LXT9763  
Fast Ethernet 10/100 Hex Transceiver with Full MII  
Datasheet  
The LXT9763 is a six-port PHY Fast Ethernet Transceiver that supports IEEE 802.3 physical  
layer applications at both 10 and 100 Mbps. The mixed-signal adaptive equalization and clock  
recovery with proprietary Optimal Signal Processing (OSP™) architecture improves SNR 3 dB  
over ideal analog filters. All six network ports provide a combination twisted-pair (TP) or  
pseudo-ECL (PECL) interface for a 10/100BASE-TX or 100BASE-FX connection. The  
LXT9763 supports both half- and full-duplex operation at 10 and 100 Mbps.  
A fully independent Media Independent Interface (MII) for each port provides maximum  
control for switch and multi-port adapter applications.  
In addition to an expanded set of MDIO registers, the LXT9763 provides three discrete LED  
driver outputs for each port. The LXT9763 requires only a single 3.3V power supply.  
Applications  
100BASE-T, 10/100-TX, or 100BASE-FX  
Switches and multi-port NICs.  
Product Features  
Six independent IEEE 802.3-compliant  
10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX ports with  
integrated filters.  
JTAG boundary scan.  
Six MII ports for independent PHY port  
operation.  
Proprietary Optimal Signal Processing™  
(OSP™) architecture improves SNR by 3  
dB over ideal analog filters.  
Configurable via MDIO port or external  
control pins.  
Maskable interrupts.  
Baseline wander correction for improved  
Very low power 3.3V operation  
100BASE-TX performance.  
(380 mW per channel, typical).  
100BASE-FX fiber-optic capability on all  
208-pin PQFP (0-70 oC ambient  
ports.  
temperature range).  
Supports both auto-negotiation and legacy  
systems without auto-negotiation  
capability.

LXT9763 Fast Ethernet 10/100 Hex Transceiver with Full MII  
1.0  
Functional Description  
1.1  
Introduction  
The LXT9763 six-port Fast Ethernet 10/100 Transceiver supports 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps  
networks. It complies with all applicable requirements of IEEE 802.3. Each port directly drives  
either a 100BASE-TX line (up to 100 meters) or a 10BASE-T line (up to 185 meters). The  
LXT9763 also supports 100BASE-FX operation via a Pseudo-ECL (PECL) interface.  
1.1.1  
OSPArchitecture  
Intels LXT9763 incorporates high-efficiency Optimal Signal Processingdesign techniques,  
combining the best properties of digital and analog signal processing to produce a truly optimal  
device.  
The receiver utilizes decision feedback equalization to increase noise and cross-talk immunity by  
as much as 3 dB over an ideal all-analog equalizer. Using OSP mixed-signal processing techniques  
in the receive equalizer avoids the quantization noise and calculation truncation errors found in  
traditional DSP-based receivers (typically complex DSP engines with A/D converters). This  
results in improved receiver noise and cross-talk performance.  
The OSP signal processing scheme also requires substantially less computational logic than  
traditional DSP-based designs. This lowers power consumption and also reduces the logic  
switching noise generated by high-speed DSP engines. This logic switching noise can be a  
considerable source of EMI generated on the devices power supplies.  
The OSP-based LXT9763 provides improved data recovery, EMI performance, and power  
consumption.  
1.1.2  
Comprehensive Functionality  
The LXT9763 provides six standard Media Independent Interfaces (MIIs) for 10/100 MACs, each  
serving an individual network port. The LXT9763 performs all functions of the Physical Coding  
Sublayer (PCS) and Physical Media Attachment (PMA) sublayer as defined in the IEEE 802.3  
100BASE-X specification. This device also performs all functions of the Physical Media  
Dependent (PMD) sublayer for 100BASE-TX connections.  
On power-up, the LXT9763 reads its configuration pins to check for forced operation settings. If  
not configured for forced operation, each port uses auto-negotiation/parallel detection to  
automatically determine line operating conditions. If the PHY device on the other side of the link  
supports auto-negotiation, the LXT9763 auto-negotiates with it using Fast Link Pulse (FLP) bursts.  
If the PHY partner does not support auto-negotiation, the LXT9763 automatically detects the  
presence of either link pulses (10 Mbps PHY) or Idle symbols (100 Mbps PHY) and set its  
operating conditions accordingly.  
The LXT9763 provides half-duplex and full-duplex operation at 100 Mbps and 10 Mbps.

