TC3097-8 Preliminary Data Sheet Pin No. Symbol I/O B,Z Description Inter-LEMRIC Data: When asserted as an output this signal provides a serial data stream in NRZ format. This signal is asserted by a LEMRIC when it is receiving data from one of its network segments. The default condition of this signal is to be an input. In this state, it may be driven by other devices on the Inter-LEMRIC bus. Inter-LEMRIC Enable: When asserted as an output this signal provides an activity-framing enable for the serial data stream. The signal is asserted by a LEMRIC when it is receiving data from one of its network segments. The default condition of this signal is to be an input. In this state it may be driven by other devices on the inter-LEMRIC bus. Inter-LEMRIC Clock: When asserted as an output this signal provides a clock signal for the serial data stream. Data (XIRD) is changed on the falling edge of the clock. The default condition of this signal is to be an input. When an input, XIRD is sampled on the rising edge of the clock. In this state it may be driven by other devices on the Inter-LEMRIC bus. Collision on Port N: This denotes that a collision is occurring on the port receiving the data packet (Port N). The default condition of this signal is to be an input. In this state it may be driven by the other devices on the Inter-LEMRIC bus. Activity on Port N: This is a bi-directional signal. The LEMRIC asserts this signal when data or collision information is received from one of its network segments. The LEMRIC senses this signal when this or another LEMRIC in a multi-LEMRIC system is receiving data or collision information. Activity on ANY Port Excluding Port N: This is a bi-directional signal. The LEMRIC asserts this signal when a transmit collision is experienced or multiple ports have active collisions on their network segments. The LEMRIC senses this signal when this LEMRIC or other LEMRICs in a multi-LEMRIC system are experiencing transmission collision or multiple ports have active collisions on their network segments.

When not in test mode, these pins should be left open. [Note:] Pins TEST3 and TEST4 can be used to modify the build in 10BASE-T operation. TEST1 can be used to configure LED display mode (ICPLUS or AMD compatible mode). Refer to port Block Function section for more details. TEST Support Pins 28 TEST1 29 TEST3 30 TEST4 Pin No. Symbol I/O I Description Optional device Reset. A low on this pin causes the device to reset. RESET must be high for normal operation, when not used, please leave open. System Clock. 20 MHz, 50% nominal, 40/60% worst case, duty cycle. The worst-case frequency tolerance and duty cycle limit the range over which the LEMRIC will operate correctly. However, since this clock is used for Manchester data transmission, jitter performance will degrade if clock sources with relatively large tolerances are used.

Copyright (c) 2003, IC Plus Corp. 6/35 July 21. 2003 TC3097-8-DS-R24 TC3097-8 Preliminary Data Sheet 2 2.1 Principles Of Operation Reset The LEMRIC resets when XRESETZ (pin 25) is pulsed low. While reset, the LEMRIC ignores all energy and collision inputs, unjabs all ports, and initializes all timers, counters, and state machines. At the end of reset (XRESETZ goes high), all the LEDs are turned off and the XLRLED1 is turned on. The minimum XRESETZ low pulse is one second to let the power on LED test visually distinguishable. The LEMRIC is fully operational when it exits reset. 2.2 Clock and data Recovery The clock and data recovery circuit (Manchester decoder) is a linear circuit, which it recovers the NRZ data and clock from the Manchester encoded serial data stream. Data from the active port is routed to the decoder and the recovered data is written into the FIFO. 1 Manchester Data 0 1 0 0 1 1 0 1 0 1 1 NRZ Data NRZ Clock Figure 1.

