Networking Silicon — 82555  
1.0  
Introduction  
The 82555 is a highly integrated, physical layer interface solution designed for 10 and 100 Mbps  
Ethernet systems based on the IEEE 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX specifications. 100BASE-TX is  
an IEEE 802.3 physical layer specification for use over two pairs of Category 5 unshielded twisted  
pair or Type 1 shielded twisted pair cable. 100BASE-TX defines a signaling scheme not only for  
100 Mbps, but also provides CSMA/CD compatibility with the 10 Mbps IEEE 802.3 10BASE-T  
signaling standard.  
1.1  
Functional Overview  
The 82555 is designed to work in two modes: Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) for adapters and  
repeater for hubs and switches. When configured to DTE (adapter) mode, the 82555 incorporates  
all active circuitry required to interface 10/100 Mbps Ethernet controllers and CSMA/CD MAC  
components to 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps networks. In this and other documents the 82555 may be  
referred to as the DTE, Physical Medium Device (PMD), or Physical Layer Medium (PLM). It  
supports a direct glueless interface to Intel components such as the 82557 Fast Ethernet controller.  
The 82555 also supports the Media Independent Interface (MII) signals as specified in the IEEE  
802.3u standard. The figure below shows how the 82555 fits into a 10/100 Mbps Ethernet adapter  
design.

Figure 1. 82555 10/100 Mbps Ethernet Solution  
When configured to repeater mode, the 82555 incorporates several features that allow it to function  
as a Class I or MII level repeater. Section 6.0, “Repeater Mode” on page 25 describes the 82555 in  
a repeater type of application.  
1.2  
Compliance to Industry Standards  
When operating in 100 Mbps mode, the 82555 complies with IEEE 802.3u 100BASE-TX  
specification. The PMD section with the related changes established in 802.3u 100BASE-TX  
complies with ANSI X3.263:1995 TP-PMD, Revision 2.2.  
When operating in the 10 Mbps mode, the 82555 complies with the IEEE 802.3 10BASE-T  
specification.

The 82555 also complies with the IEEE 802.3u Auto-Negotiation and the IEEE 802.3x Full Duplex  
Flow Control sections. The MAC interface on the 82555 is a superset of the IEEE 802.3u Media  
Independent Interface (MII) standard.

Architectural Overview  
The 82555 is an advanced combination of both digital and analog logic which combine to provide a  
functional stack between the Media Independent Interface (MII) and the wire through the  
magnetics. Figure 2 shows a general block diagram of the 82555 component.  
Figure 2. 82555 Simplified Block Diagram  
2.1  
100 Mbps Mode  
In 100BASE-TX mode the 82555 digital subsection performs all signal processing of digital data  
obtained from the analog reception and the data to be driven into the analog transmit subsection.  
This includes 4B/5B encoding/decoding, scrambling/descrambling, carrier sense, collision  
detection, link detection, Auto-Negotiation, data validation, and providing MII to the Media  
Access Controller (MAC). The 82555 supports the IEEE defined MII as its MAC interface and  
expects the controller to drive the Management Data Input/Output and Management Data Clock  
signals to perform the management functions.  
In 100BASE-TX mode, the analog subsection of the 82555 performs two functions:  
Transmit: The 82555 converts a digital 125 Mbps stream into MLT-3 format and drives it  
through the transmit differential pair onto the physical medium.

82555 — Networking Silicon  
Receive: The 82555 takes receive analog MLT-3 data from the receive differential pair and  
converts it into a digital 125 Mbps stream, recovering both clock and data signals.

10 Mbps Mode  
The 82555 operation in 10BASE-T mode is similar to the 82555 operation in 100BASE-TX mode.  
Manchester encoding and decoding is used instead of 4B/5B encoding/decoding and scrambling/  
descrambling. In addition, the Transmit Clock and Receive Clock (MII clock signals) provide 2.5  
MHz instead of 25 MHz.

