LED and PHY Address Configuration  
These five pins are latched into the IP101A LF during reset to configure PHY address [4:0] used for MII  
management register interface. And then, in normal operation after initial reset, they are used as driving  
pins for status indication LED. The driving polarity, active low or active high, is determined by each  
latched status of the PHY address [4:0] during reset. If latched status is high then it will be active low,  
and if latched status is Low then it will be active high. Moreover, IP101A LF provides 2 LED operation  
modes. If 2nd LED mode is selected by pulling up pin CRS, only 4 LEDs are needed for status  
indication. Default is first LED mode.

Functional Description  
IP101A LF 10/100Mbps Ethernet PHY Transceiver integrates 100 Base-TX and 10 Base-T modules into a  
single chip. IP101A LF acts as an interface between physical signaling and Media Access Controller  
(MAC).  
IP101A LF has several major functions:  
1. PCS layer (Physical Coding Sub-Layer): This function contains transmit, receive and carrier sense  
functional circuitries.  
2. Management interface: Media Independent Interface (MII) or Reduced Management Interface (RMII)  
registers contains information for communication with other MAC.  
3. Auto-Negotiation: Communication conditions between 2 PHY transceivers. IP101A LF advertise its  
own ability and also detects corresponding operational mode from the other party, eventually both  
sides will come to an agreement for their optimized transmission mode.  
IP101A LF’s major features included:  
1. Flow Control ability  
2. LED configuration access  
3. Operation modes for both full and half duplex  
4. APS (Auto Power Saving) mode  
5. Base Line Wander (BLW) compensation  
6. Auto MDI/MDIX function  
7. Interrupt function  
8. Repeater Mode  
9. Flexible clock source  
Major Functional Block Description  
The functional blocks diagram is referred to Figure 1:  
1. 4B/5B encoder: 100 Base-X transmissions require converting 4-bit nibble data into 5-bit wide data  
code-word format. Transmitting data is packaged by J/K codes at the start of packet and by T/R codes  
at the end of packet in the 4B/5B block. When transmit error has occurred during a transmitting  
process, the H error code will be sent. The idle code is sent between two packets.  
2. 4B/5B Decoder: The decoder performs the 5B/4B decoding from the received code-groups. The 5  
bits (5B) data is decoded into four bits nibble data. The decoded 4 bit (4B) data is then forwarded  
through MII to the repeater, switch or MAC device. The SSD is then converted into 4B 5 nibbles and  
the ESD and IDLE Codes are replaced by 4B 0 nibbles data. The decoded data is driven onto the  
corresponding MII port or shared MII port. Receiving an invalid code group will cause PHY to assert  
the MII RXER signal.  
3. Scrambler/Descrambler: Repetitive patterns exist in 4B/5B encoded data which result in large RF  
spectrum peaks and keep the system from being approved by regulatory agencies. The peak in the  
radiated signal is reduced significantly by scrambling the transmitted signal. Scrambler adds a  
random generator to the data signal output. The resulting signal is with fewer repetitive data patterns.  
The scrambled data stream is descrambled at the receiver by adding another random generator to the  
output. The receiver’s random generator has the same function as the transmitter’s random generator.  
Scrambler operation is dictated by the 100Base-TX and TP_FDDI standards.  
4. NRZI/MLT-3(Manchester) Encoder and Decoder: 100Base-TX Transmission requires to encode the  
data into NRZ format and again converted into MLT-3 signal, while 10 Base-T will convert into  
Manchester form after NRZ coding. This helps to remove the high frequency noise generated by the  
twisted pair cables. At receiving end, the coding is reversed from MLT-3 (Manchester) signal back to

