CRYSTAL/OSCILLATOR INPUT: This pin is the primary clock
reference input for the DP83849C and must be connected to a 25
MHz 0.005% (+50 ppm) clock source. The DP83849C supports
either an external crystal resonator connected across pins X1 and
X2, or an external CMOS-level oscillator source connected to pin
X1 only.
RMII REFERENCE CLOCK: This pin is the primary clock reference input for the RMII mode and must be connected to a 50 MHz
0.005% (+50 ppm) CMOS-level oscillator source.

CRYSTAL OUTPUT: This pin is the primary clock reference output to connect to an external 25 MHz crystal resonator device.
This pin must be left unconnected if an external CMOS oscillator
clock source is used.
CLK2MAC
O
68
CLOCK TO MAC:
In MII mode, this pin provides a 25 MHz clock output to the system.
In RMII mode, this pin provides a 50 MHz clock output to the system.
This allows other devices to use the reference clock from the
DP83849C without requiring additional clock sources.
If the system does not require the CLK2MAC signal, the
CLK2MAC output should be disabled via the CLK2MAC disable
strap.
1.4 LED Interface
The DP83849C supports three configurable LED pins. The
LEDs support two operational modes which are selected
by the LED mode strap and a third operational mode which
Signal Name
LED_LINK_A
is register configurable. The definitions for the LEDs for
each mode are detailed below. Since the LEDs are also
used as strap options, the polarity of the LED output is
dependent on whether the pin is pulled up or down.

1.5 Reset and Power Down
Type
Pin #
Description
RESET_N
Signal Name
I, PU
71
RESET: Active Low input that initializes or re-initializes the
DP83849C. Asserting this pin low for at least 1 µs will force a reset
process to occur. All internal registers will re-initialize to their default states as specified for each bit in the Register Block section.
All strap options are re-initialized as well.
PWRDOWN_INT_A
I, PU
18
The default function of this pin is POWER DOWN.
44
POWER DOWN: The pin is an active low input in this mode and
should be asserted low to put the device in a Power Down mode.
PWRDOWN_INT_B
INTERRUPT: The pin is an open drain output in this mode and will
be asserted low when an interrupt condition occurs. Although the
pin has a weak internal pull-up, some applications may require an
external pull-up resister. Register access is required for the pin to
be used as an interrupt mechanism. See Section 5.5.2 Interrupt
Mechanism for more details on the interrupt mechanisms.
1.6 Strap Options
The DP83849C uses many of the functional pins as strap
options. The values of these pins are sampled during reset
and used to strap the device into specific modes of operation. The strap option pin assignments are defined below.
The functional pin name is indicated in parentheses.
Signal Name
A 2.2 kΩ resistor should be used for pull-down or pull-up to
change the default strap option. If the default option is
required, then there is no need for external pull-up or pull
down resistors. Since these pins may have alternate functions after reset is deasserted, they should not be connected directly to VCC or GND.

2.1 Auto-Negotiation
The Auto-Negotiation function provides a mechanism for
exchanging configuration information between two ends of
a link segment and automatically selecting the highest performance mode of operation supported by both devices.
Fast Link Pulse (FLP) Bursts provide the signalling used to
communicate Auto-Negotiation abilities between two
devices at each end of a link segment. For further detail
regarding Auto-Negotiation, refer to Clause 28 of the IEEE
802.3u specification. The DP83849C supports four different Ethernet protocols (10 Mb/s Half Duplex, 10 Mb/s Full
Duplex, 100 Mb/s Half Duplex, and 100 Mb/s Full Duplex),
so the inclusion of Auto-Negotiation ensures that the highest performance protocol will be selected based on the
advertised ability of the Link Partner. The Auto-Negotiation
function within the DP83849C can be controlled either by
internal register access or by the use of the AN_EN, AN1
and AN0 pins.
2.1.1 Auto-Negotiation Pin Control
The state of AN_EN, AN0 and AN1 determines whether the
DP83849C is forced into a specific mode or Auto-Negotiation will advertise a specific ability (or set of abilities) as
given in Table 1. These pins allow configuration options to
be selected without requiring internal register access.
The state of AN_EN, AN0 and AN1, upon power-up/reset,

2.1.2 Auto-Negotiation Register Control
When Auto-Negotiation is enabled, the DP83849C transmits the abilities programmed into the Auto-Negotiation
Advertisement register (ANAR) at address 04h via FLP
Bursts. Any combination of 10 Mb/s, 100 Mb/s, HalfDuplex, and Full Duplex modes may be selected.
Auto-Negotiation Priority Resolution:
— (1) 100BASE-TX Full Duplex (Highest Priority)
— (2) 100BASE-TX Half Duplex
— (3) 10BASE-T Full Duplex
— (4) 10BASE-T Half Duplex (Lowest Priority)
The Basic Mode Control Register (BMCR) at address 00h
provides control for enabling, disabling, and restarting the
Auto-Negotiation process. When Auto-Negotiation is disabled, the Speed Selection bit in the BMCR controls
switching between 10 Mb/s or 100 Mb/s operation, and the
Duplex Mode bit controls switching between full duplex
operation and half duplex operation. The Speed Selection
and Duplex Mode bits have no effect on the mode of operation when the Auto-Negotiation Enable bit is set.
The Link Speed can be examined through the PHY Status
Register (PHYSTS) at address 10h after a Link is
achieved.
The Basic Mode Status Register (BMSR) indicates the set
of available abilities for technology types, Auto-Negotiation
ability, and Extended Register Capability. These bits are
permanently set to indicate the full functionality of the
DP83849C (only the 100BASE-T4 bit is not set since the
DP83849C does not support that function).
The BMSR also provides status on:
— Whether or not Auto-Negotiation is complete
— Whether or not the Link Partner is advertising that a remote fault has occurred
— Whether or not valid link has been established
— Support for Management Frame Preamble suppression
The Auto-Negotiation Advertisement Register (ANAR) indicates the Auto-Negotiation abilities to be advertised by the
DP83849C. All available abilities are transmitted by
default, but any ability can be suppressed by writing to the
17