Copyright (c) 2003, IC Plus Corp. 14/35 July 21. 2003 TC3097-8-DS-R24 TC3097-8 Preliminary Data Sheet 2.3.4 Counters and Timers The counters and timers specified on IEEE 802.3. Section 9, are implemented in the LEMRIC. The function and values chosen for each is described below. 2.3.4.1 Tw1 Tw1 is the wait timer for the "End of Transmit" recovery time and it is 8 bit-times in duration. It starts when the LEMRIC ends transmission of a packet and prevents the LEMRIC from receiving this transmission (loop-back energy from the MAU) as a new receiving entity. 2.3.4.2 Tw2 Tw2 is the wait timer for the end of carrier recovery time and is 3 bit-times in duration. It starts when collision on AUI port has ended. Tw2 prevents the LEMRIC from premature detecting the true end-of-collision due to signal uncertainty on the segment at the end of a collision. Refer to the following figure. If a collision (SQE) is detected on AUI segment, the Tw2 timer becomes armed. Tw2 begins timing when collision is idle (/SQE). After Tw2 is done, the timer remains idle until the next AUI collision. RESET IDLE Tw2Done Collin(ANY)=SQE ARM Tw2NotDone Collin(ALL)=/SQE Enable Tw2 TIMING Tw2=Done Figure 5. Tw2 State Diagram. 2.3.4.3 Tw3 Tw3 is the wait timer for length of continuous output and it has duration of 65536 bit-times . It starts when transmission of a packet begins. If Tw3 expires before the end of packet transmission, the LEMRIC enters the MAU jabber lockup protection condition and interrupts transmission for period Tw4. Refer to the figure 6 for further details. 2.3.4.4 Tw4 Tw4 is the wait timer for time to disable output for MAU jabber lockup protection and it has duration of 96 bit-times . It starts d when Tw3 expires. While Tw4 is active, transmission to all ports is disabled. The global state machine is reset to the idle state, the FIFO controller is also reset, and the clock recovery circuit continues to decode the incoming data stream. If the port is still active when Tw4 expires, the LEMRIC will resume transmission beginning with preamble. The MAU lockup LED (XJABLED) is turned on to indicates the suspension of transmission.

It starts when carrier (or collision on AUI ports) from a port becomes active. If a collision is detected before Tw5 expires, the collision count for that port is incremented and the port Tw6 timer will be started. Tw5 is also used in the auto-partition algorithm to exit the Partition collision Watch state. A separate Tw5 timer is implemented for each of the TP and AUI ports. Refer to the auto-partition state diagrams for specific timer operation. 2.3.4.6 Tw6 Tw6 is the auto-partition wait timer for excessive length of collision and it has duration of 1024 bit-times. It starts if a collision (multiple active port or SQE) is detected before Tw5 expires. If the collision condition persists when Tw6 expires. The energy and data from that port are partitioned (jabbed). A separate Tw6 timer is implemented for each of the TP and AUI ports. Refer to the auto-partition state diagrams for specific timer operation. 2.3.4.7 Collision counter The collision counter maintains the number of consecutive collisions for a particular port. If the collision limit is reached, the energy and data from that port are partitioned (jabbed). A separate collision counter with limit 31 is implemented for each of the TP and AUI ports. 2.3.4.8 Transmit Timer The transmit timer counts the number of bits transmitted to a port. If the total number of bits transmitted is less than 96 (due to reception of a packet fragment), the LEMRIC will enter the Receive Collision global state and transmit Jam until the transmit timer reaches a count of 96. There by extending the bit stream to greater or equal to 96 bits time. The transmit timer is cleared when the LEMRIC enters the Transmit Collision global state. This ensures that at least 96 bits of jam signals are transmitted to all ports before the LEMRIC exits the Transmit Collision state. This also means that the LEMRIC will have transmitted more than 96 bits of jam signals to all but one port if the transmit collision state was entered from the Receive collision state.