1.2.1  
10/100 Network Interface  
The LXT9763 supports both 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX Ethernet over twisted-pair, or 100  
Mbps Ethernet over fiber media (100BASE-FX). Each of the six network interface ports consists of  
four external pins (two differential signal pairs). The pins are shared between twisted-pair (TP) and  
fiber. Refer to Table 2 on page 13 for specific pin assignments.  
The LXT9763 output drivers generate either 100BASE-TX, 10BASE-T, or 100BASE-FX output.  
When not transmitting data, the LXT9763 generates 802.3-compliant link pulses or idle code. Input  
signals are decoded either as a 100BASE-TX, 100-BASE-FX, or 10BASE-T input, depending on  
the mode selected. Auto-negotiation/parallel detection or manual control is used to determine the  
speed of this interface.  
1.2.2  
Twisted-Pair Interface  
When operating at 100 Mbps, the LXT9763 continuously transmits and receives MLT3 symbols.  
When not transmitting data, the LXT9763 generates IDLEsymbols.  
During 10 Mbps operation, Manchester-encoded data is exchanged. When no data is being  
exchanged, the line is left in an idle state.  
The LXT9763 supports either 100BASE-TX or 10BASE-T connections over 100Ω, Category 5,  
Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) cable. Only a transformer, RJ-45 connector, series capacitors and  
load resistor, and bypass capacitors are required to complete this interface. On the receive side, the  
Datasheet  
17  
LXT9763 Fast Ethernet 10/100 Hex Transceiver with Full MII  
internal impedance is high enough that it has no practical effect on the external termination circuit.  
On the transmit side, Intels patented waveshaping technology shapes the outgoing signal to help  
reduce the need for external EMI filters. Four slew rate settings (refer to Table 3 on page 13) allow  
the designer to match the output waveform to the magnetic characteristics.  
1.2.3  
Fiber Interface  
The LXT9763 provides a PECL interface that complies with the ANSI X3.166 specification. This  
interface is suitable for driving a fiber-optic coupler. Fiber ports cannot be enabled via auto-  
negotiation; they must be enabled via the MDIO interface.  
1.2.4  
1.2.5  
Configuration Management Interface  
The LXT9763 provides both an MDIO interface and a hardware control interface (via the LED/  
CFG pins) for device configuration and management.  
MDIO Management Interface  
The LXT9763 supports the IEEE 802.3 MII Management Interface also known as the Management  
Data Input/Output (MDIO) Interface. This interface allows upper-layer devices to monitor and  
control the state of the LXT9763. The MDIO interface consists of a physical connection, a specific  
protocol that runs across the connection, and an internal set of addressable registers.  
Some registers are required and their functions are defined by the IEEE 802.3 specification. The  
LXT9763 also supports additional registers for expanded functionality. The LXT9763 supports 12  
internal registers per port (48 total), each of which is 16 bits wide. Specific register bits are  
referenced using an X.Ynotation, where X is the register number (0-32) and Y is the bit number  
(0-15).  
The physical interface consists of a data line (MDIO) and clock line (MDC). The timing for the  
MDIO Interface is shown in Table 33 on page 57. MDIO read and write cycles are shown in Figure  
5 (read) and Figure 6 (write).  
1.3  
MII Addressing  
The protocol allows one controller to communicate with multiple LXT9763 chips. Pins  
ADD_<4:0> determine the base address. Each port adds its port number to the base address to  
obtain its port address as shown in Figure 4.

MII Interrupts  
The LXT9763 provides a single interrupt pin available to all ports. Interrupt logic is shown in  
Figure 7. The LXT9763 also provides two dedicated interrupt registers for each port. Register 18  
provides interrupt enable and mask functions and Register 19 provides interrupt status. Setting bit  
18.1 = 1, enables a port to request interrupt via the MDINT pin. An active Low on this pin indicates  
a status change on the LXT9763. However, because it is a shared interrupt, it does not indicate  
which port is requesting service. Interrupts may be caused by one of four conditions:  
Auto-negotiation complete  
Speed status change  
Duplex status change  
Link status change

