Preliminary Data Sheet
AC101L
8/9/04
S e c t io n 1 : F un c t i o na l D e s c r ip t io n
The AC101L is a single-chip, Fast Ethernet transceiver. It performs all of the physical layer interface functions for
100BASE-TX full-duplex or half-duplex on Category 5 twisted-pair cable, and 10BASE-T full-duplex or half-duplex on
Category 3 cable. It can be configured for 100BASE-FX full- or half-duplex transmission over fiber-optic cable when paired
with an external fiber-optic line driver and receiver.
The chip performs 4B5B, MLT3, NRZI, encoder/decoder, link monitor, auto-negotiation selection, adaptive equalization,
clock/data recovery, baseline wander correction, multimode transmitter, scrambler/descrambler, far-end fault (FEF), and
auto-MDI/MDIX. It can be connected to a MAC switch controller through the MII on one side and directly to the media on the
other side through a transformer for twisted-pair (TP) mode, or fiber-optic module for FX mode. It is fully compliant with the
IEEE 802.3 and 803.3u standards.
ENCODER/DECODER
In 100BASE-TX and 100BASE-FX modes, the AC101L transmits and receives data stream on twisted-pair or fiber-optic
cable. When the MII transmit enable is asserted, nibble wide (4-bit) data from transmit data pins is encoded into 5-bit code
groups and inserted into transmit data stream. The 4B/5B encoding is shown in Section 6: “4B/5B Code Group” on page 26.
The transmit packet is encapsulated by replacing the first 2 nibbles of preamble with a start of stream delimiter (J/K codes)
and appending an end of stream delimiter (T/R codes) to the end of packet. When the MII transmit error input is asserted
during a packet, the error code group (H) is sent in place of the corresponding data code group. The transmitter sends
repeatedly the idle code group between packets.
In 100BASE-TX mode, the encode data stream is first scrambled by a stream cipher block and then serialized and encoded
into an MLT3 signal level. Second, a multimode transmit DAC (digital to analog converter) is used to drive the MLT3 data
onto twisted-pair cable. Following baseline wander correction, adaptive equalization and clock/data recovery in 100BASETX mode, the receive data stream is converted from MLT3 to serial NRZ data. The NRZ data are descrambled by the stream
cipher block and then deserialized and aligned into 5-bit code groups.
In 100BASE-FX mode, the scrambling function is bypassed and the data are NRZII-encoded. The multi mode transmit DAC
drives differential Positive ECL (PECL) levels to an external fiber-optic transmitter. Baseline wander correction, adaptive
equalization, stream cipher descrambling functions are bypassed and NRZI decoding is used instead of MLT3.
The 5-bit code groups are decoded into 4-bit data nibbles. The start of stream delimiter is replaced with preamble nibbles
and the end of stream delimiter and idle codes are replaced with all zeros. The decoded data are driven onto the MII receive
data pins. When an invalid code group or bad SSD is detected in the data stream, the AC101L asserts the MII RXER signal.
In 10BASE-T mode, Manchester encoding and decoding is performed on the data stream. The multi mode transmit DAC
performs pre-equalization for 100 meters of Category 3 cable.
LINK MONITOR
In 100BASE-TX mode, receive signal energy is detected by monitoring the receive pair for transitions in the signal level. The
signal levels are qualified using squelch detect circuits. When no signal or certain valid signal is detected on the receive pair
for a minimum period of time, the link monitor enters the link pass state, and the transmit and receive functions are enabled.

Functional Description

AC101L
Preliminary Data Sheet
8/9/04
In 100BASE-FX mode, the external fiber-optic receiver performs the signal energy detection function and communicates this
information directly to the SD signal (PIN 28).
In 10BASE-T mode, a link pulse detection circuit constantly monitors the RXP/RXN pins for the presence of valid link pulses.
CARRIER SENSE (CRS)/RXDV
Carrier sense is asserted asynchronously on the CRS pins as soon as activity is detected on the receive data stream. RXDV
is asserted as soon as a valid SSD (Start-of-Stream Delimiter) is detected. Carrier sense and RXDV are de-asserted
synchronously upon detection of a valid end of stream delimiter or two consecutive idle code groups in the receive data
stream. However, if the carrier sense is asserted and a valid SSD is not detected immediately, RXER is asserted instead of
RXDV.
In 10BASE-T mode, CRS is asserted asynchronously when the valid preamble and data activity is detected on the RXIP and
RXIN pins.
In the half-duplex mode, the CRS is activated during data transmit. In the full-duplex mode, the CRS is activated during data
receiving only.
COLLISION DETECTION
In half-duplex mode, collision detect is asserted on the COL pin whenever carrier sense is asserted and transmission is in
progress.
AUTO-NEGOTIATION
Auto-negotiation selection is on 100BASE twisted-pair PHY only; it is not operating in 100BASE fiber PHY.
In 100BASE-TX mode, auto-negotiation can be enabled or disabled by hardware or software control. When the autonegotiation function is enabled, the 100BASE-TX PHY automatically chooses its mode of operation by advertising its abilities
and comparing them with those received from its link partner. 100BASE-TX PHY can be configured to advertise 100BASETX full-duplex or 100BASE-TX half-duplex.
The default auto-negotiation mode is configured via reset read value of ANEN/LED3 signal (pin 23) and SPD100/LED1.

