General Description
The LAN8710A/LAN8710Ai is a low-power 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX physical layer (PHY) transceiver
with variable I/O voltage that is compliant with the IEEE 802.3-2005 standards.
The LAN8710A/LAN8710Ai supports communication with an Ethernet MAC via a standard MII (IEEE
802.3u)/RMII interface. It contains a full-duplex 10-BASE-T/100BASE-TX transceiver and supports
10Mbps (10BASE-T) and 100Mbps (100BASE-TX) operation. The LAN8710A/LAN8710Ai implements
auto-negotiation to automatically determine the best possible speed and duplex mode of operation. HP
Auto-MDIX support allows the use of direct connect or cross-over LAN cables.
The LAN8710A/LAN8710Ai supports both IEEE 802.3-2005 compliant and vendor-specific register
functions. However, no register access is required for operation. The initial configuration may be
selected via the configuration pins as described in Section 3.7, "Configuration Straps," on page 36.
Register-selectable configuration options may be used to further define the functionality of the
transceiver.
Per IEEE 802.3-2005 standards, all digital interface pins are tolerant to 3.6V. The device can be
configured to operate on a single 3.3V supply utilizing an integrated 3.3V to 1.2V linear regulator. The
linear regulator may be optionally disabled, allowing usage of a high efficiency external regulator for
lower system power dissipation.
The LAN8710A/LAN8710Ai is available in both extended commercial and industrial temperature range
versions. A typical system application is shown in Figure 1.1.

for control information or are not valid.
The first 16 code-groups are referred to by the hexadecimal values of their corresponding data nibbles,
0 through F. The remaining code-groups are given letter designations with slashes on either side. For
example, an IDLE code-group is /I/, a transmit error code-group is /H/, etc.

INTERPRETATION
Scrambling
Repeated data patterns (especially the IDLE code-group) can have power spectral densities with large
narrow-band peaks. Scrambling the data helps eliminate these peaks and spread the signal power
more uniformly over the entire channel bandwidth. This uniform spectral density is required by FCC
regulations to prevent excessive EMI from being radiated by the physical wiring.
The seed for the scrambler is generated from the transceiver address, PHYAD, ensuring that in
multiple-transceiver applications, such as repeaters or switches, each transceiver will have its own
scrambler sequence.
The scrambler also performs the Parallel In Serial Out conversion (PISO) of the data.
3.1.1.4
NRZI and MLT-3 Encoding
The scrambler block passes the 5-bit wide parallel data to the NRZI converter where it becomes a
serial 125MHz NRZI data stream. The NRZI is encoded to MLT-3. MLT-3 is a tri-level code where a
change in the logic level represents a code bit “1” and the logic output remaining at the same level
represents a code bit “0”.
3.1.1.5
100M Transmit Driver
The MLT3 data is then passed to the analog transmitter, which drives the differential MLT-3 signal, on
outputs TXP and TXN, to the twisted pair media across a 1:1 ratio isolation transformer. The 10BASET and 100BASE-TX signals pass through the same transformer so that common “magnetics” can be
used for both. The transmitter drives into the 100Ω impedance of the CAT-5 cable. Cable termination
and impedance matching require external components.

3.1.2.1
100M Receive Input
The MLT-3 from the cable is fed into the transceiver (on inputs RXP and RXN) via a 1:1 ratio
transformer. The ADC samples the incoming differential signal at a rate of 125M samples per second.
Using a 64-level quanitizer, it generates 6 digital bits to represent each sample. The DSP adjusts the
gain of the ADC according to the observed signal levels such that the full dynamic range of the ADC
can be used.
3.1.2.2
Equalizer, Baseline Wander Correction and Clock and Data Recovery
The 6 bits from the ADC are fed into the DSP block. The equalizer in the DSP section compensates
for phase and amplitude distortion caused by the physical channel consisting of magnetics, connectors,
and CAT- 5 cable. The equalizer can restore the signal for any good-quality CAT-5 cable between 1m
and 150m.
If the DC content of the signal is such that the low-frequency components fall below the low frequency
pole of the isolation transformer, then the droop characteristics of the transformer will become
significant and Baseline Wander (BLW) on the received signal will result. To prevent corruption of the
received data, the transceiver corrects for BLW and can receive the ANSI X3.263-1995 FDDI TP-PMD
defined “killer packet” with no bit errors.

Small Footprint MII/RMII 10/100 Ethernet Transceiver with HP Auto-MDIX and flexPWR® Technology
Datasheet
The 100M PLL generates multiple phases of the 125MHz clock. A multiplexer, controlled by the timing
unit of the DSP, selects the optimum phase for sampling the data. This is used as the received
recovered clock. This clock is used to extract the serial data from the received signal.
3.1.2.3
NRZI and MLT-3 Decoding
The DSP generates the MLT-3 recovered levels that are fed to the MLT-3 converter. The MLT-3 is then
converted to an NRZI data stream.
3.1.2.4
Descrambling
The descrambler performs an inverse function to the scrambler in the transmitter and also performs
the Serial In Parallel Out (SIPO) conversion of the data.
During reception of IDLE (/I/) symbols. the descrambler synchronizes its descrambler key to the
incoming stream. Once synchronization is achieved, the descrambler locks on this key and is able to
descramble incoming data.
Special logic in the descrambler ensures synchronization with the remote transceiver by searching for
IDLE symbols within a window of 4000 bytes (40us). This window ensures that a maximum packet size
of 1514 bytes, allowed by the IEEE 802.3 standard, can be received with no interference. If no IDLEsymbols are detected within this time-period, receive operation is aborted and the descrambler re-starts
the synchronization process.
3.1.2.5
Alignment
The de-scrambled signal is then aligned into 5-bit code-groups by recognizing the /J/K/ Start-of-Stream
Delimiter (SSD) pair at the start of a packet. Once the code-word alignment is determined, it is stored
and utilized until the next start of frame.
3.1.2.6
5B/4B Decoding
The 5-bit code-groups are translated into 4-bit data nibbles according to the 4B/5B table. The
translated data is presented on the RXD[3:0] signal lines. The SSD, /J/K/, is translated to “0101 0101”
as the first 2 nibbles of the MAC preamble. Reception of the SSD causes the transceiver to assert the
receive data valid signal, indicating that valid data is available on the RXD bus. Successive valid codegroups are translated to data nibbles. Reception of either the End of Stream Delimiter (ESD) consisting
of the /T/R/ symbols, or at least two /I/ symbols causes the transceiver to de-assert the carrier sense
and receive data valid signals.
Note: These symbols are not translated into data.
3.1.2.7
Receive Data Valid Signal
The Receive Data Valid signal (RXDV) indicates that recovered and decoded nibbles are being
presented on the RXD[3:0] outputs synchronous to RXCLK. RXDV becomes active after the /J/K/
delimiter has been recognized and RXD is aligned to nibble boundaries. It remains active until either
the /T/R/ delimiter is recognized or link test indicates failure or SIGDET becomes false.
RXDV is asserted when the first nibble of translated /J/K/ is ready for transfer over the Media
Independent Interface (MII mode).

