3.3-V 10Base-T/100Base-TX Integrated PHYceiver
General
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.
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 features). When the ICS1893
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.
Features
• Supports category 5 cables with attenuation in excess of
24 dB at 100 MHz across a temperature range from -5°to
+85°C
• DSP-based baseline wander correction to virtually
eliminate killer packets across temperature range of from
-5°to +85°C
• Low-power, 0.35-micron CMOS (typically 400 mW)
• Single 3.3-V power supply.
• Single-chip, fully integrated PHY provides PCS, PMA,
PMD, and AUTONEG sublayers of IEEE standard
• 10Base-T and 100Base-TX IEEE 802.3 compliant
• Fully integrated, DSP-based PMD includes:
– Adaptive equalization and baseline wander correction
– Transmit wave shaping and stream cipher scrambler
– MLT-3 encoder and NRZ/NRZI encoder
• Highly configurable design supports:
– Node, repeater, and switch applications
– Managed and unmanaged applications
– 10M or 100M half- and full-duplex modes
– Parallel detection
– Auto-negotiation, with Next Page capabilities
• MAC/Repeater Interface can be configured as:
– 10M or 100M Media Independent Interface
– 100M Symbol Interface (bypasses the PCS)
– 10M 7-wire Serial Interface
• Small Footprint 64-pin Thin Quad Flat Pack (TQFP)
NOTE: EOL for non-green parts to occur on
5/13/10 per PDN U-09-01.

Bits
Convention / Nomenclature
• A bit in a register is identified using the format ‘register.bit’. For example, bit
0.15 is bit 15 of register 0.
• When a colon is used with bits, it indicates the range of bits. For example,
bits 1.15:11 are bits 15, 14, 13, 12, and 11 of register 1.
• For a range of bits, the order is always from the most-significant bit to the
least-significant bit.
Code groups
Within this table, see the item ‘Symbols’
Colon (:)
Within this table, see these items:
• ‘Bits’
• ‘Pin (or signal) names’
Numbers
• As a default, all numbers use the decimal system (that is, base 10) unless
followed by a lowercase letter. A string of numbers followed by a lowercase
letter:
– A ‘b’represents a binary (base 2) number
– An ‘h’represents a hexadecimal (base 16) number
– An ‘o’represents an octal (base 8) number
• All numerical references to registers use decimal notation (and not
hexadecimal).
Pin (or signal) names
• All pin or signal names are provided in capital letters.
• A pin name that includes a forward slash ‘/’is a multi-function, configuration
pin. These pins provide the ability to select between two ICS1893
functions. The name provided:
– Before the ‘/’indicates the pin name and function when the signal level
on the pin is logic zero.
– After the ‘/’indicates the pin name and function when the signal level on
the pin is logic one.
For example, the HW/SW pin selects between Hardware (HW) mode and
Software (SW) mode. When the signal level on the HW/SW pin is logic:
– Zero, the ICS1893 Hardware mode is selected.
– One, the ICS1893 Software mode is selected.
• An ‘n’appended to the end of a pin name or signal name (such as
RESETn) indicates an active-low operation.
• When a colon is used with pin or signal names, it indicates a range. For
example, TXD[3:0] represents pins/signals TXD3, TXD2, TXD1, and TXD0.
• When pin name abbreviations are spelled out, words in parentheses
indicate additional description that is not part of the pin name abbreviation.
Registers
• A bit in a register is identified using the format ‘register.bit’. For example, bit
0.15 is bit 15 of register 0.
• All numerical references to registers use decimal notation (and not
hexadecimal).
• When register name abbreviations are spelled out, words in parentheses
indicate additional description that is not part of the register name
abbreviation.

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.

ICS1893 Data Sheet - Release
4.1
Chapter 4
Overview of the ICS1893
100Base-TX Operation
During 100Base-TX data transmission, the ICS1893 accepts packets from a MAC/repeater and inserts
Start-of-Stream Delimiters (SSDs) and End-of-Stream Delimiters (ESDs) into the data stream. The
ICS1893 encapsulates each MAC/repeater frame, including the preamble, with an SSD and an ESD. As
per the ISO/IEC Standard, the ICS1893 replaces the first octet of each MAC preamble with an SSD and
appends an ESD to the end of each MAC/repeater frame.
When receiving data from the medium, the ICS1893 removes each SSD and replaces it with the
pre-defined preamble pattern before presenting the nibbles to its MAC/Repeater Interface. When the
ICS1893 encounters an ESD in the received data stream, signifying the end of the frame, it ends the
presentation of nibbles to its MAC/Repeater Interface. Therefore, the local MAC/repeater receives an
unaltered copy of the transmitted frame sent by the remote MAC/repeater.
During periods when MAC frames are being neither transmitted nor received, the ICS1893 signals and
detects the IDLE condition on the Link Segment. In the 100Base-TX mode, the ICS1893 transmit channel
sends a continuous stream of scrambled ones to signify the IDLE condition. Similarly, the ICS1893 receive
channel continually monitors its data stream and looks for a pattern of scrambled ones. The results of this
signaling and monitoring provide the ICS1893 with the means to establish the integrity of the Link Segment
between itself and its remote link partner and inform its Station Management Entity (STA) of the link status.
For 100M data transmission, the ICS1893 MAC/Repeater Interface can be configured to provide either a
100M Media Independent Interface (MII) or a 100M Symbol Interface. With the Symbol Interface
configuration, the data stream bypasses the ICS1893 Physical Coding sublayer (PCS). In addition:
1. The ICS1893 shifts the responsibility of performing the 4B/5B translation to the MAC/repeater. As a
result, the requirement is for a 5-bit data path between the MAC/repeater and the ICS1893.
2. The latency through the ICS1893 is reduced. (The ICS1893 provides this 100M Symbol Interface
primarily for repeater applications for which latency is a critical performance parameter.)
4.2
10Base-T Operation
During 10Base-T data transmission, the ICS1893 inserts only the IDL delimiter into the data stream. The
ICS1893 appends the IDL delimiter to the end of each MAC frame. However, since the 10Base-T preamble
already has a Start-of-Frame delimiter (SFD), it is not required that the ICS1893 insert an SSD-like
delimiter.
When receiving data from the medium (such as a twisted-pair cable), the ICS1893 uses the preamble to
synchronize its receive clock. When the ICS1893 receive clock establishes lock, it presents the preamble
nibbles to its MAC/Repeater Interface. The 10M MAC/Repeater Interface can be configured as either a
10M MII, a 10M Serial Interface, or a Link Pulse Interface.
In 10M operations, during periods when MAC frames are being neither transmitted nor received, the
ICS1893 signals and detects Normal Link Pulses. This action allows the integrity of the Link Segment with
the remote link partner to be established and then reported to the ICS1893’s STA.

Operating Modes Overview
Chapter 5 Operating Modes Overview
The ICS1893 operating modes and interfaces are configurable with one of two methods. The HW/SW
(hardware/software) pin determines which method the ICS1893 is to use, either its hardware pins or its
register bits. When the HW/SW bit is logic zero the ICS1893 is in hardware mode. In hardware mode, the
hardware pins have priority over the internal registers for establishing the configuration settings of the
ICS1893. When the HW/SW bit is logic one the ICS1893 is in software mode. In software mode, the
internal register bits have priority over the hardware pins for establishing the configuration settings of the
ICS1893. The register bits are typically controlled from software.
The ICS1893 register bits are accessible through a standard MII (Media Independent Interface) Serial
Management Port. Even when the ICS1893 MAC/Repeater Interface is not supporting the standard MII
Data Interface, access to the Serial Management Port is provided (that is, operation of the Serial
Management Port is independent of the MAC/Repeater Interface configuration).
The ICS1893 provides a number of configuration functions to support a variety of operations. For example,
the MAC/Repeater Interface can be configured to operate as a 10M MII, a 100M MII, a 100M Symbol
Interface, a 10M Serial Interface, or a Link Pulse Interface. The protocol on the Medium Dependent
Interface (MDI) can be configured to support either 10M or 100M operations in either half-duplex or
full-duplex modes.
The ICS1893 is fully compliant with the ISO/IEC 8802-3 standard, as it pertains to both 10Base-T and
100Base-TX operations. The feature-rich ICS1893 allows easy migration from 10-Mbps to 100-Mbps
operations as well as from systems that require support of both 10M and 100M links.

Operating Modes Overview
Reset Operations
This section first discusses reset operations in general and then specific ways in which the ICS1893 can be
configured for various reset options.
5.1.1
General Reset Operations
The following reset operations apply to all the specific ways in which the ICS1893 can be reset, which are
discussed in Section 5.1.2, “Specific Reset Operations”.
5.1.1.1
Entering Reset
When the ICS1893 enters a reset condition (either through hardware, power-on reset, or software), it does
the following:
1. Isolates the MAC/Repeater Interface input pins
2. Drives all MAC/Repeater Interface output pins low
3. Tri-states the signals on its Twisted-Pair Transmit pins (TP_TXP and TP_TXN)
4. Initializes all its internal modules and state machines to their default states
5. Enters the power-down state
6. Initializes all internal latching low (LL), latching high (LH), and latching maximum (LMX) Management
Register bits to their default values
5.1.1.2
Exiting Reset
When the ICS1893 exits a reset condition, it does the following:
1. Exits the power-down state
2. Latches the Serial Management Port Address of the ICS1893 into the Extended Control Register, bits
16.10:6. [See Section 8.11.3, “PHY Address (bits 16.10:6)”.]
3. Enables all its internal modules and state machines
4. Sets all Management Register bits to either (1) their default values or (2) the values specified by their
associated ICS1893 input pins, as determined by the HW/SW pin
5. Enables the Twisted-Pair Transmit pins (TP_TXP and TP_TXN)
6. Resynchronizes both its Transmit and Receive Phase-Locked Loops, which provide its transmit clock
(TXCLK) and receive clock (RXCLK)
7. Releases all MAC/Repeater Interface pins, which takes a maximum of 640 ns after the reset condition
is removed
5.1.1.3
Hot Insertion
As with the ICS189X products, the ICS1893 reset design supports ‘hot insertion’of its MII. (That is, the
ICS1893 can connect its MAC/Repeater Interface to a MAC/repeater while power is already applied to the
MAC/repeater.)

• Hardware reset (using the RESETn pin)
• Power-on reset (applying power to the ICS1893)
• Software reset (using Control Register bit 0.15)
Note:
5.1.2.1
At the completion of a reset (either hardware, power-on, or software), the ICS1893 sets all
registers to their default values.
Hardware Reset
Entering Hardware Reset
Holding the active-low RESETn pin low for a minimum of five REF_IN clock cycles initiates a hardware
reset (that is, the ICS1893 enters the reset state). During reset, the ICS1893 executes the steps listed in
Section 5.1.1.1, “Entering Reset”.
Exiting Hardware Reset
After the signal on the RESETn pin transitions from a low to a high state, the ICS1893 completes in 640 ns
(that is, in 16 REF_IN clocks) steps 1 through 5, listed in Section 5.1.1.2, “Exiting Reset”. After the first five
steps are completed, the Serial Management Port is ready for normal operations, but this action does not
signify the end of the reset cycle. The reset cycle completes when the transmit clock (TXCLK) and receive
clock (RXCLK) are available, which is typically 53 ms after the RESETn pin goes high. [For details on this
transition, see Section 10.5.18, “Reset: Hardware Reset and Power-Down”.]
Note:
1. The MAC/Repeater Interface is not available for use until the TXCLK and RXCLK are valid.
2. The Control Register bit 0.15 does not represent the status of a hardware reset. It is a self-clearing bit
that is used to initiate a software reset.
5.1.2.2
Power-On Reset
Entering Power-On Reset
When power is applied to the ICS1893, it waits until the potential between VDD and VSS achieves a
minimum voltage before entering reset and executing the steps listed in Section 5.1.1.1, “Entering Reset”.
After entering reset from a power-on condition, the ICS1893 remains in reset for approximately 20 µs. (For
details on this transition, see Section 10.5.17, “Reset: Power-On Reset”.)
Exiting Power-On Reset
The ICS1893 automatically exits reset and performs the same steps as for a hardware reset. (See Section
5.1.1.2, “Exiting Reset”.)
Note:
The only difference between a hardware reset and a power-on reset is that during a power-on
reset, the ICS1893 isolates its RESETn input pin. All other functionality is the same. As with a
hardware reset, Control Register bit 0.15 does not represent the status of a power-on reset.

Operating Modes Overview
Software Reset
Entering Software Reset
Initiation of a software reset occurs when a management entity writes a logic one to Control Register bit
0.15. When this write occurs, the ICS1893 enters the reset state for two REF_IN clock cycles.
Note:
Entering a software reset is nearly identical to entering a hardware reset or a power-on reset,
except that during a software-initiated reset, the ICS1893 does not enter the power-down state.
Exiting Software Reset
At the completion of a reset (either hardware, power-on, or software), the ICS1893 sets all registers to their
default values. This action automatically clears (that is, sets equal to logic zero) Control Register bit 0.15,
the software reset bit. Therefore, for a software reset (only), bit 0.15 is a self-clearing bit that indicates the
completion of the reset process.
Note:
1. The RESETn pin is active low but Control Register bit 0.15 is active high.
2. Exiting a software reset is nearly identical to exiting a hardware reset or a power-on reset, except that
upon exiting a software-initiated reset, the ICS1893 does not re-latch its Serial Management Port
Address into the Extended Control Register. [For information on the Serial Management Port Address,
see Section 8.11.3, “PHY Address (bits 16.10:6)”.]
3. The Control Register bit 0.15 does not represent the status of a hardware reset. It is a self-clearing bit
that is used to initiate a software reset. During a hardware or power-on reset, Control Register bit 0.15
does not get set to logic one. As a result, this bit 0.15 cannot be used to indicate the completion of the
reset process for hardware or power-on resets.
5.2
Power-Down Operations
The ICS1893 enters the power-down state whenever either (1) the RESETn pin is low or (2) Control
Register bit 0.11 (the Power-Down bit) is logic one. In the power-down state, the ICS1893 disables all
internal functions and drives all MAC/Repeater Interface output pins to logic zero except for those that
support the MII Serial Management Port. In addition, the ICS1893 tri-states its Twisted-Pair Transmit pins
(TP_TXP and TP_TXN) to achieve an additional reduction in power.
There is one significant difference between entering the power-down state by setting Control Register bit
0.11 as opposed to entering the power-down state during a reset. When the ICS1893 enters the
power-down state:
• By setting Control Register bit 0.11, the ICS1893 maintains the value of all Management Register bits
except for the latching low (LL), latching high (LH), and latching maximum (LMX) status bits. Instead,
these LL, LH, and LMX Management Register bits are re-initialized to their default values.
• During a reset, the ICS1893 sets all of its Management Register bits to their default values. It does not
maintain the state of any Management Register bit.
For more information on power-down operations, see the following:
• Section 8.14, “Register 19: Extended Control Register 2”
• Section 10.4, “DC Operating Characteristics”, which has tables that specify the ICS1893 power
consumption while in the power-down state

Auto-Negotiation Operations
The ICS1893 has an Auto-Negotiation sublayer and provides both an input pin, ANSEL (Auto-Negotiation
Select) and a Control Register bit (bit 0.12) to determine whether its Auto-Negotiation sublayer is enabled
or disabled. The ICS1893 HW/SW input pin exclusively selects whether the ANSEL pin (which is used for
the hardware mode) or Control Register bit 0.12 (which is used for the software mode) controls its
Auto-Negotiation sublayer.
When enabled, the ICS1893 Auto-Negotiation sublayer exchanges technology capability data with its
remote link partner and automatically selects the highest-performance operating mode it has in common
with its remote link partner. For example, if the ICS1893 supports 100Base-TX and 10Base-T modes – but
its link partner supports 100Base-TX and 100Base-T4 modes – the two devices automatically select
100Base-TX as the highest-performance common operating mode. For details regarding initialization and
control of the auto-negotiation process, see Section 7.2, “Functional Block: Auto-Negotiation”.