1.3.1  
Hardware Control Interface  
The LXT9763 provides a Hardware Control Interface for applications where the MDIO is not  
desired. The Hardware Control Interface consists of three Configuration (CFG) pins for each port.  
The CFG pins double as LED drivers. Refer to Hardware Configuration Settingson page 23 for  
additional details.  
1.3.2  
MII Data Interface  
The LXT9763 supports six standard MIIs (one per port). The MII consists of a data interface and a  
management interface. The MII Data Interface passes data between the LXT9763 and one or more  
Media Access Controllers (MACs). Separate parallel buses are provided for transmit and receive.  
This interface operates at either 2.5 MHz or 25 MHz. The speed is set automatically, once the  
operating conditions of the network link have been determined.  
1.4  
Operating Requirements  
1.4.1  
Power Requirements  
The LXT9763 requires four power supply inputs, VCCD, VCCR, VCCT, and VCCIO. The digital  
and analog circuits require 3.3 V supplies (VCCD, VCCR and VCCT). These inputs may be  
supplied from a single source although decoupling is required to each respective ground.  
20  
Datasheet  
Fast Ethernet 10/100 Hex Transceiver with Full MII LXT9763  
An additional supply may be used for the MII (VCCIO). VCCIO should be supplied from the  
same power source used to supply the controller on the other side of the MII interface. Refer to  
Table 17 on page 45 for MII I/O characteristics.  
As a matter of good practice, these supplies should be as clean as possible. Typical filtering and  
decoupling are shown in 17 on page 41.  
1.5  
Clock Requirements  
1.5.1  
Reference Clock  
The LXT9763 requires a constant 25 MHz reference clock (REFCLK). The reference clock is used  
to generate transmit signals and recover receive signals. A crystal-based clock is recommended  
over a derived clock (i.e, PLL-based) to minmize transmit jitter. Refer to Table 18 on page 45 for  
clock timing requirements.  
1.5.1.1  
MII Clocks  
The LXT9763 requires an MDC reference clock for the MDIO serial channel. Typically operated at  
2.5 MHz, the LXT9763 accepts MDC clocks as high as 8 MHz. Refer to Test Specifications,  
Table 18 on page 45, for MDC clock requirements.  
The LXT9763 supplies both MII data clocks (RX_CLK and TX_CLK) for each port. The MII  
data clocks run at 25 MHz for 100BASE-X operation and at 2.5 MHz for 10BASE-T operation.  
1.6  
Initialization  
When the LXT9763 is first powered on, reset, or encounters a link failure state, it checks the MDIO  
register configuration bits to determine the line speed and operating conditions to use for the  
network link. The configuration bits may be set by the Hardware Control or MDIO interface as  
shown in Figure 8.  
The LXT9763 can be initialized to allow auto-negotiation/ parallel-detection to establish a link, or  
it may be forced to any of the following configurations:  
100FX (Fiber).  
100TX, Full-Duplex  
100TX, Half-Duplex  
10BASE-T, Full-Duplex  
10BASE-T, Half-Duplex  
When the network link is forced to a specific configuration, the LXT9763 immediately begins  
operating the network interface as commanded. When auto-negotiation is enabled, the LXT9763  
begins the auto-negotiation / parallel-detection operation.  
Datasheet  
21  
LXT9763 Fast Ethernet 10/100 Hex Transceiver with Full MII  
1.6.1  
Power-Down Mode  
The LXT9763 provides a per-port Power-Down Mode. Individual port power-down control is  
provided by bit 0.11 in the respective port Control Registers (refer to Table 38 on page 62). During  
individual port power-down, the following conditions are true:  
The individual port is shut down.  
The MDIO registers remain accessible.  
The MDIO registers are unaffected.  
1.6.2  
Reset  
The LXT9763 provides both hardware and software resets. Configuration control of Auto-  
Negotiation, speed and duplex mode selection is handled differently for each. During a hardware  
reset, settings for bits 0.13, 0.12 and 0.8 are read in from the pins (refer to Table 7 on page 23 for  
pin settings and Table 38 on page 62 for register bit definitions).  
During a software reset (0.15 = 1), these bit settings are not re-read from the pins. They revert back  
to the values that were read in during the last hardware reset. Therefore, any changes to pin values  
made since the last hardware reset will not be detected during a software reset.  
During a hardware reset, register information is unavailable for 1 ms after de-assertion of the reset.  
During a software reset (0.15 = 1) the registers are available for reading. The reset bit should be  
polled to see when the part has completed reset (0.15 = 0).

Hardware Configuration Settings  
The LXT9763 provides a hardware option to set the initial device configuration. The hardware  
option uses the three LED/CFG pins for each port. This provides three control bits per port, as  
listed in Table 7. The LED drivers can operate as either open drain or open source circuits as shown  
in Figure 9. The LED pins are sensitive to polarity and will automatically pull up or pull down to  
configure for either open drain or open source circuits (10 mA max current rating) as required by  
the hardware configuration. In applications where all ports are configured the same, several pins  
may be tied together with a single resistor.  
Note: Fiber operation cannot be selected via hardware. Fiber operation must be enabled via the MDIO  
port.

1.8  
Establishing Link  
See Figure 10 for an overview of link establishment.  
1.8.1  
Auto-Negotiation  
The LXT9763 attempts to auto-negotiate with its counter-part across the link by sending Fast Link  
Pulse (FLP) bursts. Each burst consists of 33 link pulses spaced 62.5 µs apart. Odd link pulses  
(clock pulses) are always present. Even link pulses (data pulses) may be present or absent to  
indicate a 1or a 0. Each FLP burst exchanges 16 bits of data, which are referred to as a  
page. All devices that support auto-negotiation must implement the Base Pagedefined by  
IEEE 802.3 (registers 4 and 5). LXT9763 also supports the optional Next Pagefunction  
(registers 7 and 8).  
1.8.1.1  
Base Page Exchange  
By exchanging Base Pages, the LXT9763 and its link partner communicate their capabilities to  
each other. Both sides must receive at least three identical base pages for negotiation to proceed.  
Each side finds the highest common capabilities that both sides support. Both sides then exchange  
more pages, and finally agree on the operating state of the line.  
1.8.1.2  
1.8.1.3  
Next Page Exchange  
Additional information, above that required by base page exchange is also sent via Next Pages.  
The LXT9763 fully supports the 802.3 method of negotiation via Next Page exchange.  
Controlling Auto-Negotiation  
When auto-negotiation is controlled by software, the following steps are recommended:  
After power-up, power-down, or reset, the power-down recovery time, (see Table 34 on  
page 57), must be exhausted before proceeding.  
Set the auto-negotiation advertisement bits.  
Enable auto-negotiation (set MDIO bit 0.12 = 1).  
Note: Do not enable Auto-Negotiation if fiber mode is selected.  
1.8.1.4  
Parallel Detection  
In parallel with auto-negotiation, the LXT9763 also monitors for 10 Mbps Normal Link Pulses  
(NLP) or 100 Mbps Idle symbols. If either is detected, the device automatically reverts to the  
corresponding operating mode. Parallel detection allows the LXT9763 to communicate with  
devices that do not support auto-negotiation.