3.1.2.8
Receiver Errors
During a frame, unexpected code-groups are considered receive errors. Expected code groups are the
DATA set (0 through F), and the /T/R/ (ESD) symbol pair. When a receive error occurs, the RXER
signal is asserted and arbitrary data is driven onto the RXD[3:0] lines. Should an error be detected
during the time that the /J/K/ delimiter is being decoded (bad SSD error), RXER is asserted true and
the value ‘1110’ is driven onto the RXD[3:0] lines. Note that the Valid Data signal is not yet asserted
when the bad SSD error occurs.
3.1.2.9
100M Receive Data Across the MII/RMII Interface
In MII mode, the 4-bit data nibbles are sent to the MII block. These data nibbles are clocked to the
controller at a rate of 25MHz. The controller samples the data on the rising edge of RXCLK. To ensure
that the setup and hold requirements are met, the nibbles are clocked out of the transceiver on the
falling edge of RXCLK. RXCLK is the 25MHz output clock for the MII bus. It is recovered from the
received data to clock the RXD bus. If there is no received signal, it is derived from the system
reference clock (XTAL1/CLKIN).
When tracking the received data, RXCLK has a maximum jitter of 0.8ns (provided that the jitter of the
input clock, XTAL1/CLKIN, is below 100ps).
In RMII mode, the 2-bit data nibbles are sent to the RMII block. These data nibbles are clocked to the
controller at a rate of 50MHz. The controller samples the data on the rising edge of XTAL1/CLKIN
(REF_CLK). To ensure that the setup and hold requirements are met, the nibbles are clocked out of
the transceiver on the falling edge of XTAL1/CLKIN (REF_CLK).
3.1.3
10BASE-T Transmit
Data to be transmitted comes from the MAC layer controller. The 10BASE-T transmitter receives 4-bit
nibbles from the MII at a rate of 2.5MHz and converts them to a 10Mbps serial data stream. The data
stream is then Manchester-encoded and sent to the analog transmitter, which drives a signal onto the
twisted pair via the external magnetics.
The 10M transmitter uses the following blocks:

„
MII (digital)
„
TX 10M (digital)
„
10M Transmitter (analog)
„
10M PLL (analog)
10M Transmit Data Across the MII/RMII Interface
The MAC controller drives the transmit data onto the TXD bus. For MII, when the controller has driven
TXEN high to indicate valid data, the data is latched by the MII block on the rising edge of TXCLK.
The data is in the form of 4-bit wide 2.5MHz data. For RMII, TXD[1:0] shall transition synchronously
with respect to REF_CLK. When TXEN is asserted, TXD[1:0] are accepted for transmission by the
device. TXD[1:0] shall be “00” to indicate idle when TXEN is deasserted. Values of TXD[1:0] other than
“00” when TXEN is deasserted are reserved for out-of-band signalling (to be defined). Values other

than “00” on TXD[1:0] while TXEN is deasserted shall be ignored by the device.TXD[1:0] shall provide
valid data for each REF_CLK period while TXEN is asserted.
In order to comply with legacy 10BASE-T MAC/Controllers, in half-duplex mode the transceiver loops
back the transmitted data, on the receive path. This does not confuse the MAC/Controller since the
COL signal is not asserted during this time. The transceiver also supports the SQE (Heartbeat) signal.
See Section 3.8.7, "Collision Detect," on page 42, for more details.
3.1.3.2
Manchester Encoding
The 4-bit wide data is sent to the 10M TX block. The nibbles are converted to a 10Mbps serial NRZI
data stream. The 10M PLL locks onto the external clock or internal oscillator and produces a 20MHz
clock. This is used to Manchester encode the NRZ data stream. When no data is being transmitted
(TXEN is low), the 10M TX block outputs Normal Link Pulses (NLPs) to maintain communications with
the remote link partner.
3.1.3.3
10M Transmit Drivers
The Manchester encoded data is sent to the analog transmitter where it is shaped and filtered before
being driven out as a differential signal across the TXP and TXN outputs.
3.1.4
10BASE-T Receive
The 10BASE-T receiver gets the Manchester- encoded analog signal from the cable via the magnetics.
It recovers the receive clock from the signal and uses this clock to recover the NRZI data stream. This
10M serial data is converted to 4-bit data nibbles which are passed to the controller via MII at a rate
of 2.5MHz.
This 10M receiver uses the following blocks:
3.1.4.1
„
Filter and SQUELCH (analog)
„
10M PLL (analog)
„
RX 10M (digital)
„
MII (digital)
10M Receive Input and Squelch
The Manchester signal from the cable is fed into the transceiver (on inputs RXP and RXN) via 1:1 ratio
magnetics. It is first filtered to reduce any out-of-band noise. It then passes through a SQUELCH
circuit. The SQUELCH is a set of amplitude and timing comparators that normally reject differential
voltage levels below 300mV and detect and recognize differential voltages above 585mV.
3.1.4.2
Manchester Decoding
The output of the SQUELCH goes to the 10M RX block where it is validated as Manchester encoded
data. The polarity of the signal is also checked. If the polarity is reversed (local RXP is connected to
RXN of the remote partner and vice versa), the condition is identified and corrected. The reversed
condition is indicated by the XPOL bit of the Special Control/Status Indications Register. The 10M PLL
is locked onto the received Manchester signal, from which the 20MHz cock is generated. Using this
clock, the Manchester encoded data is extracted and converted to a 10MHz NRZI data stream. It is
then converted from serial to 4-bit wide parallel data.
The 10M RX block also detects valid 10Base-T IDLE signals - Normal Link Pulses (NLPs) - to maintain
the link.