Operating Modes Overview
100Base-TX Operations
The ICS1893 100Base-TX mode provides 100Base-TX physical layer (PHY) services as defined in the
ISO/IEC 8802-3 standard. In the 100Base-TX mode, the ICS1893 is a 100M translator between a
MAC/repeater and the physical transmission medium. As such, the ICS1893 has two interfaces, both of
which are fully configurable: one to the MAC/repeater and one to the Link Segment. In 100Base-TX mode,
the ICS1893 provides the following functions:
•
•
•
•
Data conversion from both parallel-to-serial and serial-to-parallel formats
Data encoding/decoding (4B/5B, NRZ/NRZI, and MLT-3)
Data scrambling/descrambling
Data transmission/reception over a twisted-pair medium
To accurately transmit and receive data, the ICS1893 employs DSP-based wave shaping, adaptive
equalization, and baseline wander correction. In addition, in 100Base-TX mode, the ICS1893 provides a
variety of control and status means to assist with Link Segment management. For more information on
100Base-TX, see Section 7.4, “Functional Block: 100Base-TX TP-PMD Operations”.
5.6
10Base-T Operations
The ICS1893 10Base-T mode provides 10Base-T physical layer (PHY) services as defined in the ISO/IEC
8802-3 standard. In the 10Base-T mode, the ICS1893 is a 10M translator between a MAC/repeater and the
physical transmission medium. As such, the ICS1893 has two interfaces, both of which are fully
configurable: one to the MAC/repeater and one to the Link Segment. In 10Base-T mode, the ICS1893
provides the following functions:
• Data conversion from both parallel-to-serial and serial-to-parallel formats
• Manchester data encoding/decoding
• Data transmission/reception over a twisted-pair medium
In addition, in 10Base-T mode, the ICS1893 provides a variety of control and status means to assist with
Link Segment management. For more information on 10Base-T, see Section 7.5, “Functional Block:
10Base-T Operations”.
5.7
Half-Duplex and Full-Duplex Operations
The ICS1893 supports half-duplex and full-duplex operations for both 10Base-T and 100Base-TX
applications. Full-duplex operation allows simultaneous transmission and reception of data, which
effectively doubles the Link Segment throughput to either 20 Mbps (for 10Base-T operations) or 200 Mbps
(for 100Base-TX operations).
As per the ISO/IEC standard, full-duplex operations differ slightly from half-duplex operations. These
differences are necessary, as during full-duplex operations a PHY actively uses both its transmit and
receive data paths simultaneously.
• In 10Base-T full-duplex operations, the ICS1893 disables its loopback function (that is, it does not
automatically loop back data from its transmitter to its receiver) and disables its SQE Test function.
• In both 10Base-T and 100Base-TX full-duplex operations, the ICS1893 asserts its CRS signal only in
response to receive activity while its COL signal always remains inactive.
For more information on half-duplex and full-duplex operations, see the following sections:

MII Data Interface
The most common configuration for an ICS1893’s MAC/Repeater Interface is the Medium Independent
Interface (MII) operating at either 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps. When the ICS1893 MAC/Repeater Interface is
configured for the MII Data Interface mode, data is transferred between the PHY and the MAC/repeater as
framed, 4-bit parallel nibbles. In addition, the interface also provides status and control signals to
synchronize the transfers.
The ICS1893 provides a full complement of the ISO/IEC-specified MII signals. Its MII has both a transmit
and a receive data path to synchronously exchange 4 bits of data (that is, nibbles).
• The ICS1893’s MII transmit data path includes the following:
–
–
–
–
A data nibble, TXD[3:0]
A transmit data clock to synchronize transfers, TXCLK
A transmit enable signal, TXEN
A transmit error signal, TXER
• The ICS1893’s MII receive data path includes the following:
–
–
–
–
A separate data nibble, RXD[3:0]
A receive data clock to synchronize transfers, RXCLK
A receive data valid signal, RXDV
A receive error signal, RXER
Both the MII transmit clock and the MII receive clock are provided to the MAC/Reconciliation sublayer by
the ICS1893 (that is, the ICS1893 sources the TXCLK and RXCLK signals to the MAC/repeater).
Clause 22 also defines as part of the MII a Carrier Sense signal (CRS) and a Collision Detect signal (COL).
The ICs1893 is fully compliant with these definitions and sources both of these signals to the
MAC/repeater. When operating in:
• Half-duplex mode, the ICS1893 asserts the Carrier Sense signal when data is being either transmitted or
received. While operating in half-duplex mode, the ICS1893 also asserts its Collision Detect signal to
indicate that data is being received while a transmission is in progress.
• Full-duplex mode, the ICS1893 asserts the Carrier Sense signal only when receiving data and forces the
Collision Detect signal to remain inactive.
As mentioned in Section 5.1.1.3, “Hot Insertion”, the ICS1893 design allows hot insertion of its MII. That is,
it is possible to connect its MII to a MAC when power is already applied to the MAC. To support this
functionality, the ICS1893 isolates its MII signals and tri-states the signals on all Twisted-Pair Transmit pins
(TP_TXP and TP_TXN) during a power-on reset. Upon completion of the reset process, the ICS1893
enables its MII and enables its Twisted-Pair Transmit signals.

100M Symbol Interface
The 100M Symbol Interface has a primary objective of supporting 100Base-TX repeater applications for
which the repeater requires only recovered parallel data and for which the repeater provides all the
necessary framing and control functions.
When the ICS1893 MAC/Repeater Interface is configured for 100M Symbol operations, the PHY and the
MAC/repeater exchange unframed 5-bit, parallel symbols at a 25-MHz clock rate.
The configuration functions of the ICS1893 determine the operation of its MAC/Repeater Interface. The
configuration functions are controlled by either input pins (in which case, the HW/SW pin is logic zero to
select the hardware mode) or Management Register bits (in which case, the HW/SW pin is logic one to
select the software mode).
• In hardware mode, the ICS1893 enables the 100M Symbol Interface when both of the following are true:
– Its MII/SI input pin is sampled as a logic one (that is, the selection is for the Symbol Interface).
– Its 10/100SEL input pin is sampled as a logic one (that is, the selection is for 100M operations).
• In software mode, the ICS1893 enables the 100M Symbol Interface when both the following are true:
– Its MII/SI input pin is sampled as a logic one (that is, the selection is for the Symbol Interface).
– Its Control Register Data Rate bit (bit 0.13) is set to logic one (that is, the selection is for selecting
100M operations)
The 100M Symbol Interface bypasses the ICS1893’s PCS and provides a direct, unscrambled, unframed,
5-bit interface between the MAC/repeater and the PMA sublayer. A benefit of bypassing the PCS is a
reduction in the latency through the PHY. That is, when the ICS1893’s MAC/Repeater Interface is
configured as a 100M Symbol Interface, the bit delays through the PHY are smaller than the standard MII
Data Interface can allow. The ICS1893 provides this 100M Symbol Interface primarily for Repeater
applications, for which latency is a critical performance parameter.
In addition to the exchange of symbol data, an ICS1893 configured for 100M Symbol mode provides
ISO/IEC-compliant control signals (such as CRS) to the MAC/repeater. The ICS1893’s CRS signal
provides a fast look-ahead, which can benefit a repeater application.
In the 100M Symbol Interface mode, the ICS1893 continues to assert the CRS signal using its PCS logic.
This action does not affect the bit delay or latency because the PCS CRS logic examines the bits received
from the PMA sublayer serially. In fact, because the PCS CRS does not wait for a nibble or symbol to be
constructed, the PCS CRS is available in advance of the symbol generation. Therefore, by using the PCS
CRS generation logic, the ICS1893 can provide an ‘early’indication of a Carrier Detect to the
MAC/repeater.
The 100M Symbol Interface consists of the following fourteen signals:

10M Serial Interface
When the Mac/Repeater Interface is configured as a 10M Serial Interface, the ICS1893 and the
MAC/repeater exchange a framed, serial bit stream along with associated control signals. The 10M Serial
Interface configuration is ideally suited to applications that already incorporate a serial 10Base-T MAC with
a standard ‘7-wire’interface. The ICS1893 MAC/Repeater Interface can be configured for 10M Serial
Interface operations, as determined by ICS1893 configuration functions. When the HW/SW pin is set for:
• Hardware mode, the 10M Serial Interface is selected when both of the following are true:
– The MII/SI input pin is logic one (that is, the selection is for a Serial Interface).
– The 10/100SEL input pin is logic zero (that is, the selection is for 10M operations).
• Software mode, the 10M Serial Interface is selected when both of the following are true:
– The MII/SI input pin is logic one (that is, the selection is for a Serial Interface).
– The Control Register Data Rate bit (bit 0.13) is logic zero (that is, the selection is for 10M operations).
Note:
In software mode, the 10/100SEL pin becomes an output that indicates the state of bit 0.13.
A10M Serial Interface has two data paths: one for data transmission and one for data reception. Each data
path exchanges a serial bit stream with the MAC/repeater at a 10-MHz clock rate. A benefit of using the
10M Serial Interface – in contrast to the 10M MII Interface – is a reduction in the bit latency through the
ICS1893. This reduction is attributed to eliminating both parallel-to-serial and serial-to-parallel data
conversions.
The 10M Serial Interface consists of the following eight signals:

Serial Management Interface
The ICS1893 provides an ISO/IEC compliant, two-wire Serial Management Interface as part of its
MAC/Repeater Interface. This Serial Management Interface is used to exchange control, status, and
configuration information between a Station Management entity (STA) and the physical layer device (PHY),
that is, the ICS1893.
The ISO/IEC standard also specifies a frame structure and protocol for this interface as well as a set of
Management Registers that provide the STA with access to a PHY such as the ICS1893. A Serial
Management Interface is comprised of two signals: a bi-directional data pin (MDIO) along with an
associated input pin for a clock (MDC). The clock is used to synchronize all data transfers between the
ICS1893 and the STA.
In addition to the ISO/IEC defined registers, the ICS1893 provides several extended status and control
registers to provide more refined control of the MII and MDI interfaces. For example, the QuickPoll Detailed
Status Register provides the ability to acquire the most-important status functions with a single MDIO read.
Note:
6.5
In the ICS1893, the MDIO and MDC pins remain active for all the MAC/Repeater Interface modes
(that is, 10M MII, 100M MII, 100M Symbol, and 10M Serial).
Twisted-Pair Interface
For the twisted-pair interface, the ICS1893 uses 1:1 ratio transformers for both transmit and receive.
Better operation results from using a split ground plane through the transformer. In this case:
• The RJ-45 transformer windings must be on the chassis ground plane along with the Bob Smith
termination.
• The ICS1893 system ground plane must include the ICS1893-side transformer windings along with the
61.9Ω resistors and the 120-nH inductor.
• The transformer provides the isolation with one set of windings on one ground plane and another set of
windings on the second ground plane.

Twisted-Pair Transmitter Interface
The twisted-pair transmitter driver uses an H-bridge configuration, which requires that the transmit
transformer not have a choke on the chip side. ICS suggests any of the following for the H-bridge:
• Halo TG22S012ND transformer
• Transpower HB617-LP transformer
• Pulse 68517 transformer, which can be turned around to move the choke windings to the RJ-45 side
Figure 6-1 shows the design for the ICS1893 twisted-pair transmitter interface.
• Two 61.9Ω 1% resistors are in series, with a 120-nH 5% inductor between them. These components
form a network that connects across both the transformer and the ICS1893 TP_TXP and TP_TXN pins.
• The ICS1893 supplies the power to the transformer. (No VDD connection is required.)
• The ICS1893 TP_CT pin is connected directly to the transformer transmit center tap connection and is
bypassed to ground with a 100-pF capacitor. The transformer center tap must not connect to the
resistor/inductor network.
Note:
1. If the transmit transformer has a choke, put a choke on the RJ-45 side. Do not put a choke on the
ICS1893 side of the transformer for the transmit windings.
2. Keep all TX traces as short as possible.
3. When making board traces, 50Ω -characteristic impedance is desirable
4. Include a 0Ω resistor in series with TP_CT. (Some systems work better without the TP_CT
connection.)

Clock Reference Interface
The REF_IN pin provides the ICS1893 Clock Reference Interface. The ICS1893 requires a single clock
reference with a frequency of 25 MHz ±50 parts per million. This accuracy is necessary to meet the
interface requirements of the ISO/IEEE 8802-3 standard, specifically clauses 22.2.2.1 and 24.2.3.4. The
ICS1893 supports two clock source configurations: a CMOS oscillator or a CMOS driver. The input to
REF_IN is CMOS (10% to 90% VDD), not TTL.

• Node or repeater applications
• Full-duplex or half-duplex data links
In addition to the ISO/IEC-specified, MII control signals, the ICS1893 provides RXTRI, which is a tri-state
enable pin for the MII receive data path. When this pin is active (that is, a logic one), the following pins are
tri-stated:
•

•
RXCLK
RXD[3:0]
RXDV
RXER
Functionally, the RXTRI pin affects the MII receive channel in the same way as the Control Register’s
isolate bit, bit 0.10. (The isolate bit also affects the transmit data path.) The ICS1893 can tri-state these
seven signals for all five types of MAC/Repeater Interface configurations, not just the MII interface.

Status Interface
The ICS1893 LSTA pin provides a Link Status, and its LOCK pin provides a Stream Cipher Locking Status.
In addition, as listed in Table 6-3, the ICS1893 provides five multi-function configuration pins that report the
results of continual link monitoring by providing signals that are intended for driving LEDs. (For the pin
numbers, see Table 9.3.2.)

Note:
1. During either a power-on reset or a hardware reset, each multi-function configuration pin is an input
that is sampled when the ICS1893 exits the reset state. After sampling is complete, these pins are
output pins that can drive status LEDs.
2. A software reset does not affect the state of a multi-function configuration pin. During a software reset,
all multi-function configuration pins are outputs.
3. Each multi-function configuration pin must be pulled either up or down with a resistor to establish the
address of the ICS1893. LEDs may be placed in series with these resistors to provide a designated
status indicator as described in Table 6-3.
Caution:
All pins listed in Table 6-3 must not float.
4. As outputs, the asserted state of a multi-function configuration pin is the inverse of the sense sampled
during reset. This inversion provides a signal that can illuminate an LED during an asserted state. For
example, if a multi-function configuration pin is pulled down to ground through an LED and a
current-limiting resistor, then the sampled sense of the input is low. To illuminate this LED for the
asserted state, the output is driven high.
5. Adding 10KΩ resistors across the LEDs ensures the PHY address is fully defined during slow VDD
power-ramp conditions.
6. PHY address 00 tri-states the MII interface. (Do not select PHY address 00 unless you want the MII
tri-stated.)

Functional Block: Media Independent Interface
All ICS1893 MII interface signals are fully compliant with the ISO/IEC 8802-3 standard. In addition, the
ICS1893 MIIs can support two data transfer rates: 25 MHz (for 100Base-TX operations) and 2.5 MHz (for
10Base-T operations).
The Media Independent Interface (MII) consists of two primary components:
1. An interface between a MAC (Media Access Control sublayer) and the PHY (that is, the ICS1893). This
MAC-PHY part of the MII consists of three subcomponents:
a. A synchronous Transmit interface that includes the following signals:
(1) A data nibble, TXD[3:0]
(2) An error indicator, TXER
(3) A delimiter, TXEN
(4) A clock, TXCLK
b. A synchronous Receive interface that includes the followings signals:
(1) A data nibble, RXD[3:0]
(2) An error indicator, RXER
(3) A delimiter, RXDV
(4) A clock, RXCLK
c. A Media Status or Control interface that consists of a Carrier Sense signal (CRS) and a Collision
Detection signal (COL).
2. An interface between the PHY (the ICS1893) and an STA (Station Management entity). The STA-PHY
part of the MII is a two-wire, Serial Management Interface that consists of the following:
a. A clock (MDC)
b. A synchronous, bi-directional data signal (MDIO) that provides an STA with access to the ICS1893
Management Register set
The ICS1893 Management Register set (discussed in Chapter 8, “Management Register Set”) consists of
the following:
• Basic Management registers.
As defined in the ISO/IEC 8802-3 standard, these registers include the following:
– Control Register (register 0), which handles basic device configuration
– Status Register (register 1), which reports basic device capabilities and status
• Extended Management registers.
As defined in the ISO/IEC 8802-3 standard, the ICS1893 supports Extended registers that provide
access to the Organizationally Unique Identifier and all auto-negotiation functionality.
• ICS (Vendor-Specific) Management registers.
The ICS1893 provides vendor-specific registers for enhanced PHY operations. Among these is the
QuickPoll Detailed Status Register that provides a comprehensive and consolidated set of real-time PHY
information. Reading the QuickPoll register enables the MAC to obtain comprehensive status data with
a single register access.

Functional Block: Auto-Negotiation
The auto-negotiation logic of the ICS1893 has the following main functions:
• To determine the capabilities of the remote link partner, (that is, the device at the other end of the link
segment’s medium or cable)
• To advertise the capabilities of the ICS1893 to the remote link partner
• To establish a protocol with the remote link partner using the highest-performance operating mode that
they have in common
The design of the ICS1893 Auto-Negotiation sublayer supports both legacy 10Base-T connections as well
as new connections that have multiple technology options for the link. For example, when the ICS1893 has
the auto-negotiation process enabled and it is operating with a 10Base-T remote link partner, the ICS1893
monitors the link and automatically selects the 10Base-T operating mode – even though the remote link
partner does not support auto-negotiation. This process, called parallel detection, is automatic and
transparent to the remote link partner and allows the ICS1893 to function seamlessly with existing legacy
network structures without any management intervention.
(For an overview of the auto-negotiation process, see Section 5.4, “Auto-Negotiation Operations”.)

Chapter 7
Functional Blocks
Auto-Negotiation General Process
The Auto-Negotiation sublayer uses a physical signaling technique that is transparent at the packet level
and all higher protocol levels. This technique builds on the link pulse mechanism employed in 10Base-T
operations and is fully compliant with clause 28 of the ISO/IEC 8802-3 standard.
During the auto-negotiation process, both the ICS1893 and its remote link partner use Fast Link Pulses
(FLPs) to simultaneously ‘advertise’(that is, exchange) information on their respective technology
capabilities as follows:
1. For the auto-negotiation process to take place, both the ICS1893 and its remote link partner must first
both support and be enabled for Auto-Negotiation.
2. The ICS1893 obtains the data for its FLP bursts from the Auto-Negotiation Advertisement Register
(Register 4).
3. Both the ICS1893 and the remote link partner substitute Fast Link Pulse (FLP) bursts in place of the
Normal Link Pulses (NLPs). In each FLP burst, the ICS1893 transmits information on its technology
capability through its Link Control Word, which includes link configuration and status data.
4. Similarly, the ICS1893 places the Auto-Negotiation data received from its remote link partner's FLP
bursts into the Auto-Negotiation Link Partner Ability Register (Register 5).
5. After the ICS1893 and its remote link partner exchange technology capability information, the ICS1893
Auto-Negotiation sublayer contrasts the data in Registers 4 and 5 and automatically selects for the
operating mode the highest-priority technology that both Register 4 and 5 have in common. (That is,
both the ICS1893 and its remote link partner use a predetermined priority list for selecting the operating
mode, thereby ensuring that both sides of the link make the same selection.) As follows from Annex
28B of the ISO/IEC 8802-3 standard, the pre-determined technology priorities are listed from 1 (highest
priority) to 5 (lowest priority):
(1) 100Base-TX full duplex
(2) 100Base-T4. (The ICS1893 does not support this technology.)
(3) 100Base-TX (half duplex)
(4) 10Base-T full duplex
(5) 10Base-T (half duplex)
Table 7-1 shows an example of how the selection process of the highest-priority technology takes
place.

6. To indicate that the auto-negotiation process is complete, the ICS1893 sets bits 1.5 and 17.4 high to
logic one. After successful completion of the auto-negotiation process, the ICS1893 Auto-Negotiation
sublayer performs the following steps:
a. It sets to logic one the Status Register’s Auto-Negotiation Complete bit (bit 1.5, which is also
available in the QuickPoll register as bit 17.4).
b. It enables the negotiated link technology (such as the 100Base Transmit modules and 100Base
Receive modules).
c. It disables the unused technologies to reduce the overall power consumption.