MII Operation  
Figure 11 is a simple block diagram of the MII data interface. Separate channels are provided for  
transmitting data from the MAC to the LXT9763 (TXD), and for passing data received from the  
line to the MAC (RXD). Each channel has its own clock, data bus, and control signals. Nine signals  
are used to pass received data to the MAC: RXD<3:0>, RX_CLK, RX_DV, RX_ER, COL and  
CRS. Seven signals are used to transmit data from the MAC: TXD<3:0>, TX_CLK, TX_EN, and  
TX_ER. The LXT9763 supplies both transmit and receive clock signals as well as separate outputs  
for carrier sense and collision.  
Data is normally exchanged across the MII in 4-bit-wide nibbles. However, two alternative data  
exchange methods are provided. A 5-bit symbol mode is available via bit 16.11 for 100M  
operation. Refer to Table 47 on page 68 for additional information on these bit settings.

1.9.1  
Transmit Clock  
The LXT9763 is the master clock source for data transmission. It automatically sets the speed of  
TX_CLK to match port conditions. If the port is operating at 100 Mbps, TX_CLK will be set to 25  
MHz. If the port is operating at 10 Mbps, TX_CLK will be set to 2.5 MHz. The transmit data and  
control signals must always be synchronized to TX_CLK by the MAC. The LXT9763 samples  
these signals on the rising edge of TX_CLK.  
1.9.2  
1.9.3  
Transmit Enable  
The MAC must assert TX_EN synchronously with the first nibble of preamble, and de-assert  
TX_EN after the last bit of the packet.  
Receive Data Valid  
The LXT9763 asserts RX_DV when it receives a valid packet. Timing changes depend on line  
operating speed:  
For 100TX links, RX_DV is asserted from the first nibble of preamble to the last nibble of the  
data packet.  
For 10BT links, the entire preamble is truncated. RX_DV is asserted with the first nibble of  
the Start-of-Frame Delimiter (SFD) 5Dand remains asserted until the end of the packet.  
1.9.4  
Error Signals  
Whenever the LXT9763 receives an errored symbol from the network, it asserts RX_ER and drives  
1110on the RXD pins. RX_ER is synchronous with RX_CLK.  
When the MAC asserts TX_ER, the LXT9763 will drive Hsymbols out on the line. TX_ER  
must be synchronous with TX_CLK.  
26  
Datasheet  
Fast Ethernet 10/100 Hex Transceiver with Full MII LXT9763  
1.9.5  
1.9.6  
Carrier Sense  
Carrier sense (CRS) is an asynchronous output. It is always generated when a packet is received  
from the network and in some modes when a packet is transmitted.  
On transmit, CRS is asserted on a 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps half-duplex link. Carrier sense is not  
generated on transmit when the link is operating in full-duplex mode.  
Collision  
The LXT9763 asserts its collision signal, asynchronously to any clock, whenever the line state is  
half-duplex and the transmitter and receiver are active at the same time. Table 8 summarizes the  
conditions for assertion of carrier sense, collision, and data loopback signals.  
1.9.7  
Loopback  
The LXT9763 provides two loopback functions, operational and test (see Table 8).  
1.9.7.1  
Operational Loopback  
Operational loopback is provided for 10 Mbps half-duplex links when bit 16.8 = 0. Data  
transmitted by the MAC (TXData) will be looped back on the receive side of the MII (RXData).  
Operational loopback is not provided for 100 Mbps links, full-duplex links, or when 16.8 = 1.  
1.9.7.2  
Test Loopback  
A test loopback function is provided for diagnostic testing of the LXT9763. During test loopback,  
twisted-pair and fiber interfaces are disabled. Data transmitted by the MAC is internally looped  
back by the LXT9763 and returned to the MAC.  
Test loopback is available for 100TX, 100FX, and 10T operation. Test loopback is enabled by  
setting bit 0.14 = 1, bit 0.8 = 1 (full-duplex), and bit 0.12 = 0 (disable auto-negotiation). Loopback  
paths are shown in Figure 12.

100 Mbps Operation  
1.10.1  
100BASE-X Network Operations  
During 100BASE-X operation, the LXT9763 transmits and receives 5-bit symbols across the  
network link. Figure 13 shows the structure of a standard frame packet. When the MAC is not  
actively transmitting data, the LXT9763 sends out Idle symbols on the line.  
As shown in Figure 13, the MAC starts each transmission with a preamble pattern. As soon as the  
LXT9763 detects the start of preamble, it transmits a J/K Start-of-Stream Delimiter (SSD) symbol  
to the network. It then encodes and transmits the rest of the packet, including the balance of the  
preamble, the Start-of-Frame Delimiter (SFD), packet data, and CRC. Once the packet ends, the  
LXT9763 transmits the T/R End-of-Stream Delimiter (ESD) symbol and then returns to  
transmitting Idle symbols.  
In 100TX mode, the LXT9763 scrambles the data and transmits it to the network using MLT-3 line  
code. The MLT-3 signals received from the network are descrambled and decoded and sent across  
the MII to the MAC. Figure 14 shows the internal signal flow between the MII and the network  
interface.  
In 100FX mode, the LXT9763 transmits and receives NRZI signals across the PECL interface. An  
external 100FX transceiver module is required to complete the fiber connection.