ANAR. Updating the ANAR to suppress an ability is one
way for a management agent to change (restrict) the technology that is used.
The Auto-Negotiation Link Partner Ability Register
(ANLPAR) at address 05h is used to receive the base link
code word as well as all next page code words during the
negotiation. Furthermore, the ANLPAR will be updated to
either 0081h or 0021h for parallel detection to either 100
Mb/s or 10 Mb/s respectively.
2.1.5 Enabling Auto-Negotiation via Software
It is important to note that if the DP83849C has been initialized upon power-up as a non-auto-negotiating device
(forced technology), and it is then required that Auto-Negotiation or re-Auto-Negotiation be initiated via software,
bit 12 (Auto-Negotiation Enable) of the Basic Mode Control
Register (BMCR) must first be cleared and then set for any
Auto-Negotiation function to take effect.
The Auto-Negotiation Expansion Register (ANER) indicates additional Auto-Negotiation status. The ANER provides status on:
2.1.6 Auto-Negotiation Complete Time
— Whether or not a Parallel Detect Fault has occurred
— Whether or not the Link Partner supports the Next Page
function
— Whether or not the DP83849C supports the Next Page
function
— Whether or not the current page being exchanged by
Auto-Negotiation has been received
— Whether or not the Link Partner supports Auto-Negotiation
Refer to Clause 28 of the IEEE 802.3u standard for a full
description of the individual timers related to Auto-Negotiation.
Parallel detection and Auto-Negotiation take approximately
2-3 seconds to complete. In addition, Auto-Negotiation with
next page should take approximately 2-3 seconds to complete, depending on the number of next pages sent.

The DP83849C supports PHY Address strapping of Port A
to even values 0 (<0000_0>) through 30 (<1111_0>). Port
B is strapped to odd values 1 (<0000_1>) through 31
(<1111_1>). Note that Port B address is always 1 greater
than Port A address.
For further detail relating to the latch-in timing requirements
of the PHY Address pins, as well as the other hardware
configuration pins, refer to the Reset summary in
Section 6.0.
The DP83849C can be put into MII Isolate mode by writing
to bit 10 of the BMCR register.
When in the MII isolate mode, the DP83849C does not
respond to packet data present at TXD[3:0], TX_EN inputs
and presents a high impedance on the TX_CLK, RX_CLK,
RX_DV, RX_ER, RXD[3:0], COL, and CRS outputs. When
in Isolate mode, the DP83849C will continue to respond to
all management transactions.
While in Isolate mode, the PMD output pair will not transmit
packet data but will continue to source 100BASE-TX
scrambled idles or 10BASE-T normal link pulses.

The DP83849C can Auto-Negotiate or parallel detect to a

2.4 LED Interface
The DP83849C supports three configurable Light Emitting
Diode (LED) pins for each port.
Several functions can be multiplexed onto the three LEDs
using three different modes of operation. The LED operation mode can be selected by writing to the LED_CFG[1:0]
register bits in the PHY Control Register (PHYCR) at
address 19h, bits [6:5]. In addition, LED_CFG[0] for each
port can be set by a strap option on the CRS_A and
CRS_B pins. LED_CFG[1] is only controllable through register access and cannot be set by as strap pin.

The LED_LINK pin in Mode 1 indicates the link status of
the port. In 100BASE-T mode, link is established as a
result of input receive amplitude compliant with the TPPMD specifications which will result in internal generation
of signal detect. A 10 Mb/s Link is established as a result of
the reception of at least seven consecutive normal Link
Pulses or the reception of a valid 10BASE-T packet. This
will cause the assertion of LED_LINK. LED_LINK will deassert in accordance with the Link Loss Timer as specified in
the IEEE 802.3 specification.
LED_ACT/LED_COL
The LED_ACT/LED_COL pin in Mode 3 indicates Duplex
status for 10 Mb/s or 100 Mb/s operation. The LED will be
ON for Full Duplex and OFF for Half Duplex.
In 10 Mb/s half duplex mode, the collision LED is based on
the COL signal.
Since these LED pins are also used as strap options, the
polarity of the LED is dependent on whether the pin is
pulled up or down.
The LED_LINK pin in Mode 1 will be OFF when no LINK is
present.
2.4.1 LEDs
The LED_LINK pin in Mode 2 and Mode 3 will be ON to
indicate Link is good and BLINK to indicate activity is
present on activity. The BLINK frequency is defined in
BLINK_FREQ, bits [7:6] of register LEDCR (18h).
Since the Auto-Negotiation (AN) strap options share the
LED output pins, the external components required for
strapping and LED usage must be considered in order to
avoid contention.
Activity is defined as configured in LEDACT_RX, bit 8 of
register LEDCR (18h). If LEDACT_RX is 0, Activity is signaled for either transmit or receive. If LEDACT_RX is 1,
Activity is only signaled for receive.
Specifically, when the LED outputs are used to drive LEDs
directly, the active state of each output driver is dependent
on the logic level sampled by the corresponding AN input
upon power-up/reset. For example, if a given AN input is
resistively pulled low then the corresponding output will be
configured as an active high driver. Conversely, if a given
AN input is resistively pulled high, then the corresponding
output will be configured as an active low driver.
The LED_SPEED pin indicates 10 or 100 Mb/s data rate of
the port. The LED is ON when operating in 100Mb/s mode
and OFF when operating in 10Mb/s mode. The functionality of this LED is independent of mode selected.
The LED_ACT/LED_COL pin in Mode 1 indicates the presence of either transmit or receive activity. The LED will be
ON for Activity and OFF for No Activity. In Mode 2, this pin
indicates the Collision status of the port. The LED will be
ON for Collision and OFF for No Collision.

Refer to Figure 3 for an example of AN connections to
external components at port A. In this example, the AN
strapping results in Auto-Negotiation disabled with 100

It is important to understand that while Auto-Negotiation
with the use of Fast Link Pulse code words can interpret
and configure to full-duplex operation, parallel detection
can not recognize the difference between full and halfduplex from a fixed 10 Mb/s or 100 Mb/s link partner over
twisted pair. As specified in the 802.3u specification, if a
far-end link partner is configured to a forced full duplex
100BASE-TX ability, the parallel detection state machine in
the partner would be unable to detect the full duplex capability of the far-end link partner. This link segment would
negotiate to a half duplex 100BASE-TX configuration
(same scenario for 10Mb/s).
The DP83849C includes a Loopback Test mode for facilitating system diagnostics. The Loopback mode is selected
through bit 14 (Loopback) of the Basic Mode Control Register (BMCR). Writing 1 to this bit enables MII transmit data
to be routed to the MII receive outputs. Loopback status
may be checked in bit 3 of the PHY Status Register
(PHYSTS). While in Loopback mode the data will not be
transmitted onto the media. To ensure that the desired
operating mode is maintained, Auto-Negotiation should be
disabled before selecting the Loopback mode.