Chapter 7
Functional Blocks
Auto-Negotiation: Parallel Detection
The ICS1893 supports parallel detection. It is therefore compatible with networks that do not support the
auto-negotiation process. When enabled, the Auto-Negotiation sublayer can detect legacy 10Base-T link
partners as well as 100Base-TX link partners that do not have an auto-negotiation capability.
The Auto-Negotiation sublayer performs this parallel detection function when it does not get a response to
its FLP bursts. In these situations, the Auto-Negotiation sublayer performs the following steps:
1. It sets the LP_AutoNeg_Able bit (bit 6.0) to logic zero, thereby identifying the remote link partner as not
being capable of executing the auto-negotiation process.
2. It sets the bit in the Auto-Negotiation Link Partner Abilities Register that corresponds to the 'parallel
detected' technology [for example, half-duplex, 10Base-T (bit 5.5) or half-duplex, 100Base-TX (bit
5.7)].
3. It sets the Status Register’s Auto-Negotiation Complete bit (bit 1.5) to logic one, indicating completion
of the auto-negotiation process.
4. It enables the detected link technology and disables the unused technologies.
A remote link partner that does not support the auto-negotiation process does not respond to the
transmitted FLP bursts. The ICS1893 detects this situation and responds according to the data it receives.
The ICS1893 can receive one of five potential responses to the FLP bursts it is transmitting: FLP bursts,
10Base-T link pulses (that is, Normal Link Pulses), scrambled 100Base IDLEs, nothing, or a combination of
signal types.
A 10Base-T link partner transmits only Normal Link Pulses when idle. When the ICS1893 receives Normal
Link Pulses, it concludes that the remote link partner is a device that can use only 10Base-T technology. A
100Base-TX node without an Auto-Negotiation sublayer transmits 100M scrambled IDLE symbols in
response to the FLP bursts. Upon receipt of the scrambled IDLEs, the ICS1893 concludes that its remote
link partner is a 100Base-TX node that does not support the auto-negotiation process. For both 10Base-T
and 100Base-TX nodes without an Auto-Negotiation sublayer, the ICS1893 clears bit 6.0 to logic zero,
indicating that the link partner cannot perform the auto-negotiation process.
If the remote link partner responds to the FLP bursts with FLP bursts, then the link partner is a 100Base-TX
node that can support the auto-negotiation process. In this case, the ICS1893 sets to logic one the
Auto-Negotiation Expansion Register’s Link Partner Auto-Negotiation Ability bit (bit 6.0).
If the Auto-Negotiation sublayer does not receive any signal when monitoring the receive channel, then the
QuickPoll Detailed Status Register’s Signal Detect bit (bit 17.3) is set to logic one, indicating that no signal
is present.
Another possibility is that the ICS1893 senses that it is receiving multiple technology indications. In this
situation, the ICS1893 cannot determine which technology to enable. It informs the STA of this problem by
setting to logic one the Auto-Negotiation Expansion Register’s Parallel Detection Fault bit (bit 6.4).
7.2.3
Auto-Negotiation: Remote Fault Signaling
If the remote link partner detects a fault, the ICS1893 reports the remotely detected fault to the STA by
setting to logic one the Remote Fault Detected bit(s), 1.4, 5.13, 17.1, and 19.13. In general, the reception
of a remote fault means that the remote link partner has a problem with the integrity of its receive channel.
Similarly, if the ICS1893 detects a link fault, it transmits a remote fault-detected condition to its remote link
partner. In this situation, the ICS1893 sets to logic one the Auto-Negotiation Link Partner Ability Register’s
Remote Fault Indication bit (bit 4.13).
For details, see Section 8.14.3, “Remote Fault (bit 19.13)”and Section 8.3.9, “Remote Fault (bit 1.4)”.

Chapter 7
Functional Blocks
Auto-Negotiation: Reset and Restart
If enabled, execution of the ICS1893 auto-negotiation process occurs at power-up and upon management
request. There are two primary ways to begin the Auto-Negotiation state machine:
• ICS1893 reset
• Auto-Negotiation Restart
7.2.4.1
Auto-Negotiation Reset
During a reset, the ICS1893 initializes its Auto-Negotiation sublayer modules to their default states. (That
is, the Auto-Negotiation Arbitration State Machine and the Auto-Negotiation Progress Monitor reset to their
idle states.) In addition, the Auto-Negotiation Progress Monitor status bits are all set to logic zero. This
action occurs for any type of reset (hardware reset, software reset, or power-on reset).
7.2.4.2
Auto-Negotiation Restart
As with a reset, during an Auto-Negotiation restart, the ICS1893 initializes the Auto-Negotiation Arbitration
State Machine and the Auto-Negotiation Progress Monitor modules to their default states. However, during
an Auto-Negotiation Restart, the Auto-Negotiation Progress Monitor status bits maintain their current state.
Only three events can alter the state of the Auto-Negotiation Progress Monitor status bits after a Restart:
(1) an STA read operation, (2) a reset, or (3) the Auto-Negotiation Arbitration State Machine progressing to
a higher state or value.
The Auto-Negotiation Progress Monitor Status bits change only if they are progressing to a state with a
value greater than their current state (that is, a state with a higher logical value than that of their current
state). For a detailed explanation of these bits and their operation, see Section 7.2.5, “Auto-Negotiation:
Progress Monitor”.
After the Auto-Negotiation Arbitration State Machine reaches its final state (which is Auto-Negotiation
Complete), only an STA read of the QuickPoll Detailed Status Register or an ICS1893 reset can alter these
status bits.
Any of the following situations initiates a restart of the ICS1893 Auto-Negotiation sublayer:
• A link failure
• In software mode:
– Writing a logic one to the Control Register’s Restart Auto-Negotiation bit (bit 0.9), which is a selfclearing bit.
– Toggling the Control Register’s Auto-Negotiation Enable bit (bit 0.12) from a logic one to a logic zero,
and back to a logic one.
• In hardware mode:
– Toggling the ANSEL (Auto-Negotiation Select) pin from a logic one to a logic zero, and back to a
logic one.
7.2.5
Auto-Negotiation: Progress Monitor
Under typical circumstances, the Auto-Negotiation sublayer can establish a connection with the ICS1893’s
remote link partner. However, some situations can prevent the auto-negotiation process from properly
achieving this goal. For these situations, the ICS1893 has an Auto-Negotiation Progress Monitor to provide
detailed status information to its Station Management (STA) entity. With this status information, the STA
can diagnose the failure mechanism and – in some situations – establish the link by correcting the problem.
When enabled, the auto-negotiation process typically requires less than 500 ms to execute, independent of
the link partner's ability to perform the auto-negotiation process. Typically, an STA polls both the
Auto-Negotiation Complete bit (bit 1.5) and the Link Status bit (bit 1.2) to determine when a link is
successfully established, either through auto-negotiation or parallel detection. The STA can then poll the

Auto-Negotiation Link Partner Ability Register and determine the highest-performance operating mode in
common with the capabilities it is advertising.
The ISO/IEC-defined priority table determines the established link type. As a simpler alternative, the STA
can read the QuickPoll Detailed Status Register and determine the link type from the Data Rate bit (bit
17.15) and the Duplex bit (bit 17.14). For convenience, the QuickPoll Register also includes the Link Status
bit (bit 17.0) and the Auto-Negotiation Complete bit (bit 17.4).
If (1) the auto-negotiation process does not complete, or (2) the link is not established, or (3) both the
auto-negotiation process does not complete and the link is not established, then the STA can determine the
cause of the link failure by using the outputs of the ICS1893 Auto-Negotiation Progress Monitor.
The Auto-Negotiation Progress Monitor provides the STA with four status bits of data to indicate both the
history and the present state of the auto-negotiation process. This status data is provided in the QuickPoll
Detailed Status register by using the Auto-Negotiation Complete bit (bit 17.4) as well as bits 17.13:11. The
bit order, from most-significant bit to least-significant bit, is 17.4, 17.13, 17.12, and 17.11. Using these four
bits, the Auto-Negotiation Progress Monitor provides nine state codes detailing the operation of the
auto-negotiation process for the STA. [For more information, see Section 8.12.3, “Auto-Negotiation
Progress Monitor (bits 17.13:11)”.]
The nine Auto-Negotiation Progress Monitor state codes are 0h through 8h and Fh. The Auto-Negotiation
Progress Monitor automatically latches the values of the Auto-Negotiation Arbitration State Machine into
the status bits only if the value of the present state is greater than the value that is currently in the status
bits.
For example, if the status bits have a value of 3h and the auto-negotiation process moves into:
• State 1, the Auto-Negotiation Progress Monitor does not update the status bits to indicate the new state.
• State 5, the Auto-Negotiation Progress Monitor updates the status bits to indicate the new state, State 5.
In this case, the status bits increase in value until either the auto-negotiation process successfully
completes or the STA reads the Auto-Negotiation Progress Monitor status bits.
When the STA reads the status bits, the present state of the auto-negotiation process is automatically
latched into the status bits, regardless of how they compare to the value currently in the latch. However,
the read presents the STA with the previously latched values of the status bits, not the values just
latched into the status register by the read. Therefore, the STA must perform two reads of the status bits
to determine the present state of the Auto-Negotiation Arbitration State Machine.
The first read provides a 'history' of the auto-negotiation process, (that is, the highest state achieved by
the auto-negotiation process). The second read provides the present state of the auto-negotiation
process. This behavior allows management to determine the greatest forward progress made by the
auto-negotiation logic, which is valuable for diagnosing link errors and failures.
Note:
Once the auto-negotiation process completes successfully, the value of all the Progress Monitor
status bits and the Auto-Negotiation Complete bit have a value of logic one. A read operation of the
QuickPoll Register provides a value of logic one for the Auto-Negotiation Complete bit and an octal
value of 111 for the status bits.
Subsequent reads of the QuickPoll Register also provide a value of logic one for the
Auto-Negotiation Complete bit. However, the value of the status bits are 000b, providing the link
remains established.

Functional Block: 100Base-X PCS and PMA Sublayers
The ICS1893 is fully compliant with clause 24 of the ISO/IEC specification, which defines the 100Base-X
Physical Coding sublayer (PCS) and Physical Medium Attachment (PMA) sublayers.
7.3.1
PCS Sublayer
The ICS1893 100Base-X PCS sublayer provides two interfaces: one to a MAC/repeater and the other to
the ICS1893 PMA sublayer. An ICS1893’s PCS sublayer performs the transmit, receive, and control
functions and consists of the following:
• PCS Transmit sublayer, which provides the following:
– Parallel-to-serial conversion
– 4B/5B encoding
– Collision detection
• PCS Receive sublayer, which provides the following:
–
–
–
–
Serial-to-parallel conversion
4B/5B encoding
Carrier detection
Code group framing
• PCS control functions, which provide:
– Assertion of the CRS (carrier sense) signal
– Assertion of the COL (collision detection) signal
Note:
7.3.2
When configured for 100M Symbol mode operations, the MAC/Repeater Interface bypasses most
of the PCS. When the ICS1893 MAC/Repeater Interface is in this mode, most of its PCS Transmit
and Receive modules are inactive. However, its PCS control functions (CRS and COL) remain
operational.
PMA Sublayer
The ICS1893 100Base-X PMA Sublayer consists of two interfaces: one to the Physical Coding sublayer
and the other to the Physical Medium Dependent sublayer. Functionally, the PMA sublayer is responsible
for the following:

PCS/PMA Transmit Modules
Both the PCS and PMA sublayers have Transmit modules.
7.3.3.1
PCS Transmit Module
The ICS1893 PCS Transmit module accepts nibbles from the MAC/Repeater Interface and converts the
nibbles into 5-bit ‘code groups’(referred to here as ‘symbols’). In addition, the PCS Transmit module
performs a parallel-to-serial conversion on the symbols, and subsequently passes the resulting serial bit
stream to the PMA sublayer.
The first 16 nibbles of each MAC/Repeater Frame represent the Frame Preamble. The PCS replaces the
first two nibbles of the Frame Preamble with the Start-of-Stream Delimiter (SSD), that is, the symbols /J/K/.
After receipt of the last Frame nibble, detected when TX_EN = FALSE, the PCS appends to the end of the
Frame an End-of-Stream Delimiter (ESD), that is, the symbols /T/R/. (The ICS1893 PCS does not alter any
other data included within the Frame.)
The PCS Transmit module also performs collision detection. In compliance with the ISO/IEC specification,
when the transmission and reception of data occur simultaneously and the ICS1893 is in:
• Half-duplex mode, the ICS1893 asserts the collision detection signal (COL).
• Full-duplex mode, COL is always FALSE.
7.3.3.2
PMA Transmit Module
The ICS1893 PMA Transmit module accepts a serial bit stream from its PCS and converts the data into
NRZI format. Subsequently, the PMA passes the NRZI bit stream to the Twisted-Pair Physical Medium
Dependent (TP-PMD) sublayer.
The ICS1893 PMA Transmit module uses a digital PLL to synthesize a transmit clock from the Clock
Reference Interface. When the ICS1893 is configured for an interface that is:
• 10M MII (that is, 10Base-T), the TXCLK signal is 2.5 MHz
• 10M Serial Interface, the TXCLK signal is 10 MHz
• Either of the following, the TXCLK signal (a buffered version of the REF_IN signal) is 25 MHz:
– 100M MII (that is, 100Base-TX)
– 100M Symbol Interface
Note:
1. All of the TXCLK signals are derived from the REF_IN signal that goes to the digital PLL.
2. For the MII, for both the 10Base-T and 100Base-TX modes, the clock that is generated synchronizes
all data transfers across the MII.

PCS/PMA Receive Modules
Both the PCS and PMA sublayers have Receive modules.
7.3.4.1
PCS Receive Module
The ICS1893 PCS Receive module accepts both a serial bit stream and a clock signal from the PMA
sublayer. The PCS Receive module converts the bit stream from a serial format to a parallel format and
then processes the data to detect the presence of a carrier.
When a link is in the idle state, the PCS Receive module receives IDLE symbols. (All bits are logic one.)
Upon receiving two non-contiguous zeros in the bit stream, the PCS Receive module examines the
ensuing bits and attempts to locate the Start-of-Stream Delimiter (SSD), that is, the /J/K/ symbols.
Upon verification of a valid SSD, the PCS Receive module substitutes the first two standard nibbles of a
Frame Preamble for the detected SSD. In addition, the PCS Receive module uses the SSD to begin
framing the ensuing data into 5-bit code symbols. The final PCS Receive module performs 4B/5B decoding
on the symbols and then synchronously passes the resulting nibbles to the MAC/Repeater Interface.
The Receive state machine continues to accept PMA data, convert it from serial to parallel format, frame it,
decode it, and pass it to the MAC/Repeater Interface. During this time, the Receive state machine
alternates between Receive and Data States. It continues this process until detecting one of the following:
• An End-of-Stream Delimiter (ESD, that is, the /T/R/ symbols)
• An error
• A premature end (IDLEs)
Upon receipt of an ESD, the Receive state machine returns to the IDLE state without passing the ESD to
the MAC/Repeater Interface. Detection of an error forces the Receive state machine to assert the receive
error signal (RX_ER) and wait for the next symbol. If the ICS1893 Receive state machine detects a
premature end, it forces the assertion of the RX_ER signal, sets the Premature End bit (bit 17.5) to logic
one, and transitions to the IDLE State.
7.3.4.2
PMA Receive Modules
The ICS1893 has a PMA Receive module that provides the following functions:
• NRZI Decoding
The Receive module performs the NRZI decoding on the serial bit stream received from the Twisted-Pair
Physical Medium Dependent (TP-PMD) sublayer. It converts the bit stream to a unipolar, positive, binary
format that the PMA subsequently passes to the PCS.
• Receive Clock Recovery
The Receive Clock Recovery function consists of a phase-locked loop (PLL) that operates on the serial
data stream received from the PMD sublayer. This PLL automatically synchronizes itself to the clock
encoded in the serial data stream and then provides both a recovered clock and data stream to the PCS.
• Link Monitoring
– The ICS1893’s PMA Link Monitoring function observes the Receive Clock PLL. If the Receive Clock
PLL cannot acquire ‘lock’on the serial data stream, it asserts an error signal. The status of this error
signal can be read in the QuickPoll Detailed Status Register’s PLL Lock Error bit (bit 17.9). This bit is
a latching high (LH) bit. (For more information on latching high and latching low bits, see Section
8.1.4.1, “Latching High Bits”and Section 8.1.4.2, “Latching Low Bits”.)
– In addition, the ICS1893’s PMA Link Monitor function continually audits the state of the connection
with the remote link partner. It asserts a receive channel error if a receive signal is not detected or if
a PLL Lock Error occurs. These errors, in turn, generate a link fault and force the link monitor
function to clear both the Status Register’s Link Status bit (bit 1.2) and the QuickPoll Detailed Status
Register’s Link Status bit (bit 17.0).

PCS Control Signal Generation
For the PCS sublayer, there are two control signals: a Carrier Sense signal (CRS) and a Collision Detect
signal (COL).
The CRS control signals is generated as follows:
1. When a logic zero is detected in an idle bit stream, the Receive Functions examines the ensuing bits.
2. When the Receive Functions find the first two non-contiguous zero bits, the Receive state machine
moves into the Carrier Detect state.
3. As a result, the Boolean Receiving variable is set to TRUE.
4. Consequently, the Carrier Sense state machine moves into the Carrier Sense ‘on’state, which asserts
the CRS signal.
5. If the PCS Functions:
a. Cannot confirm either the /I/J/ (IDLE, J) symbols or the /J/K/ symbols, the receive error signal
(RX_ER) is asserted, and the Receive state machine returns to the IDLE state. In IDLE, the
Boolean Receiving variable is set to FALSE, thereby causing the Carrier Sense state machine to
set the CRS signal to FALSE.
b. Can confirm the /I/J/K/ symbols, then the Receive state machine transitions to the ‘Receive’state.
The COL control signal is generated by the transmit modules. For details, see Section 7.3.3.1, “PCS
Transmit Module”.
7.3.6
4B/5B Encoding/Decoding
The 4B/5B encoding methodology maps each 4-bit nibble to a 5-bit symbol (also called a “code group”).
There are 32 five-bit symbols, which include the following:
• Of the 32 five-bit symbols, 16 five-bit symbols are required to represent the 4-bit nibbles.
• The remaining 16 five-bit symbols are available for control functions. The IEEE Standard defines 6
symbols for control, and the remaining 10 symbols of this grouping are invalid. The 6 control symbols
include the following:
–
–
–
–
–
–
/H/, which represents a Halt, also used to signify a Transmit Error
/I/, which represents an IDLE
/J/, which represents the first symbol of the Start-of-Stream Delimiter (SSD)
/K/, which represents the second symbol of the Start-of-Stream Delimiter (SSD)
/T/, which represents the first symbol of the End-of-Stream Delimiter (ESD)
/R/, which represents the second symbol of the End-of-Stream Delimiter (ESD)
If the ICS1893 PCS receives:
– One of the 10 undefined symbols, it sets its QuickPoll Detailed Status Register’s Invalid Symbol bit
(bit 17.7) to logic one.
– A Halt symbol, it sets the Halt Symbol Detected bit in its QuickPoll Detailed Status Register (bit 17.6)
to logic one.
Note:
An STA can force the ICS1893 to transmit symbols that are typically classified as invalid, by both
(1) setting the Extended Control Register’s Transmit Invalid Codes bit (bit 16.2) to logic one and (2)
asserting the associated TXER signal. For more information, see Section 8.11.7, “Invalid Error
Code Test (bit 16.2)”.