100BASE-TX Adapter Mode Operation  
4.1  
100BASE-TX Transmit Clock Generation  
A 25 MHz crystal or a 25 MHz oscillator is used to drive the 82555’s X1 and X2 pins. The 82555  
derives its internal transmit digital clocks from this crystal or oscillator input. The Transmit Clock  
signal is a derivative of the 25 MHz internal clock. The accuracy of the external crystal or oscillator  
must be ± 0.0005% (50 PPM).  
4.2  
100BASE-TX Transmit Blocks  
The transmit subsection of the 82555 accepts nibble-wide data on the TXD[3:0] lines when TXEN  
is asserted (high). The transmit subsection passes data unconditionally to the 4B/5B encoder as  
long as TXEN is active.  
The 4B/5B encoder accepts nibble-wide data (4 bits) from the MAC and compiles it into 5-bit-wide  
parallel symbols. These symbols are scrambled and serialized into a 125 Mbps bit stream,  
converted by the analog transmit driver into a MLT-3 waveform format, and transmitted onto the  
Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) or Shielded Twisted Pair (STP) wire.  
4.2.1  
100BASE-TX 4B/5B Encoder  
The 4B/5B encoder complies with the IEEE 802.3u 100BASE-TX standard. Four bits are encoded  
according to the transmit 4B/5B lookup table. The lookup table matches a 5-bit code to each 4-bit  
code.  
The table below illustrates the 4B/5B encoding scheme associated with the given symbol.

100BASE-TX Scrambler and MLT-3 Encoder  
Data is scrambled in 100BASE-TX in order to reduce electromagnetic emissions during long  
transmissions of high-frequency data codes. The scrambler logic accepts 5 bits from the 4B/5B  
encoder block and presents the scrambled data to the MLT-3 encoder. The 82555 implements the  
11-bit stream cipher scrambler as adopted by the ANSI XT3T9.5 committee for UTP operation.  
The cipher equation used is:  
X[n] = X[n-11] + X[n-9] (mod 2)  
The MLT-3 encoder receives the scrambled Non-Return to Zero (NRZ) data stream from the  
scrambler and encodes the stream into MLT-3 for presentation to the driver. MLT-3 is similar to  
NRZI coding, but three levels are output instead of two. There are three output levels: positive,  
negative and zero. When an NRZ “0” arrives at the input of the encoder, the last output level is

maintained (either positive, negative or zero). When an NRZ “1” arrives at the input of the encoder,  
the output steps to the next level. The order of steps is negative-zero-positive-zero which continues  
periodically. The figure below illustrates this process.

100BASE-TX Transmit Framing  
The 82555 does not differentiate between the fields of the MAC frame containing preamble, start  
of frame delimiter, data and Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC). When TXEN is asserted, the 82555  
accepts data on the MII TXD[3:0] lines, encodes it, and sends it out onto the wire. The 82555  
encodes the first byte of the preamble as the “JK” symbol, encodes all other pieces of data  
according to the 4B/5B lookup table, and adds the “TR” code after the end of the packet (de-  
assertion of TXEN). The 82555 scrambles and serializes the data into a 125 Mbps stream, encodes  
it as MLT-3, and drives it onto the wire. If TXERR is asserted during transmission of valid data, the  
82555 transmits an invalid “H” symbol.

Transmit Driver  
The transmit differential lines are implemented with a digital slope controlled current driver that  
meets the TP-PMD specifications. Current is sunk from the isolation transformer by the transmit  
differential pins. The conceptual transmit differential waveform for 100 Mbps is illustrated in the

100BASE-TX Receive Blocks  
The receive subsection of the 82555 accepts 100BASE-TX MLT-3 data on the receive differential  
pair. Due to the advanced digital signal processing design techniques employed, the 82555 will  
accurately receive valid data from Category 5 (CAT5) UTP and Type 1 STP cable of length well in  
excess of 100 meters.