Data Sheet  
NRZ format.  
5. Clock Recovery: The receiver circuit recovers data from the input stream by regenerating clocking  
information embedded in the serial stream. The clock recovery block extracts the RXCLK from the  
transition of received  
6. DSP Engine: This block includes Adaptive equalizer and Base Line Wander correction function.  
Transmission Description  
10Mbps Transmit flow path:  
TXD J Parallel to Serial J NRZI/Manchester Encoder J D/A & line driver J TXO  
After MAC passes data to PHY via 4 bits nibbles, the data are serialized in the parallel to serial converter.  
The converter outputs NRZI coded data which the data are then mapped to Manchester code within the  
Manchester Encoder. Before transmitting to the physical medium, the Manchester coded data are shaped  
by D/A converter to fit the physical medium.  
10Mbps Receive:  
RXI J Squelch J Clock Recovery J Manchester/NRZ Decoder J Serial to Parallel J RXD  
The squelch block determines valid data from both AC timing and DC amplitude measurement. When a  
valid data is present in the medium, squelch block will generate a signal to indicate the data has received.  
The data receive are coded in Manchester form, and are decoded in the Manchester to NRZ Decoder.  
Then the data are mapped to 4 bits nibbles and transmitted onto MAC interface.  
100Mbps TX Transmit:  
TXD J 4B/5B Encoder J Scrambler J Mux J Parallel to Serial J NRZI/MLT-3 Encoder J D/A & line  
driver J TXO  
The major differences between 10Mbps transmission and 100Mbps transmission are that 100Mbps  
transmission requires to be coded from 4-bit wide nibbles to 5 bits wide data coding, and after that the  
data are scrambled through scrambler to reduce the radiated energy generated by the 4B/5B conversion.  
Then the data is converted into NRZI form and again from NRZI coded form into MLT-3 form. The MLT-3  
data form is fed into D/A converter and shaped to fit the physical medium transmission.  
100Mbps RX Receive:  
RXI J DSP J MLT-3/NRZI Decoder J Clock Recovery J Serial to Parallel J Descrambler J 4B/5B  
Decoder J RXD  
The received data first go through DSP engines which includes adaptive equalizer and base-line wander  
correction mechanism. The adaptive equalizer will compensate the loss of signals during the transmission,  
while base-line wander monitors and corrects the equalization process. If a valid data is detected then the  
data are parallelized in Serial to Parallel block, which it converts NRZI coded data form back to scrambled  
data. The scrambled data are descrambled and converted back to 4 bits–wide format data and then feed  
into MAC.  
MII and Management Control Interface  
Media Independent Interface (MII) is described in clause 22 in the IEEE 802.3u standard. The main  
function of this interface is to provide a communication path between PHY and MAC/Repeater. It can  
operate either in 10Mbps or 100Mbps environment, and operate at 2.5MHz frequency for 10Mbps clock  
data rate or 25MHz frequency for 100Mbps data rate transmission. MII consists of 4 bit wide data path for  
both transmit and receive. The transmission pins consists of TXD[3:0], TX_EN and TXC, and at receiving  
MII pins have RXD[3:0], RXER, RX_DV and RXC. The Management control pins include MDC and MDIO.

IP101A LF-DS-R12  
IP101A LF  
Data Sheet  
MDC, Management Data Clock, provides management data clock at maximum of 10MHz as a reference  
for MDIO, Management Data Input/Output. CRS, Carrier Sense, is used for signaling data transmission is  
in process while COL, Collision, is used for signaling the occurrence of collision during transmission.  
Transmitting a packet, MAC will first assert TX_EN and convert the information into 4 bit wide data and  
then pass the data to IP101A LF. IP101A LF will sample the data according to TX_CLK until TX_EN is low.  
While receiving a packet, IP101A LF asserts RX_DV high when data present in the medium through  
RXD[3:0] bus lines. IP101A LF samples received data according to RX_CLK until the medium is back to  
idle state.  
RMII Interface  
Reduced Media Independent Interface (RMII) is defined to provide a fewer pins data transmission  
condition. The management interface, MDC and MDIO, are identical to the MII defined in IEEE 802.3.  
RMII supports 10/100Mb data rates and the clock source is provided by a single 50MHz clock from either  
external or within IP101A LF. This clock is used as reference for transmit, receive and control. RMII  
provides independent 2 bit wide transmit and receive data path, i.e., TXD[1:0] and RXD[1:0]. CRS_DV is  
asserted when the receive medium is not idle and de-asserted when the medium is idle.  
Before any transmission occurs, CRS_DV should be de-asserted and value “00” should be present in  
both TXD[1:0] and RXD[1:0]. When transmission begins, IP101A LF will send “01” (TXD[1:0] = 01) for  
preamble to indicate SFD, and also assert TX_EN synchronous with first nibble of the preamble. TX_EN  
should be de-asserted until the end of the data transmission. At receiving mechanism, by receiving “01”  
means a valid data is available. If False carrier is detected, RXD[1:0] shall be “10” until the end of the  
transmission.  
At 10Mbps mode, every 10th cycle of REF_CLK will be sampled in RXD[1:0] and TXD[1:], because the  
REF_CLK frequency is 10 times faster than the data rate of the 10Mbps.  
SNI Interface  
The IP101A LF also provides serial-network interface for legacy MACs, when the chip operates at  
10BASE-T either by Auto-Negotiation resolved result or by forced mode. To setup for this mode of  
operation, pull both the MII/SNIB and the COL/RMII pins to low.  
The transaction protocol of SNI interface is almost identical to that of MII interface, except of data bit width  
and clock rate. This interface consists of 10Mbps transmit and receive clock generated by PHY’s digital  
phase-locked loop (DPLL), 10Mbps transmit and receive serial data, transmit enable, collision detect, and  
carry sense signals.

