MLT3 Coding
For 100BaseTX operation the NRZI (Non-Return to Zero Invert on ones) signal is line coded as MLT3. 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.
The MAC (Media Access Control) fields are described in the table below.