Functional Block: 100Base-TX TP-PMD Operations
The ICS1893 supports both 10Base-T and 100Base-TX operations. For 100Base-TX operations, the
TP-PMD module performs stream-cipher scrambling/descrambling and MLT-3 encoding/decoding (3-level,
multi-level transition) in compliance with the ANSI Standard X3.263: 199X FDDI TP-PMD as defined in the
specification for 100Base-TX Twisted-Pair Physical Media Dependent (TP-PMD) Sublayer. The ICS1893’s
TP-PMD also performs DC restoration (that is, baseline wander correction) and adaptive equalization on
the received signals.
Note:
1. For an overview of 100Base-TX operations, see Section 5.5, “100Base-TX Operations”.
2. For more information on the Twisted-Pair Interface, see Section 6.5, “Twisted-Pair Interface”.
7.4.1
100Base-TX Operation: Stream Cipher Scrambler/Descrambler
When the ICS1893 is operating in 100Base-TX mode, it employs a stream cipher scrambler/descrambler
that complies with the ANSI Standard X3.263: 199X FDDI TP-PMD. The purpose of the stream cipher
scrambler is to spread the transmission spectrum to minimize electromagnetic compatibility problems. The
stream cipher descrambler restores the received serial bit stream to its unscrambled form.
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.
The MAC/Repeater Interface bypasses the stream cipher scrambler/descrambler when in the 100M
Symbol Interface mode.
7.4.2
100Base-TX Operation: MLT-3 Encoder/Decoder
When operating in the 100Base-TX mode, the ICS1893 TP-PMD sublayer employs an MLT-3 encoder and
decoder. During data transmission, the TP-PMD encoder converts the NRZI bit stream received from the
PMA sublayer to a 3-level Multi-Level Transition code. The three levels are -1, 0, and +1. The results of
MLT-3 encoding provide a reduction in the transmitted energy over the critical frequency range from 20
MHz to 100 MHz. The TP-PMD MLT-3 decoder converts the received three-level signal back to an NRZI bit
stream.
7.4.3
100Base-TX Operation: DC Restoration
The ICS1893’s 100Base-TX operations uses a stream-cipher scrambler to minimize peak amplitudes in the
frequency spectrum. However, the nature of the stream cipher and MLT-3 encoding is such that long
sequences of consecutive zeros or ones can exist. These unbalanced data patterns produce an
undesirable DC component in the data stream known as ‘baseline wander’.
Baseline wander adversely affects the noise immunity of the receiver, because the ‘baseline’signal moves
or ‘wanders’from its nominal DC value. The ICS1893 uses a unique technique to restore the DC
component ‘lost’by the medium. As a result, the design is very robust, immune to noise and independent
of the data stream.

Functional Blocks
100Base-TX Operation: Adaptive Equalizer
The ICS1893 has a TP-PMD sublayer that uses adaptive equalization circuitry to compensate for signal
amplitude and phase distortion incurred from the transmission medium. At a data rate of 100 Mbps, the
transmission medium (that is, the cable) introduces significant signal distortion because of high-frequency
attenuation and phase shift. The high-frequency loss occurs primarily because of the cable skin effect that
causes the conductor resistance to rise as the square of the frequency rises.
The ICS1893 has an adaptive equalizer that accurately compensates for these losses in shielded
twisted-pair (STP) and unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cables. The DSP-based adaptive equalizer uses a
technique that compensates for a wide range of cable lengths. The optimizing parameter for the
equalization process is the overall bit error rate of the ICS1893. This technique closes the loop on the entire
data reception process and provides a very high overall reliability.
7.4.5
100Base-TX Operation: Twisted-Pair Transmitter
The ICS1893 uses the same Twisted-Pair Transmit pins (TP_TXP and TP_TXN) for both 10Base-T and
100Base-TX operations. Each twisted-pair transmitter module is a current-driven, differential driver that
can supply either of the following:
• A two-level 10Base-T (that is, Manchester-encoded) signal
• A three-level 100Base-TX (that is, MLT-3 encoded) signal
The ICS1893 interfaces with the medium through an isolation transformer (sometimes referred to as a
magnetic module). The ICS1893’s transmitter uses wave-shaping techniques to control the output signal
rise and fall times (thereby eliminating the need for external filters) and interfaces directly to the isolation
transformer.
Note:
1. In reference to the ICS1893, the term ‘Twisted-Pair Transmitter’refers to the set of Twisted-Pair
Transmit output pins (TP_TXP and TP_TXN).
2. For information on the 10Base-T Twisted-Pair Transmitter, see Section 7.5.11, “10Base-T Operation:
Twisted-Pair Transmitter”.
7.4.6
100Base-TX Operation: Twisted-Pair Receiver
The ICS1893 uses the same Twisted-Pair Receive pins (TP_RXP and TP_RXN) for both 10Base-T and
100Base-TX operations. The internal twisted-pair receiver modules interface with the medium through an
isolation transformer. The 100Base-TX receiver module accepts and processes a differential three-level
100Base-TX (that is, MLT-3 encoded) signal from the isolation transformer. (In contrast, the 10Base-T
receiver module accepts and processes a differential two-level, Manchester- encoded, 10Base-T signal
from the isolation transformer).
Note:
1. In reference to the ICS1893, the term ‘Twisted-Pair Receiver’refers to the set of Twisted-Pair Receive
output pins (TP_RXP and TP_RXN).
2. For information on the 10Base-T Twisted-Pair Receiver, see Section 7.5.12, “10Base-T Operation:

100Base-TX Operation: Auto Polarity Correction
The ICS1893 can sense and then automatically correct a signal polarity that is reversed on its Twisted-Pair
Receiver inputs. A signal polarity reversal occurs when the input signals on the TP_RXP and TP_RXN pins
are crossed or swapped (a problem that can occur during network installation or wiring). This function is
primarily a 10Base-T function, however, it is also active during Auto-Negotiation. For more information on
the 10Base-T Auto Polarity Correction, see Section 7.5.13, “10Base-T Operation: Auto Polarity Correction”
7.4.8
100Base-TX Operation: Isolation Transformer
The ICS1893 interfaces with a medium through isolation transformers. The PHY requires two isolation
transformers: one for its Twisted-Pair Transmitter and the other for its Twisted-Pair Receiver. These
isolation transformers provide both physical isolation as well as the means for coupling a signal between
the ICS1893 and the medium for both 10Base-T and 100Base-TX operations.
Note:
For information on isolation transformers (also referred to as magnetic modules), see Section 6.5,
“Twisted-Pair Interface”.

Functional Block: 10Base-T Operations
When configured for 10Base-T mode, the ICS1893 MAC/Repeater Interface can be configured to provide
either a 10M MII (Media Independent Interface) or a 10M Serial Interface. The Twisted-Pair Interface is
automatically configured to provide a two-level, Manchester-encoded signal at the voltage levels specified
in the ISO/IEC standard. (For more information on the Twisted-Pair Interface, see Section 6.5,
“Twisted-Pair Interface”.)
The 10Base-T and 100Base-TX operations differ as follows. 10Base-T operations are fundamentally
simpler than 100Base-TX operations. The data rate is slower, requiring less encoding than 100Base-TX
operations. In addition, the bandwidth requirements (and therefore the line attenuation issues) are not as
severe as with 100-MHz operations. Consequently, when an ICS1893 is set for 10Base-T operations, it
requires fewer internal circuits in contrast to 100Base-TX operations. (For an overview of 10Base-T
operations, see Section 5.6, “10Base-T Operations”.).
7.5.1
10Base-T Operation: Manchester Encoder/Decoder
During data transmission the ICS1893 acquires data from its MAC/Repeater Interface in either 4-bit nibbles
or as a serial bit stream. The ICS1893 converts this data into a Manchester-encoded signal for presentation
to its MDI, as required by the ISO/IEC specification.
In a Manchester-encoded signal, all logic:
• Ones are:
– Positive during the first half of the bit period
– Negative during the second half of the bit period
• Zeros are:
– Negative during the first half of the bit period
– Positive during the second half of the bit period
During 10Base-T data reception, a Manchester Decoder translates the serial bit stream obtained from the
Twisted-Pair Receiver (MDI) into an NRZ bit stream. The Manchester Decoder then passes the data to the
MAC/Repeater Interface in either serial or parallel format, depending on the interface configuration.
Manchester-encoded signals have the following advantages:
• Every bit period has an encoded clock.
• The split-phase nature of the signal always provides a zero DC level regardless of the data (that is, there
is no baseline wander phenomenon).
The primary disadvantage in using Manchester-encoded signals is that it doubles the data rate, making it
operationally prohibitive for 100-MHz operations.
7.5.2
10Base-T Operation: Clock Synthesis
The ICS1893 synthesizes the clocks required for synchronizing data transmission. In 10Base-T mode, the
MAC/Repeater Interface can provide either a 10M MII (Media Independent Interface) or a 10M Serial
Interface. When the ICS1893 is configured to support a:
• 10M MII interface, the ICS1893 synthesizes a 2.5-MHz clock for nibble-wide transactions
• 10M Serial Interface to the MAC/repeater, the ICS1893 synthesizes a 10-MHz clock
7.5.3
10Base-T Operation: Clock Recovery
The ICS1893 recovers its receive clock from the Manchester-encoded data stream obtained from its
Twisted-Pair Receiver using a phase-locked loop (PLL). The ICS1893 then uses this recovered clock for
synchronizing data transmission between itself and the MAC/repeater. Receive-clock PLL acquisitions begin
with reception of the MAC Frame Preamble and continue as long as the ICS1893 is receiving data.

10Base-T Operation: Idle
An ICS1893 transmits Normal Link Pulses (that is, 10Base-T Idles) on its MDI in the absence of data (that is,
when the MAC/repeater is not requiring it to transmit any data). During this time the link is Idle, and the
ICS1893 periodically transmits link pulses at a rate of one link pulse every 16 ms in compliance with the
ISO/IEC 8802-3 standard. In 10Base-T mode, the ICS1893 continues transmitting link pulses even while
receiving data. This situation does not generate a Collision Detect signal (COL) because link pulses indicate
an idle state for a link.
7.5.5
10Base-T Operation: Link Monitor
When an ICS1893 is in 10Base-T mode, its Link Monitor Function observes the data received by the
10Base-T Twisted-Pair Receiver to determine the link status. The results of this continual monitoring are
stored in the Link Status bit. The Station Management entity (STA) can access the Link Status bit in either
the Status Register (bit 1.2) or the QuickPoll Detailed Status Register (bit 17.0).
When the Link Status bit is:
• Zero, either a valid link is not established or the link is momentarily dropped since either the last read of
the Link Status bit or the last reset of the ICS1893.
• One, a valid link is established.
The ICS1893 Link Status bit is a latching low (LL) bit. (For more information on latching high and latching
low bits, see Section 8.1.4.1, “Latching High Bits” and Section 8.1.4.2, “Latching Low Bits”.)
The criteria used by the Link Monitor Function to declare a link either valid (that is, ‘established’or ‘up’) or
invalid (that is, ‘failed’or ‘down’) depends upon these factors: the present state of the link, whether its
Smart Squelch function is enabled, and the incoming data.
When the 10Base-T link is:
• Invalid, and the Smart Squelch function is:
– Disabled (bit 18.0 is logic zero), the Link Monitor Function must detect at least one of the following
events before transitioning its link from the invalid state to the valid state:
• More than seven, ISO/IEC-defined, Normal Link Pulses (NLPs)
• Any valid data
– Enabled (bit 18.0 is logic one), the Link Monitor Function must detect at least one of the following
events before transitioning its link from the invalid state to the valid state:
• More than seven, ISO/IEC-defined, Normal Link Pulses (NLPs)
• Any valid data followed by a valid IDL
• Valid, and the Smart Squelch function is:
– Disabled (bit 18.0 is logic zero), the Link Monitor Function continues to report its link as valid as long
as it continues to detect any of the following:
• ISO/IEC-defined, Normal Link Pulses (NLPs)
• Any valid data
– Enabled (bit 18.0 is logic one), the Link Monitor Function continues to report its link as valid as long
as it continues to detect any of the following:
• ISO/IEC-defined, Normal Link Pulses (NLPs)
• Any valid data followed by a valid IDL
• Valid, the Link Monitor Function declares the link as invalid if it receives neither data nor NLPs (that is,
the link shows either no activity or inconsistent activity) for more than 81 to 83 ms. In this case the Link
Monitor Function sets the Link Status bit to logic zero.

Note:
1. An ICS1893 receives ‘valid data’when its Twisted-Pair Receiver phase-locked loop can acquire lock
and extract the receive clock from the incoming data stream for a minimum of three consecutive bit
times.
2. When a link is invalid and the Link Monitor Function detects the presence of data, the ICS1893 does
not transition the link to the valid state until after the reception of the present packet is complete.
3. Enabling or disabling the Smart Squelch Function affects the Link Monitor function.
4. A transition from the invalid state to the valid state does not automatically update the latching-low Link
Status bit.
7.5.6
10Base-T Operation: Smart Squelch
The Smart Squelch Function imposes more stringent requirements on the Link Monitor Function regarding
the definition of a valid link, thereby providing a level of insurance that spurious noise is not mistaken for a
valid link during cable installation.
An STA can control the execution of the ICS1893 Smart Squelch Function using bit 18.0 (the Smart
Squelch Inhibit bit in the 10Base-T Operations Register). When bit 18.0 is logic:
• Zero (the default), an ICS1893 enables its Smart Squelch Function. In this case, the Link Monitor must
confirm the presence of both data and a valid IDL at the end of the packet before declaring a link valid.
• One, an ICS1893 disables or inhibits its Smart Squelch Function. In this case, the Link Monitor does not
have to confirm the presence of an IDL to declare a link valid (that is, the reception of any data is
sufficient).
In 10Base-T mode, an ICS1893 appends an IDL to the end of each packet during data transmission. The
receiving PHY (that is, the remote link partner) sees this IDL and removes it from the data stream.
7.5.7
10Base-T Operation: Carrier Detection
The ICS1893 has a 10Base-T Carrier Detection Function that establishes the state of its Carrier Sense
signal (CRS), based upon the state of its Transmit and Receive state machines. These functions indicate
whether the ICS1893 is (1) transmitting data, (2) receiving data, or (3) in a collision state (that is, the
ICS1893 is both transmitting and receiving data on its twisted-pair medium, as defined in the ISO/IEC
8802-3 standard). When the ICS1893 is configured for:
• Half-duplex operations, the ICS1893 asserts its CRS signal when either transmitting or receiving data.
• Full-duplex operations (or when it is in Repeater mode), the ICS1893 asserts its CRS signal only when it
is receiving data.
7.5.8
10Base-T Operation: Collision Detection
The ICS1893 has a 10Base-T Collision Detection Function that establishes the state of its Collision
Detection signal (COL) based upon both (1) the state of its Receiver state machine and (2) the state of its
Transmit state machine. When the ICS1893 is operating in:
• Half-duplex mode, the ICS1893 asserts its COL signal to indicate it is receiving data while transmission
of data is also in progress.
• Full-duplex mode, the ICS1893 always sets its COL signal to FALSE.

10Base-T Operation: Jabber
The ICS1893 has an ISO/IEC compliant Jabber Detection Function that, when enabled, monitors the data
stream sent to its Twisted-Pair Transmitter to ensure that it does not exceed the 10Base-T Jabber
activation time limit (that is, the maximum transmission time). For more information, see Section 10.5.20,
“10Base-T: Jabber Timing”.
When the Jabber Detection Function detects that its transmission time exceeds the maximum Jabber
activation time limit and Jabber Detection is enabled, the ICS1893 asserts its Collision Detect (COL) signal.
During this ISO/IEC specified ‘jabber de-activation time’, the ICS1893 transmit data stream is interrupted
and prevented from reaching its Twisted-Pair Transmitter. During this time, when interrupting the data
stream and asserting its COL signal, the ICS1893 transmits Normal Link Pulses and sets its QuickPoll
Detailed Status Register’s Jabber Detected bit (bit 17.2) to logic one. This bit is a latching high (LH) bit. (For
more information on latching high and latching low bits, see Section 8.1.4.1, “Latching High Bits”and
Section 8.1.4.2, “Latching Low Bits”.)
The ICS1893 provides an STA with the ability to disable the Jabber Detection Function using the Jabber
Inhibit bit (bit 18.5 in the 10Base-T Operations Register). Setting bit 18.5 to logic:
• Zero (the default) enables the Jabber Detection Function.
• One disables the Jabber Detection Function.
7.5.10
10Base-T Operation: SQE Test
The ICS1893 has an ISO/IEC compliant Signal Quality Error (SQE) Test Function used exclusively for
10Base-T operations. When enabled, the ICS1893 performs the SQE Test at the completion of each
transmitted packet (that is, whenever its TX_EN signal transitions from asserted to de-asserted). When the
ICS1893 executes its SQE Test, it asserts the COL signal to its MAC Interface for a pre-determined time
duration (ISO/IEC specified). [For more information, see Section 10.5.19, “10Base-T: Heartbeat Timing
(SQE)”.]
An ICS1893 SQE Test Function is:
• Enabled only when all the following conditions are true:
–
–

The ICS1893 is in node mode.
The ICS1893 is in half-duplex mode.
The ICS1893 has a valid link.
The 10Base-T Operations Register’s SQE Test Inhibit bit (bit 18.2) is logic zero (the default).
The ICS1893 TX_EN signal has transitioned from asserted (high) to de-asserted (low).
• Disabled whenever any of the following are true:
–
–
–
–
The ICS1893 is in Repeater mode.
The ICS1893 is in full-duplex mode.
The ICS1893 detects a link failure.
The ICS1893 SQE Test Inhibit bit (bit 18.2) in the 10Base-T Operations Register is logic one. [This
bit provides the Station Management entity (STA) with the ability to disable the SQE Test function.]
Note:
1. In 10Base-T mode, a bit time has a typical duration of 100 ns.
2. The SQE Test also has the name 10Base-T Heartbeat. For details on the SQE waveforms, see Section
10.5.19, “10Base-T: Heartbeat Timing (SQE)”.