IP101A LF  
Data Sheet  
Auto-Negotiation and Related Information  
IP101A LF supports clause 28 in the IEEE 802.3u standard. IP101A LF can be operated either in  
10Mbps/100Mbps or half/full duplex transmission mode. IP101A LF also supports flow control mechanism  
to prevent any collision in the network. If the other end does not support Auto-Negotiation function,  
IP101A LF will link at half duplex mode and enter parallel detection.  
At beginning of auto-negotiation, IP101A LF will advertise its own ability by sending FLP waveform out to  
the other end and also listening signals from the other end. IP101A LF will place itself into correct  
connection speed depends on the received signals. If NLP signal is replied from the other end, IP101A LF  
will enter 10Mbps, while active idle pulses (unique 100Mbps pattern) IP101A LF will go to 100Mbps mode  
instead.  
Once the negotiation has completed with the other party, IP101A LF will configure itself to the desired  
connection mode, i.e., 10/100Mbps or Half/Full duplex modes. If there is no detection of link pulses within  
1200~1500ms, IP101A LF will enter Link Fail State and restart auto-negotiation procedure.  
The auto-negotiation information is stored in the IP101A LF’s MII registers. These registers can be  
modified and monitor the IP101A LF’s Auto-Negotiation status. The reset auto-negotiation in register 0 of  
MII registers can be set at any time to restart auto-negotiation.  
The flow control ability is also included in the IP101A LF chip. If MAC supports flow control condition, then  
flow control will be enabled by setting bit 10 (Pause) of the Register 4.  
Pin 37 (AN_ENA), 38 (DLPX), 39 (SPD) can be configured manually to set IP101A LF’s transmission  
ability.  
1. Enabling Pin 37 (set high) will put IP101A LF to Auto-Negotiation mode, if set low to pin 37, it will put  
IP101A LF into forced mode.  
2. Pin 38 will configure Duplex ability of IP101A LF, at high, IP101A LF is set to Full-Duplex and low will  
let IP101A LF enter half duplex mode.  
3. Pin 39 determines the speed of connection. If the pin is pulled high, IP101A LF is set at 100Mbps,  
while at low will make IP101A LF to connect at 10Mbps speed.

Figure 3: PHY address Configuration  
The left diagram will enable the specific PHY address to 1, if it is connected to VDD33. The diagram on  
the right shows the configuration for setting PHY address to 0, when the circuit is connected to ground.  
By setting either one of the bits according to the diagram will allow one to modify PHY addresses from  
PHYAD0 to PHYAD4.

While pin1=1 and pin44=0 has been selected, 50MHz clock will be provided by IP101A LF in RMII mode.  
We suggest the application circuit as the following :  
CPU/Switch/MAC  
50MHz colck  
Other PHY  
Buffer  
Pin16  
Pin7  
IP101A  
Pin46

For this configuration, RMII reference clock for IP101A LF is from pin7. Clock skew could be eliminated by  
adding an external buffer and placing equal trace lengths between buffer outputs and each chip.