Transmit Timer State Diagram for Port X. 2.3.5 Automatic Preamble Regeneration Automatic preamble regeneration (APRG) prevents the preamble from shrinking as a packet is passed from repeater to repeater or station to station. This shrinking, or loss of bits, is due to the bit cost of determing the presence of carrier and synchronizing of the Manchester data for NRZ data and clock recovery. The LEMRIC compensates for the bit loss by transmitting greater or equal to 56 bits of preamble before sending the Start of Frame Delimiter (SFD) pattern. 2.3.5.1 APRG Circuit Operation When carrier is detected, the LEMRIC begins sending preamble and searches for the SFD pattern in the recovered NRZ data. The delay from carrier transition to the first transmitted bit of preamble is four to five bit-times for AUI carrier and eight to nine bit-times for TP carrier. The LEMRIC begins to search for the eight-bit SFD pattern 15 to 16 bits after the carrier transition. When the SFD pattern is detected, the data followed by the SFD is loaded into a 64-bit FIFO. After the preamble bits are sent, the SFD pattern will be sent next, and then finally the FIFO data will be transmitted. Since at least 56 bits of preamble must be sent, the FIFO must be of sufficient depth to store the data after the SFD pattern. A FIFO depth of 64 is chosen to allow the processing of packet with very few bits of preamble before SFD. The FIFO watermark is achieved by reloading the FIFO with part of the SFD pattern. A preamble counter maintains the number of preamble bits transmitted, and is implemented such that the total count equals 56 plus the number of SFD bits not reloaded into the FIFO. For a watermark of four bits, the preamble counter counts to 60 (56 preamble bits plus the first four bits of SFD). The received packet must contain at least 16 preambles bits for the LEMRIC to detect SFD. There is no upper limit on the number of preamble bits received. The latency of bits through the LEMRIC is inversely related to the number of preamble bits received. That is the data in a packet with a small number (less than 56) of preamble bits must be stored (and therefore be held a longer period of time) until the full preamble can be regenerated. Confidential. Copyright (c) 2003, IC Plus Corp. 17/35 July 21. 2003 TC3097-8-DS-R24 TC3097-8 Preliminary Data Sheet For a packet with a large number (greater or equal to 56) of preamble bits, the latency will approach the processing time of the LEMRIC (including watermark) to get a bit from the input through the FIFO to the output. If the number of preamble bits received is greater than 56, the LEMRIC will add up to four preamble bits to the packet for TP carrier and up to eight preamble bits for AUI carrier. The leading edge of the first preamble bit transmitted by the LEMRIC, as seen on the line. Denotes the beginning of a 100 nanosecond positive (TTL logic one). 2.3.5.2 APRG State Diagram The following state diagram describes the LEMRIC APRG operation. When carrier is detected, the APRG circuit waits from four to noise bit-times and then begins sending preamble. The preamble counter (PC) increments for each preamble bit sent. When the SFD pattern is detected (all eight bits), the data bits are loaded into the FIFO and the SFD pattern is sent. The error paths indicate some sort of packet abort, such as collision, Manchester code violation, FIFO error, or premature end of packet. The state diagram notation is similar to that of the global state diagram.

These signals implement a protocol, which may be used to connect multiple LEMRICs together. In this configuration, the logical function of a single repeater is maintained. The resulting multi-LEMRIC system is compliant to the IEEE 802.3 Repeater Specification and may connect serval hundred network segments.

