KS8999 Micrel KS8999 Integrated 9-Port 10/100 Switch with PHY and Frame Buffer Rev. 1.14 KS8999 is designed to reside in an unmanaged design not requiring processor intervention. This is achieved through I/O strapping or EEPROM programming at system reset time.On the media side, the KS8999 supports 10BaseT, 100BaseTX and 100BaseFX as specified by the IEEE 802.3 committee. Physical signal transmission and reception are enhanced through use of analog circuitry that makes the design more efficient and allows for lower power consumption and smaller chip die size. Data sheets and support documentation can be found on Micrel's web site at www.micrel.com. General Description The KS8999 contains eight 10/100 physical layer transceivers, nine MAC (Media Access Control) units with an integrated layer 2 switch. The device runs in two modes. The first mode is an eight port integrated switch and the second is as a nine port switch with the ninth port available through an MII (Media Independent Interface). Useful configurations include a stand alone eight port switch as well as a eight port switch with a routing element connected to the extra MII port. The additional port is also useful for a public network interfacing.The Functional Diagram Look Up Engine (1K Entries) Queue Priority Management SRAM Buffers Buffer Management FIFO, Flow Control, VLAN and Priority M A C M A C M A C 1 2 3 P H Y P H Y P H Y 1 2 3 M A C M A C M A C M A C M A C M A C 4 5 6 7 8 9 P H Y P H Y P H Y P H Y P H Y 4 5 6 7 8 M I I MII / SNI (exclusive) External Interface EEPROM / Processor Interface SCL SDA LED and Programming Interface LED[1][3:0] LED[2][3:0] LED[3][3:0] LED[4][3:0] LED[5][3:0] LED[6][3:0] LED[7][3:0] LED[8][3:0] LED[9][3:0] MRXD[3:0] MRXDV MCOL MCRS MTXD[3:0] MTXEN MTXER MTXC MRXC MRXD[0] MRXDV MCOL S N I MTXD[0] MTXEN MTXC MRXC Micrel, Inc. * 2180 Fortune Drive * San Jose, CA 95131 * USA * tel + 1 (408) 944-0800 * fax + 1 (408) 474-1000 * http://www.micrel.com January 2005 1 KS8999 KS8999 Micrel Features Ordering Information * 9 port (8+1) 10/100 integrated switch with eight physical layer transceivers and one MII/SNI interface * Advanced Ethernet Switch with internal frame buffer - 128K Byte of SRAM on chip for frame buffering - 2.0Gbps high performance memory bandwidth - Wire speed reception and transmission - Integrated address look-up engine, supports 1K absolute MAC addresses - Automatic address learning, address aging and address migration * Advanced Switch Features - Supports 802.1p priority and port based priority - Supports port based VLAN - Supports 1536 byte frame for VLAN tag - Supports DiffServ priority, 802.1p based priority or port based priorityo broadcast storm protection * Proven transceiver technology for UTP and fiber operation - 10BaseT, 100BaseTX and 100BaseFX modes of operation - Supports for UTP or fiber on all 8-ports - Indicators for link, activity, full/half-duplex and speed - Hardware based 10/100, full/half, flow control and auto-negotiation - Individual port forced modes (full duplex, 100BaseTX) when auto-negotiation is disabled - Full duplex IEEE 802.3x flow control - Half-duplex back pressure flow control * Supports MDI/MDI-X auto crossover * External MAC interface (MII or 7-wire) for router applications * Unmanaged operation via strapping or EEPROM at system reset time (see Reset Reference Circuit section) * Comprehensive LED support * Single 2.0V power supply with options for 2.5V and 3.3V I/O * 900 mA (1.80W) including physical transmit drivers * Supports both commercial and industry temperature - Commercial temperature range: 0C to +70C (KS8999) - Industrial temperature range: -40C to +85C (KS8999I) * Supports lead free products: - Commercial temperature range: 0C to +70C (KSZ8999) - Industrial temperature range: -40C to +85C (KSZ8999I) * Available in 208-pin PQFP package KS8999 Part Number 2 Temperature Range Package KS8999 0C to +70C 208-Pin PQFP KS8999I -40C to +85C 208-Pin PQFP KSZ8999 0C to +70C 208-Pin PQFP KSZ8999I -40C to +85C 208-Pin PQFP January 2005 KS8999 Micrel Revision History Revision Date Summary of Changes 1.00 11/27/00 Preliminary Release 1.01 03/30/01 Update maximum frame size Update EEPROM priority descriptions Update I/O pin definitionUpdate I/O descriptions Update Electrical Characteristics 1.02 04/20/01 Correct timing information 1.03 05/11/01 Add MDI/MDI-X description 1.04 06/22/01 Change electrical requirements 1.05 0/6/25/01 Correct I/O descriptions 1.06 07/25/01 Update PLL clock information Update timing information 1.07 08/09/01 Correct LED[6][1:0] to float configuration Add reverse and forward timing Correct optional CPU timing 1.08 1/14/02 Update Optional CPU interface Correct I/O description for MCOL and MCRS Correct pin 174 and 175 description 1.09 6/18/02 Correct default to floating for pin 174 Change pin 87 TEST[3] to AUTOMDIX for enable/disable of auto MDI-MDIX function 1.10 2/27/03 Add KS8999I industrial temperature Update non-periodic blinking in Mode 1 of LED[1:9][0] Add MRXD[0] description 1.11 5/12/03 Changed Vcc from 2.00 to 2.10 (typical) Added FEF disable to T[4] pin #173 1.12 8/29/03 Convert to new format. 1.13 1/19/05 Correct pin type description.