Functional Blocks
10Base-T Operation: Twisted-Pair Transmitter
The 10Base-T Twisted-Pair Transmitter is functionally similar to the 100Base-TX Twisted-Pair Transmitter.
The primary differences are in the data rate and signaling, as specified in the ISO/IEC specifications. For
more information, see Section 7.4.5, “100Base-TX Operation: Twisted-Pair Transmitter”.
7.5.12
10Base-T Operation: Twisted-Pair Receiver
The 10Base-T Twisted-Pair Receiver is functionally similar the 100Base-TX Twisted-Pair Receiver. The
primary differences are in the data rate and signaling, as specified in the ISO/IEC specifications. For more
information, see Section 7.4.6, “100Base-TX Operation: Twisted-Pair Receiver”.
7.5.13
10Base-T Operation: Auto Polarity Correction
The ICS1893 can sense and then automatically correct a signal polarity that is reversed on its Twisted-Pair
Receiver inputs. A signal polarity reversal occurs when the input signals on an ICS1893’s TP_RXP and
TP_RXN pins are crossed or swapped (a problem that can occur during network installation or wiring).
The ICS1893 accomplishes reversed signal polarity detection and correction by examining the signal
polarity of the Normal Link Pulses (NLPs). In 10Base-T mode, an ICS1893 transmits and receives NLPs
when its link is in the Idle state. In 100Base-TX mode, an ICS1893 transmits and receives NLPs during
Auto-Negotiation. An STA can control this feature using the 10Base-T Operations Register bit 18.3, the
Auto Polarity-Inhibit bit. When this bit is logic:
• Zero, the ICS1893 automatically senses and corrects a reversed or inverted signal polarity on its
Twisted-Pair Receive pins (TP_RXP and TP_RXN).
• One, the ICS1893 disables this feature.
When an ICS1893 detects a reversed signal polarity on its Twisted-Pair Receiver pins and the Auto
Polarity-Inhibit bit is also logic zero (enabled), the ICS1893 (1) automatically corrects the data stream and
(2) sets its Polarity Reversed bit (bit 18.14) to logic one, to indicate to the STA that this situation exists. Bit
18.14 is a latching high (LH) bit. (For more information on latching high and latching low bits, see Section
8.1.4.1, “Latching High Bits”and Section 8.1.4.2, “Latching Low Bits”.)
Note:
7.5.14
The Auto Polarity Correction Function is primarily a 10Base-T operation. However, it is part of the
Twisted-Pair Receiver and is operational during the 100Base-TX auto-negotiation process.
10Base-T Operation: Isolation Transformer
The 10Base-T Isolation Transformer operates the same as the 100Base-TX Isolation Transformer. In fact,
in a typical ICS1893 application they are the same unit. For more information, see Section 7.4.8,
“100Base-TX Operation: Isolation Transformer”.

Functional Block: Management Interface
As part of the MAC/Repeater Interface, the ICS1893 provides a two-wire serial management interface
which complies with the ISO/IEC 8802-3 standard MII Serial Management Interface. This interface is used
to exchange control, status, and configuration information between a Station Management entity (STA) and
the physical layer device (PHY). The PHY and STA exchange this data through a pre-defined set of
management registers. The ISO/IEC standard specifies the following components of this serial
management interface:
• A set of registers (Section 7.6.1, “Management Register Set Summary”)
• The frame structure (Section 7.6.2, “Management Frame Structure”)
• The protocol
In compliance with the ISO/IEC specification, the ICS1893 implementation of the serial management
interface provides a bi-directional data pin (MDIO) along with a clock (MDC) for synchronizing the
exchange of data. These pins remain active in all ICS1893 MAC/Repeater Interface modes (that is, the
10/100 MII, 100M Symbol, and 10M Serial interface modes).
7.6.1
Management Register Set Summary
The ICS1893 implements a Management Register set that adheres to the ISO/IEC standard. This register
set (discussed in detail in Chapter 8, “Management Register Set”) includes the mandatory ‘Basic’Control
and Status registers and the ISO/IEC ‘Extended’registers as well as some ICS-specific registers.
7.6.2
Management Frame Structure
The Serial Management Interface is a synchronous, bi-directional, two-wire, serial interface for the
exchange of configuration, control, and status data between a PHY, such as an ICS1893, and an STA. All
data transferred on an MDIO signal is synchronized by its MDC signal. The PHY and STA exchange data
through a pre-defined register set.
The ICS1893 complies with the ISO/IEC defined Management Frame Structure and protocol. This structure
supports both read and write operations. Table 7-2 summarizes the Management Frame Structure.
Note:
The Management Frame Structure starts from and returns to an IDLE condition. However, the
IDLE periods are not part of the Management Frame Structure.

7.6.2.1
Chapter 7
Functional Blocks
Management Frame Preamble
The ICS1893 continually monitors its serial management interface for either valid data or a Management
Frame (MF) Preamble, based upon the setting of the MF Preamble Suppression bit, 1.6. When the MF
Preamble Suppression is disabled, an ICS1893 waits for a MF Preamble which indicates the start of an
STA transaction. A Management Frame Preamble is a pattern of 32 contiguous logic one bits on the MDIO
pin, along with 32 corresponding clock cycles on the MDC pin.
The ICS1893 supports the Management Frame (MF) Preamble Suppression capability on its Management
Interface, thereby providing a method to shorten the Management Frame and provide an STA with faster
access to the Management Registers.
The ability to process Management Frames that do not have a preamble is provided by the Management
Frame Preamble Suppression bit, (bit 1.6 in the ICS1893’s Status Register). This is an ISO/IEC defined
status bit that is intended to provide an indication of whether or not a PHY supports the MF Preamble
Suppression feature. In order to maintain backward compatibility with the ICS1890, which did not support
MF Preamble Suppression, the ICS1893 MF Preamble Suppression bit is a Command Override Write bit
which defaults to a logic zero. An STA can enable MF Preamble Suppression by writing a logic one to bit
1.6 subsequent to a write of logic one to the Command Override bit, 16.15. For an explanation of the
Command Override Write bits, see Section 8.1.2, “Management Register Bit Access”.
7.6.2.2
Management Frame Start
A valid Management Frame includes a start-of-frame delimiter, SFD, immediately following the preamble.
The SFD bit pattern is 01b and is synchronous with two clock cycles on the MDC pin.
7.6.2.3
Management Frame Operation Code
A valid Management Frame includes an operation code (OP) immediately following the start-of-frame
delimiter. There are two valid operation codes: one for reading from a management register, 10b, and one
for writing to a management register, 01b. The ICS1893 does not respond to the codes 00b and 11b, which
the ISO/IEC specification defines as invalid.
7.6.2.4
Management Frame PHY Address
The two-wire, Serial Management Interface is specified to allow busing (that is, the sharing of the two wires
among multiple PHYs). The Management Frame includes a 5-bit PHY Address field, PHYAD, allowing for
32 unique addresses. An STA uniquely identifies each of the PHYs that share a single serial management
interface by using this 5-bit PHY Address field, PHYAD.
Upon receiving a valid STA transaction, during a power-on or hardware reset an ICS1893 compares the
PHYAD field included within the management frame with the value of its PHYAD bits stored in register 16.
(For information on the PHYAD bits, see Table 8-16.) An ICS1893 responds to all transactions that match
its stored address bits.
7.6.2.5
Management Frame Register Address
A Management Frame includes a 5-bit register address field, REGAD. This field identifies which of the 32
Management Registers are involved in a transaction between an STA and a PHY.
7.6.2.6
Management Frame Operational Code
A management frame includes a 2-bit operational code field, OP. If the operation code is a:
• Read, the REGAD field identifies the register used as the source of data returned to the STA by the
ICS1893.
• Write, the REGAD identifies the destination register that is to receive the data sent by the STA to the
ICS1893.

Chapter 7
Functional Blocks
Management Frame Turnaround
A valid management frame includes a turn-around field (TA), which is a 2-bit time space between the
REGAD field and the Data field. This time allows an ICS1893 and an STA to avoid contentions during read
transactions. During an operation that is a:
• Read, an ICS1893 remains in the high-impedance state during the first bit time and subsequently drives
its MDIO pin to logic zero for the second bit time.
• Write, an ICS1893 waits while the STA transmits a logic one, followed by a logic zero on its MDIO pin.
7.6.2.8
Management Frame Data
A valid management frame includes a 16-bit Data field for exchanging the register contents between the
ICS1893 and the STA. All Management Registers are 16 bits wide, matching the width of the Data field.
During a transaction that is a:
• Read, (OP is 10b) the ICS1893 obtains the contents of the register identified in the REGAD field and
returns this Data to the STA synchronously with its MDC signal.
• Write, (OP is 01b) the ICS1893 stores the value of the Data field in the register identified in the REGAD
field.
If the STA attempts to:
• Read from a non-existent ICS1893 register, the ICS1893 returns logic one for all bits in the Data field,
FFFFh.
• Write to a non-existent ICS1893 register, the ICS1893 isolates the Data field of the management frame
from every reaching the registers.
Note:
7.6.2.9
The first Data bit transmitted and received is the most-significant bit of a Management Register, bit
X.15.
Serial Management Interface Idle State
The MDIO signal is in an idle state during the time between STA transactions. When the Serial
Management Interface is in the idle state, the ICS1893 disables (that is, tri-states) its MDIO pin, which
enters a high-impedance state. The ISO/IEC 8802-3 standard requires that an MDIO signal be idle for at
least one bit time between management transactions. However, the ICS1893 does not have this limitation
and can support a continual bit stream on its MDIO signals.

Management Register Set
Management Register Bit Access
The ICS1893 Management Registers include one or more of the following types of bits:
Table 8-3.
Description of Management Register Bit Types
Management
Register Bit Types
8.1.3
Bit
Symbol
Description
Read-Only
RO
An STA can obtain the value of a RO register bit. However, it cannot
alter the value of (that is, it cannot write to) an RO register bit. The
ICS1893 isolates any STA attempt to write a value to an RO bit.
Command Override
Write
CW
An STA can read a value from a CW register bit. However, write
operations are conditional, based on the value of the Command
Register Override bit (bit 16.15). When bit 16.15 is logic:
• Zero (the default), the ICS1893 isolates STA attempts to write to
the CW bits (that is, CW bits cannot be altered when bit 16.15 is
logic zero).
• One, the ICS1893 permits an STA to alter the value of the CW bits
in the subsequent register write. (Bit 16.15 is self-clearing and
automatically clears to zero on the subsequent write.)
Read/Write
R/W
An STA can unconditionally read from or write to a R/W register bit.
Read/Write Zero
R/W0
An STA can unconditionally read from a R/W0 register bit, but only a
‘0’value can be written to this bit.
Management Register Bit Default Values
The tables in this chapter specify for each register bit the default value, if one exists. The ICS1893 sets all
Management Register bits to their default values after a reset. Table 8-4 lists the valid default values for
ICS1893 Management Register bits.
Table 8-4.
Range of Possible Valid Default Values for ICS1893 Register Bits
Default Condition
–
Indicates there is no default value for the bit
0
Indicates the bit’s default value is logic zero
1
Indicates the bit’s default value is logic one
State of pin at reset
Note:
Default Value
For some bits, the default value depends on the state (that is, the logic value) of a
particular pin at reset (that is, the logic value of a pin is latched at reset). An
example of pins that have a default condition that depends on the state of the pin
at reset are the PHY / LED pins (P0AC, P1CL, P2LI, P3TD, and P4RD) discussed
in the following sections:
• Section 6.8, “Status Interface”
• Section 8.11, “Register 16: Extended Control Register”
• Section 9.3.2, “Multi-Function (Multiplexed) Pins: PHY Address and LED Pins”
The ICS1893 has a number of reserved bits throughout the Management Registers. Most of these
bits provide enhanced test modes. The Management Register tables provide the default values for
these bits. The STA must not change the value of these bits under any circumstance. If the STA
inadvertently changes the default values of these reserved register bits, normal operation of the
ICS1893 can be affected.

Chapter 8
Management Register Set
Management Register Bit Special Functions
This section discusses the types of special functions for the Management Register bits.
8.1.4.1
Latching High Bits
The purpose of a latching high (LH) bit is to record an event. An LH bit records an event by monitoring an
active-high signal and then latching this active-high signal when it triggers (that is, when the event occurs).
A latching high bit, once set to logic one, remains set until either a reset occurs or it is read by an STA.
Immediately following an STA read of an LH bit, the ICS1893 latches the current state of the signal into the
LH bit. When an STA reads an LH bit:
• Once, the LL bit provides the STA with a history of whether or not the event has ever occurred. That is,
this first read provides the STA with a history of the condition and latches the current state of the signal
into the LL bit for the next read.
• Twice in succession, the LH bit provides the STA with the current state of the monitored signal.
8.1.4.2
Latching Low Bits
As with latching high bits, the purpose of a latching low (LL) bit is also to record an event. An LL bit records
an event by monitoring an active-low signal and then latching this active-low signal when it triggers (that is,
when the event occurs).
A latching low bit, once cleared to logic zero, remains cleared until either a reset occurs or it is read by an
STA. Immediately following an STA read of an LL bit, the ICS1893 latches the current state of the
active-low signal into the LL bit. When an STA reads an LL bit:
• Once, the LL bit provides the STA with a history of whether or not the event has ever occurred. That is,
this first read provides the STA with a history of the condition and latches the current state of the signal
into the LL bit for the next read.
• Twice in succession, the LL bit provides the STA with the current state of the monitored signal.
8.1.4.3
Latching Maximum Bits
For the ICS1893, the purpose of latching maximum (LMX) bits is to track the progress of internal state
machines. The LMX bits act in combination with other LMX bits to save the maximum collective value of a
defined group of LMX bits, from the most-significant bit to the least-significant bit.
For example, assume a group of LMX bits is defined as register bits 13 through 11. If these bits first have a
value of 3o (octal) and then the state machine they are monitoring advances to state:
• 2o, then the 2o value does not get latched.
• 4o (or any other value greater than 3o), then in this case, the value of 4o does get latched.
LMX bits retain their value until either a reset occurs or they are read by an STA. Immediately following an
STA read of a defined group of LMX bits, the ICS1893 latches the current state of the monitored state
machine into the LMX bits. When an STA reads a group of LMX bits:
• Once, the LMX bits provide the STA with a history of the maximum value that the state machine has
achieved and latches the current state of the state machine into the LMX bits for the next read.
• Twice in succession, the LMX bits provide the STA with the current state of the monitored state machine.
8.1.4.4
Self-Clearing Bits
Self-clearing (SC) bits automatically clear themselves to logic zero after a pre-determined amount of time
without any further STA access. The SC bits have a default value of logic zero and are triggers to begin
execution of a function. When the STA writes a logic one to an SC bit, the ICS1893 begins executing the
function assigned to that bit. After the ICS1893 completes executing the function, it clears the bit to indicate
that the action is complete.

‡ As per the IEEE Std 802.3u, during any write operation to any bit in this register, the STA must write the default value
to all Reserved bits.
8.2.1
Reset (bit 0.15)
This bit controls the software reset function. Setting this bit to logic one initiates an ICS1893 software reset
during which all Management Registers are set to their default values and all internal state machines are
set to their idle state. For a detailed description of the software reset process, see Section 5.1.2.3,
“Software Reset”.
During reset, the ICS1893 leaves bit 0.15 set to logic one and isolates all STA management register
accesses. However, the reset process is not complete until bit 0.15 (a Self-Clearing bit), is set to logic zero,
which indicates the reset process is terminated.

8.2.2
Chapter 8
Management Register Set
Loopback Enable (bit 0.14)
This bit controls the Loopback mode for the ICS1893. Setting this bit to logic:
• Zero disables the Loopback mode.
• One enables the Loopback mode by disabling the Twisted-Pair Transmitter, the Twisted-Pair Receiver,
and the collision detection circuitry. (The STA can override the ICS1893 from disabling the collision
detection circuitry in Loopback mode by writing logic one to bit 0.7.) When the ICS1893 is in Loopback
mode, the data presented at the MAC/repeater transmit interface is internally looped back to the
MAC/repeater receive interface. The delay from the assertion of Transmit Data Enable (TXEN) to the
assertion of Receive Data valid (RXDV) is less than 512 bit times.
8.2.3
Data Rate Select (bit 0.13)
This bit provides a means of controlling the ICS1893 data rate. Its operation depends on the state of
several other functions, including the HW/SW input pin and the Auto-Negotiation Enable bit (bit 0.12).
When the ICS1893 is configured for:
• Hardware mode (that is, the HW/SW pin is logic zero), the ICS1893 isolates this bit 0.13 and uses the
10/100SEL input pin to establish the data rate for the ICS1893. In this Hardware mode:
– Bit 0.13 is undefined.
– The ICS1893 provides a Data Rate Status bit (in the QuickPoll Detailed Status Register, bit 17.15),
which always shows the setting of an active link.
• Software mode (that is, the HW/SW pin is logic one), the function of bit 0.13 depends on the
Auto-Negotiation Enable bit 0.12. When the Auto-Negotiation sublayer is:
– Enabled, the ICS1893 isolates bit 0.13 and relies on the results of the auto-negotiation process to
establish the data rate.
– Disabled, bit 0.13 determines the data rate. In this case, setting bit 0.13 to logic:
• Zero selects 10-Mbps ICS1893 operations.
• One selects 100-Mbps ICS1893 operations.
8.2.4
Auto-Negotiation Enable (bit 0.12)
This bit provides a means of controlling the ICS1893 Auto-Negotiation sublayer. Its operation depends on
the HW/SW input pin.
When the ICS1893 is configured for:
• Hardware mode, (that is, the HW/SW pin is logic zero), the ICS1893 isolates bit 0.12 and uses the
ANSEL (Auto-Negotiation Select) input pin to determine whether to enable the Auto-Negotiation
sublayer.
Note: In Hardware mode, bit 0.12 is undefined.
• Software mode, (that is, the HW/SW pin is logic one), bit 0.12 determines whether to enable the
Auto-Negotiation sublayer. When bit 0.12 is logic:
– Zero:
• The ICS1893 disables the Auto-Negotiation sublayer.
• The ICS1893 bit 0.13 (the Data Rate bit) and bit 0.8 (the Duplex Mode bit) determine the data rate
and the duplex mode.
– One:
• The ICS1893 enables the Auto-Negotiation sublayer.
• The ICS1893 isolates bit 0.13 and bit 0.8.

