GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The PCnet-ISA
+
controller, a single-chip Ethernet con-
troller, is a highly integrated system solution for the
PC-AT Industry Standard Architecture (ISA ) architec-
ture. It is designed to provide flexibility and compatibility
with any existing PC application. This highly integrated
132-pin VLSI device is specifically designed to reduce
parts count and cost, and addresses applications where
higher system throughput is desired. The PCnet-ISA

controller is fabricated with AMD’s advanced low-power
CMOS process to provide low standby current for power
sensitive applications.
The PCnet-ISA
+
controller is a DMA-based device with a
dual architecture that can be configured in two different
operating modes to suit a particular PC application. In
the Bus Master Mode all transfers are performed using

External remote boot and Ethernet physical address
PROMs and Electrically Erasable Proms are also
supported.
This advanced Ethernet controller has the built-in capa-
bility of automatically selecting either the AUI port or the
Twisted Pair transceiver. Only one interface is active at
any one time. The individual 136-byte transmit and
128-byte receive FIFOs optimize system overhead, pro-
viding sufficient latency during packet transmission and
reception, and minimizing intervention during normal
network error recovery. The integrated Manchester en-
coder/decoder eliminates the need for an external Serial
Interface Adapter (SIA) in the node system. If support
for an external encoding/decoding scheme is desired,
the embedded General Purpose Serial Interface (GPSI)
allows direct access to/from the MAC. In addition, the
device provides programmable on-chip LED drivers for
transmit, receive, collision, receive polarity, link integrity
and activity, or jabber status. The PCnet-ISA
+
controller
also provides an External Address Detection Interface™
(EADI™) to allow external hardware address filtering in
internetworking applications.
the integrated DMA controller. This configuration en-
hances system performance by allowing the
PCnet-ISA
+
controller to bypass the platform DMA con-
troller and directly address the full 24-bit memory space.
The implementation of Bus Master Mode allows mini-
mum parts count for the majority of PC applications. The
PCnet-ISA
+
controller can be configured to perform
Shared Memory operations for compatibility with low-
end machines, such as PC/XTs that do not support Bus
Master and high-end machines that require local packet
buffering for increased system latency.
The PCnet-ISA
+
controller is designed to directly inter-
face with the ISA or EISA system bus. It contains an ISA
Plug and Play bus interface unit, DMA Buffer Manage-
ment Unit, 802.3 Media Access Control function,
individual 136-byte transmit and 128-byte receive
FIFOs, IEEE 802.3 defined Attachment Unit Interface
(AUI), and a Twisted Pair Transceiver Media Attach-
ment Unit. The PCnet-ISA
+
controller is also register
compatible with the LANCE (Am7990) Ethernet control-
ler and PCnet-ISA. The DMA Buffer Management Unit
supports the LANCE descriptor software model.