The circuit starts with a parallel to serial conversion, which converts the data from the MAC into a 125MHz serial bit stream. The data and control stream is then converted into 4B/5B coding followed by a scrambler. The serialized data is further converted from NRZ to NRZI format, then transmitted in MLT3 current output. The output current is set by an external 1% 3.01k resistor for the 1:1 transformer ratio. It has a typical rise/fall time of 4 ns and complies to the ANSI TP-PMD standard regarding amplitude balance, overshoot and timing jitters. The waveshaped 10BaseT output is also incorporated into the 100BaseTX transmitter. 100BaseTX Receive The 100BaseTX receiver function performs adaptive equalization, DC restoration, MLT3 to NRZI conversion, data and clock recovery, NRZI to NRZ conversion, de-scrambling, 4B/5B decoding and serial to parallel conversion. The receiving side starts with the equalization filter to compensate inter-symbol interference (ISI) over the twisted pair cable. Since the amplitude loss and phase distortion is a function of the length of the cable, the equalizer has to adjust its characteristics to optimize the performance. This is an ongoing process and can self adjust to the environmental changes such as temperature variations. The equalized signal then goes through a DC restoration and data conversion block. The DC restoration circuit is used to compensate for the effect of base line wander and improve the dynamic range. The differential data conversion circuit converts the MLT3 format back to NRZI. The slicing threshold is also adaptive. The clock recovery circuit extracts the 125MHz clock from the edges of the NRZI signal. This recovered clock is then used to convert the NRZI signal into the NRZ format. The signal is then sent through the de-scrambler followed by the 4B/5B decoder. Finally, the NRZ serial data is provided as the input data to the MAC. PLL Clock Synthesizer The KS8999 generates 125MHz, 62.5MHz, 25MHz and 10MHz clocks for system timing. Internal clocks are generated from an external 25MHz crystal. Scrambler/De-scrambler (100BaseTX only) The purpose of the scrambler is to spread the power spectrum of the signal in order to reduce EMI and baseline wander. The data is scrambled by the use of an 11-bit wide linear feedback shift register (LFSR). This can generate a 2047-bit non-repetitive sequence. The receiver will then de-scramble the incoming data stream with the same sequence at the transmitter. 100BaseFX Operation 100BaseFX operation is very similar to 100BaseTX operation with the differences being that the scrambler/de-scrambler and MLT3 encoder/decoder are bypassed on transmission and reception. In this mode the auto-negotiation feature is bypassed since there is no standard that supports fiber auto-negotiation. 100BaseFX Signal Detection The physical port runs in 100BaseFX mode if FXSDx >0.6V. FXSDx is considered `low' when 0.6V1.25V. If FXSDx goes into `low' state, the link is considered lost and the link active LED will go off. For FXSDx in the high state, the link is considered active. When FXSDx is below .6V then 100BaseFX mode is disabled. (see application note for detailed information). 100BaseFX Far End Fault Far end fault occurs when the signal detection is logically false from the receive fiber module which occurs when FXSDx is below 1.2V and above 0.6V. When this occurs, the transmission side signals the other end of the link by sending 84 1's followed by a zero in the idle period between frames. 10BaseT Transmit The output 10BaseT driver is incorporated into the 100BaseT driver to allow transmission with the same magnetics. They are internally wave-shaped and pre-emphasized into outputs with a typical 2.3V amplitude. 