PCI bus Interface
113 INTA# O/D PCI interrupt request. STE10/100A asserts this signal when one of the interrupt
event is set.
114 RST# I PCI Reset signal to initialize the STE10/100A. The RST signal should be
asserted for at least 100µs to ensure that the STE10/100A completes
initialization. During the reset period, all the output pins of STE10/100A will be
placed in a high-impedance state and all the O/D pins are floated.
116 PCI-CLK I PCI clock input to STE10/100A for PCI Bus functions. The Bus signals are
synchronized relative to the rising edge of PCI-CLK PCI-CLK must operate at a
frequency in the range between 20MHz and 33MHz to ensure proper network
operation
117 GNT# I PCI Bus Granted. This signal indicates that the STE10/100A has been granted
ownership of the PCI Bus as a result of a Bus Request.
118 REQ# O PCI Bus Request. STE10/100A asserts this line when it needs access to the PCI
Bus.
119 PME# O
OD The Power Management Event signal is an open drain, active low signal. The
STE10/100A will assert PME# to indicate that a power management event has
occurred.
When WOL (bit 18 of CSR18) is set, the STE10/100A is placed in Wake On LAN
mode. While in this mode, the STE10/100A will activate the PME# signal upon
receipt of a Magic Packet frame from the network.
In the Wake On LAN mode, when LWS (bit 17 of CSR18) is set, the LAN-WAKE
signal follows HP’s protocol; otherwise, it is IBM protocol.

5.0 REGISTERS AND DESCRIPTORS DESCRIPTION
There are three kinds of registers within the STE10/100A: STE10/100A configuration registers, PCI control/sta-
tus registers, and Transceiver control/status registers.
The STE10/100A configuration registers are used to initialize and configure the STE10/100A and for identifying
and querying the STE10/100A.
The PCI control /status registers are used t o communicate bet ween the host and STE10/100A. The host can
initialize, control, and read the status of the STE10/100A through mapped I/O or memory address space.
The STE10/100A contains 11 16-bit registers to supported Transceiver control and status. They include 7 basi c
registers which are defined according to clause 22 “Reconciliation Sub-layer and Media Independent Interface”
and clause 28 “Physical Layer link signaling for 10 Mb/s and 100 Mb/s Auto-Negotiation on twisted pair” of the
IEEE802.3u standard. In addition, 4 special registers are provided for advanced chip control and status.
The STE10/100A also provides receive and transmit descriptors for packet buffering and management.
5.1 STE10/100A Configuration Registers
An STE10/100A soft ware dri ver c an i ni tial i ze and c onfi gure t he chip by writi ng i t s conf i gurat i on regi st ers. The
contents of configuration registers are set to their default values upon power-up or w henever a hardw are reset
occurs, but their settings remain unchanged whenever a software reset occurs. The configuratio n registers are
byte, word, and double word accessible.

6.2 Network Packet Buffer Management
6.2.1 Descrip tor Stru ctur e Type s
During normal network transmit operations, the STE10/100A transfers the data packets from transmit buffers in
the host’s memory to the ST E 10/100A’s transmit FIFO. For rec eive operations, the STE 10/100A transfers the
data packet from its receive FIFO to receive buffers in the h ost’s memory. The STE10/100A make s use of de-
scriptors, data structures which are built in host memory and contain pointers to the transmit and receive buffers
and maintain packet and frame parameters, status, and other information vital to controlling network operation.
There are two types of s truc tures employed to group descr iptors, the
Ring
and
the
Chain
, both support ed by
the STE10/100A and shown below. The sel ecti on of struct ure type is contr olled by RCH (RDES1 bit 24) and
TC H (TDE S1 bit 24).
The transmit and receive buffers reside in the host’s memory. Any buffer can contain either a complete or partial
packet. A buffer may not contain more than one packet.
Ring structure: There are two buffers per descriptor i n the ring structure. Support receive early interrupt .

6.5 Network Operation
6.5.1 MAC Operation
The MAC (Media Access Control) portion of STE10/100A incorporates the essential protocol requi rements for
operating as an IEEE802.3 and Ethernet compliant node.
Format
*No te : I f padd i ng i s disabled (TDE S1 bit 23), the dat a fiel d m ay be sh orter than 46 bytes.