2.4.2 LED Direct Control
The DP83849C provides another option to directly control
any or all LED outputs through the LED Direct Control Register (LEDCR), address 18h. The register does not provide
read access to LEDs.
The DP83849C incorporates an internal Built-in Self Test
(BIST) circuit to accommodate in-circuit testing or diagnostics. The BIST circuit can be utilized to test the integrity of
the transmit and receive data paths. BIST testing can be
performed with the part in the internal loopback mode or
externally looped back using a loopback cable fixture.
2.5 Half Duplex vs. Full Duplex
The BIST is implemented with independent transmit and
receive paths, with the transmit block generating a continuous stream of a pseudo random sequence. The user can
select a 9 bit or 15 bit pseudo random sequence from the
PSR_15 bit in the PHY Control Register (PHYCR). The
received data is compared to the generated pseudo-random data by the BIST Linear Feedback Shift Register
(LFSR) to determine the BIST pass/fail status.
The DP83849C supports both half and full duplex operation at both 10 Mb/s and 100 Mb/s speeds.
Half-duplex relies on the CSMA/CD protocol to handle collisions and network access. In Half-Duplex mode, CRS
responds to both transmit and receive activity in order to
maintain compliance with the IEEE 802.3 specification.
Since the DP83849C is designed to support simultaneous
transmit and receive activity it is capable of supporting fullduplex switched applications with a throughput of up to 200
Mb/s per port when operating in 100BASE-TX. Because
the CSMA/CD protocol does not apply to full-duplex operation, the DP83849C disables its own internal collision sensing and reporting functions and modifies the behavior of
Carrier Sense (CRS) such that it indicates only receive
activity. This allows a full-duplex capable MAC to operate
properly.
The pass/fail status of the BIST is stored in the BIST status
bit in the PHYCR register. The status bit defaults to 0 (BIST
fail) and will transition on a successful comparison. If an
error (mis-compare) occurs, the status bit is latched and is
cleared upon a subsequent write to the Start/Stop bit.
For transmit VOD testing, the Packet BIST Continuous
Mode can be used to allow continuous data transmission,
setting BIST_CONT_MODE, bit 5, of CDCTRL1 (1Bh).
The number of BIST errors can be monitored through the
BIST Error Count in the CDCTRL1 (1Bh), bits [15:8].

DP83849C
All modes of operation (100BASE-TX, 10BASE-T) can run
either half-duplex or full-duplex. Additionally, other than
CRS and Collision reporting, all remaining MII signaling
remains the same regardless of the selected duplex mode.
DP83849C
3.0 MAC Interface
The DP83849C supports several modes of operation using
the MII interface pins. The options are defined in the following sections and include:
— MII Mode
— RMII Mode
— 10 Mb Serial Network Interface (SNI)
The modes of operation can be selected by strap options
or register control. For RMII mode, it is required to use the
strap option, since it requires a 50 MHz clock instead of the
normal 25 MHz.
In each of these modes, the IEEE 802.3 serial management interface is operational for device configuration and
status. The serial management interface of the MII allows
for the configuration and control of multiple PHY devices,
gathering of status, error information, and the determination of the type and capabilities of the attached PHY(s).
3.1 MII Interface
The DP83849C incorporates the Media Independent Interface (MII) as specified in Clause 22 of the IEEE 802.3u
standard. This interface may be used to connect PHY
devices to a MAC in 10/100 Mb/s systems. This section
describes the nibble wide MII data interface.
The nibble wide MII data interface consists of a receive bus
and a transmit bus each with control signals to facilitate
data transfer between the PHY and the upper layer (MAC).
3.1.1 Nibble-wide MII Data Interface
Clause 22 of the IEEE 802.3u specification defines the
Media Independent Interface. This interface includes a
dedicated receive bus and a dedicated transmit bus. These
two data buses, along with various control and status signals, allow for the simultaneous exchange of data between
the DP83849C and the upper layer agent (MAC).
The receive interface consists of a nibble wide data bus
RXD[3:0], a receive error signal RX_ER, a receive data
valid flag RX_DV, and a receive clock RX_CLK for synchronous transfer of the data. The receive clock operates
at either 2.5 MHz to support 10 Mb/s operation modes or at
25 MHz to support 100 Mb/s operational modes.
transmit clock TX_CLK which runs at either 2.5 MHz or 25
MHz.
Additionally, the MII includes the carrier sense signal CRS,
as well as a collision detect signal COL. The CRS signal
asserts to indicate the reception of data from the network
or as a function of transmit data in Half Duplex mode. The
COL signal asserts as an indication of a collision which can
occur during half-duplex operation when both a transmit
and receive operation occur simultaneously.
3.1.2 Collision Detect
For Half Duplex, a 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX collision is
detected when the receive and transmit channels are
active simultaneously. Collisions are reported by the COL
signal on the MII.
If the DP83849C is transmitting in 10 Mb/s mode when a
collision is detected, the collision is not reported until seven
bits have been received while in the collision state. This
prevents a collision being reported incorrectly due to noise
on the network. The COL signal remains set for the duration of the collision.
If a collision occurs during a receive operation, it is immediately reported by the COL signal.
When heartbeat is enabled (only applicable to 10 Mb/s
operation), approximately 1µs after the transmission of
each packet, a Signal Quality Error (SQE) signal of approximately 10 bit times is generated (internally) to indicate
successful transmission. SQE is reported as a pulse on the
COL signal of the MII.
3.1.3 Carrier Sense
Carrier Sense (CRS) is asserted due to receive activity,
once valid data is detected via the squelch function during
10 Mb/s operation. During 100 Mb/s operation CRS is
asserted when a valid link (SD) and two non-contiguous
zeros are detected on the line.
For 10 or 100 Mb/s Half Duplex operation, CRS is asserted
during either packet transmission or reception.
For 10 or 100 Mb/s Full Duplex operation, CRS is asserted
only due to receive activity.
CRS is deasserted following an end of packet.
The transmit interface consists of a nibble wide data bus
TXD[3:0], a transmit enable control signal TX_EN, and a
www.national.com
22
The DP83849C incorporates the Reduced Media Independent Interface (RMII) as specified in the RMII specification
(rev1.2) from the RMII Consortium. This interface may be
used to connect PHY devices to a MAC in 10/100 Mb/s
systems using a reduced number of pins. In this mode,
data is transferred 2-bits at a time using the 50 MHz
RMII_REF clock for both transmit and receive. The following pins are used in RMII mode:
— TX_EN
— TXD[1:0]
— RX_ER (optional for Mac)
— CRS_DV
— RXD[1:0]
— X1 (RMII Reference clock is 50 MHz)
In addition, the RMII mode supplies an RX_DV signal
which allows for a simpler method of recovering receive
data without having to separate RX_DV from the CRS_DV
indication. This is especially useful for diagnostic testing
where it may be desirable to externally loop Receive MII
data directly to the transmitter.
The RX_ER output may be used by the MAC to detect
error conditions. It is asserted for symbol errors received
during a packet, False Carrier events, and also for FIFO
underrun or overrun conditions. Since the Phy is required
to corrupt receive data on an error, a MAC is not required
to use RX_ER.
It is important to note that since both digital channels in the
DP83849C share the X1/RMII_REF input, both channels
must have RMII mode enabled or both channels must have
RMII mode disabled. Either channel may be in 10Mb or
100Mb mode in RMII or non-RMII mode.
Since the reference clock operates at 10 times the data
rate for 10 Mb/s operation, transmit data is sampled every
10 clocks. Likewise, receive data will be generated every
10th clock so that an attached device can sample the data
every 10 clocks.
RMII mode requires a 50 MHz oscillator be connected to
the device X1 pin. A 50 MHz crystal is not supported.
To tolerate potential frequency differences between the 50
MHz reference clock and the recovered receive clock, the
receive RMII function includes a programmable elasticity
buffer. The elasticity buffer is programmable to minimize
propagation delay based on expected packet size and
clock accuracy. This allows for supporting a range of
packet sizes including jumbo frames.
The elasticity buffer will force Frame Check Sequence
errors for packets which overrun or underrun the FIFO.
Underrun and Overrun conditions can be reported in the
RMII and Bypass Register (RBR). The following table indicates how to program the elasticity buffer fifo (in 4-bit increments) based on expected max packet size and clock
accuracy. It assumes both clocks (RMII Reference clock
and far-end Transmitter clock) have the same accuracy.
Packet lengths can be scaled linearly based on accuracy
(+/- 25ppm would allows packets twice as large). If the
threshold setting must support both 10Mb and 100Mb
operation, the setting should be made to support both
speeds.