10M Receive Data Across the MII/RMII Interface
For MII, the 4-bit data nibbles are sent to the MII block. In MII mode, these data nibbles are valid on
the rising edge of the 2.5 MHz RXCLK.
For RMII, the 2-bit data nibbles are sent to the RMII block. In RMII mode, these data nibbles are valid
on the rising edge of the RMII REF_CLK.
3.1.4.4
Jabber Detection
Jabber is a condition in which a station transmits for a period of time longer than the maximum
permissible packet length, usually due to a fault condition, which results in holding the TXEN input for
a long period. Special logic is used to detect the jabber state and abort the transmission to the line
within 45ms. Once TXEN is deasserted, the logic resets the jabber condition.
As shown in Section 4.2.2, "Basic Status Register," on page 53, the Jabber Detect bit indicates that a
jabber condition was detected.
3.2
Auto-negotiation
The purpose of the auto-negotiation function is to automatically configure the transceiver to the
optimum link parameters based on the capabilities of its link partner. Auto-negotiation is a mechanism
for exchanging configuration information between two link-partners and automatically selecting the
highest performance mode of operation supported by both sides. Auto-negotiation is fully defined in
clause 28 of the IEEE 802.3 specification.
Once auto-negotiation has completed, information about the resolved link can be passed back to the
controller via the Serial Management Interface (SMI). The results of the negotiation process are
reflected in the Speed Indication bits of the PHY Special Control/Status Register, as well as in the Auto
Negotiation Link Partner Ability Register. The auto-negotiation protocol is a purely physical layer
activity and proceeds independently of the MAC controller.
The advertised capabilities of the transceiver are stored in the Auto Negotiation Advertisement
Register. The default advertised by the transceiver is determined by user-defined on-chip signal
options.
The following blocks are activated during an Auto-negotiation session:
„
Auto-negotiation (digital)
„
100M ADC (analog)
„
100M PLL (analog)
„
100M equalizer/BLW/clock recovery (DSP)
„
10M SQUELCH (analog)
„
10M PLL (analog)
„
10M Transmitter (analog)
When enabled, auto-negotiation is started by the occurrence of one of the following events:
„
Hardware reset
„
Software reset
„
Power-down reset
„
Link status down
„
Setting the Restart Auto-Negotiate bit of the Basic Control Register
On detection of one of these events, the transceiver begins auto-negotiation by transmitting bursts of
Fast Link Pulses (FLP), which are bursts of link pulses from the 10M transmitter. They are shaped as
Normal Link Pulses and can pass uncorrupted down CAT-3 or CAT-5 cable. A Fast Link Pulse Burst

DATASHEET
SMSC LAN8710A/LAN8710Ai

Datasheet
consists of up to 33 pulses. The 17 odd-numbered pulses, which are always present, frame the FLP
burst. The 16 even-numbered pulses, which may be present or absent, contain the data word being
transmitted. Presence of a data pulse represents a “1”, while absence represents a “0”.
The data transmitted by an FLP burst is known as a “Link Code Word.” These are defined fully in IEEE
802.3 clause 28. In summary, the transceiver advertises 802.3 compliance in its selector field (the first
5 bits of the Link Code Word). It advertises its technology ability according to the bits set in the Auto
Negotiation Advertisement Register.
There are 4 possible matches of the technology abilities. In the order of priority these are:
„
100M Full Duplex (Highest Priority)
„
100M Half Duplex
„
10M Full Duplex
„
10M Half Duplex (Lowest Priority)
If the full capabilities of the transceiver are advertised (100M, Full Duplex), and if the link partner is
capable of 10M and 100M, then auto-negotiation selects 100M as the highest performance mode. If
the link partner is capable of half and full duplex modes, then auto-negotiation selects full duplex as
the highest performance operation.
Once a capability match has been determined, the link code words are repeated with the acknowledge
bit set. Any difference in the main content of the link code words at this time will cause auto-negotiation
to re-start. Auto-negotiation will also re-start if not all of the required FLP bursts are received.
The capabilities advertised during auto-negotiation by the transceiver are initially determined by the
logic levels latched on the MODE[2:0] configuration straps after reset completes. These configuration
straps can also be used to disable auto-negotiation on power-up. Refer to Section 3.7.2, "MODE[2:0]:
Mode Configuration," on page 36 for additional information.
Writing the bits 8 through 5 of the Auto Negotiation Advertisement Register allows software control of
the capabilities advertised by the transceiver. Writing the Auto Negotiation Advertisement Register
does not automatically re-start auto-negotiation. The Restart Auto-Negotiate bit of the Basic Control
Register must be set before the new abilities will be advertised. Auto-negotiation can also be disabled
via software by clearing the Auto-Negotiation Enable bit of the Basic Control Register.
Note: The device does not support “Next Page” capability.
3.2.1
Parallel Detection
If the LAN8710A/LAN8710Ai is connected to a device lacking the ability to auto-negotiate (i.e. no FLPs
are detected), it is able to determine the speed of the link based on either 100M MLT-3 symbols or
10M Normal Link Pulses. In this case the link is presumed to be half duplex per the IEEE standard.
This ability is known as “Parallel Detection.” This feature ensures interoperability with legacy link
partners. If a link is formed via parallel detection, then the Link Partner Auto-Negotiation Able bit of the
Auto Negotiation Expansion Register is cleared to indicate that the Link Partner is not capable of autonegotiation. The controller has access to this information via the management interface. If a fault
occurs during parallel detection, the Parallel Detection Fault bit of Link Partner Auto-Negotiation Able
is set.
Auto Negotiation Link Partner Ability Register is used to store the link partner ability information, which
is coded in the received FLPs. If the link partner is not auto-negotiation capable, then the Auto
Negotiation Link Partner Ability Register is updated after completion of parallel detection to reflect the
speed capability of the link partner.
3.2.2
Restarting Auto-negotiation
Auto-negotiation can be restarted at any time by setting the Restart Auto-Negotiate bit of the Basic
Control Register. Auto-negotiation will also restart if the link is broken at any time. A broken link is
caused by signal loss. This may occur because of a cable break, or because of an interruption in the
SMSC LAN8710A/LAN8710Ai

