Quad 10/100 Mbits/s Ethernet Transceiver Macrocell
Features
Quad 10 Mbits/s Transceiver
s
s
Quad 100 Mbits/s FX Transceiver
s
Compatible with
IEEE
802.3u 100Base-FX stan-
dard.
Reuses existing twisted-pair I/O pins for compatible
fiber-optic transceiver pseudo-ECL (PECL) data.
Fiber mode automatically configures port:
— FX mode enable is pin or register selectable
— Disables autonegotiation and 10Base-T.
— Enables 100Base-FX remote fault signaling.
— Disables MLT-3 encoder/decoder.
— Disables scrambler/descrambler.

Compatible with
IEEE
* 802.3 10Base-T standard
for twisted-pair cable.
Half- and full-duplex operations.
Autopolarity detection and correction.
Adjustable squelch level for extended wire-length
capability (two levels).
Interfaces with
IEEE
802.3u media independent
interface (MII) or a serial 10 Mbits/s 7-pin interface.
On-chip filtering eliminates the need for external fil-
ters.

Description
The DNC3X3425 is a twisted-pair transceiver macrocell that supports transmission and reception over category 3
unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable and category 5 UTP
.
The DNC3X3425 has been designed specifically for applications that support both 10Base-T and 100Base-X, such
as network interface cards (NICs) and switches.
Figure 1 represents a functional block diagram of the DNC3X3425 macrocell.
Figure 2 shows the I/Os of the DNC3X3425 macrocell.