100BASE-X Protocol Sublayer Operations  
With respect to the 7-layer communications model, the LXT9763 is a Physical Layer 1 (PHY)  
device. The LXT9763 implements the Physical Coding Sublayer (PCS), Physical Medium  
Attachment (PMA), and Physical Medium Dependent (PMD) sublayers of the reference model  
defined by the IEEE 802.3u specification. The following paragraphs discuss LXT9763 operation  
from the reference model point of view.  
1.10.2.1  
PCS Sublayer  
The Physical Coding Sublayer (PCS) provides the MII interface, as well as the 4B/5B encoding/  
decoding function. (For symbol mode operation, the 4B/5B function can be bypassed by setting  
16.11 = 1.)  
For 100TX and 100FX operation, the PCS layer provides IDLE symbols to the PMD-layer line  
driver as long as TX_EN is de-asserted.  
Datasheet  
29  
LXT9763 Fast Ethernet 10/100 Hex Transceiver with Full MII  
Preamble Handling  
When the MAC asserts TX_EN, the PCS substitutes a /J/K symbol pair, also known as the Start of  
Stream Delimiter (SSD), for the first two nibbles received across the MII. The PCS layer continues  
to encode the remaining MII data, following Table 9 on page 30, until TX_EN is de-asserted. It  
then returns to supplying IDLE symbols to the line driver.  
In the receive direction, the PCS layer performs the opposite function, substituting two preamble  
nibbles for the SSD.  
Dribble Bits  
The LXT9763 handles dribbles bits in all modes. If between 1-4 dribble bits are received, the  
nibble is passed across the MII, padded with 1s if necessary. If between 5-7 dribble bits are  
received, the second nibble is not sent onto the MII bus