signal transmitted by the link partner. Auto-negotiation resumes in an attempt to determine the new
link configuration.
If the management entity re-starts auto-negotiation by setting the Restart Auto-Negotiate bit of the
Basic Control Register, the LAN8710A/LAN8710Ai will respond by stopping all transmission/receiving
operations. Once the break_link_timer is completed in the Auto-negotiation state-machine
(approximately 1200ms), auto-negotiation will re-start. In this case, the link partner will have also
dropped the link due to lack of a received signal, so it too will resume auto-negotiation.
3.2.3
Disabling Auto-negotiation
Auto-negotiation can be disabled by setting the Auto-Negotiation Enable bit of the Basic Control
Register to zero. The device will then force its speed of operation to reflect the information in the Basic
Control Register (Speed Select bit and Duplex Mode bit). These bits should be ignored when autonegotiation is enabled.
3.2.4
Half vs. Full Duplex
Half duplex operation relies on the CSMA/CD (Carrier Sense Multiple Access / Collision Detect)
protocol to handle network traffic and collisions. In this mode, the carrier sense signal, CRS, responds
to both transmit and receive activity. If data is received while the transceiver is transmitting, a collision
results.
In full duplex mode, the transceiver is able to transmit and receive data simultaneously. In this mode,
CRS responds only to receive activity. The CSMA/CD protocol does not apply and collision detection
is disabled.

HP Auto-MDIX Support
HP Auto-MDIX facilitates the use of CAT-3 (10BASE-T) or CAT-5 (100BASE-T) media UTP
interconnect cable without consideration of interface wiring scheme. If a user plugs in either a direct
connect LAN cable, or a cross-over patch cable, as shown in Figure 3.4, the device’s Auto-MDIX
transceiver is capable of configuring the TXP/TXN and RXP/RXN pins for correct transceiver operation.
The internal logic of the device detects the TX and RX pins of the connecting device. Since the RX
and TX line pairs are interchangeable, special PCB design considerations are needed to accommodate
the symmetrical magnetics and termination of an Auto-MDIX design.
The Auto-MDIX function can be disabled via the AMDIXCTRL bit in the Special Control/Status
Indications Register.

MAC Interface
The MII/RMII block is responsible for communication with the MAC controller. Special sets of handshake signals are used to indicate that valid received/transmitted data is present on the 4 bit
receive/transmit bus.
The device must be configured in MII or RMII mode. This is done by specific pin strapping
configurations. Refer to Section 3.4.3, "MII vs. RMII Configuration," on page 31 for information on pin
strapping and how the pins are mapped differently.
3.4.1
MII
The MII includes 16 interface signals:
„
transmit data - TXD[3:0]
„
transmit strobe - TXEN
„
transmit clock - TXCLK
„
transmit error - TXER/TXD4
„
receive data - RXD[3:0]
„
receive strobe - RXDV
„
receive clock - RXCLK
„
receive error - RXER/RXD4/PHYAD0
„
collision indication - COL
„
carrier sense - CRS
In MII mode, on the transmit path, the transceiver drives the transmit clock, TXCLK, to the controller.
The controller synchronizes the transmit data to the rising edge of TXCLK. The controller drives TXEN
high to indicate valid transmit data. The controller drives TXER high when a transmit error is detected.
On the receive path, the transceiver drives both the receive data, RXD[3:0], and the RXCLK signal.
The controller clocks in the receive data on the rising edge of RXCLK when the transceiver drives
RXDV high. The transceiver drives RXER high when a receive error is detected.
3.4.2
RMII
The device supports the low pin count Reduced Media Independent Interface (RMII) intended for use
between Ethernet transceivers and switch ASICs. Under IEEE 802.3, an MII comprised of 16 pins for
data and control is defined. In devices incorporating many MACs or transceiver interfaces such as
switches, the number of pins can add significant cost as the port counts increase. RMII reduces this
pin count while retaining a management interface (MDIO/MDC) that is identical to MII.
The RMII interface has the following characteristics:
„
It is capable of supporting 10Mbps and 100Mbps data rates
„
A single clock reference is used for both transmit and receive
„
It provides independent 2-bit (di-bit) wide transmit and receive data paths
„
It uses LVCMOS signal levels, compatible with common digital CMOS ASIC processes
The RMII includes the following interface signals (1 optional):
„
transmit data - TXD[1:0]
„
transmit strobe - TXEN
„
receive data - RXD[1:0]
„
receive error - RXER (Optional)

3.4.2.1
„
carrier sense - CRS_DV
„
Reference Clock - (RMII references usually define this signal as REF_CLK)
CRS_DV - Carrier Sense/Receive Data Valid
The CRS_DV is asserted by the device when the receive medium is non-idle. CRS_DV is asserted
asynchronously on detection of carrier due to the criteria relevant to the operating mode. In 10BASET mode when squelch is passed, or in 100BASE-X mode when 2 non-contiguous zeroes in 10 bits are
detected, the carrier is said to be detected.
Loss of carrier shall result in the deassertion of CRS_DV synchronous to the cycle of REF_CLK which
presents the first di-bit of a nibble onto RXD[1:0] (i.e. CRS_DV is deasserted only on nibble
boundaries). If the device has additional bits to be presented on RXD[1:0] following the initial
deassertion of CRS_DV, then the device shall assert CRS_DV on cycles of REF_CLK which present
the second di-bit of each nibble and de-assert CRS_DV on cycles of REF_CLK which present the first
di-bit of a nibble. The result is, starting on nibble boundaries, CRS_DV toggles at 25 MHz in 100Mbps
mode and 2.5 MHz in 10Mbps mode when CRS ends before RXDV (i.e. the FIFO still has bits to
transfer when the carrier event ends). Therefore, the MAC can accurately recover RXDV and CRS.
During a false carrier event, CRS_DV shall remain asserted for the duration of carrier activity. The data
on RXD[1:0] is considered valid once CRS_DV is asserted. However, since the assertion of CRS_DV
is asynchronous relative to REF_CLK, the data on RXD[1:0] shall be “00” until proper receive signal
decoding takes place.
3.4.2.2
Reference Clock (REF_CLK)
The RMII REF_CLK is a continuous clock that provides the timing reference for CRS_DV, RXD[1:0],
TXEN, TXD[1:0] and RXER. The device uses REF_CLK as the network clock such that no buffering
is required on the transmit data path. However, on the receive data path, the receiver recovers the
clock from the incoming data stream, and the device uses elasticity buffering to accommodate for
differences between the recovered clock and the local REF_CLK.
3.4.3
MII vs. RMII Configuration
The device must be configured to support the MII or RMII bus for connectivity to the MAC. This
configuration is done via the RMIISEL configuration strap. MII or RMII mode selection is configured
based on the strapping of the RMIISEL configuration strap as described in Section 3.7.3, "RMIISEL:
MII/RMII Mode Configuration," on page 37.
Most of the MII and RMII pins are multiplexed. Table 3.2, "MII/RMII Signal Mapping" describes the
relationship of the related device pins to the MII and RMII mode signal names.