10BASE-T
The default value is ANEN || (!SPD100 && !DUPLEX).
PARALLEL DETECTION
Because there are many devices in the field that do not support the ANEN process, but must still be communicated with, it
is necessary to detect and link through the parallel detection process. The parallel detection circuit is enabled in the absence
of FLPs. The circuit is able to detect the following:
•
Normal link pulse (NLP)
•
10BASE-T receive data
•
100BASE-TX idle
The mode of operation gets configured based on the technology of the incoming signal. If any of the above is detected, the
device automatically configures to match the detected operating speed in the half-duplex mode. This ability allows the device
to communicate with the legacy 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX systems, while maintaining the flexibility of auto-negotiation.
ANALOG ADAPTIVE EQUALIZER
The analog adaptive equalizer removes InterSymbol Interference (ISI) created by the transmission channel media.
The PHY is designed to accommodate a maximum of 140 meters of UTP Category 5 cable. An AT&T 1061 Category 5 cable
of this length typically has an attenuation of 31 dB at 100 MHz. A typical attenuation of 100-meter cable is 21 dB. The worst
case cable attenuation is around 24–26 dB as defined by TP-PMD specification. The amplitude and phase distortion from
the cable causes ISI which makes clock and data recovery difficult. The adaptive equalizer is designed to closely match the
inverse transfer function of the twisted-pair cable. The equalizer has the ability to changes its equalizer frequency response
according to the cable length. The equalizer will tune itself automatically for any cable, compensating for the amplitude and
phase distortion introduced by the cable.
CLOCK RECOVERY
The equalized MLT3 signal passes through the slicer circuit and is converted to NRZI format. The PHY uses a proprietary
mixed-signal Phase Locked Loop (PLL) to extract clock information from the incoming NRZI data. The extracted clock is
used to retime the data stream and set the data boundaries. The transmit clock is locked to the 25-MHz clock input while the
receive clock is locked to the incoming data streams. When initial lock is achieved, the PLL switches to the data stream,
extracts the 125-MHz clock, and uses it for the bit framing for the recovered data. The recovered 125-MHz clock is also used
to generate the 25-MHz RX_CLK signal. The PLL requires no external components for its operation and has high noise
immunity and low jitter. It provides fast phase alignment and locks to data in one transition. Its data/clock acquisition time,
after power-on, is less than 60 transitions. The PLL can maintain lock on run-lengths of up to 60 data bits in the absence of
signal transitions. When no valid data are present (that is, when the SD is deasserted), the PLL switches and locks on to