10BaseT Receive On the receive side, input buffer and level detecting squelch circuits are employed. A differential input receiver circuit and a PLL perform the decoding function. The Manchester-encoded data stream is separated into clock signal and NRZ data. A squelch circuit rejects signals with levels less than 400mV or with short pulse widths in order to prevent noises at the RXP or RXM input from falsely triggering the decoder. When the input exceeds the squelch limit, the PLL locks onto the incoming signal and the KS8999 decodes a data frame. The receiver clock is maintained active during idle periods in between data reception. KS8999 20 January 2005 KS8999 Micrel Power Management Power Save Mode The KS8999 will turn off everything except for the Energy Detect and PLL circuits when the cable is not installed on an individual port basis. In other words, the KS8999 will shutdown most of the internal circuits to save power if there is no link. MDI/MDI-X Auto Crossover The KS8999 supports MDI/MDI-X auto crossover. This facilitates the use of either a straight connection CAT-5 cable or a crossover CAT-5 cable. The auto-sense function will detect remote transmit and receive pairs, and correctly assign the transmit and receive pairs from the Micrel device. This can be highly useful when end users are unaware of cable types and can also save on an additional uplink configuration connection. The auto MDI/MDI-X is achieved by the Micrel device listening for the far end transmission channel and assigning transmit/ receive pairs accordingly. Auto MDI/MDI-X can be disabled by pulling the pin 87 (AUTOMDIX) to low. Auto-Negotiation The KS8999 conforms to the auto-negotiation protocol as described by the 802.3 committee. Auto-negotiation allows UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) link partners to select the best common mode of operation. In auto-negotiation the link partners advertise capabilities across the link to each other. If auto-negotiation is not supported or the link partner to the KS8999 is forced to bypass auto-negotiation , then the mode is set by observing the signal at the receiver. This is known as parallel mode because while the transmitter is sending auto-negotiation advertisements, the receiver is listening for advertisements or a fixed signal protocol. The flow for the link set up is depicted below.

It contains 1K full CAM with 48-bit address plus switching information. The KS8999 is guaranteed to learn 1K addresses and distinguishes itself from hash-based lookup tables which, depending on the operating environment and probabilities, may not guarantee the absolute number of addresses it can learn. Learning The internal look-up engine will update its table with a new entry if the following conditions are met: * The received packet's SA does not exist in the look-up table. * The received packet is good; the packet has no receiving errors, and is of legal length. The look-up engine will insert the qualified SA into the table, along with the port number, time stamp. If the table is full, the last entry of the table will be deleted first to make room for the new entry. Migration The internal look-up engine also monitors whether a station is moved. If it happens, it will update the table accordingly. Migration happens when the following conditions are met: * The received packet's SA is in the table but the associated source port information is different. * The received packet is good; the packet has no receiving errors, and is of legal length. The look-up engine will update the existing record in the table with the new source port information. Aging The look-up engine will update time stamp information of a record whenever the corresponding SA appears. The time stamp is used in the aging process. If a record is not updated for a period of time, the look-up engine will then remove the record from the table. The look-up engine constantly performs the aging process and will continuously remove aging records. The aging period is 300 seconds. This feature can be enabled or disabled by external pull-up or pull-down resistors. Forwarding The KS8999 will forward packets as follows: * If the DA look-up results is a "match", the KS8999 will use the destination port information to determine where the packet goes. * If the DA look-up result is a "miss", the KS8999 will forward the packet to all other ports except the port that received the packet. * All the multicast and broadcast packets will be forwarded to all other ports except the source port. The KS8999 will not forward the following packets: * Error packets. These include framing errors, FCS errors, alignment errors, and illegal size packet errors. * 802.3x pause frames. The KS8999 will intercept these packets and do the appropriate actions. * "Local" packets. Based on destination address (DA) look-up. If the destination port from the look-up table matches the port where the packet was from, the packet is defined as "local". Switching Engine The KS8999 has a very high performance switching engine to move data to and from the MAC's, packet buffers. It operates in store and forward mode, while the efficient switching mechanism reduces overall latency. The KS8999 has an internal buffer for frames that is 32Kx32 (128KB). This resource could be shared between the nine ports and is programmed at