Serial Management Interface (SMI)
The Serial Management Interface is used to control the device and obtain its status. This interface
supports registers 0 through 6 as required by Clause 22 of the 802.3 standard, as well as “vendorspecific” registers 16 to 31 allowed by the specification. Non-supported registers (such as 7 to 15) will
be read as hexadecimal “FFFF”. Device registers are detailed in Chapter 4, "Register Descriptions,"
on page 50.
At the system level, SMI provides 2 signals: MDIO and MDC. The MDC signal is an aperiodic clock
provided by the station management controller (SMC). MDIO is a bi-directional data SMI input/output
signal that receives serial data (commands) from the controller SMC and sends serial data (status) to
the SMC. The minimum time between edges of the MDC is 160 ns. There is no maximum time
between edges. The minimum cycle time (time between two consecutive rising or two consecutive
falling edges) is 400 ns. These modest timing requirements allow this interface to be easily driven by
the I/O port of a microcontroller.
The data on the MDIO line is latched on the rising edge of the MDC. The frame structure and timing
of the data is shown in Figure 3.5 and Figure 3.6. The timing relationships of the MDIO signals are
further described in Section 5.5.6, "SMI Timing," on page 76.

Interrupt Management
The device management interface supports an interrupt capability that is not a part of the IEEE 802.3
specification. This interrupt capability generates an active low asynchronous interrupt signal on the
nINT output whenever certain events are detected as setup by the Interrupt Mask Register.
The device’s interrupt system provides two modes, a Primary Interrupt mode and an Alternative
interrupt mode. Both systems will assert the nINT pin low when the corresponding mask bit is set.
These modes differ only in how they de-assert the nINT interrupt output. These modes are detailed in
the following subsections.
Note: The Primary interrupt mode is the default interrupt mode after a power-up or hard reset. The
Alternative interrupt mode requires setup after a power-up or hard reset.
3.6.1
Primary Interrupt System
The Primary interrupt system is the default interrupt mode (ALTINT bit of the Mode Control/Status
Register is “0”). The Primary interrupt system is always selected after power-up or hard reset. In this
mode, to set an interrupt, set the corresponding mask bit in the Interrupt Mask Register (see Table 3.3).
Then when the event to assert nINT is true, the nINT output will be asserted. When the corresponding
event to deassert nINT is true, then the nINT will be de-asserted.

Revision 1.4 (08-23-12)
If the mask bit is enabled and nINT has been de-asserted while ENERGYON is still high,
nINT will assert for 256 ms, approximately one second after ENERGYON goes low when
the Cable is unplugged. To prevent an unexpected assertion of nINT, the ENERGYON
interrupt mask should always be cleared as part of the ENERGYON interrupt service
routine.

Datasheet
Note: The ENERGYON bit in the Mode Control/Status Register is defaulted to a ‘1’ at the start of the
signal acquisition process, therefore the INT7 bit in the Interrupt Mask Register will also read
as a ‘1’ at power-up. If no signal is present, then both ENERGYON and INT7 will clear within
a few milliseconds.
3.6.2
Alternate Interrupt System
The Alternate interrupt system is enabled by setting the ALTINT bit of the Mode Control/Status Register
to “1”. In this mode, to set an interrupt, set the corresponding bit of the in the Mask Register 30, (see
Table 3.4). To Clear an interrupt, either clear the corresponding bit in the Interrupt Mask Register to
deassert the nINT output, or clear the interrupt source, and write a ‘1’ to the corresponding Interrupt
Source Flag. Writing a ‘1’ to the Interrupt Source Flag will cause the state machine to check the
Interrupt Source to determine if the Interrupt Source Flag should clear or stay as a ‘1’. If the Condition
to deassert is true, then the Interrupt Source Flag is cleared and nINT is also deasserted. If the
Condition to deassert is false, then the Interrupt Source Flag remains set, and the nINT remains
asserted.
For example, setting the INT7 bit in the Interrupt Mask Register will enable the ENERGYON interrupt.
After a cable is plugged in, the ENERGYON bit in the Mode Control/Status Register goes active and
nINT will be asserted low. To de-assert the nINT interrupt output, either clear the ENERGYON bit in
the Mode Control/Status Register by removing the cable and then writing a ‘1’ to the INT7 bit in the
Interrupt Mask Register, OR clear the INT7 mask (bit 7 of the Interrupt Mask Register).

Note: The ENERGYON bit in the Mode Control/Status Register is defaulted to a ‘1’ at the start of the
signal acquisition process, therefore the INT7 bit in the Interrupt Mask Register will also read
as a ‘1’ at power-up. If no signal is present, then both ENERGYON and INT7 will clear within
a few milliseconds.