LXT9763 Fast Ethernet 10/100 Hex Transceiver with Full MII  
1.10.2.2  
PMA Sublayer  
Link  
In 100TX and FX modes, the LXT9763 establishes a link whenever the scrambler becomes locked  
and remains locked for approximately 50 ms. Whenever the scrambler loses lock (<12 consecutive  
idle symbols during a 2 ms window), the link will be taken down. This provides a very robust link,  
essentially filtering out any small noise hits that may otherwise disrupt the link.  
The LXT9763 reports link failure via the MII status bits (1.2, 17.10, and 19.4) and interrupt  
functions. If auto-negotiate is enabled, link failure causes the LXT9763 to re-negotiate.  
Link Failure Override  
The LXT9763 normally transmits 100 Mbps data packets or Idle symbols only if the link is up, and  
transmits only FLP bursts if the link is not up. Setting bit 16.14 = 1 overrides this function,  
allowing the LXT9763 to transmit data packets even when the link is down. This feature is  
provided as a diagnostic tool. Note that auto-negotiation must be disabled to transmit data packets  
in the absence of link. If auto-negotiation is enabled, the LXT9763 automatically begins  
transmitting FLP bursts if the link goes down.  
Carrier Sense  
For 100TX and 100FX links, a Start-of-Stream Delimiter (SSD) or /J/K symbol pair causes  
assertion of carrier sense (CRS). An End-of-Stream Delimiter (ESD), or /T/R symbol pair causes  
de-assertion of CRS. The PMA layer also de-asserts CRS if IDLE symbols are received without /  
T/R; however, in this case RX_ER is asserted for one clock cycle when CRS is de-asserted.  
Usage of CRS for Interframe Gap (IFG) timing is not recommended for the following reasons:  
De-assertion time for CRS is slightly longer than assertion time. This causes IFG intervals to  
appear somewhat shorter to the MAC than it actually is on the wire.  
CRS de-assertion is not aligned with TX_EN de-assertion on transmit loopbacks in half-  
duplex mode.  
Receive Data Valid  
The LXT9763 asserts RX_DV to indicate that the received data maps to valid symbols. However,  
RXD outputs zeros until the received data is decoded and available for transfer to the controller.  
1.10.2.3  
Twisted-Pair PMD Sublayer  
The twisted-pair Physical Medium Dependent (PMD) layer provides the signal scrambling and  
descrambling, line coding and decoding (MLT-3 for 100TX, Manchester for 10T), as well as  
receiving, polarity correction, and baseline wander correction functions.  
Scrambler/Descrambler (100TX Only)  
The scrambler spreads the signal power spectrum and further reduces EMI using an 11-bit, non-  
data-dependent polynomial. The receiver automatically decodes the polynomial whenever it  
receives IDLE symbols.  
32  
Datasheet  
Fast Ethernet 10/100 Hex Transceiver with Full MII LXT9763  
The scrambler/descrambler can be bypassed by setting bit 16.12 = 1. The scrambler is  
automatically bypassed when the fiber port is enabled. Scramber bypass is provided for diagnostic  
and test support.  
Baseline Wander Correction (100TX Only)  
The LXT9763 provides a baseline wander correction function, making the device robust under all  
network operating conditions. The MLT3 coding scheme used in 100BASE-TX is by definition  
unbalanced. This means that the DC average value of the signal voltage can wander”  
significantly over short time intervals (tenths of seconds). This wander can cause receiver errors,  
particularly in less robust designs, at long line lengths (100 meters). The exact characteristics of the  
wander are completely data dependent.  
The LXT9763 baseline wander correction characteristics allow the device to recover error-free data  
while receiving worst-case killerpackets over all cable lengths.  
Polarity Correction  
The LXT9763 automatically detects and corrects for the condition where the receive signal (TPIP/  
N) is inverted. Reversed polarity is detected if eight inverted link pulses, or four inverted end-of-  
frame (EOF) markers, are received consecutively. If link pulses or data are not received by the  
maximum receive time-out period, the polarity state is reset to a non-inverted state.  
1.10.2.4  
Fiber PMD Sublayer  
The LXT9763 provides a PECL interface for connection to an external fiber-optic transceiver.  
(The external transceiver provides the PMD function for fiber media.) The LXT9763 uses an  
NRZI format for the fiber interface.  
The fiber interface operates at 100 Mbps and does not support 10FL applications.  
Far End Fault Indications  
The LXT9763 does not provide Signal Detect pins and therefore does not independently detect  
signal faults. However, the device can detect a far end fault code embedded in the received data  
stream and uses bit 1.4 to report far end fault indications received from its link partner. Bit 1.4 is set  
once and clears when read.  
A far end fault condition causes the LXT9763 to drop the link unless Forced Link Pass is selected  
(16.14 = 1). Link down condition is then reported via interrupts and status bits.  
1.11  
10 Mbps Operation  
The LXT9763 can operate as a standard 10BASE-T transceiver, supporting all the standard 10  
Mbps functions. During 10BASE-T (10T) operation, the LXT9763 transmits and receives  
Manchester-encoded data across the network link. When the MAC is not actively transmitting data,  
the LXT9763 drives link pulses onto the line.  
In 10T mode, the polynomial scrambler/descrambler is inactive. Manchester-encoded signals  
received from the network are decoded by the LXT9763 and sent across the MII to the MAC. The  
10M reversed polarity correction function is the same as the 100M function described on page 33.  
Datasheet  
33  
LXT9763 Fast Ethernet 10/100 Hex Transceiver with Full MII  
The LXT9763 does not support fiber connections at 10 Mbps.  
1.11.1  
10T Preamble Handling  
The LXT9763 offers two options for preamble handling, selected by bit 16.5. In 10T Mode when  
16.5 = 0, the LXT9763 strips the entire preamble off of received packets. CRS is asserted  
coincident with SFD. RX_DV is held Low for the duration of the preamble. When RX_DV is  
asserted, the very first two nibbles driven by the LXT9763 are the SFD 5Dhex followed by the  
body of the packet.  
In 10T mode with 16.5 = 1, the LXT9763 passes the preamble through the MII and asserts RX_DV  
and CRS simultaneously. In 10T loopback, the LXT9763 loops back whatever the MAC transmits  
to it, including the preamble.  
1.11.2  
1.11.3  
1.11.4  
10T Carrier Sense  
For 10T links, CRS assertion is based on reception of valid preamble, and de-assertion on reception  
of an end-of-frame (EOF) marker. Bit 16.7 allows CRS de-assertion to be synchronized with  
RX_DV de-assertion. Refer to Table 47 on page 68.  
10T Dribble Bits  
The LXT9763 device handles dribbles bits in all modes. If between 1-4 dribble bits are received,  
the nibble is sent across the MII, padded with 1s if necessary. If between 5-7 dribble bits are  
received, the second nibble is not sent onto the MII bus.  
10T Link Test  
In 10T mode, the LXT9763 always transmit link pulses. If the Link Test function is enabled, it  
monitors the connection for link pulses. Once link pulses are detected, data transmission will be  
enabled and will remain enabled as long as either the link pulses or data transmission continue. If  
the link pulses stop, the data transmission will be disabled.  
If the Link Test function is disabled (Force Link Pass), the LXT9763 will transmit to the  
connection regardless of detected link pulses. The Link Test function can be disabled by setting bit  
16.14 = 1.  
1.11.4.1  
Link Test Failure  
Link Test failure occurs if Link Test is enabled and link pulses or packets stop being received. If  
this condition occurs, the LXT9763 returns to the auto-negotiation phase if auto-negotiation is  
enabled.  
10T Jabber  
If a transmission exceeds the jabber timer, the LXT9763 will disable the transmit and loopback  
functions. See 29 on page 55 for jabber timing parameters.  
The LXT9763 automatically exits jabber mode after the unjab time has expired. This function can  
be disabled by setting bit 16.10 = 1.