TX_CLK. This provides a continuously running RX_CLK. At the PCS interface, the 5-bit data RXD[4:0] is synchronized to
the 25-MHz RX_CLK.
BASELINE WANDER CORRECTION
A 100BASE-TX data stream is not always DC-balanced. Because the receive signal must pass through a transformer, the
DC offset of the differential receive input can wander. This effect, known as baseline wander, can greatly reduce the noise
immunity of the receiver. The 100BASE-TX PHY automatically compensates for baseline wander by removing the DC offset
from the input signal, thereby significantly reducing the chance of a receive symbol error.
The baseline wander circuit is not required in 100BASE-FX PHY operation.
MULTIMODE TRANSMITTER
The multimode transmitter transmits MLT3 coded symbols in 100BASE-TX mode, and NRZI coded symbols in 100BASE-FX
mode. It utilizes a current drive output, which is well balanced and produces very low noise transmit signals. PECL voltage
levels are produced with resistive terminations in 100BASE-FX mode.
The serialized data bypasses the scrambler and 4B/5B encoder in FX mode. The output data are NRZI PECL signals. The
PECL level signals are used to drive the fiber-optic transmitter.
STREAM CIPHER SCRAMBLER/DESCRAMBLER
In 100BASE-TX mode, the transmit data stream is scrambled to reduce radiated emissions on the twisted-pair cable. The
data are scrambled by exclusive ORing the NRZ signal with the output of an 11-bit wide Linear Feedback Shift register
(LFSR), which produces a 2047-bit nonrepeating sequence. The scrambler reduces peak emission by randomly spreading
the signal energy over the transmit frequency range and eliminating peaks at certain frequencies.
The receiver descrambles the incoming data stream by exclusive ORing it with the same sequence generated at the
transmitter. The descrambler detects the state of the transmit LFSR by looking for a sequence representing consecutive idle
codes. The descrambler locks to the scrambler state after detecting a sufficient number of consecutive idle code group.
The receiver does not attempt to decode the data stream unless the descrambler is locked. When locked, the descrambler
continuously monitors the data stream to make sure that it has not lost synchronization.
The receive data stream is expected to contain inter-packet idle periods. If the descrambler does not detect enough idle code
within 724 µs, it becomes unlocked and the receive decoder is disabled. The descrambler is always forced into the unlock
state when a link failure condition is detected.
Stream cipher descrambler is not used in the 100BASE-FX mode.

FEF (FAR-END FAULT)
Auto-negotiation provides the mechanism to inform the link partner that a remote fault has occurred. Auto-negotiation is
disabled, however, in the 100BASE-FX applications. An alternative in-band signaling function (FEFI) is used to signal a
remote fault condition.
FEFI is a stream of 84 consecutive ones followed by one logic zero. This pattern is repeated three times.
An FEFI signal is given under three conditions:
•
When no activity is received from the link partner.
•
When the clock recovery circuit detects a signal error or PLL lock error.
•
When a management entity sets the Transmit Far-End Fault bit.
The FEFI mechanism is enabled by default in the 100BASE-FX mode and disabled in 100BASE-TX or 10BASE-T modes.
The register setting can be changed by software after reset.
TRANSMIT DRIVER
In 100BASE-TX mode, the PHY transmit function converts synchronous 4-bit data nibbles from the MII to a pair of 125-Mbps
differential serial data streams. The serial data are transmitted over network twisted-pair cables via an isolation transformer.
Data conversion includes 4B/5B encoding, scrambling, parallel-to-serial, NRZ to NRZI, and MLT3 encoding. The entire
operation is synchronous to the 25-MHz and 125-MHz clocks. Both clocks are generated by an on-chip PLL clock
synthesizer that is locked on to an external 25-MHz clock source.
In 100BASE-FX, the transmit driver does not perform filtering; it utilizes a current drive output that is well balanced and
produces a low noise PECL signal. PECL voltage levels are produced with resistive terminations.
In 10BASE-T mode, if the MII interface is used, parallel-to-serial logic is used to convert the 4-bit data into the serial stream
through the output wave shaping driver. The wave shaper reduces any EMI emission by filtering out the harmonics, therefore
eliminating the need for an external filter.
HP AUTO-MDI/MDIX
This feature is able to detect the required cable connection type (straight-through or crossed-over) and make correction
automatically.

MAC INTERFACE
MII
The Media Independent Interface (MII) is an 18-wire MAC/PHY interface described in IEEE 802.3u. The purpose of the
interface is to allow MAC layer devices to attach to a variety of physical layer devices through a common interface. MII
operates at either 100 Mbps or 10 Mbps, depending on the speed of the physical layer. With clocks running at either 25 MHz
or 2.5 MHz, 4-bit data are clocked between the MAC and PHY, synchronously with Enable and Error signals.
At the time of PLL lock on an incoming signal from the wire interface, the PHY generates RX_CLK at either 2.5 MHz for
10 Mbps or 25 MHz for 100 Mbps.
On receipt of valid data from the wire interface, RXDV goes active signaling the MAC that valid data will be presented on the
RXD[3:0] pins at the speed of the RX_CLK.
On transmission of data from the MAC, TXEN is presented to the PHY, indicating the presence of valid data on TXD[3:0].
TXD[3:0] are sampled by the PHY( synchronous to TX_CLK) during the time that TXEN is valid.
SMI
The PHYs internal registers are accessible only through the MII 2-wire Serial Management Interface (SMI). MDC is a clock
input to the PHY, which is used to latch in or out data and instructions for the PHY. The clock can run at any speed from DC
to 25 MHz. MDIO is a bidirectional connection used to write instructions to, write data to, or read data from the PHY. Each
data bit is latched either in or out on the rising edge of the MDC. The MDC is not required to maintain any speed or duty
cycle, provided no half cycle is less than 20 ns, and that data are presented synchronous to the MDC.
MDC/MDIO are a common signal pair to all PHYs on a design. Therefore, each PHY needs to have its own unique physical
address. The physical address of the PHY is set using the pins defined as PHYAD[4:0]. These input signals are strapped
externally, and are sampled as reset is negated. At idle, the PHY is responsible to pull the MDIO line to a high state.
Therefore, a 1 kΩ resistor is required to connect the MDIO line to VCC.
PHYSICAL LAYER INTERFACES
The two supported interfaces are the twisted-pair (TP) interface with auto-MDI/MDIX selection, and the fiber-optic Interface
with PECL signaling.
The selection of these two interfaces is performed at reset time by the SD/FXEN signal (pin 28). Pull pin 28 LOW to enable
the TP interface, or connect pin 28 to the fiber module to enable FX interface.

