Pin Definitions
MII Interface Pin Descriptions
Transmit Clock TXCLK
The Transmit Clock (TXCLK) is a continuous clock signal
generated by the
ICS1889
to synchronize the Transmit
Enable, Transmit Data and Transmit Error lines. The
ICS1889
clock frequency is 25% of the nominal transmit data
rate. At 100 Mbps its frequency is 25 MHz. The TXCLK
clock duty cycle is in the range 35% to 65%.
Transmit Enable TXEN
Transmit Enable (TXEN) indicates to the
ICS1889
that the
MAC is sending valid data nibbles for transmission on the
physical media. Synchronous with its assertion the
ICS1889
will begin reading the data nibbles on the transmit data lines.
It is the responsibility of the MAC to order the nibbles so that
the preamble is sent first, followed by destination, source,
length, data and CFS fields since the
ICS1889
has no
knowledge of the frame structure and is merely a nibble
processor. The
ICS1889
terminates transmission of nibbles
following the deassertion of Transmit Enable (TXEN).
Transmit Data 3 TXD3
Transmit Data 3 (TXD3) is the most significant bit of the
transmit data nibble. TXD3 is sampled by the
ICS1889
synchronously with the Transmit Data Clock when TXEN is
asserted. When TXEN is de-asserted the
ICS1889
is
unaffected by the state of TXD3
Transmit Data 2 TXD2
Transmit Data 2 (TXD2) is sampled by the
ICS1889
synchronously with the Transmit Data Clock when TXEN is
asserted. When TXEN is de-asserted the
ICS1889
is
unaffected by the state of TXD2.
Transmit Data 1 TXD1
Transmit Data 1 (TXD1) is sampled by the
ICS1889
synchronously with the Transmit Data Clock when TXEN is
asserted. When TXEN is de-asserted the
ICS1889
is
unaffected by the state of TXD1.