DP83849C
3.3 10 Mb Serial Network Interface (SNI)
The DP83849C incorporates a 10 Mb Serial Network Interface (SNI) which allows a simple serial data interface for 10
Mb only devices. This is also referred to as a 7-wire interface. While there is no defined standard for this interface, it
is based on early 10 Mb physical layer devices. Data is
clocked serially at 10 MHz using separate transmit and
receive paths. The following pins are used in SNI mode:

management entity sends a sequence of 32 contiguous
logic ones on MDIO to provide the DP83849C with a
sequence that can be used to establish synchronization.
This preamble may be generated either by driving MDIO
high for 32 consecutive MDC clock cycles, or by simply
allowing the MDIO pull-up resistor to pull the MDIO pin high
during which time 32 MDC clock cycles are provided. In
addition 32 MDC clock cycles should be used to re-sync
the device if an invalid start, opcode, or turnaround bit is
detected.
The DP83849C waits until it has received this preamble
sequence before responding to any other transaction.
Once the DP83849C serial management port has been initialized no further preamble sequencing is required until
after a power-on/reset, invalid Start, invalid Opcode, or
invalid turnaround bit has occurred.
The Start code is indicated by a <01> pattern. This assures
the MDIO line transitions from the default idle line state.
3.4 802.3u MII Serial Management Interface
3.4.1 Serial Management Register Access
The serial management MII specification defines a set of
thirty-two 16-bit status and control registers that are accessible through the management interface pins MDC and
MDIO. The DP83849C implements all the required MII registers as well as several optional registers. These registers
are fully described in Section 7.0. A description of the serial
management access protocol follows.
3.4.2 Serial Management Access Protocol
The serial control interface consists of two pins, Management Data Clock (MDC) and Management Data Input/Output (MDIO). MDC has a maximum clock rate of 25 MHz
and no minimum rate. The MDIO line is bi-directional and
may be shared by up to 32 devices. The MDIO frame format is shown below in Table 5.
Turnaround is defined as an idle bit time inserted between
the Register Address field and the Data field. To avoid contention during a read transaction, no device shall actively
drive the MDIO signal during the first bit of Turnaround.
The addressed DP83849C drives the MDIO with a zero for
the second bit of turnaround and follows this with the
required data. Figure 4 shows the timing relationship
between MDC and the MDIO as driven/received by the Station (STA) and the DP83849C (PHY) for a typical register
read access.
For write transactions, the station management entity
writes data to the addressed DP83849C thus eliminating
the requirement for MDIO Turnaround. The Turnaround
time is filled by the management entity by inserting <10>.
Figure 5 shows the timing relationship for a typical MII register write access.
In addition, the MDIO pin requires a pull-up resistor (1.5
kΩ) which, during IDLE and turnaround, will pull MDIO
high. In order to initialize the MDIO interface, the station

3.4.3 Serial Management Preamble Suppression
The DP83849C supports a Preamble Suppression mode
as indicated by a one in bit 6 of the Basic Mode Status
Register (BMSR, address 01h.) If the station management
entity (i.e. MAC or other management controller) determines that all PHYs in the system support Preamble Suppression by returning a one in this bit, then the station
management entity need not generate preamble for each
management transaction.
The DP83849C requires a single initialization sequence of
32 bits of preamble following hardware/software reset. This
requirement is generally met by the mandatory pull-up
resistor on MDIO in conjunction with a continuous MDC, or
the management access made to determine whether Preamble Suppression is supported.
While the DP83849C requires an initial preamble
sequence of 32 bits for management initialization, it does
not require a full 32-bit sequence between each subsequent transaction. A minimum of one idle bit between management transactions is required as specified in the IEEE
802.3u specification.
3.4.4 Simultaneous Register Write
The DP83849C incorporates a mode which allows simultaneous write access to both Port A and B register blocks at
the same time. This mode is selected by setting bit 15 of
RMII and Bypass Register (RBR, address 17h) in Port A.
As long as this bit remains set, subsequent writes to Port A
will write to registers in both ports. Register reads are unaffected. Each port must still be read individually.