Transmit Data Encapsulation
The differences between transmit data encapsulation and a MAC frame while operating in 100BASE-
TX mode are listed as follows:
1. The first byte of the preamble is replaced by the JK code according to IEE802.3u, clause 24.
2. After the CRC field of the MAC frame, the STE10/ 100A w ill inser t the TR code ac co rding t o
IEE802 .3u, clause 24.
Receive Data Decap sulation
When o per at ing i n 10 0B ASE- TX mode the STE10/100A detects a JK code in a preamble as well as a
TR code at the packet end. If a JK code is not detected, the STE10/100A will abort the reception of t he
frame and wait for a new JK code detection. If a TR code is not detected, the STE10/100A will report a
CRC error.
Deferring
The Inter-Frame Gap (IFG) time is divided into two parts:
1.I FG1 time (64-bit ti me): If a carrier is detected on the medium during this time, the STE10/100A will
reset the IFG1 time counter and restart to monitor the channel for an idle again.
2.IFG2 time (32-bit time): After counting the IFG2 time the STE10 /100A will access the channel even
though a carrier has been sensed on the network.
Collisio n Handlin g
The scheduling of re-transmissions are determined by a controlled randomization process called
“truncated binary exponential back-off”. At the end of enforcing a collision (jamming), the STE10/100A
delays before attem pting to re-transmit the packet. The delay is an integer multiple of slot time. The
number of slot times to delay before the nth re-transmission attempt is chosen as a uniformly distributed
integer r in the range:
0 · r < 2
k
where k = min(n, 10)

6.5.2 Transceiver Operation
The transceiver portion of the STE10/100A integrates the IEEE802.3u compliant functions of PCS (physical
coding sub-layer), PMA (physical medium attachm ent) sub-layer, and PMD (phy sical medium dependent) sub-
layer for 100BASE-TX, and the IEEE802.3 compliant functions of Manchester encoding/decoding and trans-
ceiver for 10BASE-T. All the functions and operating schemes are described in the following sections.
100BA SE-TX Tra nsmi t Opera tion
For 100BASE-TX transmiss ion s, the STE10/100A tran sce iver p r ov ide s th e tr ansmissi o n functions o f
PCS, PMA, and PMD for enc oding of MII data nibbles into five-bit code-groups (4B/5B), scrambling,
serialization of scrambled code-groups, converting the serial NRZ code into NRZI code, converting the
NRZI code into MLT3 code, and then driving the MLT3 code into the category 5 Unshielded Twisted
Pair cable through an isolation transformer with the turns ratio of 1: 1.
Recommended Transformers: HB626-1 from Transpower Technologies, 9410 Prototype Drive, Suite
#1, Reno, NV 89511. Tel: (775) 852-0140 and H1102 from Pulse Engineering Inc., 12220 World Trade
Drive, San Diego, CA92128. Tel: (619) 674-8100.
Data code-groups Encoder: In normal MII mode applications, the transceiver receives nibble type 4B
data via the TxD0~3 inputs of the MII. These inputs are sampled by the transceiver on the rising edge
of Tx-clk and passed to the 4B/5B encoder to gene rate the 5B code-group used by 100B ASE-TX .
Idle c ode - gr o up s : In order to establish and maintain the clock synchronization, the transceiver must
keep transmitting signals to medium. The transceiver will generate Idle code-group s for transmission
when there is no actual data to be sent by MAC.
Start-of-Stream Delimiter-SSD (/J/K/): In a transmission stream, the first 16 nibbles comprise the
MAC preamble . In order to let a netwo rk partner delineate the boundary of a data transmission
sequence and to authenticate carrier events, the transceiver will replace the first 2 nibbles of the MAC
preamble with /J/K/ code-groups.
End-of-Stream Delimiter- ESD (/T/R/): In order to indicate the termination of normal data
transmissions, the transceiver will insert 2 nibbles of /T/R/ code-group after the last nibble of the FCS.
Scrambling: All the encoded data (including the idle, SSD, and ESD code-groups) is passed to the data
scrambler to reduce EMI by spreading the power spectrum using a 10-bit scrambler seed loaded at the
beginning.
