is deasserted when the RESET pin is issued or the CRC reset bit is set to 1 (SIR0); when the TXS bit is set to 1 (TIR8) or the RXS bit is set to 1 (TIR16); when TXRES bit set to 1 (TIR8), or the RXRES bit is set to 1 (TIR16), or the SRES bit is set to 1 (TIR0).

HFCLK

High Frequency Clock

Output

HFCLK provides a reference clock for a transceiver syn- thesizer. The clock rate is equal to the clock rate of the CLKIN signal when the CLKGT20 bit of MIR9 is set to 0, and is equal to one-half the clock rate of the CLKIN sig- nal when the CLKGT20 bit of MIR9 is set to 1. No phase relationship to CLKIN is guaranteed. HFCLK will be LOW whenever the HFPE signal is inactive.

HFPE

High Frequency Power Enable

Output

HFPE is an active low output that is used to power up the high-frequency VCO section of the transceiver. This pin is directly controllable through a TAI register and is also programmable as an I/O with read capability.

LFCLK

Low Frequency Clock

Output

LFCLK provides a reference clock for a transceiver syn- thesizer. The clock rate is equal to the clock rate of the CLKIN signal when the CLKGT20 bit of MIR9 is set to 0, and is equal to one half the clock rate of the CLKIN sig- nal when the CLKGT20 bit of MIR9 is set to 1. No phase relationship to CLKIN is guaranteed. LFCLK will be LOW whenever the LFPE signal is inactive.

LFPE

Low Frequency Power Enable

Output

LFPE is an active low output that is used to power up the low-frequency synthesizer section of the transceiver. This pin is directly controllable through a TAI register and is also programmable as an I/O with read capability.

LLOCKE

Synthesizer Lock

Input

LLOCKE is a general-purpose input that can be used to convey a transceiver's synthesizer lock signal to the 80188 embedded controller. The value of the LLOCKE pin is readable at a register bit in the TIR register space.

RXDATA

Receive Data

Input

RXDATA is an input that accepts the serial bit stream for reception, including Preamble, SFD, PHY header, MAC header, Data and FCS field. The RXDATA input stream is expected to be NRZ data. Clock recovery is per- formed internal to the Am79C930 device. If an external

PLL is used for clock recovery, then the RXDATA input will expect valid data at rising edges of the RXCIN input. External versus internal PLL use is determined through the setting of the ECLK bit in TCR2.

RXPE

Receiver Power Enable

Output

RXPE is an active low output that is used to power up the receive section of the transceiver. This pin is directly controllable through a TAI register and is also program- mable as an I/O with read capability.

TXCMD

Transmit Command

Output

TXCMD is an active low output that is used to enable the transceiver's transmission onto the medium. When TXCMD is low, the transceiver should enable its trans- mission function and disable its receive function. When TXCMD is high, the transceiver should disable its transmission function and return to receive functionality. This pin is directly controlled by the transmit state machine in the TAI and the TXCMD bit of TIR11. The timing of the TXCMD signal is programmable from a TAI register. The polarity of this pin is programmable from a TAI register.

TXCMD

Transmit Command

Output

TXCMD is an active high output that is the logical in- verse of the TXCMD output. This signal is only available when the Am79C930 device is configured for the PCMCIA mode of operation.

TXDATA

Transmit Data

Output

TXDATA is an output that provides the serial bit stream for transmission, including preamble, SFD, PHY header, MAC header, data and FCS field, or a subset thereof. Data delivered from the MAC to the transceiver is valid at the rising edge of TXC and changes on the fall- ing edge of TXC. The value of the TXDATA pin is pro- grammable to 1, 0, or “last bit transmitted” whenever the transmit circuit is idle and during ramp up and ramp down of the transceiver's transmit circuits.

TXDATA

Transmit Data

Output

TXDATA is an output that is the logical inverse of the TXDATA output. This signal is only available when the Am79C930 device is configured for the PCMCIA mode of operation. The value of the TXDATA pin is 0 when- ever the transmit circuit is idle and during ramp up and ramp down of the transmitter.
