrupt) register bit is 1, or
c) Any of the CTOI (configuration-time-out interrupt), CPSI (cable-power-status interrupt), or
d) The PHY is power-cycled and the power class is 0 through 4
Once activated, the link-on output is active until the LLC becomes active (both the LPS input active
and the LCtrl bit set). The PHY also deasserts the link-on output when a bus-reset occurs unless the
link-on output is otherwise active because one of the interrupt bits is set (that is, the link-on output is
active due solely to the reception of a link-on PHY packet).
In the case of power-cycling the PHY, the LKON signal must stop after 167 μs if the above conditions
have not been met.
NOTE: If an interrupt condition exists which otherwise causes the link-on output to be activated if
the LLC were inactive, then the link-on output is activated when the LLC subsequently becomes
inactive.

Twisted-pair bias output and signal detect input. This provides the 1.86-V nominal bias voltage
needed for proper operation of the twisted-pair cable drivers and receivers, and for signaling to the
remote nodes that there is an active cable connection in 1394a-2000 mode. Each of these
terminals, except for an unused port, must be decoupled with a 1-μF capacitor to ground. For the
unused port, this terminal can be left unconnected.
When a port is configured as a Beta-mode port (B1, B2, B4) this terminal becomes an input and
must be high when a valid signal is present. For optical transceivers, the signal detect of the
transceiver must be connected to this terminal. The input is an LVCMOS level input.

internal register configuration
The TSB41BA3A-EP has 16 accessible internal registers. The configuration of the registers at addresses 0h
through 7h (the base registers) is fixed, whereas the configuration of the registers at addresses 8h through Fh
(the paged registers) depends on which one of eight pages, numbered 0h through 7h, is currently selected. The
selected page is set in base register 7h. Note that while this register set is compatible with 1394a-2000 register
sets, some fields have been redefined, and this register set contains additional fields.
Table 2 shows the configuration of the base registers, and Table 3 gives the corresponding field descriptions.
The base register field definitions are unaffected by the selected page number.
A reserved register or register field (marked as Reserved or Rsvd in the following register configuration tables)
is read as 0, but is subject to future usage. All registers in address pages 2 through 6 are reserved.

Table 3. Base Register Field Descriptions
FIELD
SIZE
TYPE
DESCRIPTION
Physical ID
6
Rd
This field contains the physical address ID of this node determined during self-ID. The physical-ID is invalid after
a bus reset until the self-ID has completed as indicated by an unsolicited register 0 status transfer from the PHY
to the LLC.
R
1
Rd
Root. This bit indicates that this node is the root node. The R bit is reset to 0 by bus reset, and is set to 1 during
tree-ID if this node becomes root.
CPS
1
Rd
Cable-power status. This bit indicates the state of the CPS input terminal. The CPS terminal is normally tied to
serial bus cable power through a 400-kΩ resistor. A 0 in this bit indicates that the cable power voltage has
dropped below its threshold for ensured reliable operation.
RHB
1
Rd/Wr
Root-holdoff bit. This bit instructs the PHY to attempt to become root after the next bus reset. The RHB is reset to
0 by a hardware reset and is unaffected by a bus reset. If two nodes on a single bus have their root holdoff bit set,
then the result is not defined. To prevent two nodes from having their root-holdoff bit set, this bit must only be
written using a PHY configuration packet.
IBR
1
Rd/Wr
Initiate bus reset. This bit instructs the PHY to initiate a long (166 μs) bus reset at the next opportunity. Any
receive or transmit operation in progress when this bit is set completes before the bus reset is initiated. The IBR
bit is reset to 0 after a hardware reset or a bus reset. Care must be exercised when writing to this bit to not change
the other bits in this register. It is recommended that whenever possible a bus reset be initiated using the ISBR bit
and not the IBR bit.
Gap_Count
6
Rd/Wr
Arbitration gap count. This value sets the subaction (fair) gap, arb-reset gap, and arb-delay times. The gap count
can be set either by a write to the register, or by reception or transmission of a PHY_CONFIG packet. The gap
count is reset to 3Fh by hardware reset or after two consecutive bus resets without an intervening write to the gap
count register (either by a write to the PHY register or by a PHY_CONFIG packet). It is strongly recommended
that this field only be changed using PHY configuration packets.
Extended
3
Rd
Extended register definition. For the TSB41BA3A-EP, this field is 111b, indicating that the extended register set
is implemented.
Num_Ports
4
Rd
Number of ports. This field indicates the number of ports implemented in the PHY. For the TSB41BA3A-EP, this
field is 3.
PHY_Speed
3
Rd
PHY speed capability. This field is no longer used. For the TSB41BA3A-EP PHY, this field is 111b. Speeds for
1394b PHYs must be checked on a port-by-port basis.
SREN
1
Rd/Wr
Standby/restore enable. This bit when set to 1 enables the port to go into the standby reduced power state when
commanded by a Standby PHY command packet. This enable works for all ports of the local device. Note the
1394b standard only allows leaf (one port connected) nodes to be placed into standby mode.
Delay
4
Rd
PHY repeater data delay. This field indicates the worst-case repeater data delay of the PHY, expressed as
144+(delay × 20) ns. For the TSB41BA3A-EP, this field is Fh. The worst-case repeater delay for S100B is 538 ns.

SIZE

DESCRIPTION
LCtrl
FIELD
1
Rd/Wr
Link-active status control. This bit controls the indicated active status of the LLC reported in the self-ID packet.
The logical AND of this bit and the LPS active status is replicated in the L field (bit 9) of the self-ID packet. The
LLC bit in the node self-ID packet is set active only if both the LPS input is active and the LCtrl bit is set.
The LCtrl bit provides a software-controllable means to indicate the LLC self-ID active status in lieu of using the
LPS input terminal.
The LCtrl bit is set to 1 by hardware reset and is unaffected by bus-reset.
NOTE: The state of the PHY-LLC interface is controlled solely by the LPS input, regardless of the state of the
LCtrl bit. If the PHY-LLC interface is operational as determined by the LPS input being active, then received
packets and status information continue to be presented on the interface, and any requests indicated on the
LREQ input are processed, even if the LCtrl bit is cleared to 0.
C
1
Rd/Wr
Contender status. This bit indicates that this node is a contender for the bus or isochronous resource manager.
This bit is replicated in the c field (bit 20) of the self-ID packet. This bit is set to 0 on hardware reset. After
hardware reset, this bit can only be set via a software register write. This bit is unaffected by a bus reset.
Jitter
3
Rd
PHY repeater jitter. This field indicates the worst-case difference between the fastest and slowest repeater data
delay, expressed as (jitter+1) × 20 ns. For the TSB41BA3A-EP, this field is 0.
Pwr_Class
3
Rd/Wr
Node power class. This field indicates this node power consumption and source characteristics and is
replicated in the pwr field (bits 21−23) of the self-ID packet. This field is reset to the state specified by the S5−S0
input terminals on a hardware reset and is unaffected by a bus reset. See Table 1 and Table 10.
WDIE
1
Rd/Wr
Watchdog interrupt enable. This bit, if set to 1, enables the port event interrupt (PIE) bit to be set whenever
resume operations begin on any port, or when any of the CTOI, CPSI, or STOI interrupt bits are set and the link
interface is nonoperational. This bit is reset to 0 by hardware reset and is unaffected by bus reset.
ISBR
1
Rd/Wr
Initiate short arbitrated bus reset. This bit, if set to 1, instructs the PHY to initiate a short (1.3 μs) arbitrated bus
reset at the next opportunity. This bit is reset to 0 by a bus reset. It is recommended that short bus reset is the
only reset type initiated by software. IEC 61883-6 requires that a node initiate short bus resets to minimize any
disturbance to an audio stream.
NOTE: Legacy IEEE Std 1394-1995-compliant PHYs are not capable of performing short bus resets.
Therefore, initiation of a short bus reset in a network that contains such a legacy device results in a long bus
reset being performed.
CTOI
1
Rd/Wr
Configuration time-out interrupt. This bit is set to 1 when the arbitration controller times out during tree-ID start
and may indicate that the bus is configured in a loop. This bit is reset to 0 by hardware reset or by writing a 1 to
this register bit.
If the CTOI and WDIE bits are both set and the LLC is or becomes inactive, then the PHY activates the
S5_LKON output to notify the LLC to service the interrupt.
NOTE: If the network is configured in a loop, then only those nodes which are part of the loop generate a
configuration-time-out interrupt. All other nodes instead time out waiting for the tree-ID and/or self-ID process
to complete and then generate a state time-out interrupt and bus-reset. This bit is only set when the bus
topology includes 1394a nodes; otherwise, 1394b loop healing prevents loops from being formed in the
topology.
CPSI
1
Rd/Wr
Cable power status interrupt. This bit is set to 1 whenever the CPS input transitions from high to low indicating
that cable power may be too low for reliable operation. This bit is reset to 1 by hardware reset. It can be cleared
by writing a 1 to this register bit.
If the CPSI and WDIE bits are both set and the LLC is or becomes inactive, then the PHY activates the
S5_LKON output to notify the LLC to service the interrupt.
STOI
1
Rd/Wr
State-time-out interrupt. This bit indicates that a state time-out has occurred (which also causes a bus-reset to
occur). This bit is reset to 0 by hardware reset or by writing a 1 to this register bit.
If the STOI and WDIE bits are both set and the LLC is or becomes inactive, then the PHY activates the
S5_LKON output to notify the LLC to service the interrupt.
PEI
1
Rd/Wr
Port event interrupt. This bit is set to 1 on any change in the connected, bias, disabled, or fault bits for any port
for which the port interrupt enable (PIE) bit is set. Additionally, if the resuming port interrupt enable (WDIE) bit is
set, then the PEI bit is set to 1 at the start of resume operations on any port. This bit is reset to 0 by hardware
reset, or by writing a 1 to this register bit.