LEMRIC to drive this signal LEMRIC Receiving the Signal The signal is monitored by all other LEMRICs in the repeater system. 2.3.6.1 Methods of LEMRIC Cascading In order to build multi-LEMRIC repeaters, PORT N and PORT M identification must be performed across all the LEMRICs in the system. The top of the chain, the input to Port 1 is accessible to the user via the LEMRIC's /ACKI input pin. The output from the bottom of the chain becomes the /ACKO output pin. In a single LEMRIC system PORT N is defined as the port in the arbitration chain with receive or collision activity. PORT N identification is performed when the repeater is in the IDLE state. In order for the arbitration chain to function, all that needs to be done is to tie the /ACKI signal to a logic high state. In multi-LEMRIC systems there are two methods to propagate the arbitration chain between LEMRICs: The first and most straightforward way is to extend the arbitration chain by daisy-chaining the /ACKI-/ACKO signals between LEMRICs. In this approach one LEMRIC is placed at the top of the chain Confidential. Copyright (c) 2003, IC Plus Corp. 20/35 July 21. 2003 TC3097-8-DS-R24 TC3097-8 Preliminary Data Sheet (its /ACKI input is tied high), then the /ACKO signal from this LEMRIC is send to the /ACKI input of the next LEMRIC and so on. This arrangement is simple to implement but it places some topological restrictions upon the repeater system. In particular, when the repeater is constructed using a backplane with removable printed circuit boards containing the LEMRICs, If one of the boards is removed then the /ACKI-/ACKO chain will be broken and the repeater will not operate correctly. The second method of PORT N or PORT M identification avoids this problem. This second technique relies on an external parallel arbiter, which monitors all of the LEMRIC's /ACKO signals and responds to the LEMRIC with the highest priority. In this scheme each LEMRIC is assigned with a priority level. One method of doing this is to assign a priority number, which reflects the position of a LEMRIC board on the repeater backplane (i.e., its slot number). When a LEMRIC experiences receive activity and the repeater system is in the IDLE state, the LEMRIC board will assert /ACKO. External arbitration logic drives the identification number onto an arbitration bus and the LEMRIC containing PORT N will be identified. An identical procedure is used in the TRANSMIT COLLISION state to identify PORT M. This parallel means of arbitration is not subject to the problems caused by missing boards (I. e., empty slots in the backplane). The logic associated with asserting this arbitration vector in the various in the various packet repetition scenarios could be implemented in PAL or GAL type devices. To perform PORT N or PORT M arbitration, both of the above methods employ the same signals: /ACKI, /ACKO, and /ACTN. The Inter-LEMRIC bus allows multi-LEMRIC operations to be performed in exactly the same manner as if there is only a single LEMRIC in the system. The simplest way to describe the operation of Inter-LEMRIC bus is to see how it is used in a number of common packet repetition scenarios. 2.3.6.2 EXAMPLES OF PACKET REPETITION SCENARIOS Data Repetition The simplest packet operation performed over the Inter-LEMRIC Bus is data repetition. In this operation a data packet is received at one port and transmitted to all other segments. The first task to be performed is PORT N identification. In situations where two or more ports simultaneously receive packets the Inter-LEMRIC bus operates by choosing one of the active ports and forcing the others to transmit data. This is done to faithfully follow the IEEE specification's allowed exit paths from the IDLE state (I. e., to the SEND PREAMBLE PATTERN or RECEIVE COLLISION states). The packet begins with a preamble pattern derived from the LEMRIC's on chip jam/preamble generator. The data received at PORT N is directed through the receiving multiplexer to the PLL decoder. Once phase lock has been achieved, the decoded data, in NRZ format, with its associated clock and enable signals are asserted onto to IRD, /IRE and IRC Inter-LEMRIC bus lines, This serial data stream is received from the bus by all LEMRICs in the repeater and directed to their Elasticity Buffers. Logic circuit monitors the data stream and look for the Start of Frame Delimiter (SFD). When this has been detected data is loaded into the elasticity buffer for later transmission. This will occur when sufficient preamble has been transmitted and certain internal state machine operations have been fulfilled. Figure 11 shows two LEMRICs, A and B, daisy-chained together with LEMRIC A positioned at the top of the chain. A packet is received at port B1 of LEMRIC B and is then repeated by the other ports in the system. Figure 12 shows the functional timing diagram for this packet repetition represented by the signals shown in figure 11. In this example only two ports in the system are shown, obviously the other port also repeat the packet. It also indicates the operation of the LEMRIC's state machines in so far as can be seen by observing the Inter-LEMRIC bus. For reference, the repeater's state transitions are shown in terms of the states defined by the IEEE specification. The location (I. e., which port it is) of Confidential.