Management Register Set
Low Power Mode (bit 0.11)
This bit provides one way to control the ICS1893 low-power mode function. When bit 0.11 is logic:
• Zero, there is no impact to ICS1893 operations.
• One, the ICS1893 enters the low-power mode. In this case, the ICS1893 disables all internal functions
and drives all MAC/repeater output pins low except for those that support the MII Serial Management
Port. In addition, the ICS1893 internally activates the TPTRI function to tri-state the signals on the
Twisted-Pair Transmit pins (TP_TXP and TP_TXN) and achieve additional power savings.
Note:
There are two ways the ICS1893 can enter low-power mode. When entering low-power mode:
• By setting bit 0.11 to logic one, the ICS1893 maintains the value of all Management Register bits
except the latching high (LH) and latching low (LL) status bits, which are re-initialized to their
default values instead. (For more information on latching high and latching low bits, see Section
8.1.4.1, “Latching High Bits”and Section 8.1.4.2, “Latching Low Bits”.)
• During a reset, the ICS1893 sets all management register bits to their default values.
8.2.6
Isolate (bit 0.10)
This bit controls the ICS1893 Isolate function. When bit 0.10 is logic:
• Zero, there is no impact to ICS1893 operations.
• One, the ICS1893 electrically isolates its data paths from the MAC/Repeater Interface. The ICS1893
places all MAC/repeater output signals (TXCLK, RXCLK, RXDV, RXER, RXD[3:0], COL, and CRS) in a
high-impedance state and it isolates all MAC/repeater input signals (TXD[3:0], TXEN, and TXER). In this
mode, the Serial Management Interface continues to operate normally (that is, bit 0.10 does not affect
the Management Interface).
The default value for bit 0.10 depends upon the PHY address of Table 8-16. If the PHY address:
• Is equal to 00000b, then the default value of bit 0.10 is logic one, and the ICS1893 isolates itself from the
MAC/Repeater Interface.
• Is not equal to 00000b, then the default value of bit 0.10 is logic zero, and the ICS1893 does not isolate
its MAC/Repeater Interface.
8.2.7
Restart Auto-Negotiation (bit 0.9)
This bit allows an STA to restart the auto-negotiation process in Software mode (that is, the HW/SW pin is
logic one). When bit 0.12 is logic:
• Zero, the Auto-Negotiation sublayer is disabled, and the ICS1893 isolates any attempt by the STA to set
bit 0.9 to logic one.
• One (as set by an STA), the ICS1893 restarts the auto-negotiation process. Once the auto-negotiation
process begins, the ICS1893 automatically sets this bit to logic zero, thereby providing the self-clearing
feature.

Duplex Mode (bit 0.8)
This bit provides a means of controlling the ICS1893 Duplex Mode. Its operation depends on several other
functions, including the HW/SW input pin and the Auto-Negotiation Enable bit (bit 0.12). When the ICS1893
is configured for:
• Hardware mode (that is, the HW/SW pin is logic zero), the ICS1893 isolates bit 0.8 and uses the
DPXSEL input pin to establish the Duplex mode for the ICS1893. In this Hardware mode:
– Bit 0.8 is undefined.
– The ICS1893 provides a Duplex Mode Status bit (in the QuickPoll Detailed Status Register, bit
17.14), which always shows the setting of an active link.
• Software mode (that is, the HW/SW pin is logic one), the function of bit 0.8 depends on the
Auto-Negotiation Enable bit, 0.12. When the auto-negotiation process is:
– Enabled, the ICS1893 isolates bit 0.8 and relies upon the results of the auto-negotiation process to
establish the duplex mode.
– Disabled, bit 0.8 determines the Duplex mode. Setting bit 0.8 to logic:
• Zero selects half-duplex operations.
• One selects full-duplex operations. (When the ICS1893 is operating in Loopback mode, it isolates
bit 0.8, which has no effect on the operation of the ICS1893.)
8.2.9
Collision Test (bit 0.7)
This bit controls the ICS1893 Collision Test function. When an STA sets bit 0.7 to logic:
• Zero, the ICS1893 disables the collision detection circuitry for the Collision Test function. In this case, the
COL signal does not track the TXEN signal. (The default value for this bit is logic zero, that is, disabled.)
• One, as per the ISO/IEE 8802-3 standard, clause 22.2.4.1.9, the ICS1893 enables the collision detection
circuitry for the Collision Test function, even if the ICS1893 is in Loopback mode (that is, bit 0.14 is set to
1). In this case, the Collision Test function tracks the Collision Detect signal (COL) in response to the
TXEN signal. The ICS1893 asserts the Collision signal (COL) within 512 bit times of receiving an
asserted TXEN signal, and it de-asserts COL within 4 bit times of the de-assertion of the TXEN signal.
8.2.10
IEEE Reserved Bits (bits 0.6:0)
The IEEE reserves these bits for future use. When an STA:
• Reads a reserved bit, the ICS1893 returns a logic zero.
• Writes to a reserved bit, it must use the default value specified in this data sheet.
The ICS1893 uses some reserved bits to invoke auxiliary functions. To ensure proper operation of the
ICS1893, an STA must maintain the default value of these bits. Therefore, ICS recommends that during
any STA write operation, an STA write the default value to all reserved bits, even those bits that are Read
Only.

100Base-TX Full Duplex (bit 1.14)
The STA reads this bit to learn if the ICS1893 can support 100Base-TX, full-duplex operations. The
ISO/IEC specification requires that the ICS1893 must set bit 1.14 to logic:
• Zero if it cannot support 100Base-TX, full-duplex operations.
• One if it can support 100Base-TX, full-duplex operations. (For the ICS1893, the default value of bit 1.14
is logic one, in that the ICS1893 supports 100Base-TX, full-duplex operations.)
Bit 1.14 is a Command Override Write bit, which allows an STA to alter the default value of this bit. [See the
description of bit 16.15, the Command Override Write Enable bit, in Section 8.11, “Register 16: Extended
Control Register”.]
8.3.3
100Base-TX Half Duplex (bit 1.13)
The STA reads this bit to learn if the ICS1893 can support 100Base-TX, half-duplex operations. The
ISO/IEC specification requires that the ICS1893 must set bit 1.13 to logic:
• Zero if it cannot support 100Base-TX, half-duplex operations.
• One if it can support 100Base-TX, half-duplex operations. (For the ICS1893, the default value of bit 1.13
is logic one. Therefore, when an STA reads the Status Register, the STA is informed that the ICS1893
supports 100Base-TX, half-duplex operations.)
This bit 1.13 is a Command Override Write bit, which allows an STA to alter the default value of this bit.
[See the description of bit 16.15, the Command Override Write Enable bit, in Section 8.11, “Register 16:
Extended Control Register”.]
8.3.4
10Base-T Full Duplex (bit 1.12)
The STA reads this bit to learn if the ICS1893 can support 10Base-T, full-duplex operations. The ISO/IEC
specification requires that the ICS1893 must set bit 1.12 to logic:
• Zero if it cannot support 10Base-T, full-duplex operations.
• One if it can support 10Base-T, full-duplex operations. (For the ICS1893, the default value of bit 1.12 is
logic one. Therefore, when an STA reads the Status Register, the STA is informed that the ICS1893
supports 10Base-T, full-duplex operations.)
This bit 1.12 is a Command Override Write bit, which allows an STA to alter the default value of this bit.
[See the description of bit 16.15, the Command Override Write Enable bit, in Section 8.11, “Register 16:
Extended Control Register”.]
8.3.5
10Base-T Half Duplex (bit 1.11)
The STA reads this bit to learn if the ICS1893 can support 10Base-T, half-duplex operations. The ISO/IEC
specification requires that the ICS1893 must set bit 1.11 to logic:
• Zero if it cannot support 10Base-T, half-duplex operations.
• One if it can support 10Base-T, half-duplex operations. (For the ICS1893, the default value of bit 1.11 is
logic one. Therefore, when an STA reads the Status Register, the STA is informed that the ICS1893
supports 10Base-T, half-duplex operations.)
Bit 1.11 of the ICS1893 Status Register is a Command Override Write bit., which allows an STA to alter the
default value of this bit. [See the description of bit 16.15, the Command Override Write Enable bit, in
Section 8.11, “Register 16: Extended Control Register”.]

Management Register Set
IEEE Reserved Bits (bits 1.10:7)
The IEEE reserves these bits for future use. When an STA:
• Reads a reserved bit, the ICS1893 returns a logic zero.
• Writes a reserved bit, the STA must use the default value specified in this data sheet.
Both the ISO/IEC standard and the ICS1893 reserve the use of some Management Register bits. ICS uses
some reserved bits to invoke ICS1893 test functions. To ensure proper operation of the ICS1893, an STA
must maintain the default value of these bits. Therefore, ICS recommends that an STA write the default
value to all reserved bits during all Management Register write operations.
Reserved bits 1.10:7 are Command Override Write (CW) bits. When bit 16.15, the Command Register
Override bit, is logic:
• Zero, the ICS1893 prevents all STA writes to CW bits.
• One, an STA can modify the value of these bits.
8.3.7
MF Preamble Suppression (bit 1.6)
Status Register bit 1.6 is the Management Frame (MF) Preamble Suppression bit. The ICS1893 sets bit 1.6
to inform the STA of its ability to receive frames that do not have a preamble. When this bit is logic:
• Zero, the ICS1893 is indicating it cannot accept frames with a suppressed preamble.
• One, the ICS1893 is indicating it can accept frames that do not have a preamble.
Although the ICS1893 supports Management Frame Preamble Suppression, its default value for bit 1.6 is
logic zero. This default value ensures that bit 1.6 is backward compatible with the ICS1890, which does not
have this capability. As the means of enabling this feature, the ICS1893 implements bit 1.6 as a Command
Override Write bit, instead of as a Read-Only bit as in the ICS1890. An STA uses the bit 1.6 to enable MF
Preamble Suppression in the ICS1893. [See the description of bit 16.15, the Command Override Write
Enable bit, in Section 8.11, “Register 16: Extended Control Register”.]
8.3.8
Auto-Negotiation Complete (bit 1.5)
An STA reads bit 1.5 to determine the state of the ICS1893 auto-negotiation process. The ICS1893 sets
the value of this bit using two criteria. When its Auto-Negotiation sublayer is:
• Disabled, the ICS1893 sets bit 1.5 to logic zero.
• Enabled, the ICS1893 sets bit 1.5 to a value based on the state of the Auto-Negotiation State Machine.
In this case, it sets bit 1.5 to logic one only upon completion of the auto-negotiation process. This setting
indicates to the STA that a link is arbitrated and the contents of Management Registers 4, 5, and 6 are
valid. For details on the auto-negotiation process, see Section 7.2, “Functional Block: Auto-Negotiation”.
Bit 1.5 is a latching high (LH) bit. (For more information on latching high and latching low bits, see Section
8.1.4.1, “Latching High Bits”and Section 8.1.4.2, “Latching Low Bits”.)
Note:
An Auto-Negotiation Restart does not clear an LH bit. However, performing two consecutive reads
of this register provides the present state of the bit.

Remote Fault (bit 1.4)
An STA reads bit 1.4 to determine if a Remote Fault exists. The ICS1893 sets bit 1.4 based on the Remote
Fault bit received from its remote link partner. The ICS1893 receives the Remote Fault bit as part of the
Link Code Word exchanged during the auto-negotiation process. If the ICS1893 receives a Link Code
Word from its remote link partner and the Remote Fault bit is set to:
• Zero, then the ICS1893 sets bit 1.4 to logic zero.
• One, then the ICS1893 sets bit 1.4 to logic one. In this case, the remote link partner is reporting the
detection of a fault, which typically occurs when the remote link partner is having a problem with its
receive channel.
Bit 1.4 is a latching high status bit. (For more information on latching high and latching low bits, see Section
8.1.4.1, “Latching High Bits”and Section 8.1.4.2, “Latching Low Bits”.)
Note:
The ICS1893 has two versions of the Remote Fault bit.
• One version of the Remote Fault bit is a latching high version. An STA can access this version
through either Management Register 1 (bit 1.4) or 17 (bit 17.1). This bit 1.4/17.1 is cleared when
an STA reads either of these registers. (Bit 1.4 is identical to bit 17.1 in that they are the same
internal bit.)
• Another version of the Remote Fault bit is updated whenever the ICS1893 receives a new Link
Control Word. An STA can access this version through Management Register 5 (bit 5.13), which
like bits 1.4/17.1, also reports the status of the Remote Fault bit received from the remote link
partner. However, bit 5.13 is not a latching high bit.
The operation of both bit 1.4/17.1 and bit 5.13 are in compliance with the IEEE Std 802.3u.
8.3.10
Auto-Negotiation Ability (bit 1.3)
The STA reads bit 1.3 to determine if the ICS1893 can support the auto-negotiation process. If the
ICS1893:
• Cannot support the auto-negotiation process, it clears bit 1.3 to logic zero.
• Can support the auto-negotiation process, it sets bit 1.3 to logic one. (For the ICS1893, the default value
of bit 1.3 is logic one.)

Management Register Set
Link Status (bit 1.2)
The purpose of this bit 1.2 (which is also accessible through the QuickPoll Detailed Status Register, bit
17.0) is to determine if an established link is dropped, even momentarily. To indicate a link that is:
• Valid, the ICS1893 sets bit 1.2 to logic one.
• Invalid, the ICS1893 clears bit 1.2 to logic zero.
This bit is a latching low (LL) bit that the Link Monitor function controls. (For more information on latching
high and latching low bits, see Section 8.1.4.1, “Latching High Bits”and Section 8.1.4.2, “Latching Low
Bits”.) The Link Monitor function continually observes the data received by either its 10Base-T or
100Base-TX Twisted-Pair Receivers to determine the link status and stores the results in the Link Status
bit.
The criterion the Link Monitor uses to determine if a link is valid or invalid depends on the following:
•
•
•
•
Type of link
Present link state (valid or invalid)
Presence of any link errors
Auto-negotiation process
For more information on the Link Monitor Function (relative to the Link Status bit), see Section 7.5.5,
“10Base-T Operation: Link Monitor”.
8.3.12
Jabber Detect (bit 1.1)
The purpose of this bit is to allow an STA to determine if the ICS1893 detects a Jabber condition as defined
in the ISO/IEC specification.The ICS1893 Jabber Detection function is controlled by the Jabber Inhibit bit in
the 10Base-T Operations register (bit 18.5). To detect a Jabber condition, first the ICS1893 Jabber
Detection function must be enabled. When bit 18.5 is logic:
• Zero, the ICS1893 disables Jabber Detection and sets the Jabber Detect bit to logic zero.
• One, the ICS1893 enables Jabber Detection and sets the Jabber Detect bit to logic one upon detection
of a Jabber condition. When no Jabber condition is detected, the Jabber Detect bit is not altered.
Note:
1. The Jabber Detect bit is accessible through both the Status register (as bit 1.1) and the QuickPoll
Detailed Status Register (as bit 17.2). A read of either register clears the Jabber Detect bit.
2. The Jabber Detect bit is a latching high (LH) bit. (For more information on latching high and latching low
bits, see Section 8.1.4.1, “Latching High Bits”and Section 8.1.4.2, “Latching Low Bits”.)
8.3.13
Extended Capability (bit 1.0)
The STA reads bit 1.0 to determine if the ICS1893 has an extended register set. In the ICS1893 this bit is
always logic one, indicating that it has extended registers.

Register 3: PHY Identifier Register
Table 8-9 lists the bits for PHY Identifier Register (Register 3), which is one of two PHY Identifier Registers
that are part of a set defined by the ISO/IEC specification. This register stores the following:
• Part of the OUI [see the text in Section 8.4, “Register 2: PHY Identifier Register”]
• Manufacturer’s PHY Model Number
• Manufacturer’s PHY Revision Number
All the bits in the two PHY Identifier Registers are Command Override Write bits. An STA can read them at
any time without condition. However, An STA can modify these register bits only when the Command
Register Override bit (bit 16.15) is enabled with a logic one.

Register 4: Auto-Negotiation Register
Table 8-11 lists the bits for the Auto-Negotiation Register. An STA uses this register to select the ICS1893
capabilities that it wants to advertise to its remote link partner. During the auto-negotiation process, the
ICS1893 advertises (that is, exchanges) capability data with its remote link partner by using a pre-defined
Link Code Word. The Link Code Word is embedded in the Fast Link Pulses exchanged between PHYs
when the ICS1893 has its Auto-Negotiation sublayer enabled. The value of the Link Control Word is
established based on the value of the bits in this register.

8.6.1
In Hardware mode (that is, HW/SW pin is logic zero), this bit is a Read-Only bit.
In Software mode (that is, HW/SW pin is logic one), this bit is a Command Override Write bit.
Next Page (bit 4.15)
This bit indicates whether the ICS1893 uses the Next Page Mode functions during the auto-negotiation
process. If bit 4.15 is logic:
• Zero, then the ICS1893 indicates to its remote link partner that these features are disabled. (Although
the default value of this bit is logic zero, the ICS1893 does support the Next Page function.)