Monitoring Operations  
1.12.1  
Monitoring Auto-Negotiation  
Auto-negotiation can be monitored as follows:  
Bit 17.7 is set to 1 once the auto-negotiation process is completed.  
Bits 1.2 and 17.10 are set to 1 once the link is established.  
Additional bits in Register 1 (refer to Table 39 on page 62) and Register 17 (refer to Table 48  
on page 68) can be used to determine the link operating conditions and status.  
1.12.1.1  
Monitoring Next Page Exchange  
The LXT9763 offers an Alternate Next Page mode to simplify the next page exchange process.  
Normally, bit 6.1 (Page Received) remains set until read. When Alternate Next Page mode is  
enabled (16.1 = 1), bit 6.1 is automatically cleared whenever a new negotiation process takes place.  
This prevents the user from reading an old value in 6.1 and assuming that Registers 5 and 8  
(Partner Ability) contain valid information. Additionally, the LXT9763 uses bit 6.5 to indicate  
when the current received page is the base page. This information is useful for recognizing when  
next pages must be resent due to a new negotiation process starting. Bits 6.1 and 6.5 are cleared  
when read.  
1.12.2  
Per-Port LED Driver Functions  
The LXT9763 incorporates three direct drive LEDs per port. On power up all the LEDs will light  
for approximately 1 second after reset de-asserts. Each LED can be programmed to one of several  
different display modes using the LED Configuration Register. Each per-port LED can be  
programmed (refer to Table 51 on page 71) to indicate one the following conditions:  
Operating Speed  
Transmit Activity  
Receive Activity  
Collision Condition  
Link Status  
Duplex Mode  
The LEDs can also be programmed to display various combined status conditions. For example,  
setting bits 20.15:12 = 1101 produces the following combination of Link and Activity indications:  
If Link is down LED is off.  
If Link is up LED is on.  
If Link is up AND activity is detected, the LED will blink at the stretch interval selected by  
bits 20.3:2 and will continue to blink as long as activity is present.  
The LED driver pins are also used to provide initial configuration settings. The LED pins are  
sensitive to polarity and will automatically pull up or pull down to configure for either open drain  
or open source circuits (10mA max current rating) as required by the hardware configuration. Refer  
to the discussion of Hardware Configuration Settingson page 23 for details.

1.12.2.1  
LED Pulse Stretching  
The LED Configuration Register also provides optional LED pulse stretching to 30, 60, or 100 ms.  
If during this pulse stretch period, the event occurs again, the pulse stretch time will be further  
extended.  
When an event such as receiving a packet occurs it will be edge detected and it will start the stretch  
timer. The LED driver will remain asserted until the stretch timer expires. If another event occurs  
before the stretch timer expires then the stretch timer will be reset and the stretch time will be  
extended.  
When a long event (such as duplex status) occurs it will be edge detected and it will start the stretch  
timer. When the stretch timer expires the edge detector will be reset so that a long event will cause  
another pulse to be generated from the edge detector which will reset the stretch timer and cause  
the LED driver to remain asserted. Figure 16 shows how the stretch operation functions.

Boundary Scan (JTAG1149.1) Functions  
LXT9763 includes a IEEE 1149.1 boundary scan test port for board level testing. All digital input,  
output, and input/output pins are accessible.  
1.13.1  
Boundary Scan Interface  
This interface consists of five pins (TMS,TDI,TDO,TCK and TRST). It includes a state machine,  
data register array, and instruction register. The TMS and TDI pins are internally pulled up. TCK is  
internally pulled down. TDO does not have an internal pull-up or pull-down.  
1.13.2  
1.13.3  
State Machine  
The TAP controller is a 16 Bit state machine driven by the TCK and TMS pins. Upon reset the  
TEST_LOGIC_RESET state is entered. The state machine is also reset when TMS is High for five  
TCK periods.  
Instruction Register  
After the state machine resets, the IDCODE instruction is always invoked. The decode logic  
ensures the correct data flow to the Data registers according to the current instruction. Valid  
instructions are listed in Table 11.