Data conversion of Parallel to Serial, NRZ to NRZI, NRZI to MLT3: After being scrambled, the 5B
type transmission data at 25MHz will be converted to a 125HMz serial bit stream by t he parallel-to-serial
fun c tio n . Th e bit s trea m w ill be f u rthe r c o nv e rted fro m NRZ to N RZI format, un les s the c o nv e rs io n
function is bypassed by clearing ENRZI (bit 7 of XR10) to 0. After NRZI conversion, the NRZI bit stream
is passed through MLT3 encoder to generate the TP-PMD specified MLT3 code. By using MLT3 code,
the frequency and energy content of the transmission signal is reduced in the UTP, making the system
more easily compliant to FCC EMI specifications.
Wave-Sh ape r and Media Sign al Driver: In order to reduce the energy of the harmonic frequency of
transmission signals, the transceiver provides a wave-shaper prior the line driver to smooth the rising/
falling edge of transmission signals while maintaining the waveforms’ symmetry. The 100BASE-TX and
10BASE-T wave -s h aped signals are both passed to the same media signa l driver. This can simplify
system design by employing a single external magnetic connection.
100BA SE-TX Recei ving Op erati on
For 100BASE-TX receiving operation, the transceiver provides the receiving functions of PMD, PMA,
and PCS for incoming data signals through category 5 UTP cable and an isolation transformer with a
1:1 turns ratio. The receive transceiver portion includes the adaptive equal izer and baseline wand er,
MLT3 to NRZI data conversion, NRZI to NRZ conversion, serial to parallel conversion, a PLL for clock
and data recove ry, de-scramble r, and the 5B/4B decod er.
Adaptive Equalizer and Baseline Wander: High speed signals over unshielded (or shielded) twisted
51/67
STE10/100A
pair cable will exp erience attenua tion and phas e shift. These effects depend on the signal frequenc y,
cable type, cable length and the cable connectors. Robust circuits in the transceiver provide reliable
adaptive equalizer and baseline wander compensation for amplitude attenuation and phase shift due to
transmission line parasitics.
MLT3 to NRZI Decoder and PLL for Data Recovery: Following adaptive equalizer, baseline wander,
the transceiver converts the resulting MLT3 to NRZI code, which is passed to the Phase Lock Loop
circuits in order to extract the synchronous clock and the original data .
Data Conversions of NRZI to NRZ and Serial to Parallel: After the data is recovered, it will be passed
to the NRZI-to-NRZ converter to produce a 125MHz serial bit stream. This serial bit stream will be
packed to parallel 5B type for further processing. The NRZI to NRZ conversion may be bypassed by
clearing ENRZI (bit 7 of XR10) to 0.
De-scrambling and Decoding of 5B/4B: T he parallel 5B type data is passed to the de-scrambler and
5B/4B decoder to restore it to its original MII nibble representation.
Carr ier sens in g: The Carrier Sense (CRS) signal is asserted when the transceiver detects any 2 non-
contiguous zeros wit hin any 10-bit boundary of the receiving bit stream. CRS is de-asserted when ESD
code-group or Idle code-group is detected. In half duplex mode, CRS is asserted during packet
transmission or receive; in full duplex mode, CRS is asserted only during packet reception.
10BASE-T Tra nsmissi on Opera tion
The parallel-to-serial converter, Manchester Encoder, Link test, Jabber and the transmit wave-shaper
and line driver functions described in the section of “Wave-Shaper and Me dia Signal Driver” of
“10 0 BASE-T Tran smis sio n Oper a tion ” are also provided for 10BASE- T tra n s miss io n . Ad d iti o nally ,
Collision detection and SQ E test for half duplex application are provided.
10BASE-T Recei ve Op erati on
Carrier sense function, receiving filter, PLL for clock and data recovery, Manchester decoder, and serial
to parallel converter functions are provided to support 10BASE-T reception.
Loop-back Operation of transceiver
The transceiver provides inter nal loop-back (also called transceiver loop-back) operation for both
100BASE-TX and 10BASE-T o p er at ion. The loop-b a ck funct ion can b e enabled by setting XLBEN (bit
14 of XR0) to 1. In loop-back mode, the TX± and RX± lines are isolated from the media. The transceiver
also provides remote loop-back operation for 100BASE-TX operation. The remote loop-back operation
can be enabled by setting ENRLB (bit 9 of XR10) to 1.