Chapter 8
Management Register Set
IEEE Reserved Bit (bit 4.14)
The ISO/IEC specification reserves this bit for future use. However, the ISO/IEC Standard also defines bit
4.14 as the Acknowledge bit.
When this reserved bit is read by an STA, the ICS1893 returns a logic zero. However, whenever an STA
writes to this reserved bit, it must use the default value specified in this data sheet. ICS uses some
reserved bits to invoke auxiliary functions. To ensure proper operation of the ICS1893, an STA must
maintain the default value of these bits. Therefore, ICS recommends that an STA always write the default
value of any reserved bits during all management register write operations.
Reserved bit 4.14 is a Command Override Write (CW) bit. Whenever bit 16.15 (the Command Register
Override bit) is logic:
• Zero, the ICS1893 isolates all STA writes to bit 4.14.
• One, an STA can modify the value of bit 4.14.
8.6.3
Remote Fault (bit 4.13)
When the ICS1893 Auto-Negotiation sublayer is enabled, the ICS1893 transmits the Remote Fault bit 4.13
to its remote link partner during the auto-negotiation process. The Remote Fault bit is part of the Link Code
Word that the ICS1893 exchanges with its remote link partner. The ICS1893 sets this bit to logic one
whenever it detects a problem with the link, locally. The data in this register is sent to the remote link partner
to inform it of the potential problem. If the ICS1893 does not detect a link fault, it clears bit 4.13 to logic zero.
Whenever the ICS1893:
• Does not detect a link fault, the ICS1893 clears bit 4.13 to logic zero.
• Detects a problem with the link, during the auto-negotiation process, this bit is set. As a result, the data
on this bit is sent to the remote link partner to inform it of the potential problem.
8.6.4
IEEE Reserved Bits (bits 4.12:10)
The IEEE reserves these bits for future use. When an STA:
• Reads a reserved bit, the ICS1893 returns a logic zero.
• Writes to a reserved bit, it must use the default value specified in this data sheet.
The ICS1893 uses some reserved bits to invoke auxiliary functions. To ensure proper operation of the
ICS1893, an STA must maintain the default value of these bits. Therefore, ICS recommends that during
any STA write operation, an STA write the default value to all reserved bits, even those bits that are Read
Only.

Chapter 8
Management Register Set
Technology Ability Field (bits 4.9:5)
When its Auto-Negotiation sublayer is enabled, the ICS1893 transmits its link capabilities to its remote link
partner during the auto-negotiation process. The Technology Ability Field (TAF) bits 4.12:5 determine the
specific abilities that the ICS1893 advertises. The ISO/IEC specification defines the TAF technologies in
Annex 28B.
The ISO/IEC specification reserves bits 4.12:10 for future use. When each of these reserved bits is:
• Read by an STA, the ICS1893 returns a logic zero
• Written to by an STA, the STA must use the default value specified in this data sheet
ICS uses some reserved bits to invoke auxiliary functions. To ensure proper operation of the ICS1893, an
STA must maintain the default value of these bits. Therefore, ICS recommends that an STA always write
the default value of any reserved bits during all management register write operations.
Reserved bits 4.12:10 are Command Override Write (CW) bits. Whenever bit 16.15 (the Command
Register Override bit) is logic:
• Zero, the ICS1893 isolates all STA writes to CW bits, including bits 4.12:10.
• One, an STA can modify the value of bits 4.12:10
Each of the bits 4.9:5 in the TAF represent a specific technology capability. When one of these bits is logic:
• Zero, it indicates to the remote link partner that the local device cannot support the technology
represented by the bit.
• One, it indicates to the remote link partner that the local device can support the technology.
With the exception of bit 4.9, the default settings of the TAF bits depend on the ICS1893 operating mode.
Bit 4.9 is always logic zero, indicating that the ICS1893 cannot support 100Base-T4 operations.
8.6.5.1
Technology Ability Field: Hardware Mode
When the ICS1893 is operating in hardware mode (that is, the HW/SW pin is logic zero), these TAF bits are
Read-Only bits. The default value of these bits depends on the signal level on the HW/SW pin and whether
the Auto-Negotiation sublayer is enabled.
In hardware mode, with the ANSEL pin pulled:
• Low to a disabled state, the ICS1893 does not execute the auto-negotiation process. Upon completion
of the initialization sequence, the ICS1893 proceeds to the idle state and begins ‘sending idles’
according to the technology mode selected by the 10/100SEL pin and the DPXSEL pin. In this mode, the
values of the TAF bits (bits 4.8:5) are undefined.
• High to an enabled state, the ICS1893 executes the auto-negotiation process and advertises its
capabilities to the remote link partner immediately following reset. The 10/100SEL and DPXSEL input
pins determine the single capability that the ICS1893 advertises. The ICS1893 updates the
Auto-Negotiation Advertisement Register TAF field to indicate the selection made by these pins. The
ICS1893 sets only one of these four bits to logic one. The other three bits are a logic zero.
Note:
The ICS1893 does not alter the value of the Status Register bits. Although the ICS1893 is
advertising only one technology, the ISO/IEC definitions for the Status Register bits require
these bits to indicate all the capabilities of the ICS1893.

8.6.5.2
Chapter 8
Management Register Set
Technology Ability Field: Software Mode
In Software mode (that is, the HW/SW pin is logic one), these TAF bits are Command Override Write bits.
The default value of these bits depends on the signal level on the HW/SW pin and whether the
Auto-Negotiation sublayer is enabled.
In Software mode, with the Auto-Negotiation Enable bit (bit 0.12) set to logic:
• Zero (that is, disabled), the ICS1893 does not execute the auto-negotiation process. Upon completion of
the initialization sequence, the ICS1893 proceeds to the Idle state and begins transmitting IDLES. Two
Control Register bits – the Data Rate Select bit (bit 0.13) and the Duplex Select bit (bit 0.8) – determine
the technology mode that the ICS1893 uses for data transmission and reception. In this mode, the
values of the TAF bits (bits 4.8:5) are undefined.
• One (that is, enabled), the ICS1893 executes the auto-negotiation process and advertises its capabilities
to the remote link partner. The TAF bits (bits 4.8:5) determine the capabilities that the ICS1893
advertises to its remote link partner. For the ICS1893, all of these bits 4.8:5 are set to logic one,
indicating the ability of the ICS1893 to provide these technologies.
Note:
1. The ICS1893 does not alter the value of the Status Register bits based on the TAF bits in register
4, as the ISO/IEC definitions for the Status Register bits require these bits to indicate all the
capabilities of the ICS1893.
2. In this mode, an STA can alter the default TAF bit settings, 4.12:5, and subsequently issue an
Auto-Negotiation Restart.
8.6.6
Selector Field (Bits 4.4:0)
When its Auto-Negotiation Sublayer is enabled, the ICS1893 transmits its link capabilities to its remote Link
Partner during the auto-negotiation process. The Selector Field is transmitted based on the value of bits
4.4:0. These bits indicate to the remote link partner the type of message being sent during the
auto-negotiation process. The ICS1893 supports IEEE Std 802.3, represented by a value of 00001b in bits
4.4:0. The ISO/IEC 8802-3 standard defines the Selector Field technologies in Annex 28A.

Register 5: Auto-Negotiation Link Partner Ability Register
Table 8-12 lists the bits for the Auto-Negotiation Link Partner Ability Register. An STA uses this register to
determine the capabilities being advertised by the remote link partner. During the auto-negotiation process,
the ICS1893 advertises (that is, exchanges) the capability data with its remote link partner using a
pre-defined Link Code Word. The value of the Link Control Word received from its remote link partner
establishes the value of the bits in this register.
Note:
1. For an explanation of acronyms used in Table 8-12, see Chapter 1, “Abbreviations and Acronyms”.
2. The values in this register are valid only when the auto-negotiation process is complete, as indicated by

Acknowledge (bit 5.14)
The ISO/IEC specification defines bit 5.14 as the Acknowledge bit. When this bit is a:
• Zero, it indicates that the remote link partner has not received the ICS1893 Link Control Word.
• One, it indicates to the ICS1893 / STA that the remote link partner has acknowledged reception of the
ICS1893 Link Control Word.
8.7.3
Remote Fault (bit 5.13)
The ISO/IEC specification defines bit 5.13 as the Remote Fault bit. This bit is set based on the Link Control
Word received from the remote link partner. When this bit is a logic:
• Zero, it indicates that the remote link partner detects a Link Fault.
• One, it indicates to the ICS1893 / STA that the remote link partner detects a Link Fault.
Note:
8.7.4
For more information about this bit, see Section 8.3.9, “Remote Fault (bit 1.4)”.
Technology Ability Field (bits 5.12:5)
The Technology Ability Field (TAF) bits (bits 5.12:5) determine the specific abilities that the remote link
partner is advertising. These bits are set based upon the Link Code Word received from the remote link
partner during the auto-negotiation process. The ISO/IEC specification defines the TAF technologies in
Annex 28B.
The ISO/IEC specification reserves bits 5.12:10 for future use. When each of these reserved bits is:
• Read by an STA, the ICS1893 returns a logic zero.
• Written to by an STA, the STA must use the default value specified in this data sheet.
ICS uses some reserved bits to invoke auxiliary functions. To ensure proper operation of the ICS1893, an
STA must maintain the default value of these bits. Therefore, ICS recommends that an STA always write
the default value of any reserved bits during all management register write operations.
8.7.5
Selector Field (bits 5.4:0)
The Selector Field bits indicate the technology or encoding that the remote link partner is using for the

† As per the IEEE Std 802.3u, during any write operation to any bit in this register, the STA must write the default value
to all Reserved bits.
8.8.1
IEEE Reserved Bits (bits 6.15:5)
The ISO/IEC specification reserves these bits for future use. When an STA:
• Reads a reserved bit, the ICS1893 returns a logic zero.
• Writes to a reserved bit, the STA must use the default value specified in this data sheet.
ICS uses some reserved bits to invoke auxiliary functions. To ensure proper operation of the ICS1893, an
STA must maintain the default value of these bits. Therefore, ICS recommends that an STA always write
the default value of any reserved bits during all management register write operations.
Reserved bits 5.15:5 are Command Override Write (CW) bits. When the Command Register Override bit
(bit 16.15) is logic:
• Zero, the ICS1893 isolates all STA writes to CW bits.
• One, an STA can modify the value of these bits

Management Register Set
Next Page (bit 7.15)
This bit is used by a PHY/STA to enable the transmission of Next Pages following the base Link Control
Word as long as the remote link partner supports the Next Page features of Auto-Negotiation.
This bit is used to establish the state of the Next Page (NP) bit of the Next Page Link Control Word (that is,
the NP bit of the Next Page Link Control Word tracks this bit). During a Next Page exchange, if the NP bit
is logic:
• Zero, it indicates to the remote link partner that this is the last Message or Page.
• One, it indicates to the remote link partner that additional Pages follow this Message.
8.9.2
IEEE Reserved Bit (bit 7.14)
The ISO/IEC specification reserves this bit for future use. When this reserved bit is:
• Read by an STA, the ICS1893 returns a logic zero.
• Written to by an STA, the STA must use the default value specified in this data sheet.
ICS uses some reserved bits to invoke auxiliary functions. To ensure proper operation of the ICS1893, an
STA must maintain the default value of these bits. Therefore, ICS recommends that an STA always write
the default value of any reserved bits during all management register write operations.
8.9.3
Message Page (bit 7.13)
The Message Page (MP) bit (bit 7.13) is used to determine the format or type of Page being transmitted.
The value of this bit establishes the state of the MP bit in the Next Page Link Control Word.
If this bit is set to logic:
• Zero, it indicates that the Page is an Unformatted Page.
• One, it indicates to the remote link partner that the Page being transmitted is a Message Page.
8.9.4
Acknowledge 2 (bit 7.12)
This bit is used to indicate the ability of the ICS1893 to comply with a message.
The value of this bit establishes the state of the Ack2 bit in the Next Page Link Control Word. If this bit is set
to logic:
• Zero, it indicates that the ICS1893 cannot comply with the message.
• One, it indicates to the remote link partner that the ICS1893 can comply with the message.
8.9.5
Toggle (bit 7.11)
The Toggle (T) bit (bit 7.11) is used to synchronize the transmission of Next Page messages with the
remote link partner. The value of this bit establishes the state of the Toggle bit in the Next Page Link
Control Word. This bit toggles with each transmitted Link Control Word.
If the previous Next Page Link Control Word Toggle bit has a value of logic:
• Zero, then the Toggle bit is set to logic one.
• One, then the Toggle bit is set to logic zero.
The initial Next Page Link Control Word Toggle bit is set to the inverse of the base Link Control Word bit 11.
8.9.6
Message Code Field / Unformatted Code Field (bits 7.10:0)
Bits 7.10:0 represent either the Message Code field M[10:0] or the Unformatted Code field U[10:0] bits. The

8.11.1
Chapter 8
Management Register Set
Command Override Write Enable (bit 16.15)
The Command Override Write Enable bit provides an STA the ability to alter the Command Override Write
(CW) bits located throughout the MII Register set. A two-step process is required to alter the value of a CW
bit:
1. Step one is to issue a Command Override Write, (that is, set bit 16.15 to logic one). This step enables
the next MDIO write to have the ability to alter any CW bit.
2. Step two is to write to the register that includes the CW bit which requires modification.
Note:
8.11.2
The Command Override Write Enable bit is a Self-Clearing bit that is automatically reset to logic
zero after the next MII write, thereby allowing only one subsequent write to alter the CW bits in a
single register. To alter additional CW bits, the Command Override Write Enable bit must once
again be set to logic one.
ICS Reserved (bits 16.14:11)
ICS is reserving these bits for future use. Functionally, these bits are equivalent to IEEE Reserved bits.
When one of these reserved bits is:
• Read by an STA, the ICS1893 returns a logic zero.
• Written to by an STA, the STA must use the default value specified in this data sheet.
ICS uses some reserved bits to invoke auxiliary functions. To ensure proper operation of the ICS1893, an
STA must maintain the default value of these bits. Therefore, ICS recommends that an STA always write
the default value of any reserved bits during all management register write operations.
8.11.3
PHY Address (bits 16.10:6)
These five bits hold the Serial Management Port Address of the ICS1893. During either a hardware reset
or a power-on reset, the PHY address is read from the LED interface. (For information on the LED
interface, see Section 6.8, “Status Interface”and Section 9.3.2, “Multi-Function (Multiplexed) Pins: PHY
Address and LED Pins”). The PHY address is then latched into this register. (The value of each of the PHY
Address bits is unaffected by a software reset.)
8.11.4
Stream Cipher Scrambler Test Mode (bit 16.5)
The Stream Cipher Scrambler Test Mode bit is used to force the ICS1893 to lose LOCK, thereby requiring
the Stream Cipher Scrambler to resynchronize.
8.11.5
ICS Reserved (bit 16.4)
See Section 8.11.2, “ICS Reserved (bits 16.14:11)”, the text for which also applies here.
8.11.6
NRZ/NRZI Encoding (bit 16.3)
This bit allows an STA to control whether NRZ (Not Return to Zero) or NRZI (Not Return to Zero, Invert on
One) encoding is applied to the serial transmit data stream in 100Base-TX mode. When this bit is logic:
• Zero, the ICS1893 encodes the serial transmit data stream using NRZ encoding.
• One, the ICS1893 encodes the serial transmit data stream using NRZI encoding.

Invalid Error Code Test (bit 16.2)
The Invalid Error Code Test bit allows an STA to force the ICS1893 to transmit symbols that are typically
classified as invalid. The purpose of this test bit is to permit thorough testing of the 4B/5B encoding and the
serial transmit data stream by allowing generation of bit patterns that are considered invalid by the ISO/IEC
4B/5B definition.
When this bit is logic:
• Zero, the ISO/IEC defined 4B/5B translation takes place.
• One – and the TXER signal is asserted by the MAC/repeater – the MII input nibbles are translated
according to Table 8-17.

The Stream Cipher Disable bit allows an STA to control whether the ICS1893 employs the Stream Cipher
Scrambler in the transmit and receive data paths. When this bit is set to logic:
• Zero, the Stream Cipher Encoder and Decoder are both enabled for normal operations.
• One, the Stream Cipher Encoder and Decoder are disabled. This action results in an unscrambled data
stream (for example, the ICS1893 transmits unscrambled IDLES, and so forth.
Note:
The Stream Cipher Scrambler can be used only for 100-MHz operations.

to pre-defined default values.
Note:
1. For an explanation of acronyms used in Table 8-18, see Chapter 1, “Abbreviations and Acronyms”.
2. Most of this register’s bits are latching high or latching low, which allows the ICS1893 to capture and
save the occurrence of an event for an STA to read. (For more information on latching high and
latching low bits, see Section 8.1.4.1, “Latching High Bits”and Section 8.1.4.2, “Latching Low Bits”.)
3. Although some of these status bits are redundant with other management registers, the ICS1893
provides this group of bits to minimize the number of Serial Management Cycles required to collect the
status data.

Auto-Negotiation Progress Monitor (bits 17.13:11)
The Auto-Negotiation Progress Monitor consists of the Auto-Negotiation Complete bit (bit 17.4) and the
three Auto-Negotiation Monitor bits (bits 17.13:11). The Auto-Negotiation Progress Monitor continually
examines the state of the Auto-Negotiation Process State Machine and reports the status of
Auto-Negotiation using the three Auto-Negotiation Monitor bits. Therefore, the value of these three bits
provides the status of the Auto-Negotiation Process.
These three bits are initialized to logic zero in one of the following ways:
• A reset (see Section 5.1, “Reset Operations”)
• Disabling Auto-Negotiation [see Section 8.2.4, “Auto-Negotiation Enable (bit 0.12)”]
• Restarting Auto-Negotiation [see Section 8.2.7, “Restart Auto-Negotiation (bit 0.9)”]
If Auto-Negotiation is enabled, these bits continually latch the highest state that the Auto-Negotiation State
Machine achieves. That is, they are updated only if the binary value of the next state is greater than the
binary value of the present state as outlined in Table 8-19.
Note:
An MDIO read of these bits provides a history of the greatest progress achieved by the
auto-negotiation process. In addition, the MDIO read latches the present state of the
Auto-Negotiation State Machine for a subsequent read.

