4.0 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

4.1 Reset and Calibration

4.1.1 Reset Operation

Three different conditions cause the CS8904 to

reset its internal circuits:

Power-Up Reset: When power is applied, the

CS8904 maintains reset until the voltage at the

supply pins reaches approximately 2.5 V. The

CS8904 comes out of reset once Vcc is greater than

approximately 2.5 V and the crystal oscillator has

stabilized.

Power-Down Reset: If the supply voltage drops

below approximately 2.5 V, there is a chip-wide

reset. The CS8904 remains in a reset state until the

power supply returns to a level greater than

approximately 2.5 V and the crystal oscillator has

stabilized.

External Reset: There is a chip-wide reset

whenever the RESET pin is held low for at least

500 ns.

4.1.2 Allowing Time for Reset

After a reset, the CS8904 resets all internal

circuitry and calibrates all on-chip analog circuitry.

The time required for the reset and calibration is

typically 36 ms. During this time, the TxCLK

signal is held low. When the reset and calibration

operations are complete, the TxCLK signal

operates as normal, oscillating at a frequency of 10

MHz.

4.2 Mode Control

The CS8904 is designed to operate with a number

of industry standard Ethernet controllers and

compatible

devices.

compatible

with

controllers from Advanced Micro Devices (AMD),

Intel, Fujitsu, Seeq, National Semiconductor and

Texas Instruments.

The MODE2, MODE1, and MODE0 pins allow

five different compatibility modes to be enabled for

the CS8904. Mode selection affects the control

signal timing and polarities of the four ports of the

CS8904. Table 1 summarizes the various modes

and the MODE2, MODE1, and MODE0 pin

settings required to select them.

4.3 Controller Interface

The CS8904 provides four independent interfaces

for the digital controllers. In addition to providing

a mechanism to transfer synchronous serial data

between the CS8904 and the controller, each

interface

also

provides

control

and

status

information for the port.

4.3.1 Transmit and Receive Interface

4.3.1.1 Normal Transmission

The CS8904 receives serial data from the controller

on the TxDATA pin. This data is synchronized by

the transmit clock present on the TxCLK pin. Only

one transmit clock signal is provided from the

CS8904, thus the TxCLK signal is shared by the

four interface ports. The controller causes a

transition to occur on the TxENBL pin, indicating

the start and completion of the data to be

transmitted. When a port is operating half duplex,

the transmitted data is looped back to the controller

during

transmission

the

RxDATA

pin,

synchronized by the receive clock present on the

RxCLK pin. This is referred to as MAU loopback

to distinguish it from the Port Loopback capability

described in Section 4.3.2 (Control and Status

Information) below.

4.3.1.2 Jabber Indication

If the serial data provided by the controller to the

CS8904 continues for greater than 100 ms, the

CS8904 will terminate the transmission of data to

the network, disable the MAU loopback of

transmitted data on the RxDATA pin, and indicate

this condition by raising the JABBER pin. The