In 100BASE-TX inter nal loop-back operation, the data is routed from the transmit output of NRZ-to-
NRZI converter and looped back to the receive input of NRZI-to-NRZ conv erter.
In 100BASE-T X r emo te loop-back operation, data is received from RX± pins and passe d through the
receive path to the output of the data and clock recovery section, and then looped back to the input of
the NRZI-to-MLT3 convert er and out to the med ium via the transmit line drivers.
In 10B ASE- T loop-back operation, the data is passed through th e transmit path to the output of the
Manches ter encoder and then looped back into the input of the Phase Lock Loop circuit in the re ceive
path.
Full Duplex and Half Duplex Operation of Transceiver
The transceiver can operate in either full duplex or half duplex network applications. In full duplex, both
transmission and reception can take place simultaneously. In full duplex mode, collision (COL) signal is
ignored and carrier sense (CRS) signal is asserted only when the transceiver is receiving.
In half duplex mode, transmiss ion and reception can not take place simultane ously. In half duplex
mode, the collision signal is asserted when transmitted and received signals collide, and carrier sense
is asserted during both transmission and reception.
Auto-N egotiat ion Operation
The Auto-Negotiation function provides the means to exchange information between the transceiver
STE10/100A
52/67
and the network partner to automatically configure both to take maximum advantage of their abilities.
The Auto-Negotiation function is controlled by ANEN (bit 12 of XR0).
During Auto-Negotiation information is exchanged with the network partner using Fast Link Pulses
(FLPs) - a burst of link pulses. There are 16 bits of signalin g information cont ained in the link pulses
which advertise to the remote partne r the capabilities which are represented by the conten ts of ANA
(register XR4). According to this information the partners find out their highest common capabilities by
following the priority sequenc e listed below:
1. 100BASE-TX full duplex
2. 100BASE-TX half duplex
3. 10BASE-T full duplex
4. 10BASE-T half duplex
During power-up or reset, if Auto-Negotiation is enabled, the FLP s w ill b e tra ns mitt ed and the Auto-Negotia-
tion function will proceed. Otherwise, Auto-Negoti ation will not occur until ANEN (bit 12 of XR0) is set to 1.
When the Auto-Negotiation is disabled, then Netw ork Speed and Duplex Mode are selected by programming
the XR0 register.
Powe r Dow n Opera tion
The transceiver is designed with a power-down feature which can reduce power consumption
significantly. Since the power supply of the 100BASE-TX and 10BASE-T circuits are separate, the
tr ansceive r ca n turn off the circu it of eithe r the 100BASE-TX or 10BASE- T when the other is active.
6.5.3 Flow Control in Full Duplex Application
The PAUSE functi on i s us ed to i nhibit t ransmiss ion of dat a frames f or a specif i ed peri od of t ime. The STE10/
100A supports the full duplex protocol of IEEE802 .3x. To support the PAUSE function, the STE10/100A im ple-
men ts the MAC C ontrol Sub-layer functions to decode the MAC C ontrol frames received from MAC control cli-
ents and to execute the relative requests accordingly. When Full Duplex mode and the PAUSE function are
selected aft er Auto-Negot i ation compl etes ( ref er to t he conf igur ation of X R8), the S TE10/100A wil l enable t he
PAUSE function for flow control in a full duplex application. In this section we will describe how the STE10/100A
implements the PAUSE function.
MAC Control Frame and PAUSE Frame
Figure 14. MAC Control Frame Format
The MAC Control frame is distinguished from other MAC frames only by its Length/Type field identifi er. The
MAC Control Opcode defined in MAC Control Frame format for the PAUSE function is 0001h, and the PAUSE
time is specified in the MAC Control Parameters field with 2 Octets, represent ing an unsigned integer, in units
of Slot-Times. The range of possible PAUSE times is 0 to 65535 Slot-Times.
A valid PAUSE frame issued by a MAC c ontrol client (e.g., a switch or a bridge) would contain:
The destination address, set to the globally assigned 48 bit mulitcast address 01-80-C2-00-00-01,
6 Octets D e stination Address
6 Octets Source Address
2 Oc t ets Length/ Type = 88-08 h
2 Octets MAC Control Opcode

STE10/100A
or to the unicast address to which the MAC control client requests to inhibit its transmission of data
frames.