Copyright (c) 2003, IC Plus Corp. 22/35 July 21. 2003 TC3097-8-DS-R24 TC3097-8 Preliminary Data Sheet /ACTN bus signal, following a defined start up delay the repeater moves to the SEND PREAMBLE state. The LEMRIC system utilizes the start up delay to perform port arbitration. When packet transmission begins the LEMRIC system enters the REPEAT state. The expected, for normal packet repetition, sequence of repeater states, SEND PREAMBLE, SEND SFD and SEND DATA is followed but is not visible upon the Inter-LEMRIC bus. They are merged together into a single REPEAT state. This is also true for the WAIT and IDLE states; they appear as a combined Inter-LEMRIC bus IDLE state. Once a repeat operation has begun (I. e., the repeater leaves the IDLE state) it is required to transmit at least 96 bits of data or jam/preamble into its network segments. If the duration of the received signal from PORT N is smaller than 96 bits, the repeater transitions to the RECEIVE COLLISION state (described later). This behavior is known as fragment extension. After the packet data has been repeated, including the emptying of the LEMRICs' elasticity buffers, the LEMRIC performs the Tw1 transmit recovery operation. This is performed during the WAIT state shown in the repeater state diagram. 2.3.6.3 EXAMPLES OF PACKET REPETITION SCENARIOS Receive Collisions A receive collision is a collision which occurs on the network segment attached to PORT N (i.e., the collision is "received" in a similar manner as a data packet is received and then repeated to the other network segments). The receiving collision propagation follows a similar sequence of operations as is found with data repetition: An arbitration process is performed to find PORT N and a preamble/jam pattern is transmitted by the repeater's other ports. When PORT N detects a collision on its segment the /COLN Inter-LEMRIC bus signal is asserted. This forces all the LEMRICs in the system to transmit a preamble/jam pattern to their segments. This is important since they may be already transmitting data from their elasticity buffers. The repeater moves to the RECEIVE COLLISION state when the LEMRICs begin to transmit the jam pattern. The repeater remains in this state until both the following conditions have been fulfilled: 1. At least 96 bits have been transmitted onto the network, 2. The activity has ended. Under close examination the repeater specification reveals that the actual end of activity has its own permutations of conditions: 1. Collision and receive data signals may end simultaneously, 2. Receive data may appear to end before collision signals, 3. Receive data may continue for some time after the end of the collision signal. Network segments using coaxial media may experience spurious gaps in segment activity when the collision signal goes inactive. This arises from the inter-action between the received and collision signal squelch circuits. Implemented in coaxial transceivers, and the properties of the coaxial cable itself. The repeater specification avoids propagation of these activity gaps by extending collision activity by the Tw2 wait time. Jam pattern transmission must be sustained throughout this period. After this, the repeater will move to the WAIT state unless there is a data signal being received by PORT N. The functional timing diagram, figure 11, shows the operation of a repeater system during a receive collision. The system configuration is the same as earlier described and is shown in Figure 9. The LEMRICs perform the same PORT N arbitration and data repetition operations as previously described. The system is notified of the receive collision on port B1 by the /COLN bus signal going active. This is the signal, which informs the main state machines to output the jam pattern rather than the data held in the elasticity buffers. Once a collision has occurred the IRC, IRD and /IRE bus signals may become undefined. When the collision has ended and the Tw2 operation performed, the repeater moves to the WAIT state. Confidential.

Receive Collision 2.3.6.4 EXAMPLES OF PACKET REPETITION SCENARIOS Transmit Collisions A transmit collision is a collision that is detected upon a segment to which the repeater system is transmitting. The state machine monitoring the colliding segment asserts the /ANYXN bus signal. The assertion of /ANYXN causes PORT M arbitration to begin. The repeater moves to the TRANSMIT COLLISION state when the port, which had been PORT N starts to transmit a Manchester encoded 1 on to its network segment. While in the TRANSMIT COLLISION state all ports of the repeater must transmit the 1010... jam pattern and PORT M arbitration is performed. Each LEMRIC is obliged, by the IEEE specification, to ensure all of its ports transmit for at least 96 bits once the TRANSMIT COLLISION state has been entered. This transmit activity is enforced by the /ANYXN bus signal. While /ANYXN is active all LEMRIC ports will transmit jam. To ensure this situation lasts for at least 96 bits, the MSMs (Main state Machine) inside the LEMRICs assert the /ANYXN signal throughout this period. After this period has elapsed, /ANYXN will only be asserted if there are multiple ports with active collisions on their network segments. There are two possible ways for a repeater to leave the TRANSMIT COLLISION state. The most straightforward is when network activity (I. e., collisions and their Tw2 extensions) end before the 96-bits enforced period expires. Under these conditions the repeater system may be move directly to the WAIT state when 96 bits have been transmitted to all ports. If the MSM enforced period ends and there is still one port experiencing a collision the ONE PORT LEFT state is entered. This may be seen on the Inter-LEMRIC bus when /ANYXN is reasserted and PORT M stops transmitting to its network segment. In this circumstance the Inter-LEMRIC bus transitions to the RECEIVE COLLISION state. The repeater will remain in this state while PORT M's collision, Tw2 collision extension and any receive signals are present. When these conditions are not true, packet repetition finishes and the repeater enters the WAIT state. Figure 12 shows a multi-LEMRIC system operating under transmit collision conditions. There are many different scenarios which occur during a transmit collision; this figure illustrates one of these. The Confidential. Copyright (c) 2003, IC Plus Corp. 24/35 July 21. 2003 TC3097-8-DS-R24 TC3097-8 Preliminary Data Sheet diagram begins with packet reception by port A1. Port B1 experiences a collision, since it is not PORT N it asserts /ANYXN. This alerts the MSMs in the system to switch from data to jam pattern transmission. Port A1 is also monitoring the /ANYXN bus line. Its assertion forces A1 to relinquish its PORT N status, start transmission, stop asserting /ACTN and release its hold on the arbitration signals (/ACKO A and /ACKI B). The first bit it transmits will be a Manchester encoded "1" in the jam pattern. Since port B1 is the only port with a collision, it attains PORT M status and stop asserting /ANYXN. It does however assert /ACTN, and exert its presence upon the arbitration chain (forces /ACKO B low). The MSMs ensure that /ANYXN stays active and thus forces all of the ports, including PORT M, to transmit to their segments. After some time, port A1 experience of the packet being received from port A1's segment plus the jam signal the repeater is now transmitting onto this segment. Two packets transmit as one segment, which results in a collision. PORT M now moves from B1 to A1. Port A1 fulfills the same criteria as B1 (I. e., it has an active collision on its segment), but in addition it is higher in the arbitration chain.