DESCRIPTION
EAA
FIELD
1
Rd/Wr
Enable accelerated arbitration. This bit enables the PHY to perform the various arbitration acceleration
enhancements defined in 1394a-2000 (ACK-accelerated arbitration, asynchronous fly-by concatenation, and
isochronous fly-by concatenation). This bit is reset to 0 by hardware reset and is unaffected by bus reset. This
bit has no effect when the device is operating in 1394b mode.
NOTE: The use of accelerated arbitration is completely compatible with networks containing legacy IEEE Std
1394-1995 PHYs. The EAA bit is set only if the attached LLC is 1394a-2000-compliant. If the LLC is not
1394a-2000 or 1394b-2002-compliant, then the use of the arbitration acceleration enhancements can interfere
with isochronous traffic by excessively delaying the transmission of cycle-start packets.
EMC
1
Rd/Wr
Enable multispeed concatenated packets. This bit enables the PHY to transmit concatenated packets of
differing speeds in accordance with the protocols defined in 1394a-2000. This bit is reset to 0 by hardware reset
and is unaffected by bus reset. This bit has no effect when the device is operating in 1394b mode.
NOTE: The use of multispeed concatenation is completely compatible with networks containing legacy IEEE
Std 1394-1995 PHYs. However, use of multispeed concatenation requires that the attached LLC be
1394a-2000 or 1394b-2002-compliant.
Max Legacy
SPD
3
Rd
Maximum legacy-path speed. This field holds the maximum speed capability of any legacy node (1394a-2000
or 1394-1995-compliant) as indicated in the self-ID packets received during bus initialization. Encoding is the
same as for the PHY_SPEED field (but limited to S400 maximum).
BLINK
1
Rd
Beta-mode link. This bit indicates that a Beta-mode-capable link is attached to the PHY. This bit is set by the
BMODE input terminal on the TSB41BA3A-EP.
Bridge
2
Rd/Wr
This field controls the value of the bridge (brdg) field in self-ID packet. The power reset value is 0. Details for
when to set these bits are specified in the IEEE 1394.1 bridging specification.
Page_Select
3
Rd/Wr
Page_Select. This field selects the register page to use when accessing register addresses 8 through 15. This
field is reset to 0 by a hardware reset and is unaffected by bus-reset.
Port_Select
4
Rd/Wr
Port_Select. This field selects the port when accessing per-port status or control (for example, when one of the
port status/control registers is accessed in page 0). Ports are numbered starting at 0. This field is reset to 0 by
hardware-reset and is unaffected by bus-reset.
The port status page provides access to configuration and status information for each of the ports. The port is
selected by writing 0 to the Page_Select field and the desired port number to the Port_Select field in base
register 7. Table 4 shows the configuration of the port status page registers, and Table 5 gives the corresponding
field descriptions. If the selected port is unimplemented, then all registers in the port status page are read as 0.

NOTE: The Con bit indicates that the port is physically connected to a peer PHY, but this does not
mean that the port is necessarily active. For 1394b coupled connections, the Con bit is set when a
port detects connection tones from the peer PHY and operating speed negotiation is completed.

Note: RxOK is set to false during the time that only connection tones are detected in Beta mode.
Dis
1
Rd/Wr
Port disabled control. If this bit is 1, then the selected port is disabled. The Dis bit is reset to 0 by
hardware reset (all ports are enabled for normal operation following hardware reset). The Dis bit is
not affected by bus-reset. When this bit is set, the port cannot become active; however, the port still
tones, but does not establish an active connection.
Negotiated_speed
3
Rd
Indicates the maximum speed negotiated between this PHY port and its immediately connected port.
The encoding is as for Max_port_speed. It is set on connection when in Beta_mode or to a value
established during self-ID when in 1394a-2000 mode.
PIE
1
Rd/Wr
Port event interrupt enable. When this bit is 1, a port event on the selected port sets the port event
interrupt (PEI) bit and notifies the link. This bit is reset to 0 by a hardware reset and is unaffected by
bus-reset.
Fault
1
Rd/Wr
Fault. This bit indicates that a resume-fault or suspend-fault has occurred on the selected port, and
that the port is in the suspended state. A resume-fault occurs when a resuming port fails to detect
incoming cable bias from its attached peer. A suspend-fault occurs when a suspending port
continues to detect incoming cable bias from its attached peer. Writing 1 to this bit clears the Fault
bit to 0. This bit is reset to 0 by hardware reset and is unaffected by bus reset.
Standby_fault
1
Rd/Wr
This bit is set to 1 if an error is detected during a standby operation and cleared on exit from the
standby state. A write of 1 to this bit or receipt of the appropriate remote command packet clears it
to 0. When this bit is cleared, standby errors are cleared.
Disscrm
1
Rd/Wr
Disable scrambler. If this bit is set to 1, then the data sent during packet transmission is not
scrambled.
B_Only
1
Rd
Beta-mode operation only. For the TSB41BA3A-EP, this bit is set to 0 for all ports when all ports are
programmed as bilingual or a combination of bilingual and data-strobe (1394a) only. If a port has
been programmed to be Beta-only at a selected speed (for example B1 is Beta-only S100), then this
bit is set to 1.
DC_connected
1
Rd
If this bit is set to 1, the port has detected a dc connection to the peer port by means of a 1394a-style
connect detect circuit.