DP83849C
4.1.1 Code-group Encoding and Injection
The code-group encoder converts 4-bit (4B) nibble data
generated by the MAC into 5-bit (5B) code-groups for
transmission. This conversion is required to allow control
data to be combined with packet data code-groups. Refer
to Table 13 for 4B to 5B code-group mapping details.
The code-group encoder substitutes the first 8-bits of the
MAC preamble with a J/K code-group pair (11000 10001)
upon transmission. The code-group encoder continues to
replace subsequent 4B preamble and data nibbles with
corresponding 5B code-groups. At the end of the transmit
packet, upon the deassertion of Transmit Enable signal
from the MAC, the code-group encoder injects the T/R
code-group pair (01101 00111) indicating the end of the
frame.
After the T/R code-group pair, the code-group encoder
continuously injects IDLEs into the transmit data stream
until the next transmit packet is detected (reassertion of
Transmit Enable).
4.1.2 Scrambler
The scrambler is required to control the radiated emissions
at the media connector and on the twisted pair cable (for
100BASE-TX applications). By scrambling the data, the
total energy launched onto the cable is randomly distributed over a wide frequency range. Without the scrambler,
energy levels at the PMD and on the cable could peak
beyond FCC limitations at frequencies related to repeating
5B sequences (i.e., continuous transmission of IDLEs).
transmit transformer primary winding, resulting in a MLT-3
signal.
The 100BASE-TX MLT-3 signal sourced by the PMD Output Pair common driver is slew rate controlled. This should
be considered when selecting AC coupling magnetics to
ensure TP-PMD Standard compliant transition times (3 ns
< Tr < 5 ns).
The 100BASE-TX transmit TP-PMD function within the
DP83849C is capable of sourcing only MLT-3 encoded
data. Binary output from the PMD Output Pair is not possible in 100 Mb/s mode.
4.2 100BASE-TX RECEIVER
The 100BASE-TX receiver consists of several functional
blocks which convert the scrambled MLT-3 125 Mb/s serial
data stream to synchronous 4-bit nibble data that is provided to the MII. Because the 100BASE-TX TP-PMD is
integrated, the differential input pins, RD±, can be directly
routed from the AC coupling magnetics.
See Figure 7 for a block diagram of the 100BASE-TX
receive function. This provides an overview of each functional block within the 100BASE-TX receive section.
The Receive section consists of the following functional
blocks:

4.2.2.1 Digital Adaptive Equalization and Gain Control
When transmitting data at high speeds over copper twisted
pair cable, frequency dependent attenuation becomes a
concern. In high-speed twisted pair signalling, the frequency content of the transmitted signal can vary greatly
during normal operation based primarily on the randomness of the scrambled data stream. This variation in signal
attenuation caused by frequency variations must be compensated to ensure the integrity of the transmission.
In order to ensure quality transmission when employing
MLT-3 encoding, the compensation must be able to adapt
to various cable lengths and cable types depending on the
installed environment. The selection of long cable lengths
for a given implementation, requires significant compensation which will over-compensate for shorter, less attenuating lengths. Conversely, the selection of short or
intermediate cable lengths requiring less compensation will
cause serious under-compensation for longer length
cables. The compensation or equalization must be adap-
tive to ensure proper conditioning of the received signal
independent of the cable length.
The DP83849C utilizes an extremely robust equalization
scheme referred as ‘Digital Adaptive Equalization.’
The Digital Equalizer removes ISI (inter symbol interference) from the receive data stream by continuously adapting to provide a filter with the inverse frequency response
of the channel. Equalization is combined with an adaptive
gain control stage. This enables the receive 'eye pattern' to
be opened sufficiently to allow very reliable data recovery.
The curves given in Figure 9 illustrate attenuation at certain
frequencies for given cable lengths. This is derived from
the worst case frequency vs. attenuation figures as specified in the EIA/TIA Bulletin TSB-36. These curves indicate
the significant variations in signal attenuation that must be
compensated for by the receive adaptive equalization circuit.

medium. (i.e., copper wire).
BLW results from the interaction between the low frequency components of a transmitted bit stream and the frequency response of the AC coupling component(s) within
the transmission system. If the low frequency content of
the digital bit stream goes below the low frequency pole of
the AC coupling transformers then the droop characteristics of the transformers will dominate resulting in potentially
serious BLW.
The digital oscilloscope plot provided in Figure 10 illustrates the severity of the BLW event that can theoretically
be generated during 100BASE-TX packet transmission.
This event consists of approximately 800 mV of DC offset
for a period of 120 µs. Left uncompensated, events such as
this can cause packet loss.

to meet the specifications mandated by the ANSI FDDI TP-

required in order to present NRZ formatted data to the
descrambler.

converter which supplies 5-bit wide data symbols to the
PCS Rx state machine.