4.3.2  
4.3.3  
Adaptive Equalizer  
The distorted MLT-3 signal at the end of the wire is restored by the equalizer. The equalizer  
performs adaptation based on the shape of the received signal, equalizing the signal to meet  
superior Data Dependent Jitter performance.  
Receive Clock and Data Recovery  
The clock recovery circuit uses advanced digital signal processing technology to compensate for  
various signal jitter causes. The circuit recovers the 125 MHz clock and data and presents the data  
to the MLT-3 decoder.  
MLT-3 Decoder, Descrambler, and Receive Digital Section  
The 82555 first decodes the MLT-3 data; afterwards, the descrambler reproduces the 5B symbols  
originated in the transmitter. The descrambling is based on synchronization to the transmit 11-bit  
Linear Feedback Shift Register (LFSR) during idle. The data is decoded at the 4B/5B decoder.  
Once the 4B symbols are obtained, the 82555 outputs the receive data to the CSMA unit.  
4.3.4  
100BASE-TX Receive Framing  
The 82555 does not differentiate between the fields of the MAC frame containing preamble, start  
of frame delimiter, data and CRC. During 100 Mbps reception, the 82555 differentiates between  
the idle condition ("L" symbols on the wire) and the preamble or start of frame delimiter. When  
two non-consecutive bits are 0b within 10 bits (125 Mbps 5B data coding) the 82555 immediately  
asserts the CRS signal. When the “JK” symbols (“11000, 10001”) are fully recognized, the 82555  
asserts the RXDV signal and provides the data received on the MII RXD[3:0] to the Receive Clock.  
If the “JK” symbol is not recognized (“false carrier sense”), the CRS signal is immediately de-  
asserted and RXERR is asserted. Otherwise, the valid data is passed through the MII until the  
82555 finds the “TR” (“01101, 00111”) and idle symbols in order to de-assert TXDV and CRS.  
4.3.5  
100BASE-TX Receive Error Detection and Reporting  
In 100BASE-TX mode, the 82555 can detect errors in receive data in a number of ways. Any of the  
following conditions is considered an error:  
Link integrity fails in the middle of frame reception.  
The start of stream delimiter “JK” symbol is not fully detected after idle.  
An invalid symbol is detected at the 4B/5B decoder.  
Idle is detected in the middle of a frame (before “TR” is detected).  
When any of the above error conditions occurs, the 82555 immediately asserts the Receive Error  
signal to the MAC. The RXERR signal is asserted as long as the receive error condition persists on  
the receive pair.  
4.4  
100BASE-TX Collision Detection  
100BASE-TX collisions in half duplex mode only are detected similarly to 10BASE-T collision  
detection, via simultaneous transmission and reception.

4.5  
100BASE-TX Link Integrity and Auto-Negotiation Solution  
The 82555’s Auto-Negotiation function automatically configures the device to the technology,  
media, and speed to operate with its link partner. Auto-Negotiation is widely described in IEEE  
specification 802.3u, Clause 28. The 82555 supports 10BASE-T half duplex, 10BASE-T full  
duplex, 100BASE-TX half duplex, and 100BASE-TX full duplex.  
The 82555 has two Physical Medium Attachment (PMA) technologies with its link integrity  
function, 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX. The 82555 also has a special interface defined between  
itself and a PHY-T4 in order to implement an Auto-Negotiation combination card.  
4.5.1  
4.5.2  
Link Integrity  
In 100BASE-TX, the link integrity function is determined by a stable signal status coming from the  
TP-PMD block. Signal status is asserted when the PMD detects breaking squelch energy and the  
right bit error rate according to the ANSI specification.  
Auto-Negotiation  
The 82555 fully supports IEEE 802.3u, Clause 28. In DTE (adapter) mode, the technology,  
10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX, is determined by the Auto-Negotiation result. In repeater mode only,  
this function can be disabled by pin configuration. If the T4ADV pin is active, the Auto-  
Negotiation function will advertise and negotiate T4 technology.  
Speed and duplex auto-select are functions of Auto-Negotiation. However, these parameters may  
be manually configured via the MII management interface (MDI registers).  
4.5.3  
Combination Tx/T4 Auto-Negotiation Solution  
The Auto-Negotiation function is available in both the 82555 and a PHY-T4. For these PHYs to  
operate together, some arbitration at the PMA level is required and the Auto-Negotiation function  
of one of the PHYs must be disabled. For this purpose, the 82555 is defined as the master; and the  
PHY-T4, the slave. In combination mode, only the 82555’s Auto-Negotiation function is enabled  
(the PHY-T4’s Auto-Negotiation is disabled).  
In a combination board, a PHY-T4 is used only to support 100BASE-T4 operation and the 82555 is  
sued to support 100BASE-TX full or half duplex and 10BASE-T full or half duplex as determined  
by the Auto-Negotiation or Parallel Detection function.  
Combination mode is available only in DTE (adapter) mode with the following pin interface:  
T4ADV (pin 54): Enables T4 technology in a PHY-TX Auto-Negotiation system.  
SLVTRI (pin 52): Disables the PHY-T4.The PHY-T4 is enabled only if the T4 technology has  
been detected by Auto-Negotiation or Parallel Detection.  
LISTAT (pin 6): Indicates valid link on the PHY-T4. When SLVTRI is de-asserted, the PHY-  
T4 should be active.