DESCRIPTION
Max_port_speed
3
Rd/Wr
Max_port_speed
The maximum speed at which a port is allowed to operate in Beta mode. The encoding is:
000 = S100
001 = S200
010 = S400
011 = S800
100 = S1600
101 = S3200
110 = reserved
111 = reserved
An attempt to write to the register with a value greater than the hardware capability of the port results
in the maximum value that the port is capable of being stored in the register. The port uses this
register only when a new connection is established in the Beta mode when a port is programmed
as a Beta-only port. When a port is programmed as a bilingual port, it is fixed at S400 for the Beta
speed and is not updated by a write to this register. The power reset value is the maximum speed
capable of the port. Software can modify this value to force a port to train at a lower than maximum
(when in a Beta-only mode), but no lower than minimum speed.
LPP
(Local_plug_present)
1
Rd
This flag is set permanently to 1.
Cable_speed
3
Rd
This variable is set to the maximum speed that the port is capable of in Beta mode. The encoding
is the same as for Max_port_speed.
Connection_unreliable
1
Rd/Wr
If this bit is set to 1, then a Beta-mode speed negotiation has failed or synchronization has failed.
A write of 1 to this field resets the value to 0.
Beta_mode
1
Rd
Operating in Beta mode. If this bit is 1, the port is operating in Beta mode; it is equal to 0 otherwise
(that is, when operating in 1394a-2000 mode, or when disconnected). If Con is 1, RxOK is 1, and
Beta_mode is 0, then the port is active and operating in the 1394a-2000 mode.
Port_error
8
Rd/Wr
Incremented whenever the port receives an invalid code word, unless the value is already 255.
Cleared when read (including being read by means of a remote access packet). Intended for use
by a single bus-wide diagnostic program.
Sleep_Flag
1
Rd
This bit is set to 1 if the port is in the sleep state. The transition to the sleep state occurs only if the
port has been enabled for the sleep mode.
Sleep_enable
1
Rd/Wr
This bit is set to 1 if the port has been enabled for sleep mode. If SLPEN pin is sampled high during
reset, then this bit is set high for all ports. If sampled low, then it is 0. Software can individually enable
or disable sleep mode for a port by writing to this bit. Sleep mode operation is described in IDB−1394
specification. In PMC mode when no link is present, the sleep state of each port can be monitored
on the data lines as described in the Terminal Functions table entry for LCLK_PMC.
Loop_disable
1
Rd
This bit is set to 1 if the port has been placed in the loop-disable state as part of the loop-free build
process (the PHYs at either end of the connection are active, but if the connection itself were
activated, then a loop would exist). Cleared on bus reset and on disconnection.
In_standby
1
Rd
This bit is set to 1 if the port is in standby power-management state.
Hard_disable
1
Rd/Wr
No effect unless the port is disabled. If this bit is set to 1, the port does not maintain connectivity status
on an ac connection when disabled. The values of the Con and RxOK bits are forced to 0. This flag
can be used to force renegotiation of the speed of a connection. It can also be used to place the
device into a lower power state because when hard disabled, a port no longer tones to maintain
1394b ac-connectivity status.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
designing with PowerPAD devices
The TSB41BA3A-EP is housed in a high-performance, thermally enhanced, 80-terminal PFP PowerPAD
package. Use of the PowerPAD package does not require any special considerations except to note that the
thermal pad, which is an exposed die pad on the bottom of the device, is a metallic thermal and electrical
conductor. Therefore, if not implementing PowerPAD PCB features, the use of solder masks (or other assembly
techniques) might be required to prevent any inadvertent shorting by the exposed thermal pad of connection
etches or vias under the package. The recommended option, however, is not to run any etches or signal vias
under the device, but to have only a grounded thermal land as explained in the following paragraphs. Although
the actual size of the exposed die pad can vary, the maximum size required for the keepout area for the
80-terminal PFP PowerPAD package is 10 mm × 10 mm. The actual thermal pad size for the TSB41BA3A-EP
is 6 mm × 6 mm.
It is required that there be a thermal land, which is an area of solder-tinned copper, underneath the PowerPAD
package. The thermal land varies in size, depending on the PowerPAD package being used, the PCB
construction, and the amount of heat that needs to be removed. In addition, the thermal land might or might not
contain numerous thermal vias depending on PCB construction.
Other requirements for thermal lands and thermal vias are detailed in the Texas Instruments PowerPAD™
Thermally Enhanced Package application report, (SLMA002), available via the Texas Instruments Web pages
at URL: http://www.ti.com.
Figure 9. Example of a Thermal Land for the TSB41BA3A-EP PHY
For the TSB41BA3A-EP, this thermal land must be grounded to the low-impedance ground plane of the device.
This improves not only thermal performance but also the electrical grounding of the device. It is also
recommended that the device ground terminal landing pads be connected directly to the grounded thermal land.
The land size ought to be as large as possible without shorting the device signal terminals. The thermal land
can be soldered to the exposed thermal pad using standard reflow soldering techniques.
Although the thermal land can be electrically floated and configured to remove heat to an external heat sink,
it is recommended that the thermal land be connected to the low-impedance ground plane for the device. More
information can be obtained from the Texas Instruments application report PHY Layout, (SLLA020).

APPLICATION INFORMATION
using the TSB41BA3A-EP with a 1394-1995 or 1394a-2000 link layer
The TSB41BA3A-EP implements the PHY-LLC interface specified in the 1394b Supplement. This interface is
based on the interface described in Section 17 of IEEE 1394b-2002. When using an LLC that is compliant with
an IEEE 1394b-2002 interface, the BMODE input must be tied high.
The TSB41BA3A-EP also functions with a LLC that is compliant with the older 1394 standards. This interface
is compatible with both the older Annex J interface specified in the IEEE Std 1394-1995 (with the exception of
the Annex J isolation interfacing method) and the PHY-LLC interface specified in 1394a-2000. When using an
LLC compliant with an IEEE 1394b-2002 interface, the BMODE input must be tied low.
When the BMODE input is tied low, the TSB41BA3A-EP implements the PHY-LLC interface specified in the
1394a-2000 Supplement. This interface is based on the interface described in informative Annex J of IEEE Std
1394-1995, which is the interface used in the oldest Texas Instruments PHY devices. The PHY-LLC interface
specified in 1394a-2000 is compatible with the older Annex J. However, the TSB41BA3A-EP does not support
the Annex J isolation interfacing method. When implementing the 1394a-2000 interface, certain signals are not
used:
−
The PINT output (terminal 1) can be left open.
−
The LCLK_PMC input (terminal 7) must be tied directly to ground or through a pulldown resistor of ~1 kΩ
or less, unless the PMC mode is desired (see LCLK_PMC terminal description).
All other signals are connected to their counterparts on the 1394a link-layer controller. The PCLK output
corresponds to the SCLK input signal on most LLCs.
The 1394a-2000 Supplement includes enhancements to the Annex J interface that should be comprehended
when using the TSB41BA3A-EP with a 1394-1995 LLC device.
D A new LLC service request was added which allows the LLC to temporarily enable and disable
asynchronous arbitration accelerations. If the LLC does not implement this new service request, then the
arbitration enhancements must not be enabled (see the EAA bit in PHY register 5).
D The capability to perform multispeed concatenation (the concatenation of packets of differing speeds) was
added in order to improve bus efficiency (primarily during isochronous transmission). If the LLC does not
support multispeed concatenation, then multispeed concatenation must not be enabled in the PHY (see the
EMC bit in PHY register 5).
D In order to accommodate the higher transmission speeds expected in future revisions of the standard,
1394a-2000 extended the speed code in bus requests from 2 bits to 3 bits, increasing the length of the bus
request from 7 bits to 8 bits. The new speed codes were carefully selected so that new 1394a-2000 PHY
and LLC devices would be compatible, for speeds from S100 to S400, with legacy PHY and LLC devices
that use the 2-bit speed codes. The TSB41BA3A-EP correctly interprets both 7-bit bus requests (with 2-bit
speed code) and 8-bit bus requests (with 3-bit speed codes). Moreover, if a 7-bit bus request is immediately
followed by another request (for example, a register read or write request), then the TSB41BA3A-EP
correctly interprets both requests. Although the TSB41BA3A-EP correctly interprets 8-bit bus requests, a
request with a speed code exceeding S400 while in 1394a-2000 PHY-link interface mode results in the
TSB41BA3A-EP transmitting a null packet (data-prefix followed by data-end, with no data in the packet).

APPLICATION INFORMATION
power-up reset
To ensure proper operation of the TSB41BA3A-EP, the RESET terminal must be asserted low for a minimum
of 2 ms from the time that PHY power reaches the minimum required supply voltage and the input clock to the
PHY is valid. When using a passive capacitor on the RESET terminal to generate a power-on-reset signal, the
minimum reset time is ensured if the value of the capacitor satisfies the following equation (the value must be
no smaller than approximately 0.1 μF):
Cmin = 0.0077 x T + 0.085 + (external_oscillator_start-up_time x 0.05)
Where Cmin is the minimum capacitance on the RESET terminal in μF, T is the VDD ramp time, 10%–90%, in
ms, external_oscillator_start-up_time is the time from power applied to the external oscillator until the oscillator
outputs a valid clock in ms. If a crystal is used rather than an oscillator, then the external_oscillator_start-up_time
may be set to 0.
For example, with a 2-ms power ramp time and a 2-ms oscillator start-up time:
Cmin = 0.0077 x 2 + 0.085 + (2 x 0.05) = 0.2 μF
It is appropriate to select the nearest standard value capacitor that exceeds this value, for example 0.22 μF.
Or with a 2-ms power ramp time and a 49.152-MHz fundamental crystal:
Cmin = 0.0077 x 2 + 0.085 + (0 x 0.05) = 0.1 μF
crystal selection
The TSB41BA3A-EP and other Texas Instruments PHY devices are designed to use an external 49.152-MHz
crystal connected between the XI and XO terminals to provide the reference for an internal oscillator circuit. This
oscillator in turn drives a PLL circuit that generates the various clocks required for transmission and
resynchronization of data at the S100 through S400 media data rates.
A variation of less than ±100 ppm from nominal for the media data rates is required by IEEE Std 1394. Adjacent
PHYs can therefore have a difference of up to 200 ppm from each other in their internal clocks, and PHYs must
be able to compensate for this difference over the maximum packet length. Larger clock variations may cause
resynchronization overflows or underflows, resulting in corrupted packet data or even PHY lockup.
For the TSB41BA3A-EP, the PCLK output can be used to measure the frequency accuracy and stability of the
internal oscillator and PLL from which it is derived. When operating the PHY-LLC interface with a non-1394b
LLC, the frequency of the PCLK output must be within ±100 ppm of the nominal frequency of 49.152 MHz. When
operating the PHY-LLC interface with a 1394b LLC, the frequency of the PCLK output must be within ±100 ppm
of the nominal frequency of 98.304 MHz.
The following are some typical specifications for crystals used with the physical layers from Texas Instruments
in order to achieve the required frequency accuracy and stability:
D Crystal mode of operation: Fundamental
D Frequency tolerance at 25_C: Total frequency variation for the complete circuit is ±100 ppm. A crystal with
±30 ppm frequency tolerance is recommended for adequate margin.
D Frequency stability (over temperature and age): A crystal with ±30 ppm frequency stability is recommended
for adequate margin.