Data Sheet  
Power-Down Modes  
IP101A LF can be power-down by 4 methods. These 4 methods are as follow:  
Power Down in bit 11 of Register 0: Enable this bit will disconnect the power to IP101A LF and also  
internal clock, but MDC and MDIO are still activated.  
APS mode in bit 1 of Register 16: Set high to this bit will set PHY into power saving mode(APS sleeping  
mode) while link is down, MDC and MDIO are kept activated. IP101A LF will send NLP every 64ms during  
APS sleeping mode.  
Analog off in bit 0 of Register 16: Enable this bit will put IP101A LF in analog off state. This will power  
down all analog functions but internal 25MHz operating clock is active, and MDC and MDIO are also  
activated.  
ISOL pin (pin 43): Set high will isolate IP101A LF from MAC and disable management interface (MDC and  
MDIO). The power usage is at minimum when this pin is activated.  
Repeater Modes  
To enter Repeater mode, one can either set pin 40 (RPTR) to high or set 1 to bit 2 of Register 16 will allow  
IP101A LF to enter Repeater mode. If IP101A LF is used in repeater, CRS will be high if IC is in process of  
receiving packets, while IP101A LF is used in a network interface card, CRS will be generated in both  
transmitting and receiving packets.  
Miscellaneous  
ISET (pin 28) should be connected to GND via a 6.2k ohm resistor with 1% accuracy to ensure a correct  
driving current for transmit DAC.  
Set low to pin 42, REST_N, for at least 10ms will reset all functions available in IP101A LF. The bit 15 of  
Register 0 will put PHY into its default status.  
Interrupt  
IP101A LF provides 4 kinds of interrupt function: speed change, duplex change, link change and arbiter  
state change. Interrupt masks could be selected by Reg 17, and an active low interrupt will be sent from  
pin48 when event occurs.

Serial management interface  
User can access IP101A LF’s MII registers through serial management interface MDC and MDIO. A  
specific pattern on MDIO is used to access a MII register. Its format is shown in the following table. When  
the SMI is idle, MDIO is in high impedance. To initialize the MDIO interface, the management entity sends  
a sequence of 32 contiguous “1” and “start” on MDIO.

Layout Guideline  
General Layout Guideline  
Best performance depends on good layout. The following recommendation steps will help customer to  
gain maximum performance.  
Create good power source to minimize noise from switching power source.  
All components are qualified, especially high noise component, such as clock component.  
Use bulk capacitors between power plane and ground plane for 4 layers board, signals trace on  
component and bottom side, power plane on third layer, and ground layer on second layer.  
Use decoupling capacitors to decouple high frequency noise between chip’s power and ground,  
must be as close as possible to IP101A LF.  
The clock trace length to IP101A LF must be equal the clock trace length to MAC.  
Use guard traces to protect clock traces if possible  
Avoid signals path parallel to clock signals path, because clock signals will interference with other  
parallel signals, degrading signal quality, such as MDC and X1signals.  
The clock must be low jitter with less than 0.5ns for 25/50/125Mhz 100ppm.  
Avoid highly speed signal across ground gap to prevent large EMI effect.  
Keep ground region as one continuous and unbroken plane.  
Place a gap between the system and chassis grounds.  
No any ground loop exists on the chassis ground.  
Twisted Pair recommendation  
When routing the TD+/- signal traces from IP101A LF to transformer, the traces should be as short as  
possible, the termination resistors should be as close as possible to the output of the TD+/- pair of IP101A  
LF. Center tap of primary winding of these transformers must be connected to analog 2.5V respectively. It  
is recommended that RD+/- trace pair be route such that the space between it and others is three times  
space, which can separate individual traces from one another.  
It is recommended that offers chassis ground in the area between transformer and media connector  
(RJ-45 port), this isolates the analog signals from external noise sources and reduces EMI effect. Note the  
usage of the vias, it is best not use via to place anywhere other than in close proximity to device, in order  
to minimize impedance variations in a given signal trace.