DP83849C
4.2.7 Descrambler
Signal detect must be valid for 395us to allow the link monitor to enter the 'Link Up' state, and enable the transmit and
receive functions.
A serial descrambler is used to de-scramble the received
NRZ data. The descrambler has to generate an identical
data scrambling sequence (N) in order to recover the original unscrambled data (UD) from the scrambled data (SD)
4.2.11 Bad SSD Detection
as represented in the equations:
SD = ( UD ⊕ N )
UD = ( SD ⊕ N )
Synchronization of the descrambler to the original scrambling sequence (N) is achieved based on the knowledge
that the incoming scrambled data stream consists of
scrambled IDLE data. After the descrambler has recognized 12 consecutive IDLE code-groups, where an
unscrambled IDLE code-group in 5B NRZ is equal to five
consecutive ones (11111), it will synchronize to the receive
data stream and generate unscrambled data in the form of
unaligned 5B code-groups.
In order to maintain synchronization, the descrambler must
continuously monitor the validity of the unscrambled data
that it generates. To ensure this, a line state monitor and a
hold timer are used to constantly monitor the synchronization status. Upon synchronization of the descrambler the
hold timer starts a 722 µs countdown. Upon detection of
sufficient IDLE code-groups (58 bit times) within the 722 µs
period, the hold timer will reset and begin a new countdown. This monitoring operation will continue indefinitely
given a properly operating network connection with good
signal integrity. If the line state monitor does not recognize
sufficient unscrambled IDLE code-groups within the 722 µs
period, the entire descrambler will be forced out of the current state of synchronization and reset in order to reacquire synchronization.
4.2.8 Code-group Alignment
The code-group alignment module operates on unaligned
5-bit data from the descrambler (or, if the descrambler is
bypassed, directly from the NRZI/NRZ decoder) and converts it into 5B code-group data (5 bits). Code-group alignment occurs after the J/K code-group pair is detected.
Once the J/K code-group pair (11000 10001) is detected,
subsequent data is aligned on a fixed boundary.
A Bad Start of Stream Delimiter (Bad SSD) is any transition
from consecutive idle code-groups to non-idle code-groups
which is not prefixed by the code-group pair /J/K.
If this condition is detected, the DP83849C will assert
RX_ER and present RXD[3:0] = 1110 to the MII for the
cycles that correspond to received 5B code-groups until at
least two IDLE code groups are detected. In addition, the
False Carrier Sense Counter register (FCSCR) will be
incremented by one.
Once at least two IDLE code groups are detected, RX_ER
and CRS become de-asserted.
4.3 10BASE-T TRANSCEIVER MODULE
The 10BASE-T Transceiver Module is IEEE 802.3 compliant. It includes the receiver, transmitter, collision, heartbeat, loopback, jabber, and link integrity functions, as
defined in the standard. An external filter is not required on
the 10BASE-T interface since this is integrated inside the
DP83849C. This section focuses on the general 10BASE-T
system level operation.
4.3.1 Operational Modes
The DP83849C has two basic 10BASE-T operational
modes:
— Half Duplex mode
— Full Duplex mode
Half Duplex Mode
In Half Duplex mode the DP83849C functions as a standard IEEE 802.3 10BASE-T transceiver supporting the
CSMA/CD protocol.
Full Duplex Mode
4.2.9 4B/5B Decoder
The code-group decoder functions as a look up table that
translates incoming 5B code-groups into 4B nibbles. The
code-group decoder first detects the J/K code-group pair
preceded by IDLE code-groups and replaces the J/K with
MAC preamble. Specifically, the J/K 10-bit code-group pair
is replaced by the nibble pair (0101 0101). All subsequent
5B code-groups are converted to the corresponding 4B
nibbles for the duration of the entire packet. This conversion ceases upon the detection of the T/R code-group pair
denoting the End of Stream Delimiter (ESD) or with the
reception of a minimum of two IDLE code-groups.
4.2.10 100BASE-TX Link Integrity Monitor
The 100 Base TX Link monitor ensures that a valid and stable link is established before enabling both the Transmit
and Receive PCS layer.
www.national.com
In Full Duplex mode the DP83849C is capable of simultaneously transmitting and receiving without asserting the
collision signal. The DP83849C's 10 Mb/s ENDEC is
designed to encode and decode simultaneously.
4.3.2 Smart Squelch
The smart squelch is responsible for determining when
valid data is present on the differential receive inputs. The
DP83849C implements an intelligent receive squelch to
ensure that impulse noise on the receive inputs will not be
mistaken for a valid signal. Smart squelch operation is
independent of the 10BASE-T operational mode.
The squelch circuitry employs a combination of amplitude
and timing measurements (as specified in the IEEE 802.3
10BSE-T standard) to determine the validity of data on the
twisted pair inputs (refer to Figure 11).
32
<150 ns
Only after all these conditions have been satisfied will a
control signal be generated to indicate to the remainder of
the circuitry that valid data is present. At this time, the
smart squelch circuitry is reset.
Valid data is considered to be present until the squelch
level has not been generated for a time longer than 150 ns,
indicating the End of Packet. Once good data has been
detected, the squelch levels are reduced to minimize the
effect of noise causing premature End of Packet detection.

DP83849C
The signal at the start of a packet is checked by the smart
squelch and any pulses not exceeding the squelch level
(either positive or negative, depending upon polarity) will
be rejected. Once this first squelch level is overcome correctly, the opposite squelch level must then be exceeded
within 150 ns. Finally the signal must again exceed the
original squelch level within 150 ns to ensure that the input
waveform will not be rejected. This checking procedure
results in the loss of typically three preamble bits at the
beginning of each packet.
DP83849C
4.3.3 Collision Detection and SQE
When in Half Duplex, a 10BASE-T collision is detected
when the receive and transmit channels are active simultaneously. Collisions are reported by the COL signal on the
MII. Collisions are also reported when a jabber condition is
detected.
The COL signal remains set for the duration of the collision.
If the PHY is receiving when a collision is detected it is
reported immediately (through the COL pin).
When heartbeat is enabled, approximately 1 µs after the
transmission of each packet, a Signal Quality Error (SQE)
signal of approximately 10-bit times is generated to indicate successful transmission. SQE is reported as a pulse
on the COL signal of the MII.
The SQE test is inhibited when the PHY is set in full duplex
mode. SQE can also be inhibited by setting the
HEARTBEAT_DIS bit in the 10BTSCR register.
Once disabled by the Jabber function, the transmitter stays
disabled for the entire time that the ENDEC module's internal transmit enable is asserted. This signal has to be deasserted for approximately 500 ms (the “unjab” time)
before the Jabber function re-enables the transmit outputs.
The Jabber function is only relevant in 10BASE-T mode.
4.3.7 Automatic Link Polarity Detection and Correction
The DP83849C's 10BASE-T transceiver module incorporates an automatic link polarity detection circuit. When
three consecutive inverted link pulses are received, bad
polarity is reported.
A polarity reversal can be caused by a wiring error at either
end of the cable, usually at the Main Distribution Frame
(MDF) or patch panel in the wiring closet.
4.3.4 Carrier Sense
The bad polarity condition is latched in the 10BTSCR register. The DP83849C's 10BASE-T transceiver module corrects for this error internally and will continue to decode
received data correctly. This eliminates the need to correct
the wiring error immediately.
Carrier Sense (CRS) may be asserted due to receive activity once valid data is detected via the squelch function.
4.3.8 Transmit and Receive Filtering
For 10 Mb/s Half Duplex operation, CRS is asserted during
either packet transmission or reception.
For 10 Mb/s Full Duplex operation, CRS is asserted only
during receive activity.
CRS is deasserted following an end of packet.
4.3.5 Normal Link Pulse Detection/Generation
External 10BASE-T filters are not required when using the
DP83849C, as the required signal conditioning is integrated into the device.
Only isolation transformers and impedance matching resistors are required for the 10BASE-T transmit and receive
interface. The internal transmit filtering ensures that all the
harmonics in the transmit signal are attenuated by at least
30 dB.
The link pulse generator produces pulses as defined in the
IEEE 802.3 10BASE-T standard. Each link pulse is nominally 100 ns in duration and transmitted every 16 ms in the 4.3.9 Transmitter

4.3.6 Jabber Function
4.3.10 Receiver
The jabber function monitors the DP83849C's output and
disables the transmitter if it attempts to transmit a packet of
longer than legal size. A jabber timer monitors the transmitter and disables the transmission if the transmitter is active
for approximately 85 ms.
The decoder detects the end of a frame when no additional
mid-bit transitions are detected. Within one and a half bit
times after the last bit, carrier sense is de-asserted.
Receive clock stays active for five more bit times after CRS
goes low, to guarantee the receive timings of the controller.