crystal selection (continued)
NOTE:
The total frequency variation must be kept below ±100 ppm from nominal with some allowance for
error introduced by board and device variations. Trade-offs between frequency tolerance and
stability can be made as long as the total frequency variation is less than ±100 ppm. For example,
the frequency tolerance of the crystal may be specified at 50 ppm, and the temperature tolerance
may be specified at 30 ppm to give a total of 80 ppm possible variation due to the oscillator alone.
Aging also contributes to the frequency variation.
D Load capacitance: For parallel resonant mode crystal circuits, the frequency of oscillation depends on the
load capacitance specified for the crystal. Total load capacitance (CL) is a function of not only the discrete
load capacitors, but also board layout and circuit. It may be necessary to iteratively select discrete load
capacitors until the PCLK output is within specification. It is recommended that load capacitors with a
maximum of ±5% tolerance be used.
As an example, for the OHCI + 41LV03 evaluation module (EVM) which uses a crystal specified for 12-pF
loading, load capacitors (C9 and C10 in Figure 10) of 16 pF each were appropriate for the layout of that particular
board. The load specified for the crystal includes the load capacitors (C9, C10), the loading of the PHY terminals
(CPHY), and the loading of the board itself (CBD). The value of CPHY is typically about 1 pF and CBD is typically
0.8 pF per centimeter of board etch; a typical board can have 3 pF to 6 pF or more. The load capacitors C9 and
C10 combine as capacitors in series so that the total load capacitance is:

Figure 10. Load Capacitance for the TSB41BA3A-EP PHY
NOTE:
The layout of the crystal portion of the PHY circuit is important for obtaining the correct frequency,
minimizing noise introduced into the PHY’s phase lock loop, and minimizing any emissions from
the circuit. The crystal and two load capacitors must be considered as a unit during layout. The
crystal and load capacitors must be placed as close as possible to one another while minimizing
the loop area created by the combination of the three components. Varying the size of the capacitors
may help in this. Minimizing the loop area minimizes the effect of the resonant current (IS) that flows
in this resonant circuit. This layout unit (crystal and load capacitors) must then be placed as close
as possible to the PHY XI and XO terminals to minimize trace lengths.

Figure 11. Recommended Crystal and Capacitor Layout
It is strongly recommended that part of the verification process for the design is to measure the frequency of
the PCLK output of the PHY. This should be done with a frequency counter with an accuracy of six digits or better.
If the PCLK frequency is more than the crystal’s tolerance from 49.152 MHz or 98.304 MHz, then the load
capacitance of the crystal can be varied to improve frequency accuracy. If the frequency is too high, add more
load capacitance; if the frequency is too low, decrease load capacitance. Typically, changes must be done to
both load capacitors (C9 and C10 above) at the same time, and both must be of the same value. Additional
design details and requirements can be provided by the crystal vendor.
bus reset
It is recommended, that whenever the user has a choice, the user should initiate a bus reset by writing to the
initiate short bus reset (ISBR) bit (bit 1 PHY register 0101b). Care must be taken to not change the value of any
of the other writable bits in this register when the ISBR bit is written to.
In the TSB41BA3A-EP, the initiate bus reset (IBR) bit can be set to 1 in order to initiate a bus reset and
initialization sequence; however, it is recommended to use the ISBR bit instead. The IBR bit is located in PHY
register 1 along with the root-holdoff bit (RHB) and gap-count register. As required by the 1394b Supplement,
this configuration maintains compatibility with older Texas Instruments PHY designs which were based on either
the suggested register set defined in Annex J of IEEE Std 1394-1995 or the 1394a-2000 Supplement.
Therefore, whenever the IBR bit is written, the RHB and gap-count register are also necessarily written.
It is recommended that the RHB and gap-count register only be updated by PHY configuration packets. The
TSB41BA3A-EP is 1394a- and 1394b-compliant, and therefore, both the reception and transmission of PHY
configuration packets cause the RHB and gap-count register to be loaded, unlike older IEEE Std
1394-1995-compliant PHYs which decode only received PHY configuration packets.
The gap-count register is set to the maximum value of 63 after two consecutive bus resets without an intervening
write to the gap-count register, either by a write to PHY register 1 or by a PHY configuration packet. This
mechanism allows a PHY configuration packet to be transmitted and then a bus reset to be initiated so as to
verify that all nodes on the bus have updated their RHBs and gap-count values, without having the gap-count
register set back to 63 by the bus reset. The subsequent connection of a new node to the bus, which initiates
a bus reset, then causes the gap-count register of each node to be set to 63. Note, however, that if a subsequent
bus reset is instead initiated by a write to register 1 to set the IBR bit, then all other nodes on the bus have their

APPLICATION INFORMATION
bus reset (continued)
Therefore, in order to maintain consistent gap counts throughout the bus, the following rules apply to the use
of the IBR bit, RHB, and gap count in PHY register 1:
D Following the transmission of a PHY configuration packet, a bus reset must be initiated in order to verify
that all nodes have correctly updated their RHBs and gap-count values and to ensure that a subsequent
new connection to the bus causes the gap-count register to be set to 63 on all nodes in the bus. If this bus
reset is initiated by setting the IBR bit to 1, then the RHB and gap-count register must also be loaded with
the correct values consistent with the just transmitted PHY configuration packet. In the TSB41BA3A-EP,
the RHB and gap-count register have been updated to their correct values on the transmission of the PHY
configuration packet, and so these values can first be read from register 1 and then rewritten.
D Other than to initiate the bus reset which must follow the transmission of a PHY configuration packet,
whenever the IBR bit is set to 1 in order to initiate a bus reset, the gap-count value must also be set to 63
so as to be consistent with other nodes on the bus, and the RHB must be maintained with its current value.
D The PHY register 1 must not be written to except to set the IBR bit. The RHB and gap-count register must
not be written without also setting the IBR bit to 1.
D To avoid these problems, all bus resets initiated by software must be initiated by writing the ISBR bit (bit
1 PHY register 0101b). Care must be taken to not change the value of any of the other writable bits in this
register when the ISBR bit is written to. Also, the only means to change the gap count of any node must
be by means of the PHY configuration packet, which changes all nodes to the same gap count.

PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION (1394a-2000 INTERFACE)
The TSB41BA3A-EP is designed to operate with an LLC such as the Texas Instruments TSB12LV21B,
TSB12LV26, TSB12LV32, TSB42AA4, or TSB12LV01B when the BMODE terminal is tied low. Details of
operation for the Texas Instruments LLC devices are found in the respective LLC data sheets. The following
paragraphs describe the operation of the PHY-LLC interface. This interface is formally defined in IEEE
1394a-2000, Section 5A.
The interface to the LLC consists of the PCLK, CTL0−CTL1, D0−D7, LREQ, LPS, and S5_LKON terminals on
the TSB41BA3A-EP, as shown in Figure 12.