Application Information  
2.1  
Design Recommendations  
The LXT9763 is designed to comply with IEEE requirements and to provide outstanding receive  
Bit Error Rate (BER) and long-line-length performance. To achieve maximum performance from  
the LXT9763, attention to detail and good design practices are required. Refer to the LXT9763  
Design and Layout Guide for detailed design and layout information.  
2.1.1  
General Design Guidelines  
Adherence to generally accepted design practices is essential to minimize noise levels on power  
and ground planes. Up to 50 mV of noise is considered acceptable. 50 to 80 mV of noise is  
considered marginal. High-frequency switching noise can be reduced, and its effects can be  
eliminated, by following these simple guidelines throughout the design:  
Fill in unused areas of the signal planes with solid copper and attach them with vias to a VCC  
or ground plane that is not located adjacent to the signal layer.  
Use ample bulk and decoupling capacitors throughout the design (a value of .01 µF is  
recommended for decoupling caps).  
Provide ample power and ground planes.  
Provide termination on all high-speed switching signals and clock lines.  
Provide impedance matching on long traces to prevent reflections.  
Route high-speed signals next to a continuous, unbroken ground plane.  
Filter and shield DC-DC converters, oscillators, etc.  
Do not route any digital signals between the LXT9763 and the RJ-45 connectors at the edge of  
the board.  
Do not extend any circuit power and ground plane past the center of the magnetics or to the  
edge of the board. Use this area for chassis ground, or leave it void.  
2.1.2  
Power Supply Filtering  
Power supply ripple and digital switching noise on the VCC plane can cause EMI problems and  
degrade line performance. The best approach is to minimize ground noise as much as possible  
using good general techniques and by filtering the VCC plane. It is generally difficult to predict in  
advance the performance of any design, although certain factors greatly increase the risk of having  
problems:  
Poorly-regulated or over-burdened power supplies  
Wide data busses (32-bits+) running at a high clock rate  
DC-to-DC converters  
38  
Datasheet  
Fast Ethernet 10/100 Hex Transceiver with Full MII LXT9763  
Intel recommends filtering the power supply to the analog VCC pins of the LXT9763. This has  
two benefits. First, it keeps digital switching noise out of the analog circuitry inside the LXT9763,  
which helps line performance. Second, if the VCC planes are laid out correctly, it keeps digital  
switching noise away from external connectors, reducing EMI problems.  
The recommended implementation is to break the VCC plane into two sections. The digital section  
supplies power to the VCCD and VCCIO pins of the LXT9763. The analog section supplies power  
to the VCCA pins. The break between the two planes should run underneath the device. In  
designs with more than one LXT9763, a single continuous analog VCC plane can be used to supply  
them all.  
The digital and analog VCC planes should be joined at one or more points by ferrite beads. The  
beads should produce at least a 100impedance at 100 MHz. Beads should be placed so that  
current flow is evenly distributed. The maximum current rating of the beads should be at least  
150% of the current that is actually expected to flow through them. A bulk cap (2.2 -10 µF) should  
be place on each side of each bead.  
In addition, a high-frequency bypass cap (.01 µF) should be placed near each analog VCC pin.  
2.1.3  
Power and Ground Plane Layout Considerations  
Great care needs to be taken when laying out the power and ground planes.  
Follow the guidelines in the LXT9761/62/63/81/82 Design & Layout Guide for locating the  
split between the digital and analog VCC planes.  
Keep the digital VCC plane away from the TPFOP/N and TPFIP/N signals, away from the  
magnetics, and away from the RJ45 connectors.  
Place the layers so that the TPFOP/N and TPFIP/N signals can be routed near or next to the  
ground plane. For EMI reasons, it is more important to shield TPFOP/N than TPFIP/N.  
2.1.3.1  
Chassis Ground  
For ESD reasons, it is a good design practice to create a separate chassis ground that encircles the  
board and is isolated via moats and keep-out areas from all circuit-ground planes and active  
signals. Chassis ground should extend from the RJ45 connectors to the magnetics, and can be used  
to terminate unused signal pairs (Bob Smithtermination). In single-point grounding applications,  
provide a single connection between chassis and circuit grounds with a 2 kV isolation capacitor. In  
multi-point grounding schemes (chassis and circuit grounds joined at multiple points), provide  
2 kV isolation to the Bob Smith termination.  
2.1.4  
MII Terminations  
The LXT9763 MII has high output impedance (250 - 350) and normally only requires  
termination on the output signals in designs with long traces (>3 inches). Use series termination  
resistors on all RX_CLK and TX_CLK signals to minimize reflections. Place the resistor as close  
to the device as possible. Use a software trace termination package to select an optimal resistance  
value for the specific trace. If this is not possible, use a 50resistor value.  
Datasheet  
39  
LXT9763 Fast Ethernet 10/100 Hex Transceiver with Full MII  
2.1.5  
2.1.6  
The RBIAS Pin  
The LXT9763 requires a 22.1 kΩ, 1% resistor directly connected between the RBIAS pin and  
ground. Place the RBIAS resistor as close to the RBIAS pin as possible. Run an etch directly from  
the pin to the resistor, and sink the other side of the resistor to a filtered ground. Surround the  
RBIAS trace with a filtered ground; do not run high-speed signals next to RBIAS.  
The Twisted-Pair Interface  
Follow standard guidelines for a twisted-pair interface:  
Place the magnetics as close as possible to the LXT9763.  
Keep transmit pair traces as short as possible; both traces should have the same length.  
Avoid vias and layer changes as much as possible.  
Keep the transmit and receive pairs apart to avoid cross-talk.  
Route the transmit pair adjacent to a ground plane. The optimum arrangement is to place the  
transmit traces two to three layers from the ground plane, with no intervening signals.  
Improve EMI performance by filtering the TPO center tap. A single ferrite bead may be used  
to supply center tap current to all ports. All six ports draw a combined total of 370 mA so the  
bead should be rated at 560 mA.  
2.1.6.1  
Magnetics Information  
The LXT9763 requires a 1:1 ratio for the receive transformers and a 1:1 ratio for the transmit  
transformers. The transformer isolation voltage should be rated at 1.5 kV to protect the circuitry  
from static voltages across the connectors and cables. Refer to Table 13 for transformer  
requirements. Before committing to a specific component, designers should contact the  
manufacturer for current product specifications, and validate the magnetics for the specific  
application.  
2.1.7  
The Fiber Interface  
The fiber interface consists of a PECL transmit and receive pair to an external fiber-optic  
transceiver. The LXT9763 does not provide Signal Detect pins and therefore does not receive or  
transmit fault signals. The transmit and receive pair should be DC-coupled to the transceiver, and  
biased appropriately. Refer to the fiber transceiver manufacturers recommendations for  
termination circuitry. Figure 19 on page 43 shows a typical example.

realized by supplying the center-tap from from a 2.5V current source. In either case a single ferrite bead

1. R/W = Read /Write.  
2. Link status is the primary LED driver. The LED is asserted (solid ON) when the link is up.  
The secondary LED driver (Receive, Activity or Isolate) causes the LED to change state (blink).  
3. Combined event LED settings are not affected by Pulse Stretch bit 20.1. These display settings are stretched regardless of  
the value of 20.1.  
4. Duplex status is the primary LED driver. The LED is asserted (solid ON) when the link is full duplex.  
Collision status is the secondary LED driver. The LED changes state (blinks) when a collision occurs.  
5. Duplex LED maybe active for a brief time after loss of link.