system reset time by using the unmanaged program mode (I/O strapping). Each buffer is sized at 128B and therefore there are a total of 1024 buffers available. Two different modes are available for buffer allocation. One mode equally allocates the buffers to all the ports (113 buffers per port). The other mode adaptively allocates buffers up to 512 to a single port based on loading. Selection is achieved by using LED[7][1] in the unmanaged programming description. MAC Operation The KS8999 strictly abides by IEEE 802.3 standard to maximize compatibility. Inter Packet Gap (IPG) If a frame is successfully transmitted, the 96 bit time IPG is measured between the two consecutive MTXEN. If the current packet is experiencing collision, the 96 bit time IPG is measured from MCRS and the next MTXEN. KS8999 22 January 2005 KS8999 Micrel Backoff Algorithm The KS8999 implements the IEEE Std 802.3 binary exponential back-off algorithm, and optional "aggressive mode" back off. After 16 collisions, the packet will be optionally dropped depending on the chip configuration. Late Collision If a transmit packet experiences collisions after 512 bit times of the transmission, the packet will be dropped. Illegal Frames The KS8999 discards frames less than 64 bytes and can be programmed to accept frames up to 1536 bytes. Since the KS8999 supports VLAN tags, the maximum sizing is adjusted when these tags are present. Flow Control The KS8999 supports standard 802.3x flow control frames on both transmit and receive sides. On the receive side, if the KS8999 receives a pause control frame, the KS8999 will not transmit the next normal frame until the timer, specified in the pause control frame, expires. If another pause frame is received before the current timer expires, the timer will be updated with the new value in the second pause frame. During this period (being flow controlled), only flow control packets from the KS8999 will be transmitted. On the transmit side, the KS8999 has intelligent and efficient ways to determine when to invoke flow control. The flow control is based on availability of the system resources, including available buffers, available transmit queues and available receive queues. The KS8999 will flow control a port, which just received a packet, if the destination port resource is being used up. The KS8999 will issue a flow control frame (XOFF), containing the maximum pause time defined in IEEE standard 802.3x. Once the resource is freed up, the KS8999 will send out the other flow control frame (XON) with zero pause time to turn off the flow control (turn on transmission to the port). A hysteresis feature is provided to prevent flow control mechanism from being activated and deactivated too many times. The KS8999 will flow control all ports if the receive queue becomes full. Half Duplex Back Pressure Half duplex back pressure option (Note: not in 802.3 standards) is also provided. The activation and deactivation conditions are the same as the above in full duplex mode. If back pressure is required, the KS8999 will send preambles to defer other stations' transmission (carrier sense deference). To avoid jabber and excessive deference defined in 802.3 standard, after a certain time it will discontinue the carrier sense but it will raise the carrier sense quickly. This short silent time (no carrier sense) is to prevent other stations from sending out packets and keeps other stations in carrier sense deferred state. If the port has packets to send during a back pressure situation, the carrier sense type back pressure will be interrupted and those packets will be transmitted instead. If there are no more packets to send, carrier sense type back pressure will be active again until switch resources free up. If a collision occurs, the binary exponential back-off algorithm is skipped and carrier sense is generated immediately, reducing the chance of further colliding and maintaining carrier sense to prevent reception of packets. Broadcast Storm Protection The KS8999 has an intelligent option to protect the switch system from receiving too many broadcast packets. Broadcast packets will be forwarded to all ports except the source port, and thus will use too many switch resources (bandwidth and available space in transmit queues). The KS8999 will discard broadcast packets if the number of those packets exceeds the threshold (configured by strapping during reset and EEPROM settings) in a preset period of time. If the preset period expires it will then resume receiving broadcast packets until the threshold is reached. The options are 5% of network line rate for the maximum broadcast receiving threshold or unlimited (feature off). January 2005 23 KS8999 KS8999 Micrel MII Interface Operation The MII (Media Independent Interface) operates in either a MAC or PHY mode. In the MAC mode, the KS8999 MII acts like a MAC and in the PHY mode, it acts like a PHY device. This interface is specified by the IEEE 802.3 committee and provides a common interface between physical layer and MAC layer devices. There are two distinct groups, one being for transmission and the other for receiving. The table below describes the signals used in this interface in MAC and PHY modes. PHY Mode Connection MAC Mode Connection External MAC Controller Signals KS8999 PHY Signals Description External PHY Signals KS8999 MAC Signals MTXEN MTXEN Transmit enable MTXEN MRXDV MTXER MTXER Transmit error MTXER Not used MTXD3 MTXD[3] Transmit data bit 3 MTXD3 MRXD[3] MTXD2 MTXD[2] Transmit data bit 2 MTXD2 MRXD[2] MTXD1 MTXD[1] Transmit data bit 1 MTXD1 MRXD[1] MTXD0 MTXD[0] Transmit data bit 0 MTXD0 MRXD[0] MTXC MTXC Transmit clock MTXC MTXC MCOL MCOL Collision detection MCOL MCOL MCRS MCRS Carrier sense MCRS MCRS MRXDV MRXDV Receive data valid MRXDV SMTXEN MRXER Not used Receive error MRXER MTXER MRXD3 MRXD[3] Receive data bit 3 MRXD3 MTXD[3] MRXD2 MRXD[2] Receive data bit 2 MRXD2 MTXD[2] MRXD1 MRXD[1] Receive data bit 1 MRXD1 MTXD[1] MRXD0 MRXD[0] Receive data bit 0 MRXD0 MTXD[0] MRXC MRXC Receive clock MRXC MRXC Table 1. MII Signals This interface is a nibble wide data interface and therefore runs at _ the network bit rate (not encoded). Additional signals on the transmit side indicate when data is valid or when an error occurs during transmission. Likewise, the receive side has indicators that convey when the data is valid and without physical layer errors. For half-duplex operation there is a signal that indicates a collision has occurred during transmission. KS8999 24 January 2005 KS8999 Micrel Note that the signal MRXER is not provided on the MII interface for the KS8999 for PHY mode operation and MTXER is not represented for MAC mode. Normally this would indicate a receive / transmit error coming from the physical layer /MAC device, but is not appropriate for this configuration. If the connecting device has a MRXER pin, this should be tied low on the other device for reverse or if it has a MTXER pin in the forward mode it should also be tied low on the other device. The following explains the KS8999 in PHY mode and MAC mode of operation: KS8999 PHY Mode MTXC External MAC Controller MTXD[3:0] MTXEN KS8999 In PHY mode MTXER Figure 3.

KS8999 acts like a PHY device to external controllers. This interface can be directly connected to these types of devices. The signals are divided into two groups, one being for transmission and the other being the receive side. The signals involved are described in the table below. SNI Signal Description KS8999 SNI Signal KS8999 Input/Output TXEN Transmit enable MTXEN Input TXD Serial transmit data MTXD[0] Input TXC Transmit clock MTXC Output COL Collision detection MCOL Output CRS Carrier sense MRXDV Output RXD Serial receive data MRXD[0] Output RXC Receive clock MRXC Output Table 2. SNI Signals This interface is a bit wide data interface and therefore runs at the network bit rate (not encoded). An additional signal on the transmit side indicates when data is valid. Likewise, the receive side has an indicator that conveys when the data is valid. For half-duplex operation there is a signal that indicate a collision has occurred during transmission. Programmable Features Priority Schemes The KS8999 can determine priority through three different means at the ingress point. The first method is a simple per port method, the second is via the 802.1p frame tag and the third is by viewing the DSCP (TOS) field in the IPv4 header. Of course for the priority to be effective, the high and low priority queues must be enabled on the destination port or egress point. Per Port Method General priority can be specified on a per port basis. In this type of priority all traffic from the specified input port is considered high priority in the destination queue. This can be useful in IP phone applications mixed with other data types of traffic where the IP phone connects to a specific port. The IP phone traffic would be high priority (outbound) to the wide area network. The inbound traffic to the IP phone is all of the same priority to the IP phone. 