PHY/MAC Interface
The internal MII-compatible interface provides the data
path connection between the 10/100 PHY and 10/100
Media Access Control (MAC). The interface is compat-
ible with Clause 22 of the IEEE 802.3 standard specifi-
cation.
Transmit Process
The transmit process generates code-groups based on
TXD[3:0], TX_EN, TX_ER signals on the internal MII.
These code-groups are transmitted by the PDX block.
This process is also responsible for frame encapsula-
tion into a Physical Layer Stream, generating the colli-
sion signal based on whether a carrier is received
simultaneously with transmission and generating the
Carrier Sense (CRS) and Collision (COL) signals at the
internal MII. The transmit process is implemented in
compliance with the transmit state diagram as defined
in Clause 24 of the IEEE 802.3u specification. Figure
38 shows the transmit process.
Receive Process
The receive process passes to the internal MII a se-
quence of data nibbles derived from the incoming

code-groups. Each code-group is comprised of five
code-bits. This process detects channel activity and
then aligns the incoming code bits in code-group
boundaries for subsequent data decoding. The receive
process is responsible for code-group alignment and
also generates the Carrier Sense (CRS) signal at the
internal MII. The receive process is implemented in
compliance with the receive state diagram as defined in
Clause 24 of the IEEE 802.3u specification. The False
Carrier Indication as specified in the standard is also
generated by this block, and communicated to the Rec-
onciliation layer. Figure 38 shows the receive process.
Internal PHY Loopback Path
As shown in Figure 35, the 10/100 PHY provides an
internal loopback path for system testing purposes.
The loopback option utilizes the serial loopback path
from the PDX serial output to the PDX serial input and
can be programmed via the LBK[1:0] bits in the PHY
Control/Status Register (ANR17).
For the corresponding LBK setting, refer to the descrip-
tion for the PHY Control/Status Register.