Auto 10/100 Mbps Speed Selection  
The MAC may either allow the 82555 to automatically select its operating speed or force the 82555  
into 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps mode. The Management Data Interface (MDI) can control the 82555  
speed mode.  
The 82555 autoselect function determines the operation speed of the media based on the link  
integrity pulses it receives. If no Fast Link Pulses (FLPs) are detected and Normal Link Pulses  
(NLPs) are detected, the 82555 defaults to 10 Mbps operation. If the 82555 detects a speed change,  
it dynamically changes its transmit clock and receive clock frequencies to the appropriate value.  
This change takes a maximum of five milliseconds.  
4.7  
Adapter Mode Addresses  
In DTE (adapter) mode, the 82555 supports addresses 0, 1, 2, and 3 through the pins PHYA1 and  
PHYA0. Four addresses are sufficient in the case of a combination adapter having three PHYs. For  
switch applications, the T4ADV signal should be de-asserted to allow all 32 addresses to be  
available in repeater mode.

10BASE-T Functionality in Adapter Mode  
5.1  
10BASE-T Transmit Clock Generation  
The 20 MHz and 10 MHz clocks needed for 10BASE-T are synthesized from the external 25 MHz  
crystal or oscillator. The 82555 provides the transmit clock and receive clock to the MAC at 2.5  
MHz.  
5.2  
10BASE-T Transmit Blocks  
5.2.1  
10BASE-T Manchester Encoder  
After the 2.5 MHz clocked data is serialized in a 10 Mbps serial stream, the 20 MHz clock  
performs the Manchester encoding. The Manchester code always has a mid-bit transition. If the  
value is 1b then the transition is from low to high. If the value is 0b then the transition is from high  
to low. The boundary transition occurs only when the data changes from bit to bit. For example, if  
the value is 10b, then the change is from high to low; if 01b, then the change is from low to high.  
5.2.2  
10BASE-T Driver and Filter  
Since 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX have different filtration needs, both filters are implemented  
inside the chip. This allows the two technologies to share the same magnetics. The 82555 supports  
both technologies through one pair of transmit differential pins and by externally sharing the same  
magnetics.  
In 10 Mbps mode, the 82555 begins transmitting the serial Manchester bit stream within 3 bit times  
(300 nanoseconds) after the MAC asserts TXEN. In 10 Mbps mode the line drivers use a pre-  
distortion algorithm to improve jitter tolerance. The line drivers reduce their drive level during the  
second half of “wide” (100 ns) Manchester pulses and maintain a full drive level during all narrow  
(50 ns) pulses and the first half of the wide pulses. This reduces line overcharging during wide  
pulses, a major source of jitter.  
5.3  
10BASE-T Receive Blocks  
5.3.1  
10BASE-T Manchester Decoder  
The 82555 performs Manchester decoding and timing recovery when in 10 Mbps mode. The  
Manchester encoded data stream is decoded from the receive differential pair to separate Receive  
Clock and Receive Data lines from the differential signal. This data is transferred to the controller  
at 2.5 MHz/nibble through the MII. The high-performance circuitry of the 82555 exceeds the IEEE  
802.3 jitter requirements.  
5.3.2  
10BASE-T Twisted Pair Ethernet (TPE) Receive Buffer and Filter  
In 10 Mbps mode, data is expected to be received on the receive differential pair after passing  
through isolation transformers. The filter is implemented inside the 82555 for supporting single  
magnetics that are shared with the 100BASE-TX side. The input differential voltage range for the