Configuration Straps
Configuration straps allow various features of the device to be automatically configured to user defined
values. Configuration straps are latched upon Power-On Reset (POR) and pin reset (nRST).
Configuration straps include internal resistors in order to prevent the signal from floating when
unconnected. If a particular configuration strap is connected to a load, an external pull-up or pull-down
resistor should be used to augment the internal resistor to ensure that it reaches the required voltage
level prior to latching. The internal resistor can also be overridden by the addition of an external
resistor.
Note: The system designer must guarantee that configuration strap pins meet the timing
requirements specified in Section 5.5.3, "Power-On nRST & Configuration Strap Timing," on
page 72. If configuration strap pins are not at the correct voltage level prior to being latched,
the device may capture incorrect strap values.
Note: When externally pulling configuration straps high, the strap should be tied to VDDIO, except
for REGOFF and nINTSEL which should be tied to VDD2A.
3.7.1
PHYAD[2:0]: PHY Address Configuration
The PHYAD[2:0] configuration straps are driven high or low to give each PHY a unique address. This
address is latched into an internal register at the end of a hardware reset (default = 000b). In a multitransceiver application (such as a repeater), the controller is able to manage each transceiver via the
unique address. Each transceiver checks each management data frame for a matching address in the
relevant bits. When a match is recognized, the transceiver responds to that particular frame. The PHY
address is also used to seed the scrambler. In a multi-transceiver application, this ensures that the
scramblers are out of synchronization and disperses the electromagnetic radiation across the
frequency spectrum.
The device’s SMI address may be configured using hardware configuration to any value between 0
and 7. The user can configure the PHY address using Software Configuration if an address greater
than 7 is required. The PHY address can be written (after SMI communication at some address is
established) using the PHYAD bits of the Special Modes Register. The PHYAD[2:0] configuration straps
are multiplexed with other signals as shown in Table 3.5.

MODE[2:0]: Mode Configuration
The MODE[2:0] configuration straps control the configuration of the 10/100 digital block. When the
nRST pin is deasserted, the register bit values are loaded according to the MODE[2:0] configuration
straps. The 10/100 digital block is then configured by the register bit values. When a soft reset occurs
via the Soft Reset bit of the Basic Control Register, the configuration of the 10/100 digital block is
controlled by the register bit values and the MODE[2:0] configuration straps have no affect.
The device’s mode may be configured using the hardware configuration straps as summarized in
Table 3.6. The user may configure the transceiver mode by writing the SMI registers.

RMIISEL: MII/RMII Mode Configuration
MII or RMII mode selection is latched on the rising edge of the internal reset (nRST) based on the
strapping of the RMIISEL configuration strap. The default mode is MII (via the internal pull-down
resistor). To select RMII mode, pull the RMIISEL configuration strap high with an external resistor to
VDDIO.
When the nRST pin is deasserted, the MIIMODE bit of the Special Modes Register is loaded according
to the RMIISEL configuration strap. The mode is reflected in the MIIMODE bit of the Special Modes
Register.
Refer to Section 3.4, "MAC Interface," on page 30 for additional information on MII and RMII modes.

3.7.4
REGOFF: Internal +1.2V Regulator Configuration
The incorporation of flexPWR technology provides the ability to disable the internal +1.2V regulator.
When the regulator is disabled, an external +1.2V must be supplied to the VDDCR pin. Disabling the
internal +1.2V regulator makes it possible to reduce total system power, since an external switching
regulator with greater efficiency (versus the internal linear regulator) can be used to provide +1.2V to
the transceiver circuitry.
Note: Because the REGOFF configuration strap shares functionality with the LED1 pin, proper
consideration must also be given to the LED polarity. Refer to Section 3.8.1.1, "REGOFF and
LED1 Polarity Selection," on page 39 for additional information on the relation between
REGOFF and the LED1 polarity.
3.7.4.1
Disabling the Internal +1.2V Regulator
To disable the +1.2V internal regulator, a pull-up strapping resistor should be connected from the
REGOFF configuration strap to VDD2A. At power-on, after both VDDIO and VDD2A are within
specification, the transceiver will sample REGOFF to determine whether the internal regulator should
turn on. If the pin is sampled at a voltage greater than VIH, then the internal regulator is disabled and
the system must supply +1.2V to the VDDCR pin. The VDDIO voltage must be at least 80% of the
operating voltage level (1.44V when operating at 1.8V, 2.0V when operating at 2.5V, 2.64V when
operating at 3.3V) before voltage is applied to VDDCR. As described in Section 3.7.4.2, when
REGOFF is left floating or connected to VSS, the internal regulator is enabled and the system is not
required to supply +1.2V to the VDDCR pin.
3.7.4.2
Enabling the Internal +1.2V Regulator
The +1.2V for VDDCR is supplied by the on-chip regulator unless the transceiver is configured for the
regulator off mode using the REGOFF configuration strap as described in Section 3.7.4.1. By default,
the internal +1.2V regulator is enabled when REGOFF is floating (due to the internal pull-down
resistor). During power-on, if REGOFF is sampled below VIL, then the internal +1.2V regulator will turn
on and operate with power from the VDD2A pin.
3.7.5
nINTSEL: nINT/TXER/TXD4 Configuration
The nINT, TXER, and TXD4 functions share a common pin. There are two functional modes for this
pin, the TXER/TXD4 mode and nINT (interrupt) mode. The nINTSEL configuration strap is latched at
POR and on the rising edge of the nRST. By default, nINTSEL is configured for nINT mode via the
internal pull-up resistor.
Note: Because the nINTSEL configuration strap shares functionality with the LED2 pin, proper
consideration must also be given to the LED polarity. Refer to Section 3.8.1.2, "nINTSEL and
LED2 Polarity Selection," on page 39 for additional information on the relation between
nINTSEL and the LED2 polarity.

Miscellaneous Functions
3.8.1
LEDs
Two LED signals are provided as a convenient means to determine the transceiver's mode of
operation. All LED signals are either active high or active low as described in Section 3.8.1.2,
"nINTSEL and LED2 Polarity Selection" and Section 3.8.1.1, "REGOFF and LED1 Polarity Selection,"
on page 39.
The LED1 output is driven active whenever the device detects a valid link, and blinks when CRS is
active (high) indicating activity.
The LED2 output is driven active when the operating speed is 100Mbps. This LED will go inactive
when the operating speed is 10Mbps or during line isolation.
Note: When pulling the LED1 and LED2 pins high, they must be tied to VDD2A, NOT VDDIO.
3.8.1.1
REGOFF and LED1 Polarity Selection
The REGOFF configuration strap is shared with the LED1 pin. The LED1 output will automatically
change polarity based on the presence of an external pull-up resistor. If the LED1 pin is pulled high to
VDD2A by an external pull-up resistor to select a logical high for REGOFF, then the LED1 output will
be active low. If the LED1 pin is pulled low by the internal pull-down resistor to select a logical low for
REGOFF, the LED1 output will then be an active high output. Figure 3.7 details the LED1 polarity for
each REGOFF configuration.

