6. FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The functional blocks of the device are shown in Fig.1
These are described below:
6.1 Transmit Section
6.1.1 Transmit 125 MHz Phase Lock Loop (PLL)
This circuit consist of a VCO with 125MHz central fre-
quency and built-in loop filter. The 125 Mhz is divided by
5 to generate a 25 Mhz output clock which is phase com-
pared with a 25 MHz crystal reference clock which is an
input through pin CLKIN. This 25 MHz clock is then sent
to the PCS layer to pace in the 5 bit nibble data. Due to
built-in filter, no extra filter components are needed which
simply the system design.
6.1.2 Five Bit Nibble or 125 MHz Shifter
Data is input to the transmit side in 5-bit form on pins
TDAT0-4. This NRZ data is clocked in on the posotive
edge of the 25 MHz clock through TXCLK pin. The paral-
lel data is first loaded into a 5 bit wide register prior to
being loaded into a 5 bit PISO where it is converted into
a serial data stream. The last stage of the shifter is a
converter to change the data from NRZ to NRZI.
6.1.3 NRZI to MLT3 Encoder
The serial data from the shifter then passes through an
encoder which converts the NRZI binary data into the
three level MLT-3 format for transmission by the "TXO"
outputs.
6.1.4 Transmit Line Driver
Both of the 10Mb/s and 100Mb/s line driver share the
same output pins TXOP and TXON. The N10/100 pin is
used to control which driver is active and allowed to driver
the line. When N10/100 is held high the MLT-3 data is
output by the 100Mb/s driver. This driver is designed to
drive a nominal output impedance of 50Ω. Output cur-
rent is set by the value of an external resistor (Rext) from
pin "REF" to GND.
Final output current at the "TXO" output is a multiple of
this current and is defined as:
I
TXO
(mA)=23/R
EXT
(kΩ)
Transition times of the "TXO" outputs are matched and
internally limited to approx. 3.0ns to reduce EMI emis-
sions.
When N10/100 is held low, the 10Mb/s driver is selected.
This 10Mb/s driver consists of a differential analog buffer
designed to take a fully cable conditioned 10Mb/s signal
from the filter output of existing 10BaseT electronics. The
10BaseT signal is input on pins 10TIP/N. The output
current of the buffer is determined by the same external
R
EXT
as 100Mb/s driver.
The unselected driver is switched to a tristated mode for
saving power. In additional, when TXOE pin is held low,
both 10Mb/s and 100Mb/s drivers are tri-stated regard-
less of the mode selected by N10/100 pin.
When operating in single 100Mb/s applications a 1:1 turn
ratio magnetics is recommand, therefore, to attain the
desired line driving current of 40mA out of the secondary
a TXO output driver of 40mA is required. Using the above
formula it will be found that 560Ω is the nearest prefered
value to that required to give the 40mA.
6.2 Receiver Section
6.2.1 Equalizer
The equalizer circuit is necessary to compensate for sig-
nal degradation due to cable lossers, however over-equal-
ization must be avoided to present excessive overshoots
resulting in errors during the reception of MLT-3 data.
Three operating modes are therefore provided.
These three operating modes are controlled by the state
of tristate input "EQS" and are described below:
1)Auto Equalization ("EQS" floating)
Fully automatics equalization is achieved through the use
of a feedback loop driven by a control signal derived from
the signal amplitude. This provides adaptive control and
prevents over-modulation of the signal when short cable
lengths are used.
2)Full Equalization ("EQS" low)
In the mode, full equalization is applied to the input sig-
nal irrespective of amplitude.
3)No equalization ("EQS" high)
The equalization circuit is disabled completely during this
mode.
6.2.2 Baseline wander correction
Any DC offset existing on the received signals will be
corrected by this feed forward baseline tracking circuit.

MX98705
6.2.3 Signal Detector
A signal detect circuit is provided. The circuit continu-
ously monitors the amplitude of the input signal being
received on pins RXIP/N. While the input signal reaches
the specified level (>0.6V
P.P
), the equalization circuits start
to pre-process, then the SDO is asserted high after 80ms
(max.) pre-process time. Conversely if the signal level
falls below a threshold, then SDO will go low.
6.2.4 Receive PLL Clock Recovery
This block generates 125 MHz recovered clock that is
locked to the incoming data stream which is feed from
MLT-3 to NRZI converter. The PLL is first centered to the
transmit clock multiplier, once a valid input signal is
present, the PLL will lock to the incoming data stream.
6.2.5 125 MHz shifter to Parallel Data
The data stream is clocked into the serial to parallel reg-
ister using the 125 MHz clock. This data is latch prior to
being clocked out on pins RDAT0-4. A 25 MHz clock,
derived from the 125 MHz PLL clock divided by 5, is used
to clock the parallel data and is output to pin RSCLK.
6.2.6 Loopback Logic
A low level on ‘ L B E N ’ pin defines normal operation, a
high level defines loopback mode. In loopback mode,
the transmit data is internally routed to the receive cir-
cuitry, SDO is forced to be high on level and the TXOP/N
outputs are disabled.