5.2 ESD Protection
Typically, ESD precautions are predominantly in effect
when handling the devices or board before being installed
in a system. In those cases, strict handling procedures
need be implemented during the manufacturing process to
greatly reduce the occurrences of catastrophic ESD
events. After the system is assembled, internal components are less sensitive from ESD events.
capacitor values will vary with the crystal vendors; check
with the vendor for the recommended loads.
The oscillator circuit is designed to drive a parallel resonance AT cut crystal with a minimum drive level of 100µW
and a maximum of 500µW. If a crystal is specified for a
lower drive level, a current limiting resistor should be

5.4 Power Feedback Circuit
To ensure correct operation for the DP83849C, parallel
caps with values of 10 µF and 0.1 µF should be placed
close to pin 31 (PFBOUT) of the device. Pin 7 (PFBIN1),
pin 28 (PFBIN2), pin 34 (PFBIN3) and pin 54 (PFBIN4)
must be connected to pin 31 (PFBOUT), each pin requires
a small capacitor (.1 µF). See Figure 14 below for proper
connections.

DP83849C
5.5 Power Down/Interrupt
5.6 Energy Detect Mode
The Power Down and Interrupt functions are multiplexed
on pin 18 and pin 44 of the device. By default, this pin functions as a power down input and the interrupt function is
disabled. Setting bit 0 (INT_OE) of MICR (11h) will configure the pin as an active low interrupt output. Ports A and B
can be powered down individually, using the separate
PWRDOWN_INT_A and PWRDOWN_INT_B pins.
When Energy Detect is enabled and there is no activity on
the cable, the DP83849C will remain in a low power mode
while monitoring the transmission line. Activity on the line
will cause the DP83849C to go through a normal power up
sequence. Regardless of cable activity, the DP83849C will
occasionally wake up the transmitter to put ED pulses on
the line, but will otherwise draw as little power as possible.
Energy detect functionality is controlled via register Energy
Detect Control (EDCR), address 1Dh.
5.5.1 Power Down Control Mode
The PWRDOWN_INT pins can be asserted low to put the
device in a Power Down mode. This is equivalent to setting
bit 11 (Power Down) in the Basic Mode Control Register,
BMCR (00h). An external control signal can be used to
drive the pin low, overcoming the weak internal pull-up
resistor. Alternatively, the device can be configured to initialize into a Power Down state by use of an external pulldown resistor on the PWRDOWN_INT pin. Since the
device will still respond to management register accesses,
setting the INT_OE bit in the MICR register will disable the
PWRDOWN_INT input, allowing the device to exit the
Power Down state.
5.7 Link Diagnostic Capabilities
5.5.2 Interrupt Mechanisms
5.7.1 Linked Cable Status
Since each port has a separate interrupt pin, the interrupts
can be connected individually or may be combined in a
wired-OR fashion. If the interrupts share a single connection, each port status should be checked following an interrupt.
In an active connection with a valid link status, the following
diagnostic capabilities are available:
The DP83849C contains several system diagnostic capabilities for evaluating link quality and detecting potential
cabling faults in Twisted Pair cabling. Software configuration is available through the Link Diagnostics Registers Page 2 which can be selected via Page Select Register
(PAGESEL), address 13h. These capabilities include:
— Linked Cable Status
— Link Quality Monitor
— TDR (Time Domain Reflectometry) Cable Diagnostics
— Polarity reversal
— Cable swap (MDI vs MDIX) detection
The interrupt function is controlled via register access. All — 100Mb Cable Length Estimation

mode of operation or in a parallel detected 100Mb mode.
When PWRDOWN_INT pin asserts low, the user would
read the MISR register to see if the ED_INT or LINK_INT
bits are set, i.e. which source caused the interrupt. After
reading the MISR, the interrupt bits should clear and the
PWRDOWN_INT pin will deassert.
www.national.com
5.7.1.2 Cable Swap Indication
As part of Auto-Negotiation, the DP83849C has the ability
(using Auto-MDIX) to automatically detect a cable with
swapped MDI pairs and select the appropriate pairs for
transmitting and receiving data. Normal operation is
termed MDI, while crossed operation is MDIX. The MDIX
status can be read from bit 14 of the PHYSTS (10h).
38
The DP83849C provides a method of estimating cable
length based on electrical characteristics of the 100Mb
Link. This essentially provides an effective cable length
rather than a measurement of the physical cable length.
The cable length estimation is only available in 100Mb
mode of operation with a valid Link status. The cable
length estimation is available at the Link Diagnostics Registers - Page 2, register 100Mb Length Detect
(LEN100_DET), address 14h.
Software is expected to read initial adapted values and
then program the thresholds based on an expected valid
range. This mechanism takes advantage of the fact that
the DSP adaption should remain in a relatively small range
once a valid link has been established.
5.7.2.1 Link Quality Monitor Control and Status
Control of the Link Quality Monitor is done through the Link
Quality Monitor Register (LQMR), address 1Dh and the
Link Quality Data Register (LQDR), address 1Bh of the
Link Diagnostics Registers - Page 2. The LQMR register
5.7.1.4 Frequency Offset Relative to Link Partner

15h, of the Link Diagnostics Registers - Page 2.
Two different versions of the Frequency Offset may be
monitored through bits [7:0] of register FREQ100 (15h).
The first is the long-term Frequency Offset. The second is
the current Frequency Control value, which includes shortterm phase adjustments and can provide information on
the amount of jitter in the system.
5.7.1.5 Cable Signal Quality Estimation
5.7.2.2 Checking Current Parameter Values
Prior to setting Threshold values, it is recommended that
software check current adapted values. The thresholds
may then be set relative to the adapted values. The current
adapted values can be read using the LQDR register by
setting the Sample_Param bit [13] of LQDR, address
(1Eh).
The cable signal quality estimator keeps a simple tracking
of results of the DSP and can be used to generate an
approximate Signal-to-Noise Ratio for the 100Mb receiver.
This information is available to software through the Link
Diagnostics Registers - Page 2: Variance Control
(VAR_CTRL), address 1Ah and Data (VAR_DATA),
address 1Bh.
For example, to read the DBLW current value:
The variance computation times (VAR_TIMER) can be
chosen from the set of {2, 4, 6, 8} ms. The 32-bit variance
sum can be read by two consecutive reads of the
VAR_DATA register. This sum can be used to compute an
SNR estimate by software using the following equation:
5.7.2.3 Threshold Control
SNR = 10log10((37748736 * VAR_TIMER) / Variance).
5.7.2 Link Quality Monitor
The Link Quality Monitor allows a method to generate an
alarm when the DSP adaption strays from a programmable
window. This could occur due to changes in the cable
which could indicate a potential problem. Software can
program thresholds for the following DSP parameters to be
used to interrupt the system:

1. Write 2400h to LQDR (1Eh) to set the Sample_Param
bit and set the LQ_PARAM_SEL[2:0] to 010.
2. Read LQDR (1Eh). Current DBLW value is returned
in the low 8 bits.
The LQDR (1Eh) register also provides a method of programming high and low thresholds for each of the four
parameters that can be monitored. The register implements an indirect read/write mechanism.
Writes are accomplished by writing data, address, and a
write strobe to the register. Reads are accomplished by
writing the address to the register, and reading back the
value of the selected threshold. Setting thresholds to the
maximum or minimum values will disable the threshold
comparison since values have to exceed the threshold to
generate a warning condition.
Warnings are not generated if the parameter is equal to the
threshold. By default, all thresholds are disabled by setting
to the min or max values. The following table shows the
four parameters and range of values:

5.7.3 TDR Cable Diagnostics
The DP83849C implements a Time Domain Reflectometry
(TDR) method of cable length measurement and evaluation which can be used to evaluate a connected twisted
pair cable. The TDR implementation involves sending a
pulse out on either the Transmit or Receive conductor pair
and observing the results on either pair. By observing the
types and strength of reflections on each pair, software can
determine the following:
—

records the time, in 8ns intervals, at which the peak or
threshold value first occurs.
The TDR monitor implements a timer that starts when the
pulse is transmitted. A window may be enabled to qualify
incoming data to look for response only in a desired range.
This is especially useful for eliminating the transmitted
pulse, but also may be used to look for multiple reflections.
5.7.3.3 TDR Control Interface
The TDR Control interface is implemented in the Link Diagnostics Registers - Page 2 through TDR Control
(TDR_CTRL), address 16h and TDR Window (TDR_WIN),
address 17h. The following basic controls are:
The TDR cable diagnostics works best in certain conditions. For example, an unterminated cable provides a
good reflection for measuring cable length, while a cable
with an ideal termination to an unpowered partner may provide no reflection at all.
— TDR Enable: Enable bit 15 of TDR_CTRL (16h) to allow
the TDR function. This bypasses normal operation and
gives control of the CD10 and CD100 block to the TDR
function.
— TDR Send Pulse: Enable bit 11 of TDR_CTRL (16h) to
send the TDR pulse and starts the TDR Monitor.
The following Transmit mode controls are available:

5.7.3.4 TDR Results
The TDR function monitors data from the Analog to Digital
Converter (ADC) to detect both peak values and values
above a programmable threshold. It can be programmed
to detect maximum or minimum values. In addition, it
records the time, in 8ns intervals, at which the peak or
threshold value first occurs. The results of a TDR peak and
threshold measurement are available in the TDR Peak
Measurement Register (TDR_PEAK), address 18h and
TDR Threshold Measurement Register (TDR_THR),
address 19h. The threshold measurement may be a more
accurate method of measuring the length for longer cables
to provide a better indication of the start of the received
pulse, rather than the peak value.
Software utilizing the TDR function should implement an
algorithm to send TDR pulses and evaluate results. Multiple runs should be used to best qualify any received pulses
as multiple reflections could exist. In addition, when monitoring the transmitting pair, the window feature should be
used to disqualify the transmitted pulse. Multiple runs may
also be used to average the values providing more accurate results.
Actual distance measurements are dependent on the
velocity of propagation of the cable. The delay value is typically on the order of 4.6 to 4.9 ns/m.

www.national.com
DP83849C
— Receive Window: The receiver can monitor receive
data within a programmable window using the TDR Window Register (TDR_WIN), address 17h. The window is
controlled by two register values: TDR Start Window, bits
[15:8] of TDR_WIN (17h) and TDR Stop Window, bits
[7:0] of TDR_WIN (17h). The TDR Start Window indicates the first clock to start sampling. The TDR Stop
Window indicates the last clock to sample. By default,
the full window is enabled, with Start set to 0 and Stop
set to 255. The window range is in 8ns clock increments,
so the maximum window size is 2048ns.
DP83849C
6.0 Reset Operation
The DP83849C includes an internal power-on reset (POR)
function and does not need to be explicitly reset for normal
operation after power up. If required during normal operation, the device can be reset by a hardware or software
reset.
(BMCR). The period from the point in time when the reset
bit is set to the point in time when software reset has concluded is approximately 1 µs.
The software reset will reset the device such that all registers will be reset to default values and the hardware configuration values will be maintained. Software driver code
must wait 3 µs following a software reset before allowing
further serial MII operations with the DP83849C.
6.1 Hardware Reset
A hardware reset is accomplished by applying a low pulse
(TTL level), with a duration of at least 1 µs, to the
RESET_N pin. This will reset the device such that all registers will be reinitialized to default values and the hardware
configuration values will be re-latched into the device (similar to the power-up/reset operation).
6.3 Soft Reset
A partial software reset can be initiated by setting the Soft
Reset bit (bit 9) in the PHYCR2 Register. Setting this bit will
reset all transmit and receive operations, but will not reset
the register space. All register configurations will be preserved. Register space will remain available following a
Soft Reset.
6.2 Full Software Reset
A full-chip software reset is accomplished by setting the
reset bit (bit 15) of the Basic Mode Control Register

RESTART
AUTO-NEGOTIATION
0, RW/SC
Restart Auto-Negotiation:
1 = Restart Auto-Negotiation. Re-initiates the Auto-Negotiation process. If Auto-Negotiation is disabled (bit 12 = 0), this bit is ignored. This
bit is self-clearing and will return a value of 1 until Auto-Negotiation is
initiated, whereupon it will self-clear. Operation of the Auto-Negotiation
process is not affected by the management entity clearing this bit.
0 = Normal operation.
8

Note1: Due to the nature of the descrambler function, all 100BASE-TX Loopback modes will cause an initial “dead-time”
of up to 550 µs during which time no data will be present at the receive MII outputs. The 100BASE-TX timing specified is
based on device delays after the initial 550µs “dead-time”.
Note2: Measurement is made from the first rising edge of TX_CLK after assertion of TX_EN.

Note: Per the RMII Specification, output delays assume a 25pF load.
Note: CRS_DV is asserted asynchronously in order to minimize latency of control signals through the Phy. CRS_DV may
toggle synchronously at the end of the packet to indicate CRS deassertion.
Note: RX_DV is synchronous to X1. While not part of the RMII specification, this signal is provided to simplify recovery of
receive data.
Note: CRS ON delay is measured from the first bit of the JK symbol on the PMD Receive Pair to initial assertion of
CRS_DV.
Note: CRS_OFF delay is measured from the first bit of the TR symbol on the PMD Receive Pair to initial deassertion of
CRS_DV.
Note: Receive Latency is measured from the first bit of the symbol pair on the PMD Receive Pair. Typical values are with
the Elasticity Buffer set to the default value (01).