802.1p Method This method works well when used with ports that have mixed data and media flows. The inbound port examines the priority field in the tag and determines the high or low priority. Priority profiles are setup in the Priority Classification Control in the EEPROM. IPv4 DSCP Method This is another per frame way of determining outbound priority. The DSCP (Differentiated Services Code Point - RFC#2474) method uses the TOS field in the IP header to determine high and low priority on a per code point basis. Each fully decoded code point can have either a high or low priority. A larger spectrum of priority flows can be defined with this larger code space. More specific to implementation, the most significant 6 bits of the TOS field are fully decoded into 64 possibilities, and the singular code that results is compared against the corresponding bit in the DSCP register. If the register bit is a 1, the priority is high and if 0, the priority is low. Other Priority Considerations When setting up the priority scheme, one should consider other available controls to regulate the traffic. One of these is Priority Control Scheme (register 2 bits 2-3) which controls the interleaving of high and low priority frames. Options allow from a 2:1 ratio up to a setting that sends all the high priority first. This setting controls all ports globally. Another global feature is Priority Buffer Reserve (register 2 bit 1). If this is set, there is a 6KB (10%) buffer dedicated to high priority traffic, otherwise if cleared the buffer is shared between all traffic. On an individual port basis there are controls that enable DSCP, 802.1p, port based and high/low priority queues. These are contained in registers 4-12 bits 5-3 and 0. It should be noted that there is a special pin that generally enables the 802.1p priority for all ports (pin 91). When this pin is active (high) all ports will have the 802.1p priority enabled unless specifically disabled by EEPROM programming (bit 4 of registers 4-12). Default high priority is a value greater than 4 in the VLAN tag with low priority being 3 or less. KS8999 26 January 2005 KS8999 Micrel The table below briefly summarizes priority features. For more detailed settings see the EEPROM register description. Register(s) Bit(s) Global/Port Description General 2 3-2 Global Priority Control Scheme: Transmit buffer high/low interleave control 2 1 Global Priority Buffer Reserve: Reserves 6KB of the buffer for high priority traffic 4-12 0 Port Enable Port Queue Split: Splits the transmit queue on the desired port for high and low priority traffic DSCP Priority 4-12 5 Port Enable Port DSCP: Looks at DSCP field in IP header to decide high or low priority 40-47 7-0 Global DSCP Priority Points: Fully decoded 64 bit register used to determine priority from DSCP field (6 bits) in the IP header 802.1p Priority 4-12 4 Port Enable Port 802.1p Priority: Uses the 802.1p priority tag (3 bits) to determine frame priority 3 7-0 Global Priority Classification: Determines which tag values have high priority Per Port Priority 4-12 3 Port Enable Port Priority: Determines which ports have high or low priority traffic Table 3. Priority Control VLAN Operation The VLAN's are setup by programming the VLAN Mask Registers in the EEPROM. The perspective of the VLAN is from the input port and which output ports it sees directly through the switch. For example if port 1 only participated in a VLAN with ports 2 and 9 then one would set bits 0 and 7 in register 13 (Port 1 VLAN Mask Register). Note that different ports can be setup independently. An example of this would be where a router is connected to port 9 and each of the other ports would work autonomously. In this configuration ports 1 through 8 would only set the mask for port 9 and port 9 would set the mask for ports1 through 8. In this way, the router could see all ports and each of the other individual ports would only communicate with the router. All multicast and broadcast frames adhere to the VLAN configuration. Unicast frame treatment is a function of register 2 bit 0. If this bit is set then unicast frames only see ports within their VLAN. If this bit is cleared unicast frames can traverse VLAN's. VLAN tags can be added or removed on a per port basis. Further, there are provisions to specify the tag value to be inserted on a per port basis. The table below briefly summarizes VLAN features. For more detailed settings see the EEPROM register description. Register(s) Bit(s) Global/Port Description 4-12 2 Port Insert VLAN Tags: If specified, will add VLAN tags to frames without existing tags 4-12 1 Port Strip VLAN Tags: If specified, will remove VLAN tags from frames if they exist 2 0 Global VLAN Enforcement: Allows unicast frames to adhere or ignore the VLAN configuration 13-21 7-0 Port VLAN Mask Registers: Allows configuration of individual VLAN grouping. 