100Base PLL Lock Error (bit 17.9)
The Phase-Locked Loop (PLL) Lock Error bit indicates to an STA whether the ICS1893 has ever
experienced a PLL Lock Error. A PLL Lock Error occurs when the PLL fails to lock onto the incoming
100Base data stream. If this bit is set to a logic:
• Zero, it indicates that a PLL Lock Error has not occurred since either the last read or reset of this register.
• One, it indicates that a PLL Lock Error has occurred since either the last read or reset of this register.
This bit is a latching high bit. (For more information on latching high and latching low bits, see Section
8.1.4.1, “Latching High Bits”and Section 8.1.4.2, “Latching Low Bits”.)
Note:
8.12.6
This bit has no definition in 10Base-T mode.
False Carrier (bit 17.8)
The False Carrier bit indicates to an STA the detection of a False Carrier by the ICS1893 in 100Base mode.
A False Carrier occurs when the ICS1893 begins evaluating potential data on the incoming 100Base data
stream, only to learn that it was not a valid /J/K/. If this bit is set to a logic:
• Zero, it indicates a False Carrier has not been detected since either the last read or reset of this register.
• One, it indicates a False Carrier was detected since either the last read or reset of this register.
This bit is a latching high bit. (For more information on latching high and latching low bits, see Section
8.1.4.1, “Latching High Bits”and Section 8.1.4.2, “Latching Low Bits”.)
Note:
8.12.7
This bit has no definition in 10Base-T mode.
Invalid Symbol (bit 17.7)
The Invalid Symbol bit indicates to an STA the detection of an Invalid Symbol in a 100Base data stream by
the ICS1893.
When the ICS1893 is receiving a packet, it examines each received Symbol to ensure the data is error free.
If an error occurs, the port indicates this condition to the MAC/repeater by asserting the RXER signal. In
addition, the ICS1893 sets its Invalid Symbol bit to logic one. Therefore, if this bit is set to a logic:
• Zero, it indicates an Invalid Symbol has not been detected since either the last read or reset of this
register.
• One, it indicates an Invalid Symbol was detected since either the last read or reset of this register.
This bit is a latching high bit. (For more information on latching high and latching low bits, see Section
8.1.4.1, “Latching High Bits”and Section 8.1.4.2, “Latching Low Bits”.)

Halt Symbol (bit 17.6)
The Halt Symbol bit indicates to an STA the detection of a Halt Symbol in a 100Base data stream by the
ICS1893.
During reception of a valid packet, the ICS1893 examines each symbol to ensure that the data being
passed to the MAC/Repeater Interface is error free. In addition, it looks for special symbols such as the Halt
Symbol. If a Halt Symbol is encountered, the ICS1893 indicates this condition to the MAC/repeater.
If this bit is set to a logic:
• Zero, it indicates a Halt Symbol has not been detected since either the last read or reset of this register.
• One, it indicates a Halt Symbol was detected in the packet since either the last read or reset of this
register.
This bit is a latching high bit. (For more information on latching high and latching low bits, see Section

Note:
8.12.9
This bit has no definition in 10Base-T mode.
Premature End (bit 17.5)
The Premature End bit indicates to an STA the detection of two consecutive Idles in a 100Base data
stream by the ICS1893.
During reception of a valid packet, the ICS1893 examines each symbol to ensure that the data being
passed to the MAC/Repeater Interface is error free. If two consecutive Idles are encountered, it indicates
this condition to the MAC/repeater by setting this bit.
If this bit is set to a logic:
• Zero, it indicates a Premature End condition has not been detected since either the last read or reset of
this register.
• One, it indicates a Premature End condition was detected in the packet since either the last read or reset
of this register.
This bit is a latching high bit. (For more information on latching high and latching low bits, see Section
8.1.4.1, “Latching High Bits”and Section 8.1.4.2, “Latching Low Bits”.)
Note:

This bit has no definition in 10Base-T mode.
Auto-Negotiation Complete (bit 17.4)
The Auto-Negotiation Complete bit is used to indicate to an STA the completion of the Auto-Negotiation
process. When this bit is set to logic:
• Zero, it indicates that the auto-negotiation process is either not complete or is disabled by the Control
Register’s Auto-Negotiation Enable bit (bit 0.12)
• One, it indicates that the ICS1893 has completed the auto-negotiation process and that the contents of
Management Registers 4, 5, and 6 are valid.
8.12.11
100Base-TX Signal Detect (bit 17.3)
The 100Base-TX Signal Detect bit indicates either the presence or absence of a signal on the Twisted-Pair
Receive pins (TP_RXP and TP_RXN) in 100Base-TX mode. This bit is logic:
• Zero when no signal is detected on the Twisted-Pair Receive pins.
• One when a signal is present on the Twisted-Pair Receive pins.

Remote Jabber Detect (bit 18.15)
The Remote Jabber Detect bit is provided to indicate that an ICS1893 port has detected a Jabber Condition
on its receive path. This bit is reset to logic zero on a read of the 10Base-T operations register. When this
bit is logic:
• Zero, it indicates a Jabber Condition has not occurred on the port’s receive path since either the last read
of this register or the last reset of the associated port.
• One, it indicates a Jabber Condition has occurred on the port’s receive path since either the last read of
this register or the last reset of the associated port.
This bit is a latching high bit. (For more information on latching high and latching low bits, see Section
8.1.4.1, “Latching High Bits”and Section 8.1.4.2, “Latching Low Bits”.)
Note:
This bit is provided for information purposes only (that is, no actions are taken by the port). The
ISO/IEC specification defines the Jabber Condition in terms of a port’s transmit path. To set this bit,
an ICS1893 port monitors its receive path and applies the ISO/IEC Jabber criteria to its receive
path.

Polarity Reversed (bit 18.14)
The Polarity Reversed bit is used to inform an STA whether the ICS1893 has detected that the signals on
the Twisted-Pair Receive Pins (TP_RXP and TP_RXN) are reversed. When the signal polarity is:
• Correct, the ICS1893 sets bit 18.14 to a logic zero.
• Reversed, the ICS1893 sets bit 18.14 to logic one.
Note:
8.13.3
The ICS1893 can detect this situation and perform all its operations normally, independent of the
reversal.

See Section 8.11.2, “ICS Reserved (bits 16.14:11)”, the text for which also applies here.
8.13.4
Jabber Inhibit (bit 18.5)
The Jabber Inhibit bit allows an STA to disable Jabber Detection. When an STA sets this bit to:
• Zero, the ICS1893 enables 10Base-T Jabber checking.
• One, the ICS1893 disables its check for a Jabber condition during data transmission.
8.13.5

See Section 8.11.2, “ICS Reserved (bits 16.14:11)”, the text for which also applies here.
8.13.6
Auto Polarity Inhibit (bit 18.3)
The Auto Polarity Inhibit bit allows an STA to prevent the automatic correction of a polarity reversal on the
Twisted-Pair Receive pins (TP_RXP and TP_RXN). If an STA sets this bit to logic:
• Zero (the default), the ICS1893 automatically corrects a polarity reversal on the Twisted-Pair Receive
pins.
• One, the ICS1893 either disables or inhibits the automatic correction of reversed Twisted-Pair Receive
pins.
Note:
8.13.7
This bit is also used to correct a reversed signal polarity for 100Base-TX operations.
SQE Test Inhibit (bit 18.2)
The SQE Test Inhibit bit allows an STA to prevent the generation of the Signal Quality Error pulse. When
an STA sets this bit to logic:
• Zero, the ICS1893 enables its SQE Test generation.
• One, the ICS1893 disables its SQE Test generation.
The SQE Test provides the ability to verify that the Collision Logic is active and functional. A 10Base-T
SQE test is performed by pulsing the Collision signal for a short time after each packet transmission
completes, that is, after TXEN goes inactive.
Note:
1. The SQE Test is automatically inhibited in full-duplex and repeater modes, thereby disabling the
functionality of this bit.
2. This bit is a control bit and not a status bit. Therefore, it is not updated to indicate this automatic
inhibiting of the SQE test in full-duplex mode or repeater mode.

• One, the ICS1893 10Base-T Link Integrity Test state machine is forced into the ‘Link Passed’state
regardless of the Twisted-Pair Receiver input conditions.

Squelch Inhibit (bit 18.0)
The Squelch Inhibit bit allows an STA to control the ICS1893 Squelch Detection in 10Base-T mode. When

• Zero, before the ICS1893 can establish a valid link, the ICS1893 must receive valid 10Base-T data.
• One, before the ICS1893 can establish a valid link, the ICS1893 must receive both valid 10Base-T data
followed by an IDL.

Node/Repeater Configuration (bit 19.15)
The Node/Repeater Configuration bit directly indicates the state of the NOD/REP input pin. When this bit is
logic:
• Zero, the NOD/REP input pin is pulled down, which instructs the operation code to operate in Node
mode.
• One, the NOD/REP input pin is pulled up, which instructs the ICS1893 to operate in Repeater mode.
There are two primary differences between Node mode and Repeater mode.
• In Node mode:
– The SQE Test default setting is enabled.
– The Carrier Sense signal (CRS) is asserted in response to either transmit or receive activity.
• In Repeater mode:
– The SQE Test default setting is disabled.
– The Carrier Sense signal (CRS) is asserted in response only to receive activity.
8.14.2
Hardware/Software Priority Status (bit 19.14)
The Hardware/Software Priority Status bit directly indicates the state of the HW/SW pin. When this bit is

this bit is set to logic:
• Zero, the 100Base-TX Transceiver does not power down automatically in 100Base-TX mode.
• One, and the ICS1893 is operating in 10Base-T mode, the 100Base-TX Transceiver automatically turns
off to reduce the overall power consumption of the ICS1893.
Note:
There are other means of powering down the 100Base-TX Transceiver (for example, when the
entire device is isolated using bit 0:10).

Input
Twisted-Pair Receive (Data) Positive.
Data reception of differential analog signals occurs over the TP_RXN
and TP_RXP pair of differential-signal pins. Together these pins
receive the serial bit stream from the UTP cable through an isolation
transformer.
Depending on the operating mode of the remote link partner, the
received data is one of the following types of signals:
• Two-level 10Base-T (that is, Manchester-encoded) signals
• Three-level 100Base-TX, (that is, MLT-3 encoded) signals
The TP_RXN and TP_RXP pins interface directly to an isolation
transformer, which in turn, interfaces with the UTP cable.

Multi-Function (Multiplexed) Pins: PHY Address and LED Pins
Table 9-3 lists the pins for the multi-function group of pins (that is, the multiplexed PHY Address / LED
pins).
Note:
1. During either a power-on reset or a hardware reset, each multi-function configuration pin is an input
that is sampled when the ICS1893 exits the reset state. After sampling is complete, these pins are
output pins that can drive status LEDs.
2. A software reset does not affect the state of a multi-function configuration pin. During a software reset,
all multi-function configuration pins are outputs.
3. Each multi-function configuration pin must be pulled either up or down with a resistor to establish the
address of the ICS1893. LEDs placed in series with these resistors provide a designated status
indicator.
Caution:
All pins listed in Table 9-3 must not float.
4. As outputs, the asserted state of a multi-function configuration pin is the inverse of the sense sampled
during reset. This inversion provides a signal that can illuminate an LED during an asserted state. For
example, if a multi-function configuration pin is pulled down to ground through an LED and a
current-limiting resistor, then the sampled sense of the input is low. To illuminate an LED for the
asserted state requires the output to be high.
Note:
Each of these pins monitor the data link by providing signals that directly drive LEDs.

COL
49
Output
Collision (Detect).
The ICS1893 asserts a signal on the COL pin when the ICS1893 detects
receive activity while transmitting (that is, while the TXEN signal is
asserted by the MAC/repeater, that is, when transmitting). When the
mode is:
• 10Base-T, the ICS1893 detects receive activity by monitoring the
un-squelched MDI receive signal.
• 100Base-TX, the ICS1893 detects receive activity when there are two
non-contiguous zeros in any 10-bit symbol derived from the MDI
receive data stream.
Note:
1. The signal on the COL pin is not synchronous to either RXCLK or
TXCLK.
2. In full-duplex mode, the COL signal is disabled and always remains
low.
3. The COL signal is asserted as part of the signal quality error (SQE)
test. This assertion can be suppressed with the SQE Test Inhibit bit
(bit 18.2).
CRS
50
Output
Carrier Sense.
When the ICS1893 mode is:
• Half-duplex, the ICS1893 asserts a signal on its CRS pin when it
detects either receive or transmit activity.
• Either full-duplex or Repeater mode, the ICS1893 asserts a signal on
its CRS pin only in response to receive activity.
Note: The signal on the CRS pin is not synchronous to the signal on
either the RXCLK or TXCLK pin.
MDC

Management Data Input/Output.
The signal on this pin can be tri-stated and can be driven by one of the
following:
• A Station Management Entity (STA), to transfer command and data
information to the registers of the ICS1893.
• The ICS1893, to transfer status information.
All transfers and sampling are synchronous with the signal on the MDC
pin.
Note: If the ICS1893 is to be used in an application that uses the
mechanical MII specification, MDIO must have a 1.5 kΩ ±5%
pull-up resistor at the ICS1893 end and a 2 kΩ ±5% pull-down
resistor at the station management end. (These resistors enable
the station management to determine if the connection is intact.)
RXCLK
38
Output
Receive Clock.
The ICS1893 sources the RXCLK to the MAC/repeater interface. The
ICS1893 uses RXCLK to synchronize the signals on the following pins:
RXD[3:0], RXDV, and RXER. The following table contrasts the behavior
on the RXCLK pin when the mode for the ICS1893 is either 10Base-T or
100Base-TX.
10Base-T
100Base-TX
The RXCLK frequency is 2.5
MHz.
The RXCLK frequency is 25 MHz.
The ICS1893 generates its
RXCLK from the MDI data stream
using a digital PLL. When the MDI
data stream terminates, the PLL
continues to operate,
synchronously referenced to the
last packet received.
The ICS1893 generates its
RXCLK from the MDI data stream
while there is a valid link (that is,
either data or IDLEs). In the
absence of a link, the ICS1893
uses the REF_IN clock to
generate the RXCLK.
The ICS1893 switches between
clock sources during the period
between when its CRS is
asserted and prior to its RXDV
being asserted. While the
ICS1893 is locking onto the
incoming data stream, a clock
phase change of up to 360
degrees can occur.
While the ICS1893 is bringing up
a link, a clock phase change of up
to 360 degrees can occur.
The RXCLK aligns once per
packet.
The RXCLK aligns once, when
the link is being established.
Note: The signal on the RXCLK pin is conditioned by the RXTRI pin.

• Asserts RXDV after it detects and recovers the Start-of-Stream
delimiter, /J/K/. (For the timing reference, see Chapter 10.5.6, “MII /
100M Stream Interface: Synchronous Receive Timing”.)

• 100M MII mode, the ICS1893 asserts a signal on the RXER pin when
either of the following two conditions are true:
– Errors are detected during the reception of valid frames
– A False Carrier is detected
Note:
1. An ICS1893 asserts a signal on the RXER pin upon detection of a
False Carrier so that repeater applications can prevent the
propagation of a False Carrier.
2. The RXER signal always transitions synchronously with RXCLK.
3. The signal on RXER pin is conditioned by the RXTRI pin.

When the MAC/Repeater Interface is in:
• 10M MII mode, TXER is not used.
• 100M MII mode:
– The ICS1893 synchronously samples its TXER signal on the rising
edges of its TXCLK signal.
– The assertion of TXER by the MAC/repeater causes the ICS1893 to
transmit an Invalid Symbol.
– the Invalid Error Code Test bit (bit 16.2) is set to logic one, the 5-bit
symbol shown in the Invalid Error Code Translation Table (Table
8-17) is used instead of the normal 4B/5B encoding described in the
ISO/IEC specification.
Note: The Invalid Symbol used for this function is the HALT symbol,
which is substituted for the transmit nibble received from the
MAC/repeater whenever the TXER is asserted.

Pin Description
(Symbol) Receive Clock.
In Symbol Mode, the ICS1893 sources an SRCLK to a
MAC/repeater. The SRCLK synchronizes the signals on the
SRD[4:0] pins between the ICS1893 and the MAC/repeater.
The following table contrasts the SRCLK behavior when the
mode for the ICS1893 is either 10Base-T or 100Base-TX.
10Base-T
100Base-TX
The SRCLK frequency is
2.5 MHz.
The SRCLK frequency is
25 MHz.
The ICS1893 generates its
SRCLK from the MDI data
stream using a digital PLL.
When the MDI data stream
terminates the PLL
continues to operate,
synchronously referenced
to the last packet received.
The ICS1893 generates its
SRCLK from the MDI data
stream while there is a
valid link (that is, either
data or IDLEs). In the
absence of a link, the
ICS1893 uses the REF_IN
clock to generate the
SRCLK.
The ICS1893 switches
between clock sources
during the period between
when its SCRS is asserted
and prior to its RXDV being
asserted. While the
ICS1893 is locking onto
the incoming data stream,
a clock phase change of
up to 360 degrees can
occur.
While the ICS1893 is
bringing up a link, a clock
phase change of up to 360
degrees can occur.
The RXCLK aligns once
per packet.
The RXCLK aligns once,
when the link is being
established.
Note: The signal on the SRCLK pin is conditioned by the
RXTRI pin.

• The ICS1893 continually transfers the data it receives from
its MDI to its SRD[4:0] pins (that is, to its MAC/Repeater
Interface). In the 100M Symbol mode, data is not framed.
Therefore, the ICS1893 does not assert its RXDV signal.
• The ICS1893 transfers its receive data to the SRD[4:0] pins
synchronously on the rising edges of its SRCLK signal.
Note: The signal on the ICS1893’s SRD[3:0] pins are

Receive (Interface), Tri-State.
This pin’s input is from a MAC. When this pin’s signal is logic:
• Low, the MAC indicates it is not in a tri-state condition.
• High, the MAC indicates it is in a tri-state condition. In this
case, the ICS1893 acts to ensure that only one PHY is active
at a time. (A PHY address of 00 also tri-states the MII
interface.)

received from the MAC/Repeater interface.
• The signals on the ICS1893 STD[4:0] pins are continually
and synchronously sampled on the rising edges of its
STCLK. These signals are independent of the TXEN signal.
Note: In 100M Symbol mode, TXEN is not used because the
