Auto-Negotiation
If not configured for forced operation, the LXT971A PHY attempts to auto-negotiate with
its link partner by sending Fast Link Pulse (FLP) bursts. Each burst consists of up to 33
link pulses spaced 62.5 μs apart. Odd link pulses (clock pulses) are always present. Even
link pulses (data pulses) may be absent or present to indicate a ‘0’ or a ‘1’. Each FLP burst
exchanges 16 bits of data, which are referred to as a “link code word”. All devices that
support auto-negotiation must implement the “Base Page” defined by the IEEE 802.3
standard (Registers 4 and 5).
The LXT971A PHY also supports the optional “Next Page” function as listed in
Auto-Negotiation Next Page Transmit Register - Address 7, Hex 7, on page 84 and
Table 54, Auto-Negotiation Link Partner Next Page Receive Register - Address 8, Hex 8,
on page 85.
Base Page Exchange
By exchanging Base Pages, the LXT971A PHY and its link partner communicate their
capabilities to each other. Both sides must receive at least three consecutive identical
base pages for negotiation to continue. Each side identifies the highest common
capabilities that both sides support, and each side configures itself accordingly.