RESET
The PHY can be reset in two ways:
•
Hardware reset: (See “Pin Descriptions” on page 7).
•
Software reset: (See “Register Description” on page 13).
POWER SOURCE
The AC101L chip provides an onboard 3.3V ±5% input to 2.5V ±5% output regulator with the capability to drive 150 mA of
current. The 2.5V output supplies the PHY operation, including the LEDs. It is recommended to limit the LED current below
10 mA per LED.
The 2.5V power should be decoupled to provide the digital and analog pins on the chip.
POWER SAVING MODE
The power consumption of the AC101L device is significantly reduced due to its built-in power management features.
Separate power supply lines are used to power the 10BASE-T circuitry and the 100BASE-TX circuitry. Therefore, the two
circuits can be turned on and turned off independently. When the PHY is set to operate in 100BASE-TX mode, 10BASE-T
circuitry is powered down.
The following power management features are supported:
•
Power-down mode: (see pin and register descriptions). During power down mode, the device is still able to interface
through the management interface.
•
Energy detect/power saving mode: Energy detect mode turns off the power to select internal circuitry when there is
no live network connected. The energy detect (ED) circuit is always turned on to monitor if there is signal energy
present on the media. The management circuitry is also powered on and ready to respond to any management
transaction. The transmit circuit still sends out link pulses with minimum power consumption. If a valid signal is received
from the media, the device powers up and resumes normal transmit/receive operations.
•
Valid data detection mode: This can be achieved by writing to the Receive Clock Register control bit. During this
mode, if there is no data other than incoming idles, the receive clock (RX_CLK) turns itself off. This could save the
power of the attached media access controller. RX_CLK resumes operation one clock period prior to the assertion of
RXDV. The receive clock again shuts off 64 clock cycles after RXDV is deasserted.

CLOCK SOURCE
The clock source for this chip is from the XI pin. In MII mode, it can connect to a 25 MHz 50 ppm (parts per million) OSC or
a 25 MHz 50 ppm XTAL (crystal).
ISOLATE MODE
When the AC101L device is put into isolate mode, all MII inputs (TXD[3:0}, TXEN, TXER) are ignored, and all MII outputs
(TX_CLK, COL, CRS, RX_CLK, RXDV, RXER, RXD[3:0] are set to high impedance. Only the MII management pins (MDC,
MDIO) operate normally. Pull HIGH pin 4 at reset or write 1 to bit 10 register 0 to put the chip into isolate mode.
LOOPBACK MODE
Local loopback is provided for testing purpose. It can be enabled by writing a one to register 0 bit 14.
The local loopback routes transmitted data through the transmit path back to the clock and data recovery module of the
receiving path. The loopback data are presented to the PCS in 5-bit symbol format. This loopback is used to check the
operation of the 5-bit symbol decoder and the phase lock loop circuitry. In local loopback, the SD output is forced to a logical
1 and TXOP/N outputs are tristated.
INTERRUPT MODE
The INTR pin on the PHY is asserted whenever 1 of 8 selectable interrupt events occurs. The assertion state is high or low
and is programmable through the INTR_LEVL register bit. The selection is made by setting the appropriate bit in the upper
half of the Interrupt Control/Status register. When the INTR bit goes active, the MAC interface is required to read the Interrupt
Control/Status register to determine which event caused the interrupt. The Status bits are read-only and clear-on-read.
When INTR is not asserted, the pin is held in a high impedance state.
LED OPERATION
LED INTERFACE
The LED interface is fully configurable through register setting. The connection of LED (source/sink current) depends on the
default setting.