3.8.2
Variable Voltage I/O
The device’s digital I/O pins are variable voltage, allowing them to take advantage of low power savings
from shrinking technologies. These pins can operate from a low I/O voltage of +1.62V up to +3.6V.
The applied I/O voltage must maintain its value with a tolerance of ± 10%. Varying the voltage up or
down after the transceiver has completed power-on reset can cause errors in the transceiver operation.
Refer to Chapter 5, "Operational Characteristics," on page 66 for additional information.
Note: Input signals must not be driven high before power is applied to the device.
3.8.3
Power-Down Modes
There are two device power-down modes: General Power-Down Mode and Energy Detect PowerDown Mode. These modes are described in the following subsections.
3.8.3.1
General Power-Down
This power-down mode is controlled via the Power Down bit of the Basic Control Register. In this
mode, the entire transceiver (except the management interface) is powered-down and remains in this
mode as long as the Power Down bit is “1”. When the Power Down bit is cleared, the transceiver
powers up and is automatically reset.
3.8.3.2
Energy Detect Power-Down
This power-down mode is activated by setting the EDPWRDOWN bit of the Mode Control/Status
Register. In this mode, when no energy is present on the line the transceiver is powered down (except
for the management interface, the SQUELCH circuit, and the ENERGYON logic). The ENERGYON
logic is used to detect the presence of valid energy from 100BASE-TX, 10BASE-T, or Auto-negotiation
signals.
In this mode, when the ENERGYON bit of the Mode Control/Status Register is low, the transceiver is
powered-down and nothing is transmitted. When energy is received via link pulses or packets, the
ENERGYON bit goes high and the transceiver powers-up. The device automatically resets into the

state prior to power-down and asserts the nINT interrupt if the ENERGYON interrupt is enabled in the
Interrupt Mask Register. The first and possibly the second packet to activate ENERGYON may be lost.
When the EDPWRDOWN bit of the Mode Control/Status Register is low, energy detect power-down is
disabled.
3.8.4
Isolate Mode
The device data paths may be electrically isolated from the MII/RMII interface by setting the Isolate bit
of the Basic Control Register to “1”. In isolation mode, the transceiver does not respond to the TXD,
TXEN and TXER inputs, but does respond to management transactions.
Isolation provides a means for multiple transceivers to be connected to the same MII/RMII interface
without contention. By default, the transceiver is not isolated (on power-up (Isolate=0).
3.8.5
Resets
The device provides two forms of reset: Hardware and Software. The device registers are reset by
both Hardware and Software resets. Select register bits, indicated as “NASR” in the register definitions,
are not cleared by a Software reset. The registers are not reset by the power-down modes described
in Section 3.8.3.
Note: For the first 16us after coming out of reset, the MII/RMII interface will run at 2.5 MHz. After this
time, it will switch to 25 MHz if auto-negotiation is enabled.
3.8.5.1
Hardware Reset
A Hardware reset is asserted by driving the nRST input pin low. When driven, nRST should be held
low for the minimum time detailed in Section 5.5.3, "Power-On nRST & Configuration Strap Timing,"
on page 72 to ensure a proper transceiver reset. During a Hardware reset, an external clock must be
supplied to the XTAL1/CLKIN signal.
Note: A hardware reset (nRST assertion) is required following power-up. Refer to Section 5.5.3,
"Power-On nRST & Configuration Strap Timing," on page 72 for additional information.
3.8.5.2
Software Reset
A Software reset is activated by setting the Soft Reset bit of the Basic Control Register to “1”. All
registers bits, except those indicated as “NASR” in the register definitions, are cleared by a Software
reset. The Soft Reset bit is self-clearing. Per the IEEE 802.3u standard, clause 22 (22.2.4.1.1) the reset
process will be completed within 0.5s from the setting of this bit.
3.8.6
Carrier Sense
The carrier sense (CRS) is output on the CRS pin in MII mode, and the CRS_DV pin in RMII mode.
CRS is a signal defined by the MII specification in the IEEE 802.3u standard. The device asserts CRS
based only on receive activity whenever the transceiver is either in repeater mode or full-duplex mode.
Otherwise the transceiver asserts CRS based on either transmit or receive activity.
The carrier sense logic uses the encoded, unscrambled data to determine carrier activity status. It
activates carrier sense with the detection of 2 non-contiguous zeros within any 10 bit span. Carrier
sense terminates if a span of 10 consecutive ones is detected before a /J/K/ Start-of Stream Delimiter
pair. If an SSD pair is detected, carrier sense is asserted until either /T/R/ End–of-Stream Delimiter
pair or a pair of IDLE symbols is detected. Carrier is negated after the /T/ symbol or the first IDLE. If
/T/ is not followed by /R/, then carrier is maintained. Carrier is treated similarly for IDLE followed by
some non-IDLE symbol.