82555 — Networking Silicon  
Twisted Pair Ethernet (TPE) receiver is greater than 585 mV and less than 3.1 V. The TPE receive  
buffer distinguishes valid receive data, link test pulses, and the idle condition, according to the  
requirements of the 10BASE-T standard.  
The following line activity is determined to be inactive and is rejected:  
Differential pulses of peak magnitude less than 300 mV.  
Continuous sinusoids with a differential amplitude less than 6.2 Vpp and frequency less than 2  
MHz.  
Sine waves of a single cycle duration starting with 0° or 180° phase that have a differential  
amplitude less than 6.2 Vpp and a frequency of at least 2 MHz and not more than 16 MHz.  
These single-cycle sine waves are discarded only if they are preceded by 4 bit times (400  
nanoseconds) of silence.  
All other activity is determined to be either data, link test pulses, Auto-Negotiation fast link pulses,  
or the idle condition. When activity is detected, the carrier sense signal is asserted to the MAC.  
5.3.3  
10BASE-T Error Detection and Reporting  
In 10 Mbps mode, the 82555 can detect errors in the receive data. The following condition is  
considered an error:  
The receive pair’s voltage level drops to the idle state during reception before the end-of-frame  
bit is detected (250 nanoseconds without mid-bit transitions).  
5.4  
5.5  
10BASE-T Collision Detection  
Collision detection in 10 Mbps mode is indicated by simultaneous transmission and reception. If  
the 82555 detects this condition, it asserts a collision indication to the controller.  
10BASE-T Link Integrity  
The link integrity in 10 Mbps works with link pulses. The 82555 senses and differentiates those  
link pulses from fast link pulses and from 100BASE-TX idles. In the first and last case, the 82555  
activates parallel detection of the respective technology; and in the second case, Auto-Negotiation.  
The 10 Mbps link pulses or normal link pulses are driven in the transmit differential pair line but  
are 100 ns wide and have levels from 0 V to 5 V. The link beat pulse is also used to determine if the  
receive pair polarity is reversed. If it is, the polarity is corrected internally.  
5.6  
10BASE-T Jabber Control Function  
The 82555 contains a jabber control function that inhibits transmission after a specified time  
window when enabled. In 10 Mbps mode, the jabber timer is set to a value between 26.2 ms and 39  
ms. If the 82555 detects continuous transmission that is greater than this time period, it prevents  
further transmissions from onto the wire until it detects that the MAC transmit enable signal has  
been inactive for at least 314 ms.

10BASE-T Full Duplex  
The 82555 supports 10 Mbps full duplex by disabling the collision function, the squelch test, and  
the carrier sense transmit function. This allows the 82555 to transmit and receive simultaneously,  
achieving up to 20 Mbps of network bandwidth. The configuration can be achieved through Auto-  
Negotiation. Full duplex should only be used in point-to-point connections (no shared media).  
Flow control is always disabled.

