General
Features
The ICS1893 is a low-power, physical-layer device (PHY)
that supports the ISO/IEC 10Base-T and 100Base-TX
Carrier-Sense Multiple Access/Collision Detection
(CSMA/CD) Ethernet standards. The ICS1893 architecture
is based on the ICS1892. The ICS1893 supports managed or
unmanaged node, repeater, and switch applications.
• Supports category 5 cables with attenuation in excess of
The ICS1893 incorporates digital signal processing (DSP)
in its Physical Medium Dependent (PMD) sublayer. As a
result, it can transmit and receive data on unshielded
twisted-pair (UTP) category 5 cables with attenuation in
excess of 24 dB at 100 MHz. With this ICS-patented
technology, the ICS1893 can virtually eliminate errors from
killer packets.
The ICS1893 provides a Serial Management Interface for
exchanging command and status information with a Station
Management (STA) entity.
The ICS1893 Media Dependent Interface (MDI) can be
configured to provide either half- or full-duplex operation at
data rates of 10 MHz or 100 MHz. The MDI configuration
can be established manually (with input pins or control
register settings) or automatically (using the

Auto-Negotiation sublayer is enabled, it exchanges
technology capability data with its remote link partner and
automatically selects the highest-performance operating
mode they have in common.

Chapter 3 ICS1893 Enhanced Features
Chapter 3 ICS1893 Enhanced Features
The ICS1893 is an enhanced version of the ICS1890. In contrast to the ICS1890, the ICS1893 offers
significant improvements in both performance and features while maintaining backward compatibility. The
specific differences between these devices are listed below.
1. The ICS1893 employs an advanced digital signal processing (DSP) architecture that improves the
100Base-TX Receiver performance beyond that of any other PHY in the market. Specifically:
a. The ICS1893 DSP-based, adaptive equalization process allows the ICS1893 to accommodate a
maximum cable attenuation/insertion loss in excess of 24 dB, which is nearly equivalent to the
attenuation loss of a 100-meter Category 5 cable.
b. The ICS1893 DSP-based, baseline-wander correction process eliminates killer packets.
2. The analog 10Base-T Receive Phase-Locked Loop (PLL) of the ICS1890 is replaced with a digital PLL
in the ICS1893, thereby resulting in lower jitter and improved stability.
3. The ICS1890 Frequency-Locked Loop (FLL) that is part of the 100Base-TX Clock and Data Recovery
circuitry is replaced with a digital FLL in the ICS1893, also resulting in lower jitter and improved stability.
4. The ICS1893 transmit circuits are improved in contrast to the ICS1890, resulting in a decrease in the
magnitude of the 10Base-T harmonic content generated during transmission. (See ISO/IEC 8802-3:
1993 clause 8.3.1.3.)
5. The ICS1893 supports the Auto-Negotiation Next Page functions described in IEEE Std 802.3u-1995
clause 28.2.3.4.
6. The ICS1893 supports Management Frame (MF) Preamble Suppression.
7. The ICS1893 provides the Remote Jabber capability.
8. The ICS1893 has an improved version of the ICS1890 10Base-T Squelch operation.
9. The ICS1893 “seeds” (that is, initializes) the Transmit Stream Cipher Shift register by using the
ICS1893 PHY address from Table 8-16, which minimizes crosstalk and noise in repeater applications.
10. The ICS1893 offers an automatic 10Base-T power-down mode.
11. The enhanced features of the ICS1893 required some modifications to the ICS1890 Management
Registers. However, the ICS1893 Management Registers are backward-compatible with the ICS1890
Management Registers. Table 3-1 summarizes the differences between the ICS1890 and the ICS1893
Management Registers.

Overview of the ICS1893
Chapter 4 Overview of the ICS1893
The ICS1893 is a stream processor. During data transmission, it accepts sequential nibbles from its MAC
(Media Access Control)/Repeater Interface, converts them into a serial bit stream, encodes them, and
transmits them over the medium through an external isolation transformer. When receiving data, the
ICS1893 converts and decodes a serial bit stream (acquired from an isolation transformer that interfaces
with the medium) into sequential nibbles. It subsequently presents these nibbles to its MAC/Repeater
Interface.
The ICS1893 implements the OSI model’s physical layer, consisting of the following, as defined by the
ISO/IEC 8802-3 standard:
•
•
•
•
Physical Coding sublayer (PCS)
Physical Medium Attachment sublayer (PMA)
Physical Medium Dependent sublayer (PMD)
Auto-Negotiation sublayer
The ICS1893 is transparent to the next layer of the OSI model, the link layer. The link layer has two
sublayers: the Logical Link Control sublayer and the MAC sublayer. The ICS1893 can interface directly to
the MAC and offers multiple, configurable modes of operation. Alternately, this configurable interface can
be connected to a repeater, which extends the physical layer of the OSI model.
The ICS1893 transmits framed packets acquired from its MAC/Repeater Interface and receives
encapsulated packets from another PHY, which it translates and presents to its MAC/Repeater Interface.
Note:
As per the ISO/IEC standard, the ICS1893 does not affect, nor is it affected by, the underlying
structure of the MAC/repeater frame it is conveying.