Figure 12. PHY-LLC Interface
The PCLK terminal provides a 49.152-MHz interface system clock. All control and data signals are synchronized
to, and sampled on, the rising edge of PCLK. This terminal serves the same function as the SYSCLK terminal
of 1394a-2000-compliant PHY devices.
The CTL0 and CTL1 terminals form a bidirectional control bus, which controls the flow of information and data
between the TSB41BA3A-EP and LLC.
The D0−D7 terminals form a bidirectional data bus, which transfers status information, control information, or
packet data between the devices. The TSB41BA3A-EP supports S100, S200, and S400 data transfers over the
D0−D7 data bus. In S100 operation, only the D0 and D1 terminals are used; in S200 operation, only the D0−D3
terminals are used; and in S400 operation, all D0−D7 terminals are used for data transfer. When the
TSB41BA3A-EP is in control of the D0−D7 bus, unused Dn terminals are driven low during S100 and S200
operations. When the LLC is in control of the D0−D7 bus, unused Dn terminals are ignored by the
TSB41BA3A-EP.
The LREQ terminal is controlled by the LLC to send serial service requests to the PHY in order to request access
to the serial bus for packet transmission, read or write PHY registers, or control arbitration acceleration.
The LPS and S5_LKON terminals are used for power management of the PHY and LLC. The LPS terminal
indicates the power status of the LLC, and can be used to reset the PHY-LLC interface or to disable PCLK. The
S5_LKON terminal sends a wake-up notification to the LLC or external circuitry and indicates an interrupt to the
LLC when either LPS is inactive or the PHY register L bit is 0.
The TSB41BA3A-EP normally controls the CTL0−CTL1 and D0−D7 bidirectional buses. The LLC is allowed to
drive these buses only after the LLC has been granted permission to do so by the PHY.

PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION (1394a-2000 INTERFACE)
Four operations can occur on the PHY-LLC interface: link service request, status transfer, data transmit, and
data receive. The LLC issues a service request to read or write a PHY register, to request the PHY to gain control
of the serial bus in order to transmit a packet or to control arbitration acceleration.
The PHY can initiate a status transfer either autonomously or in response to a register read request from
the LLC.
The PHY initiates a receive operation whenever a packet is received from the serial bus.
The PHY initiates a transmit operation after winning control of the serial bus following a bus request by the LLC.
The transmit operation is initiated when the PHY grants control of the interface to the LLC.

For fair or priority access, the LLC sends the bus request (FairReq or PriReq) at least one clock after the
PHY-LLC interface becomes idle. If the CTL terminals are asserted to the receive state (10b) by the PHY, then
any pending fair or priority request is lost (cleared). Additionally, the PHY ignores any fair or priority requests
if the receive state is asserted while the LLC is sending the request. The LLC can then reissue the request one
clock after the next interface idle.
The cycle master node uses a priority bus request (PriReq) to send a cycle start message. After receiving or
transmitting a cycle start message, the LLC can issue an isochronous bus request (IsoReq). The PHY clears
an isochronous request only when the serial bus has been won.

PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION (1394a-2000 INTERFACE)
LLC service request (continued)
To send an acknowledge packet, the LLC must issue an immediate bus request (ImmReq) during the reception
of the packet addressed to it. This is required in order to minimize the idle gap between the end of the received
packet and the start of the transmitted acknowledge packet. As soon as the receive packet ends, the PHY
immediately grants control of the bus to the LLC. The LLC sends an acknowledgment to the sender unless the
header CRC of the received packet is corrupted. In this case, the LLC does not transmit an acknowledge, but
instead cancels the transmit operation and releases the interface immediately; the LLC must not use this grant
to send another type of packet. After the interface is released, the LLC can proceed with another request.
The LLC can make only one bus request at a time. Once the LLC issues any request for bus access (ImmReq,
IsoReq, FairReq, or PriReq), it cannot issue another bus request until the PHY indicates that the bus request
was lost (bus arbitration lost and another packet received), or won (bus arbitration won and the LLC granted
control). The PHY ignores new bus requests while a previous bus request is pending. All bus requests are
cleared on a bus reset.
For write register requests, the PHY loads the specified data into the addressed register as soon as the request
transfer is complete. For read register requests, the PHY returns the contents of the addressed register to the
LLC at the next opportunity through a status transfer. If a received packet interrupts the status transfer, then the
PHY continues to attempt the transfer of the requested register until it is successful. A write or read register
request can be made at any time, including while a bus request is pending. Once a read register request is made,
the PHY ignores further read register requests until the register contents are successfully transferred to the LLC.
A bus reset does not clear a pending read register request.
The TSB41BA3A-EP includes several arbitration acceleration enhancements, which allow the PHY to improve
bus performance and throughput by reducing the number and length of interpacket gaps. These enhancements
include autonomous (fly-by) isochronous packet concatenation, autonomous fair and priority packet
concatenation onto acknowledge packets, and accelerated fair and priority request arbitration following
acknowledge packets. The enhancements are enabled when the EAA bit in PHY register 5 is set.
The arbitration acceleration enhancements may interfere with the ability of the cycle master node to transmit
the cycle start message under certain circumstances. The acceleration control request is therefore provided
to allow the LLC to temporarily enable or disable the arbitration acceleration enhancements of the
TSB41BA3A-EP during the asynchronous period. The LLC typically disables the enhancements when its
internal cycle counter rolls over indicating that a cycle start message is imminent, and then re-enables the
enhancements when it receives a cycle start message. The acceleration control request can be made at any
time, however, and is immediately serviced by the PHY. Additionally, a bus reset or isochronous bus request
causes the enhancements to be re-enabled, if the EAA bit is set.

PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION (1394a-2000 INTERFACE)
status transfer
A status transfer is initiated by the PHY when there is status information to be transferred to the LLC. The PHY
waits until the interface is idle before starting the transfer. The transfer is initiated by the PHY asserting status
(01b) on the CTL terminals, along with the first two bits of status information on the D[0:1] terminals. The PHY
maintains CTL = Status for the duration of the status transfer. The PHY can prematurely end a status transfer
by asserting something other than status on the CTL terminals. This occurs if a packet is received before the
status transfer completes. The PHY continues to attempt to complete the transfer until all status information has
been successfully transmitted. At least one idle cycle occurs between consecutive status transfers.
The PHY normally sends just the first 4 bits of status to the LLC. These bits are status flags that are needed
by the LLC state machines. The PHY sends an entire 16-bit status packet to the LLC after a read register
request, or when the PHY has pertinent information to send to the LLC or transaction layers. The only defined
condition where the PHY automatically sends a register to the LLC is after self-ID, where the PHY sends the
physical-ID register that contains the new node address. All status transfers are either 4 or 16 bits unless
interrupted by a received packet. The status flags are considered to have been successfully transmitted to the
LLC immediately on being sent, even if a received packet subsequently interrupts the status transfer. Register
contents are considered to have been successfully transmitted only when all 8 bits of the register have been
sent. A status transfer is retried after being interrupted only if any status flags remain to be sent or if a register
transfer has not yet completed.
Table 20 shows the definition of the bits in the status transfer, and Figure 14 shows the timing.

status transfer (continued)
The sequence of events for a status transfer is as follows:
(a) Status transfer initiated. The PHY indicates a status transfer by asserting status on the CTL lines along with
the status data on the D0 and D1 lines (only 2 bits of status are transferred per cycle). Normally (unless
interrupted by a receive operation), a status transfer is either 2 or 8 cycles long. A 2-cycle (4-bit) transfer
occurs when only status information is to be sent. An 8-cycle (16-bit) transfer occurs when register data is
to be sent in addition to any status information.
(b) Status transfer terminated. The PHY normally terminates a status transfer by asserting idle on the CTL lines.
The PHY can also interrupt a status transfer at any cycle by asserting receive on the CTL lines to begin a
receive operation. The PHY asserts at least one idle cycle between consecutive status transfers.
receive
Whenever the PHY detects the data-prefix state on the serial bus, it initiates a receive operation by asserting
receive on the CTL terminals and a logic 1 on each of the D bus terminals (data-on indication). The PHY
indicates the start of a packet by placing the speed code (encoded as shown in Table 21) on the D terminals,
followed by packet data. The PHY holds the CTL terminals in the receive state until the last symbol of the packet
has been transferred. The PHY indicates the end of packet data by asserting idle on the CTL terminals. All
received packets are transferred to the LLC. Note that the speed code is part of the PHY-LLC protocol and is
not included in the calculation of CRC or any other data protection mechanisms.
It is possible for the PHY to receive a null packet, which consists of the data-prefix state on the serial bus followed
by the data-end state, without any packet data. A null packet is transmitted whenever the packet speed exceeds
the capability of the receiving PHY, or whenever the LLC immediately releases the bus without transmitting any
data. In this case, the PHY asserts receive on the CTL terminals with the data-on indication (all 1s) on the D
bus terminals, followed by Idle on the CTL terminals, without any speed code or data being transferred. In all
cases, in normal operation, the TSB41BA3A-EP sends at least one data-on indication before sending the speed
code or terminating the receive operation.
The TSB41BA3A-EP also transfers its own self-ID packet, transmitted during the self-ID phase of bus
initialization, to the LLC. This packet it transferred to the LLC just as any other received self-ID packet.