Repeater Mode  
The 82555 has a compete set of repeater features making it the ideal PHY for Class 1 (MII)  
repeater designs. The 82555 works in repeater mode when the RPT signal (pin 50) is high. The  
FRC100 signal (pin 51) determines which type of repeater is supported, either 100BASE-TX or  
10BASE-T.  
6.1  
Special Repeater Features  
Special features of the 82555 repeater mode operation include:  
Fully IEEE compliant with automatic carrier disconnect.  
The 82555 will disconnect when it receives false carrier detects. Either a long series of valid  
idle symbols or a valid “JK” pair will cause it to reconnect.  
Narrow 14 mm analog side that enables tight packing of multiple PHYs, which is ideal for 8,  
12, 18, 24, or even 32 port repeater designs.  
Very low emissions and high noise immunity.  
32 configurable addresses through five address lines.  
Auto-Negotiation disable function.  
In repeater mode, the Auto-Negotiation function is not used for configuration purposes. When  
Auto-Negotiation is enabled in repeater mode, the MII management will be able to obtain data  
from the MDI Auto-Negotiation register about the remote partner. This is a feature for hub  
management allowing a 10/100 Mbps repeater design to automatically detect whether or not it  
can operate at 100 Mbps. If the ANDIS signal is de-asserted, the Auto-Negotiation feature will  
be disabled.  
Forced 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps operation (allows for a 10/100 repeater design).  
Receive port enable function.  
The PORTEN signal is a glueless interface to the Repeater Interface Controller (RIC). When  
the PORTEN signal is low, all receive signals are tri-stated, except CRS and COL.  
26-bit PHY budget for round trip.  
The total PHY bit budget is 8 bits from the MII to the wire and 18 bits from the wire to the  
MII.  
Static 2.5 MHz (10BASE-T) or 25 MHz (100BASE-TX) clock input for repeater designs  
(issued by RIC).  
The 82555 clock source is fixed between Resets. There is one input, either 2.5 MHz or 25  
MHz, as indicated by the level at the FRC100 pin. All clocks have a common source  
generation so the that PPM is 0 between them (X1, 2.5 MHz and 25 MHz).  
DTE (adapter) features not available in repeater mode: full duplex, flow control, and the  
combination Auto-Negotiation interface for T4.  
6.2  
Connectivity  
A 25 MHz buffered oscillator can provide the clock to all of the 82555 devices. A 2.5 MHz (10  
Mbps) or a 25 MHz (100 Mbps) signal is required to clock the RIC and the TXC signal in the  
PHYs. TXD[3:0], TXERR, RXC, RXD[3:0], RXDV, and RXERR are single-bus (shortened) for all

Networking Silicon — 82555

Management Data Interface  
The 82555 provides status and accepts management information through the Management Data  
Interface (MDI). This is accomplished through read and write operations to various registers in  
accordance with the IEEE 802.3u MII specification.  
7.1  
MDI Frame Structure  
Data read from or written to a particular register is called a management frame and is sent serially  
over the MDIO pin synchronously to the MDC signal. Read and write cycles are viewed from the  
perspective of the controller. Thus, the controller always drives the start, opcode, PHY address, and  
register address onto the MDIO pin. For read cycles, the controller drives the transition bits and  
data onto the MDIO pin; for write cycles, to the 82555. The controller drives addresses and data on  
the falling edge of the MDC signal, and the 82555 latches the data on the rising edge of the MDC  
signal. The following list defines protocol terms:  
PREAMBLE At the beginning of each transaction, the controller send a sequence of 32  
contiguous logic one bits on the MDIO pin with corresponding cycles on the MDC  
pin for synchronization by the 82555.  
ST  
OP  
This field contains the value of 01b indicating the start of a frame.  
This is a 2-bit field containing one of the following two operation codes: 10b (read)  
or 01b (write).  
PHYAD  
REGAD  
TA  
This field is a 5-bit address of the 82555 device that provides support for 32 unique  
PHY addresses. The controller drives the value written into the PHYAD portion of  
the MDI register in this field.  
This field is a 5-bit address of a specific register within the 82555. This provides  
support for 32 unique registers. The desired register address is specified by the  
value written to the MDI register.  
This field contains a 2-bit value specifying the period during a read cycle that no  
device may actively drive the MDIO signal. During a read transaction, the 82555  
should not drive the MDIO signal in the first bit time; however, it will drive a 0b in  
the second bit time. During a write transaction, the controller drives the pattern of  
10b to fill this time.  
DATA  
IDLE  
This field contains 16 bits of data driven by the 82555 on a read transaction or by  
the controller on a write transactions. This data is either control or status parameters  
passed between the controller and the 82555.  
During the idle state, the MDIO signal is in a high impedance state. The MDIO  
driver is disabled, and the 82555 will pull the MDIO signal high to a logic 1.