22-39 7-0 Port VLAN Tag Insertion Values: Specifies the VLAN tag to be inserted if enabled (see above) Table 4. VLAN Control Station MAC Address (control frames only) The MAC source address can be programmed as used in flow control frames. The table below briefly summarizes this programmable feature. Register(s) Bit(s) Global/Port Description 48-53 7-0 Global Station MAC Address: Used as source address for MAC control frames as used in full duplex flow control mechanisms. Table 5. Misc. Control January 2005 27 KS8999 KS8999 Micrel EEPROM Operation The EEPROM interface utilizes 2 pins that provide a clock and a serial data path. As part of the initialization sequence, the KS8999 reads the contents of the EEPROM and loads the values into the appropriate registers. Note that the first two bytes in the EEPROM must be "55" and "99" respectively for the loading to occur properly. If these first two values are not correct, all other data will be ignored. Data start and stop conditions are signaled on the data line as a state transition during clock high time. A high to low transition indicates start of data and a low to high transition indicates a stop condition. The actual data that traverses the serial line changes during the clock low time. The KS8999 EEPROM interface is compatible with the Atmel AT24C01A part. Address A0, A1 and A2 are fixed to 000. Further timing and data sequences can be found in the Atmel AT24C01A specification. Optional CPU Interface Instead of using an EEPROM to program the KS8999, one can use an external processor. To utilize this feature, the CFGMODE pin (only available on the 208 pin package) needs to pulled low. This makes the KS8999 serial and clock interface into a slave rather than a master. In this mode, clock and data are sourced from the processor. Due to timing constraints, the maximum clock speed that the processor can generate is 8MHz. Data timing is referenced to the rising edge of the clock and are 10ns for setup and 60ns for hold. The processor needs to supply the exact number of clock cycles and data bits to program the KS8999 properly. KS8999 won't start until all of the registers are programmed. Bits are loaded from high order (bit 7) to low order (bit 0) starting with register 0 and finishing with register 53.

For the application where the reset circuit signal comes from another device (e.g., CPU, FPGA, etc), we recommend the reset circuit as shown in Figure 21.

Recommended Circuit for Interfacing with CPU/FPGA Reset At power-on-reset, R, C, and D1 provide the necessary ramp rise time to reset the KS8999 device. The reset out from CPU/ FPGA provides warm reset after power up. It is also recommended to power up the VDD core voltage earlier than VDDIO voltage. At worst case, the both VDD core and VDDIO voltages should come up at the same time. KS8999 48 January 2005 KS8999 Micrel 4B/5B Coding In 100BaseTX and 100BaseFX the data and frame control are encoded in the transmitter (and decoded in the receiver) using a 4B/5B code. The extra code space is required to encode extra control (frame delineation) points. It is also used to reduce run length as well as supply sufficient transitions for clock recovery. The table below provides the translation for the 4B/5B coding.

The net result of using MLT3 is to reduce the EMI (Electro Magnetic Interference) of the signal over twisted pair media. In NRZI coding, the level changes from high to low or low to high for every "1" bit. For a "0" bit there is no transition. MLT3 line coding transitions through three distinct levels. For every transition of the NRZI signal the MLT3 signal either increments or decrements depending on the current state of the signal. For instance if the MLT3 level is at its lowest point the next two NRZI transitions will change the MLT3 signal initially to the middle level followed by the highest level (second NRZI transition). On the next NRZI change, the MLT3 level will decrease to the middle level. On the following transition of the NRZI signal the MLT3 level will move to the lowest level where the cycle repeats. The diagram below describes the level changes. Note that in the actual 100BaseTX circuit there is a scrambling circuit and that scrambling is not shown in this diagram.

An isolation transformer with integrated common-mode choke is recommended for exceeding FCC requirements. The following table gives recommended transformer characteristics. Characteristics Name Value Turns Ratio 1 CT : 1 CT Open-Circuit Inductance (min.) 350H 100mV, 100 KHz, 8mA Leakage Inductance (max.) 0.4H 1MHz (min.) Inter-Winding Capacitance (max.) 12pF D.C. Resistance (max.) 0.9 Insertion Loss (max.) 1.0dB HIPOT (min.) 1500Vrms Note 1. Test Condition 0MHz to 65MHz The IEEE 802.3u standard for 100BaseTX assumes a transformer loss of 0.5dB. For the transmit line transformer, insertion loss of up to 1.3dB can be compensated by increasing the line drive current by means of reducing the ISET resistor value. Selection of Reference Oscillator/Crystal An oscillator or crystal with the following typical characteristics is recommended.