The sequence of events for a normal packet reception is as follows:
(a) Receive operation initiated. The PHY indicates a receive operation by asserting receive on the CTL lines.
Normally, the interface is idle when receive is asserted. However, the receive operation can interrupt a
status transfer operation that is in progress so that the CTL lines can change from status to receive without
an intervening idle.
(b) Data-on indication. The PHY can assert the data-on indication code on the D lines for one or more cycles
preceding the speed code.
(c) Speed code. The PHY indicates the speed of the received packet by asserting a speed code on the D lines
for one cycle immediately preceding packet data. The link decodes the speed code on the first receive cycle
for which the D lines are not the data-on code. If the speed code is invalid or indicates a speed higher that
that which the link is capable of handling, then the link must ignore the subsequent data.
(d) Receive data. Following the data-on indication (if any) and the speed code, the PHY asserts packet data
on the D lines with receive on the CTL lines for the remainder of the receive operation.
(e) Receive operation terminated. The PHY terminates the receive operation by asserting idle on the CTL lines.
The PHY asserts at least one idle cycle following a receive operation.

PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION (1394a-2000 INTERFACE)
transmit
When the LLC issues a bus request through the LREQ terminal, the PHY arbitrates to gain control of the bus.
If the PHY wins arbitration for the serial bus, then the PHY-LLC interface bus is granted to the LLC by asserting
the grant state (11b) on the CTL terminals for one PCLK cycle, followed by idle for one clock cycle. The LLC
then takes control of the bus by asserting either idle (00b), hold (01b), or transmit (10b) on the CTL terminals.
Unless the LLC is immediately releasing the interface, the LLC can assert the idle state for at most one clock
before it must assert either hold or transmit on the CTL terminals. The hold state is used by the LLC to retain
control of the bus while it prepares data for transmission. The LLC can assert hold for zero or more clock cycles
(that is, the LLC need not assert hold before transmit). The PHY asserts data-prefix on the serial bus during this
time.
When the LLC is ready to send data, the LLC asserts transmit on the CTL terminals as well as sending the first
bits of packet data on the D lines. The transmit state is held on the CTL terminals until the last bits of data have
been sent. The LLC then asserts either hold or idle on the CTL terminals for one clock cycle, and then asserts
idle for one additional cycle before releasing the interface bus and putting the CTL and D terminals in a
high-impedance state. The PHY then regains control of the interface bus.
The hold state asserted at the end-of-packet transmission indicates to the PHY that the LLC requests to send
another packet (concatenated packet) without releasing the serial bus. The PHY responds to this concatenation
request by waiting the required minimum packet separation time and then asserting grant as before. This
function can be used to send a unified response after sending an acknowledge, or to send consecutive
isochronous packets during a single isochronous period. Unless multispeed concatenation is enabled, all
packets transmitted during a single bus ownership must be of the same speed (because the speed of the packet
is set before the first packet). If multispeed concatenation is enabled (when the EMSC bit of PHY register 5 is
set), then the LLC must specify the speed code of the next concatenated packet on the D terminals when it
asserts hold on the CTL terminals at the end of a packet. The encoding for this speed code is the same as the
speed code that precedes received packet data as given in Table 21.
After sending the last packet for the current bus ownership, the LLC releases the bus by asserting idle on the
CTL terminals for two clock cycles. The PHY begins asserting idle on the CTL terminals one clock after sampling
idle from the link. Note that whenever the D and CTL terminals change direction between the PHY and the LLC,
an extra clock period is allowed so that both sides of the interface can operate on registered versions of the
interface signals.

transmit (continued)
The sequence of events for a normal packet transmission is as follows:
(a) Transmit operation initiated. The PHY asserts grant on the CTL lines followed by idle to hand over control
of the interface to the link so that the link can transmit a packet. The PHY releases control of the interface
(that is, it places its CTL and D outputs in a high-impedance state) following the idle cycle.
(b) Optional idle cycle. The link can assert at most one idle cycle preceding assertion of either hold or transmit.
This idle cycle is optional; the link is not required to assert idle preceding either hold or transmit.
(c) Optional hold cycles. The link can assert hold for up to 47 cycles preceding assertion of transmit. These
hold cycle(s) are optional; the link is not required to assert hold preceding transmit.
(d) Transmit data. When data is ready to be transmitted, the link asserts transmit on the CTL lines along with
the data on the D lines.
(e) Transmit operation terminated. The transmit operation is terminated by the link asserting hold or idle on the
CTL lines. The link asserts hold to indicate that the PHY is to retain control of the serial bus in order to
transmit a concatenated packet. The link asserts idle to indicate that packet transmission is complete and
the PHY can release the serial bus. The link then asserts idle for one more cycle following this hold or idle
cycle before releasing the interface and returning control to the PHY.
(f) Concatenated packet speed code. If multispeed concatenation is enabled in the PHY, then the link asserts
a speed code on the D lines when it asserts hold to terminate packet transmission. This speed code
indicates the transmission speed for the concatenated packet that is to follow. The encoding for this
concatenated packet speed code is the same as the encoding for the received packet speed code (see
Table 21). The link may not concatenate an S100 packet onto any higher-speed packet.
(g) After regaining control of the interface, the PHY asserts at least one idle cycle before any subsequent status
transfer, receive operation, or transmit operation.

transmit (continued)
The sequence of events for a cancelled/null packet transmission is as follows:
(a) Transmit operation initiated. PHY asserts grant on the CTL lines followed by idle to hand over control of the
interface to the link.
(b) Optional idle cycle. The link can assert at most one idle cycle preceding assertion of hold. This idle cycle
is optional; the link is not required to assert idle preceding hold.
(c) Optional hold cycles. The link can assert hold for up to 47 cycles preceding assertion of idle. These hold
cycle(s) are optional; the link is not required to assert hold preceding idle.
(d) Null transmit termination. The null transmit operation is terminated by the link asserting two cycles of idle
on the CTL lines and then releasing the interface and returning control to the PHY. Note that the link can
assert idle for a total of three consecutive cycles if it asserts the optional first idle cycle but does not assert
hold. It is recommended that the link assert three cycles of idle to cancel a packet transmission if no hold
cycles are asserted. This ensures that either the link or PHY controls the interface in all cycles.
(e) After regaining control of the interface, the PHY asserts at least one idle cycle before any subsequent status
transfer, receive operation, or transmit operation.
interface reset and disable
The LLC controls the state of the PHY-LLC interface using the LPS signal. The interface can be placed into a
reset state, a disabled state, or be made to initialize and then return to normal operation. When the interface
is not operational (whether reset, disabled, or in the process of initialization), the PHY cancels any outstanding
bus request or register read request, and ignores any requests made via the LREQ line. Additionally, any status
information generated by the PHY is not queued and does not cause a status transfer on restoration of the
interface to normal operation.
The LPS signal can be either a level signal or a pulsed signal, depending on whether the PHY-LLC interface
is a direct connection or is made across an isolation barrier. When an isolation barrier exists between the PHY
and LLC, the LPS signal must be pulsed. In a direct connection, the LPS signal can be either a pulsed or a level
signal. Timing parameters for the LPS signal are given in Table 22.

The maximum value for tRESTORE does not apply when the PHY-LLC interface is disabled, in which case an indefinite time can elapse before
LPS is reasserted. Otherwise, in order to reset but not disable the interface, it is necessary that the LLC ensure that LPS is deasserted for less
than tLPS_DISABLE.
NOTES: 1. All voltage values, except differential I/O bus voltages, are with respect to network ground.The specified tLPSL and tLPSH times are
worst-case values appropriate for operation with the TSB41BA3A-EP. These values are broader than those specified for the same
parameters in the 1394a-2000 Supplement (that is, an implementation of LPS that meets the requirements of 1394a-2000 operates
correctly with the TSB41BA3A-EP).
2. A pulsed LPS signal must have a duty cycle (ratio of tLPSH to cycle period) in the specified range to ensure proper operation when
using an isolation barrier on the LPS signal (for example, as shown in Figure 8).

