The Broadcom
®
BCM5226
is a single-chip device containing six
independent Fast Ethernet transceivers. Each performs all the
physical layer interface functions for 100BASE-TX full-duplex
or half-duplex Ethernet on Category 5 twisted-pair cable and
10BASE-T full or half-duplex Ethernet on Category 3, 4 or 5
cable. Each port may also be configured for 100BASE-FX full or
half-duplex transmission over fiber-optic cabling when paired
with an external fiber-optic line transceiver.
The
BCM5226
chip performs 4B5B, MLT3, NRZI, and
Manchester encoding and decoding, clock and data recovery,
stream cipher scrambling/descrambling, digital adaptive
equalization, line transmission, carrier sense and link integrity
monitoring, auto-negotiation and RMII management functions.
The
BCM5226
can be connected to a switch controller through
the RMII on one side and connects directly to the network media
on the other side through isolation transformers for UTP modes
or fiber-optic transceiver components for FX mode. The
BCM5226
is compliant with the IEEE 802.3 standard.
The
BCM5226
operates from a 2.5V power supply, which
dramatically lowers total power consumption compared to 3.3V
and 5V designs. The
BCM5226
I/O operates at either 2.5V or
3.3V, for compatibility with 3.3V designs.
The
BCM5226
is the first 10/100 Ethernet transceiver to
incorporate the Hewlett-Packard auto-Media Dependent
Interface Crossover (Auto-MDIX) feature. Originally specified
in the IEEE 802.3ab Gigabit Ethernet standard for Category 5
cable, the Auto-MDIX feature enables the transceiver to
automatically detect and correct a crossed cable. This allows
system installation and maintenance personnel to use crossover
or straight-through cables interchangeably, regardless of whether
the cable is attached to another switch, network interface card or
repeater. This capability eliminates incorrect connections due to
cable mismatch, making it easier and less expensive to install and
operate 10/100 Ethernet switches.
The
BCM5226R
supports RMII, and is available in a 160-pin
plastic quad flatpack package (PQFP); the
BCM5226R
supports
SMII, and is available in a 128-pin PQFP.