Transmit Collision Eventually the collision on port B1 ends and the /ANYXN extension by the MSMs expires. There is only one collision on the network (this may be deduced since /ANYXN is inactive) so the repeater will move to the ONE PORT LEFT state. The LEMRIC system treats this state in a similar manner to a receive collision with PORT M fulfilling the role of the receiving port. The difference from a true receive collision is that the switch from packet data to the jam pattern has already been made (controlled by /ANYXN). Thus the state of /COLN has no effect upon repeater operation. In common with the operation of the RECEIVE COLLISION state, the repeater remains in this condition until the collision and receive activity on PORT M subside. The packet repetition operation completes when the Tw1 recovery time in the WAIT state has been performed. 2.3.6.5 EXAMPLES OF PACKET REPETITION SCENARIOS Jabber Protection Confidential. Copyright (c) 2003, IC Plus Corp. 25/35 July 21. 2003 TC3097-8-DS-R24 TC3097-8 Preliminary Data Sheet A repeater is required to disable transmit activity if the length of its current transmission reaches the jabber protect limit. This is defined by the IEEE specification's Tw3 time. The repeater disables output for a time period defined by the Tw4 specification, after this period normal operation may resume. Figure 13 shows the effect of a jabber length packet upon a LEMRIC based repeater system. The JABBER PROTECT state is entered from the SEND DATA state. While the Tw4 period is observed the Inter-LEMRIC bus displays the IDLE state. This is misleading since new packet activity or continuous activity (as shown in the diagram) does not result in packet repetition. This may only occur when the Tw4 requirement has been satisfied.

In addition to the packet repetition operations already described, the port block performs two other functions: 1. The physical connection to the network segment (transceiver function). 2. It provides a means to protect the network from malfunctioning segments (segment partition). 2.3.7.1 TRANSCEIVER FUNCTIONS The LEMRIC may connect to network segments in two ways: 1. Over AUI cable to transceiver boxes (Port 1) 2. To twisted pair cable via a simple interface. The first method is only supported by LEMRIC Port 1 (the AUI port). The other is available on Ports 2 to 9. The LEMRIC contains virtually all the digital and analog circuits required for connection to 10BASE-T network segments. The only optional additional active component is an external drive package. The connection for a LEMRIC port to a 10BASE-T segment is shown in figure 14. The diagram shows the components required to connect one of the LEMRIC's ports to a 10BASE-T segment (and lists a few module P/Ns and vendors). The major components are the integrated filter-transformer-choke module (or discrete combination of these functions). The operation of the 10BASE-T transceiver's logical functions may be modified by hardware reset control. The default mode of operation is for the transceiver to transmit and expect reception of link Confidential.

This may be modified if the XTEST4 pin pulled down (pull down resistor is needed) before hardware reset operation. The port's transceiver will operate normally but will not transmit link pulses nor monitor their reception. Thus the entry to a link fail state and the associated modification of transceiver operation will not occur until another hardware reset and new logic setting on XTEST4 pin. The on-chip 10BASE-T transceivers automatically detect and correct the polarity of the received data stream. This polarity detection scheme relies upon the polarity of the received link pulses and the end of packet waveform. Polarity detection and correction may be disable through XTEST3 pin pulled down by a resistor before hardware reset operation and the associated modification of transceiver operation will not occur until another hardware reset and new logic setting on XTEST3 pin. When using external transceivers the user must perform collision detection and the other functions associated with an IEEE 802.3 Media Access Unit.