The LLC requests that the interface be reset by deasserting the LPS signal and terminating all bus and request
activity. When the PHY observes that LPS has been deasserted for tLPS_RESET, it resets the interface. When
the interface is in the reset state, the PHY sets its CTL and D outputs in the logic 0 state and ignores any activity
on the LREQ signal. Figure 19 shows the timing for interface reset.

Figure 19. Interface Reset
The sequence of events for resetting the PHY-LLC interface is as follows:
(a) Normal operation. Interface is operating normally, with LPS asserted, PCLK active, status and packet data
reception and transmission via the CTL and D lines, and request activity via the LREQ line. In the above
diagram, the LPS signal is shown as a nonpulsed level signal. However, it is permissible to use a pulsed
signal for LPS in a direct connection between the PHY and LLC; a pulsed signal is required when using an
isolation barrier.
(b) LPS deasserted. The LLC deasserts the LPS signal and, within 1 μs, terminates any request or interface
bus activity, places its CTL and D outputs into a high-impedance state, and drives its LREQ output low.
(c) Interface reset. After tLPS_RESET time, the PHY determines that LPS is inactive, terminates any interface
bus activity, and drives its CTL and D outputs low. The PHY-LLC interface is now in the reset state.
(d) Interface restored. After the minimum tRESTORE time, the LLC can again assert LPS active. When LPS is
asserted, the interface is initialized as described in the following paragraphs.
If the LLC continues to keep the LPS signal deasserted, it then requests that the interface be disabled. The PHY
disables the interface when it observes that LPS has been deasserted for tLPS_DISABLE. When the interface is
disabled, the PHY sets its CTL and D outputs as previously stated for interface reset, but also stops PCLK
activity. The interface is also placed into the disabled condition on a hardware reset of the PHY. Figure 20 shows
the timing for the interface disable.
When the interface is disabled, the PHY enters a low-power state if none of its ports are active.

reception and transmission via the CTL and D lines, and request activity via the LREQ line.
(b) LPS deasserted. The LLC deasserts the LPS signal and, within 1 μs, terminates any request or interface
bus activity, places its CTL and D outputs into a high-impedance state, and drives its LREQ output low.
(c) Interface reset. After tLPS_RESET time, the PHY determines that LPS is inactive, terminates any interface
bus activity, and drives its CTL and D outputs low. The PHY-LLC interface is now in the reset state.
(d) Interface disabled. If the LPS signal remains inactive for tLPS_DISABLE time, then the PHY terminates PCLK
activity by driving the PCLK output low. The PHY-LLC interface is now in the disabled state.
After the interface has been reset, or reset and then disabled, the interface is initialized and restored to normal
operation when LPS is reasserted by the LLC. Figure 21 shows the timing for interface initialization.

Figure 21. Interface Initialization
The sequence of events for initialization of the PHY-LLC is as follows:
(a) LPS reasserted. After the interface has been in the reset or disabled state for at least the minimum tRESTORE
time, the LLC causes the interface to be initialized and restored to normal operation by reasserting the LPS
signal. (In Figure 21, the interface is shown in the disabled state with PCLK low inactive. However, the
interface initialization sequence described here is also executed if the interface is merely reset but not yet
disabled.)
(b) PCLK activated. If the interface is disabled, then the PHY reactivates its PCLK output when it detects that
LPS has been reasserted. If the PHY has entered a low-power state, then it takes between 5.3 ms and
7.3 ms for PCLK to be restored; if the PHY is not in a low-power state, then the PCLK is restored within 60
ns. The PCLK output is a 50% duty cycle square wave with a frequency of 49.152 MHz ±100 ppm (period
of 20.345 ns). During the first seven cycles of PCLK, the PHY continues to drive the CTL and D terminals
low. The LLC is also required to drive its CTL and D outputs low for one of the first six cycles of PCLK but
otherwise to place its CTL and D outputs in a high-impedance state. The LLC continues to drive its LREQ
output low during this time.
(c) Receive indicated. On the eighth PCLK cycle following reassertion of LPS, the PHY asserts the receive
state on the CTL lines and the data-on indication (all 1s) on the D lines for one or more cycles.
(d) Initialization complete. The PHY asserts the idle state on the CTL lines and logic 0 on the D lines. This
indicates that the PHY-LLC interface initialization is complete and normal operation can commence. The
PHY now accepts requests from the LLC via the LREQ line.

PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION (1394b INTERFACE)
The TSB41BA3A-EP is designed to operate with a LLC such as the Texas Instruments TSB82AA2 when the
BMODE terminal is tied high. Details of operation for the Texas Instruments LLC devices are found in the
respective LLC data sheets. The following paragraphs describe the operation of the PHY-LLC interface. This
interface is formally specified in the IEEE 1394b-2002 standard.
The interface to the LLC consists of the PCLK, LCLK_PMC, CTL0−CTL1, D0−D7, LREQ, PINT, LPS, and
S5_LKON terminals on the TSB41BA3A-EP, as shown in Figure 22.

Figure 22. PHY-LLC Interface
The LCLK_PMC terminal provides a clock signal to the PHY. The LLC derives this clock from the PCLK signal
and is phase-locked to the PCLK signal. All LLC to PHY transfers are synchronous to LCLK_PMC.
The PCLK terminal provides a 98.304-MHz interface system clock. All control, data, and PHY interrupt signals
are synchronized to the rising edge of PCLK.
The CTL0 and CTL1 terminals form a bidirectional control bus, which controls the flow of information and data
between the TSB41BA3A-EP and LLC.
The D0−D7 terminals form a bidirectional data bus, which transfers status information, control information, or
packet data between the devices. The TSB41BA3A-EP supports S400B, S200B, and S100B data transfers over
the D0−D7 data bus. In S400B, S200B, and S100B operation, all Dn terminals are used.
The LREQ terminal is controlled by the LLC to send serial service requests to the PHY in order to request access
to the serial bus for packet transmission, read or write PHY registers, or control arbitration acceleration. All data
on LREQ is synchronous to LCLK_PMC.
The LPS and S5_LKON terminals are used for power management of the PHY and LLC. The LPS terminal
indicates the power status of the LLC and can be used to reset the PHY-LLC interface or to disable PCLK. The
S5_LKON terminal sends a wake-up notification to the LLC and indicates an interrupt to the LLC when either
LPS is inactive or the PHY register L bit is 0.
The PINT terminal is used by the PHY for the serial transfer of status, interrupt, and other information to the LLC.

PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION (1394b INTERFACE)
The TSB41BA3A-EP normally controls the CTL0−CTL1 and D0−D7 bidirectional buses. The LLC is allowed to
drive these buses only after the LLC has been granted permission to do so by the PHY.
Four operations can occur on the PHY-LLC interface: link service request, status transfer, data transmit, and
data receive. The LLC issues a service request to read or write a PHY register or to request the PHY to gain
control of the serial bus in order to transmit a packet.
The PHY can initiate a status transfer either autonomously or in response to a register read request from the
LLC.
The PHY initiates a receive operation whenever a packet is received from the serial bus.
The PHY initiates a transmit operation after winning control of the serial bus following a bus request by the LLC.
The transmit operation is initiated when the PHY grants control of the interface to the LLC.
Table 23 and Table 24 show the encoding of the CTL0−CTL1 bus.