3.8.7
Collision Detect
A collision is the occurrence of simultaneous transmit and receive operations. The COL output is
asserted to indicate that a collision has been detected. COL remains active for the duration of the
collision. COL is changed asynchronously to both RXCLK and TXCLK. The COL output becomes
inactive during full duplex mode.
The COL may be tested by setting the Collision Test bit of the Basic Control Register to “1”. This
enables the collision test. COL will be asserted within 512 bit times of TXEN rising and will be deasserted within 4 bit times of TXEN falling.
3.8.8
Link Integrity Test
The device performs the link integrity test as outlined in the IEEE 802.3u (Clause 24-15) Link Monitor
state diagram. The link status is multiplexed with the 10Mbps link status to form the Link Status bit in
the Basic Status Register and to drive the LINK LED (LED1).
The DSP indicates a valid MLT-3 waveform present on the RXP and RXN signals as defined by the
ANSI X3.263 TP-PMD standard, to the Link Monitor state-machine, using the internal DATA_VALID
signal. When DATA_VALID is asserted, the control logic moves into a Link-Ready state and waits for
an enable from the auto-negotiation block. When received, the Link-Up state is entered, and the
Transmit and Receive logic blocks become active. Should auto-negotiation be disabled, the link
integrity logic moves immediately to the Link-Up state when the DATA_VALID is asserted.
To allow the line to stabilize, the link integrity logic will wait a minimum of 330 μsec from the time
DATA_VALID is asserted until the Link-Ready state is entered. Should the DATA_VALID input be
negated at any time, this logic will immediately negate the Link signal and enter the Link-Down state.
When the 10/100 digital block is in 10BASE-T mode, the link status is derived from the 10BASE-T
receiver logic.
3.8.9
Loopback Operation
The device may be configured for near-end loopback and far loopback. These loopback modes are
detailed in the following subsections.
3.8.9.1
Near-end Loopback
Near-end loopback mode sends the digital transmit data back out the receive data signals for testing
purposes, as indicated by the blue arrows in Figure 3.9. The near-end loopback mode is enabled by
setting the Loopback bit of the Basic Control Register to “1”. A large percentage of the digital circuitry
is operational in near-end loopback mode because data is routed through the PCS and PMA layers
into the PMD sublayer before it is looped back. The COL signal will be inactive in this mode, unless

Control/Status Register to “1”. In this mode, data that is received from the link partner on the MDI is
looped back out to the link partner. The digital interface signals on the local MAC interface are isolated.

Chapter 4 Register Descriptions
This chapter describes the various control and status registers (CSR’s). All registers follow the IEEE
802.3 (clause 22.2.4) management register set. All functionality and bit definitions comply with these
standards. The IEEE 802.3 specified register index (in decimal) is included with each register definition,
allowing for addressing of these registers via the Serial Management Interface (SMI) protocol.
4.1
Register Nomenclature
Table 4.1 describes the register bit attribute notation used throughout this document.
Table 4.1 Register Bit Types
REGISTER BIT TYPE
NOTATION
REGISTER BIT DESCRIPTION
R
Read: A register or bit with this attribute can be read.
W
Read: A register or bit with this attribute can be written.
RO
Read only: Read only. Writes have no effect.
WO
Write only: If a register or bit is write-only, reads will return unspecified data.
WC
Write One to Clear: writing a one clears the value. Writing a zero has no effect
WAC
Write Anything to Clear: writing anything clears the value.
RC
Read to Clear: Contents is cleared after the read. Writes have no effect.
LL
Latch Low: Clear on read of register.
LH
Latch High: Clear on read of register.
SC
Self-Clearing: Contents are self-cleared after the being set. Writes of zero have no
effect. Contents can be read.
SS
Self-Setting: Contents are self-setting after being cleared. Writes of one have no
effect. Contents can be read.
RO/LH
Read Only, Latch High: Bits with this attribute will stay high until the bit is read. After
it is read, the bit will either remain high if the high condition remains, or will go low if
the high condition has been removed. If the bit has not been read, the bit will remain
high regardless of a change to the high condition. This mode is used in some Ethernet
PHY registers.
NASR
Not Affected by Software Reset. The state of NASR bits do not change on assertion
of a software reset.
RESERVED
Reserved Field: Reserved fields must be written with zeros to ensure future
compatibility. The value of reserved bits is not guaranteed on a read.
Many of these register bit notations can be combined. Some examples of this are shown below:
„
R/W: Can be written. Will return current setting on a read.
„
R/WAC: Will return current setting on a read. Writing anything clears the bit.

Note 5.1
When powering this device from laboratory or system power supplies, it is important that
the absolute maximum ratings not be exceeded or device failure can result. Some power
supplies exhibit voltage spikes on their outputs when AC power is switched on or off. In
addition, voltage transients on the AC power line may appear on the DC output. If this
possibility exists, it is suggested that a clamp circuit be used.
Note 5.2
This rating does not apply to the following pins: XTAL1/CLKIN, XTAL2, RBIAS.
Note 5.3
This rating does not apply to the following pins: RBIAS.
Note 5.4
0oC to +85oC for extended commercial version, -40oC to +85oC for industrial version.
Note 5.5
Performed by independent 3rd party test facility.
*Stresses exceeding those listed in this section could cause permanent damage to the device. This is
a stress rating only. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect
device reliability. Functional operation of the device at any condition exceeding those indicated in
Section 5.2, "Operating Conditions**", Section 5.1, "Absolute Maximum Ratings*", or any other
applicable section of this specification is not implied. Note, device signals are NOT 5 volt tolerant
unless specified otherwise.

Power-On nRST & Configuration Strap Timing
This diagram illustrates the nRST reset and configuration strap timing requirements in relation to
power-on. A hardware reset (nRST assertion) is required following power-up. For proper operation,
nRST must be asserted for no less than trstia. The nRST pin can be asserted at any time, but must
not be deasserted before tpurstd after all external power supplies have reached 80% of their nominal
operating levels. In order for valid configuration strap values to be read at power-up, the tcss and tcsh
timing constraints must be followed. Refer to Section 3.8.5, "Resets," on page 41 for additional
information.

The device can accept either a 25MHz crystal or a 25MHz single-ended clock oscillator (±50ppm)
input. If the single-ended clock oscillator method is implemented, XTAL2 should be left unconnected
and XTAL1/CLKIN should be driven with a nominal 0-3.3V clock signal. See Table 5.13 for the
recommended crystal specifications.

Note 5.20 The maximum allowable values for Frequency Tolerance and Frequency Stability are
application dependant. Since any particular application must meet the IEEE ±50 PPM Total
PPM Budget, the combination of these two values must be approximately ±45 PPM
(allowing for aging).
Note 5.21 Frequency Deviation Over Time is also referred to as Aging.
Note 5.22 The total deviation for the Transmitter Clock Frequency is specified by IEEE 802.3u as
±100 PPM.
Note 5.23 0oC for extended commercial version, -40oC for industrial version.
Note 5.24 This number includes the pad, the bond wire and the lead frame. PCB capacitance is not
included in this value. The XTAL1/CLKIN pin, XTAL2 pin and PCB capacitance values are
required to accurately calculate the value of the two external load capacitors. The total load
capacitance must be equivalent to what the crystal expects to see in the circuit so that the
crystal oscillator will operate at 25.000 MHz.