The MAC Cont rol Opcode field set to 0 001h.
2 Octets of PAUSE time specified in the MAC Control parameter field to indicate the length of time
for which the destination is requeste d to inhibit data frame transmission.
Receive Operation for PAUSE function
Upon reception of a valid MAC Control frame, the STE10/100 A will start a timer for the length of time
specified by the MAC Control Parameters field. When the timer value reaches zero, the STE 10/100A
exits the PAUSE state. However, a PAUSE frame will not affect the transmission of a frame that has
been submitte d to the MAC (i.e., once a transmit out of the MAC is begun, it can’t be interrupted).
Convers ely, the STE10/ 100A will not begin to transmi t a frame more than one slot -time after va lid
PAUSE frame is received a with a non-zero PAUSE time. If the STE10/100A receives a PAUSE frame
with a zero PAUSE time value, the STE10/ 100A ex its the PAUSE state immediately.

6.6 LED Display Op eration
The STE10/100A provides 2 LED display modes; the detailed descripti ons of thei r operati on are described in
the PIN Description section.
First mode - 3 LED displays:
100Mbps (on) or 10Mbps (off)
Link (Rem ains on when l ink ok) or Activity (Blinks at 10Hz when receiving or transmitting collision-free)
FD (Rem ains on when in Full duplex mode) or Collision (Blinks at 20Hz when collis ions det ected)
Second mo de – 4 LED displays:
100 Link (On when 100M link ok)
10 Link (On when 10M link ok)
Activity (Blinks at 10Hz when receiving or transmitting)
FD (Rem ains on when in Full duplex mode) or Collision (Blinks at 20Hz when collis ions det ected)
6.7 Reset Operation
6.7.1 Reset whol e chip
There are two ways to reset the STE10/100A:
Hardware reset: v ia RST# pin (to ensure proper reset operation, the RST# signal should be asserted at least
100ms)
Software reset:: via SW R (bit 0 of CSR0) being set to 1 (the S T E10/100A will reset all circuits except the trans-
ceivers and configuration registers, set registers to their default values, and will cle ar SW R) and set XRS T(XR0,
bit 15) to reset the transceivers.
6.7.2 Reset Transceiver only
When XRST (bit 15 of XR0) is set to 1, the t ransceiv er will r eset its circuits, will initialize its registers to their
default values, and clear XRST.
6.8 Wake on LAN Function
The ST E10/100A can asse rt a signal to wake up the system when it has received a Magic Pack et from the net-
work. The W ake on LA N operation is described as follow.
The Magic Packe t format:
Valid destination address that can pass the address filter of the STE10/100A
The payload of frame must incl ude at leas t 6 conti guous FF’ fol lowed immediately by 16 repetitions of
IEEE address.
The frame can contain multiple ‘six FF + sixteen IEEE address’ pattern.
V alid CRC
The Wake on LAN operation
The Wake on LAN enable function is controlled by WOL (bit 18 of CSR18), which is loaded from
EEPROM after reset o r programmed by driver software. If WOL is set and the STE10/100A receives a
Magic Pa cket, it will as s ert the PME # sign al (activ e low) to indic ate reception of a wake up frame and
will set the PME status bit (bit 15 of CSR20).
6.9 AC P I Po wer Mana g em e n t Fu ncti on

6.9.1 Power States
DO (Fully On)
In this state the STE10/100A operates with full functionality and consumes normal power. While in the
D0 state, if the PCI clock is lower than 16MHz , the STE10/100A may not receive or transmi t frames
properly.
D1, D2, and D3hot
In these states, the STE10/100A doesn’t respond to any accesses except configuration space and full
function context in place. The only network operation the STE10/100 A can initiate is a wake-up event.
D3cold (Power Removed)
In this state all function context is lost. When power is restored, a PCI reset must be asserted and the
function will return to D0.
D3hot (So ftware Visible D3)
When the STE10/100A is brought back to D0 from D3hot the software must perform a full initiali zation.
The STE10/100A in the D3hot state responds to configuration cycles as long as power and clock are
supplied. This requires the device to perform an internal reset and return t o a power-up reset condition
without the RST# pin asserted.