For fair or priority access, the LLC sends a bus request at least one clock after the PHY-LLC interface becomes
idle. The PHY queues all bus requests and can queue one request of each type. If the LLC issues a different
request of the same type, then the new request overwrites any nonserviced request of that type. On the receipt
(CTL terminals are asserted to the receive state, 10b) of a packet, queued requests are not cleared by the PHY.
The cycle master node uses a cycle start request (Cyc_Start_Req) to send a cycle start message. After
receiving or transmitting a cycle start message, the LLC can issue an isochronous bus request (IsoReq). The
PHY clears an isochronous request only when the serial bus has been won.
To send an acknowledge packet, the LLC must issue an immediate bus request (Immed_Req) during the
reception of the packet addressed to it. This is required in order to minimize the idle gap between the end of
the received packet and the start of the transmitted acknowledge packet. As soon as the received packet ends,
the PHY immediately grants control of the bus to the LLC. The LLC sends an acknowledgment to the sender
unless the header CRC of the received packet is corrupted. In this case, the LLC does not transmit an
acknowledge, but instead cancels the transmit operation and releases the interface immediately; the LLC must
not use this grant to send another type of packet. After the interface is released the LLC can proceed with
another request.
For write register requests, the PHY loads the specified data into the addressed register as soon as the request
transfer is complete. For read register requests, the PHY returns the contents of the addressed register to the
LLC at the next opportunity through a PHY status transfer. A write or read register request can be made at any
time, including while a bus request is pending. Once a read register request is made, the PHY ignores further
read register requests until the register contents are successfully transferred to the LLC. A bus reset does not
clear a pending read register request.

status transfer
A status transfer is initiated by the PHY when status information is to be transferred to the LLC. Two types of
status transfers can occur: bus status transfer and PHY status transfer. Bus status transfers send the following
status information: bus reset indications, subaction and arbitration reset gap indications, cycle start indications,
and PHY interface reset indications. PHY status transfers send the following information: PHY interrupt
indications, unsolicited and solicited PHY register data, bus initialization indications, and PHY-link interface
error indications. The PHY uses a different mechanism to send the bus status transfer and the PHY status
transfer.
Bus status transfers use the CTL0−CTL1 and D0−D7 terminals to transfer status information. Bus status transfers can occur during idle periods on the PHY-link interface or during packet reception. When the status transfer
occurs, a single PCLK cycle of status information is sent to the LLC. The information is sent such that each individual Dn terminal conveys a different bus status transfer event. During any bus status transfer, only one status
bit is set. If the PHY-link interface is inactive, then the status information is not sent. When a bus reset on the
serial bus occurs, the PHY sends a bus reset indication (via the CTLn and Dn terminals), cancels all packet
transfer requests, sets asynchronous and isochronous phases to even, forwards self-ID packets to the link, and
sends an unsolicited PHY register 0 status transfer (via the PINT terminal) to the LLC. In the case of a PHY
interface reset operation, the PHY-link interface is reset on the following PCLK cycle.

status transfer (continued)
The PHY status transfers use the PINT terminal to serially send status information to the LLC as shown in
Figure 25. The PHY status transfers (Table 34) can occur at any time during normal operation. The PHY uses
the PHY_INTERRUPT PHY status transfer when required to interrupt the LLC due to a configuration time-out,
a cable power failure, a port interrupt, or an arbitration time-out. When transferring PHY register contents, the
PHY uses either the solicited or the unsolicited register read status transfer. The unsolicited register 0 contents
are passed to the LLC only during initialization of the serial bus. After any PHY-link interface initialization, the
PHY sends a PHY status transfer indicating whether or not a bus reset occurred during the inactive period of
the PHY-link interface. If the PHY receives an illegal request from the LLC, then the PHY issues an
INTERFACE_ERROR PHY status transfer.

Most PHY status transfers are 5 bits long. The transfer consists of a start bit (always 1), followed by a request
type (see Table 34), and lastly followed by a stop bit (always 0). The only exception is when the transfer of a
register contents occurs. Solicited and unsolicited PHY register read transfers are 17 bits long and include the
additional information of the register address and the data contents of the register (see Table 35).

PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION (1394b INTERFACE)
receive
When the PHY detects the data-prefix state on the serial bus, it initiates a receive operation by asserting receive
on the CTL terminals and a logic 1 on each of the D terminals (data-on indication). The PHY indicates the start
of a packet by placing the speed code (encoded as shown in Table 36) on the D terminals, followed by packet
data. The PHY holds the CTL terminals in the receive state until the last symbol of the packet has been
transferred. The PHY indicates the end of packet data by asserting idle on the CTL terminals. All received
packets are transferred to the LLC. Note that the speed code is part of the PHY-LLC protocol and is not included
in the calculation of CRC or any other data protection mechanisms.
The PHY may optionally send status information to the LLC at anytime during the data-on indication. Only bus
status transfer information can be sent during a data-on indication. The PHY holds the CTL terminals in the
status state for 1 PCLK cycle and modifies the D terminals to the correct status state. Note that the status transfer
during the data-on indication does not need to be preceded or followed by a data-on indication.
It is possible for the PHY to receive a null packet, which consists of the data-prefix state on the serial bus followed
by the data-end state, without any packet data. A null packet is transmitted whenever the packet speed exceeds
the capability of the receiving PHY, or whenever the LLC immediately releases the bus without transmitting any
data. In this case, the PHY asserts receive on the CTL terminals with the data-on indication (all 1s) on the D
terminals, followed by Idle on the CTL terminals, without any speed code or data being transferred. In all cases,
in normal operation, the TSB41BA3A-EP sends at least one data-on indication before sending the speed code
or terminating the receive operation.
The TSB41BA3A-EP also transfers its own self-ID packet, transmitted during the self-ID phase of bus
initialization, to the LLC. This packet it transferred to the LLC just as any other received self-ID packet.

Figure 27. Normal Packet Reception Timing With Optional Bus Status Transfer
The sequence of events for a normal packet reception is as follows:
(a) Receive operation initiated. The PHY indicates a receive operation by asserting receive on the CTL lines.
Normally, the interface is idle when receive is asserted. However, the receive operation can interrupt a
status transfer operation that is in progress so that the CTL lines can change from status to receive without
an intervening idle.
(b) Data-on indication. The PHY may assert the data-on indication code on the D lines for one or more cycles
preceding the speed code. The PHY may optionally send a bus status transfer during the data-on indication
for one PCLK cycle. During this cycle, the PHY asserts status (01b) on the CTL lines while sending status
information on the D lines.
(c) Speed code. The PHY indicates the speed of the received packet by asserting a speed code on the D lines
for one cycle immediately preceding packet data. The link decodes the speed code on the first receive cycle
for which the D lines are not the data-on code. If the speed code is invalid or indicates a speed higher that
that which the link is capable of handling, then the link must ignore the subsequent data.
(d) Receive data. Following the data-on indication (if any) and the speed code, the PHY asserts packet data
on the D lines with receive on the CTL lines for the remainder of the receive operation.
(e) Receive operation terminated. The PHY terminates the receive operation by asserting idle on the CTL lines.
The PHY asserts at least one idle cycle following a receive operation.

The sequence of events for a null packet reception is as follows:

Normally, the interface is idle when receive is asserted. However, the receive operation can interrupt a
status transfer operation that is in progress so that the CTL lines can change from status to receive without
an intervening idle.
(b) Data-on indication. The PHY asserts the data-on indication code on the D lines for one or more cycles.
(c) Receive operation terminated. The PHY terminates the receive operation by asserting idle on the CTL lines.
The PHY asserts at least one idle cycle following a receive operation.

transmit
When the LLC issues a bus request through the LREQ terminal, the PHY arbitrates to gain control of the bus.
If the PHY wins arbitration for the serial bus, then the PHY-LLC interface bus is granted to the LLC by asserting
the grant state (11b) on the CTL terminals and the grant type on the D terminals for one PCLK cycle, followed
by idle for one clock cycle. The LLC then takes control of the bus by asserting either idle (00b), hold (11b), or
transmit (01b) on the CTL terminals. If the PHY does not detect a hold or transmit state within eight PCLK cycles,
then the PHY takes control of the PHY-link interface. The hold state is used by the LLC to retain control of the
bus while it prepares data for transmission. The LLC can assert hold for zero or more clock cycles (that is, the
LLC need not assert hold before transmit). During the hold state, the LLC is expected to drive the D lines to 0.
The PHY asserts data-prefix on the serial bus during this time.
When the LLC is ready to send data, the LLC asserts transmit on the CTL terminals as well as sending the first
bits of packet data on the D lines. The transmit state is held on the CTL terminals until the last bits of data have
been sent. The LLC then asserts either hold or idle on the CTL terminals for one clock cycle. If the hold is
asserted, then the hold is immediately followed by one clock cycle of idle. The link then releases the PHY-link
interface by putting the CTL and D terminals in a high-impedance state. The PHY then regains control of the
PHY-link interface.

Figure 29. Transmit Packet Timing With Optional Link Request
The hold state asserted at the end of packet transmission allows the LLC to make an additional link request for
packet transmission and/or to notify the PHY that the packet marks the end of a subaction. The link requests
allowed after packet transmission are listed in Table 37 (note that the link request types allowed during this
period are a subset of all of the allowed types of link requests—see Table 26). The associated speed codes and
packet format are listed in Table 37 and Table 38, respectively. If the LLC requests to send an additional packet,
then the PHY does not necessarily have to grant the request. If the LLC is notifying the PHY of the end of a
subaction, then the LLC sets D4 during the hold state at the end of packet transmission.
