Pin

Type

Name and Function

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

RESET

1

I

Reset. The Reset signal is active high and resets the 82555. A reset pulse

 

 

 

width of at least 1 μs should be used.

 

 

 

 

FRC100

51

I

This pin is multiplexed and can be used for one of the following:

(MACTYP)

 

 

Force 100/10 Mbps. In repeater mode, this pin configures the repeater to

 

 

 

either 100 Mbps (active high) or to 10 Mbps (active low).

 

 

 

MAC Type. In DTE (adapter) full duplex mode, if this input signal is high, the

 

 

 

82555 drives 82557 mode. If this input signal is low, the 82555 drives a

 

 

 

generic MII MAC mode.

 

 

 

 

PHYA4

22

I

This pin is multiplexed and can be used for one of the following:

(TIN)

 

 

PHY Address 4. In repeater mode, this signal represents the fifth bit for

 

 

 

address port configuration.

 

 

 

TIN. If the Test Enable signal is active, this signal is used as the Test Input

 

 

 

data.

 

 

 

 

PHYA3

52

I/O

This pin is multiplexed and can be used for one of the following:

(SLVTRI)

 

 

PHY Address 3. In repeater mode, this signal represents the fourth bit for

 

 

 

address port configuration.

 

 

 

Slave Tri-state.In DTE (adapter) mode, this output operates in conjunction

 

 

 

with the T4 Advanced signal. When both are active, the slave PHY is inactive

 

 

 

and tri-states all its outputs.

 

 

 

 

PHYA2

6

I

This pin is multiplexed and can be used for one of the following:

(LISTAT)

 

 

PHY Address 2. In repeater mode, this signal represents the third bit for

 

 

 

address port configuration.

 

 

 

Link Status. In DTE (adapter) mode, if T4 Advance is active, the LISTAT_N

 

 

 

signal is active low and the slave PHY link is valid.

 

 

 

 

PHYA1

25

I

This pin is multiplexed and can be used for one of the following:

(TEXEC)

 

 

PHY Address 1. In repeater mode, this signal represents the second bit for

 

 

 

address port configuration.

 

 

 

Test Execute. If Test Enable is asserted, this signal acts as the test

 

 

 

execution command indicating that the pin 22 is being used as the Test Input

 

 

 

pin.

 

 

 

 

PHYA0

24

I

This pin is multiplexed and can be used for one of the following:

(TCK)

 

 

PHY Address 0. In repeater mode, this signal represents the first bit for

 

 

 

address port configuration.

 

 

 

Test Clock. If Test Enable is asserted, this signal acts as the Test Clock

 

 

 

signal.

 

 

 

 

ANDIS

54

I

This pin is multiplexed and can be used for one of the following:

(T4ADV)

 

 

Auto-Negotiation Disable. In repeater mode, the Auto-Negotiation operates

 

 

 

for management reasons. If this input signal is high, the Auto-Negotiation

 

 

 

operation will be disabled.

 

 

 

T4ADV. In DTE (adapter) mode, this pin enables the combo mode. This

 

 

 

allows the LISTAT and SLVTRI pins to be used as interface to the slave PHY.

 

 

 

 

SCRMBY

23

I

Scrambler/Descrambler Bypass. If SCRMBY is high, the scrambler/

 

 

 

descrambler of TP-PMD will be bypassed.

 

 

 

 

LPBK

2

I

Loopback. When the LPBK signal is high, the 82555 will perform a

 

 

 

diagnostic loopback function.

 

 

 

 

RPT

50

I

Repeater. When the RPT signal is high, the 82555 functions in repeater

 

 

 

mode. When this signal is low, the 82555 runs in DTE (adapter) mode.

 

 

 

 

TESTEN

21

I

Test. If the TESTEN signal is high, the 82555 enables the test ports.