Networking Silicon — 82555  
8.0  
Auto-Negotiation Functionality  
The 82555 supports Auto-Negotiation. Auto-Negotiation is a scheme of auto-configuration  
designed to manage interoperability in multifunctional LAN environments. It allows two stations  
with “N” different modes of communication to establish a common mode of operation. At power-  
up, Auto-Negotiation automatically establishes a link that takes advantage of an Auto-Negotiation  
capable device. An Auto-Negotiation capable device can detect and automatically configure its  
port to take maximum advantage of common modes of operation without user intervention or prior  
knowledge by either station. The possible common modes of operation are: 100BASE-TX,  
100BASE-TX Full Duplex, 100BASE-T4, 10BASE-T, and 10BASE-T Full Duplex.  
8.1  
Description  
Auto-Negotiation selects the fastest operating mode (in other words, the highest common  
denominator) available to hardware at both ends of the cable. A PHY’s capability is encoded by  
bursts of link pulses called Fast Link Pulses (FLPs). Connection is established by FLP exchange  
and handshake during link initialization time. Once the link is established by this handshake, the  
native link pulse scheme resumes (that is, 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX link pulses). A reset or  
management renegotiate command (through the MDI interface) will restart the process. To enable  
Auto-Negotiation, bit 12 of the MDI Control Register must be set. If the 82555 cannot perform  
Auto-Negotiation, it will set this bit to 0b and determine the speed using Parallel Detection.  
The 82555 supports four technologies: 100BASE-Tx Full and Half Duplex and 10BASE-T Full  
and Half Duplex. Since only one technology can be used at a time (after every renegotiate  
command), a prioritization scheme must be used to ensure that the highest common denominator  
ability is chosen. Table 4 lists the technology ability field bit assignments. Each bit in this table is  
set according to what the PHY is capable of supporting. In the case of the 82555, bits 0, 1, 2, and 3  
are set. Table 5 lists the priority of each of the technologies.

To detect the correct technology, the two register fields should be ANDed together to obtain the  
highest common denominator. This value should then be used to map into a priority resolution  
table used by the MAC driver to use the appropriate technology.  
The following is an outline of the Auto-Negotiation process:  
1. Receive 3 consecutive, matching code words  
2. Set Acknowledge bit in transmit code word  
3. Receive 3 consecutive, matching code words with Acknowledge bit set  
4. Transmit 6 to 8 more code words with Acknowledge bit set  
5. Determine operating mode via the priority table  
6. Receive FLP from the link partner and record FLP in the MII register  
8.2  
Parallel Detect and Auto-Negotiation  
The 82555 automatically determines the speed of the link either by using Parallel Detect or Auto-  
Negotiation. Upon a reset, a link status fail, or a negotiate/renegotiate command, the 82555 inserts  
a long delay during which no link pulses are transmitted. This period, known as Force_Fail, insures  
that the 82555’s link partner has gone into a Link Fail state before Auto-Negotiation or Parallel  
Detection begins. Thus, both sides (the 82555 and the 82555’s link partner) will perform Auto-

Negotiation or Parallel Detection with no data packets being transmitted. Connection is then  
established either by FLP exchange or Parallel Detection. The 82555 will look for both FLPs and  
link integrity pulses. The following diagram illustrates this process.

LED Descriptions  
The 82555 supports four LED pins to indicate link status, network activity and network speed.  
Link: This LED is off (logic high) until a valid link has been detected. After a valid link has  
been detected, the LED will remain on (active-low).  
Activity: This LED is on (active-low) when activity is detected on the wire. In DTE (adapter)  
mode, this LED is on during transmit and receive when the 82555 is not in loopback mode. In  
repeater mode, this LED is on only during receive when the 82555 is not in loopback mode.  
Speed: This LED will be on if a 100BASE-TX link is detected and off if a 10BASE-T link is  
detected. If the link fails while in Auto-Negotiation, this LED will keep the last valid link state.  
If 100BASE-TX link is forced this LED will be on, regardless of the link status. This LED will  
be of if the 10BASE-T link is forced, regardless of the link status.  
Full Duplex: The FDX_N signal can operate as a LED if it is enabled. It indicates full duplex  
link for either 100BASE-TX or 10 BASE-T technology.  
MDI register 27 in Section 7.2.3.9, “Register 27: 82555 Special Control Bit Definitions” on  
page 34 details the information for LED function mapping and support enhancements.

Reset and Miscellaneous Test Modes  
10.1  
Reset  
When the 82555 RESET signal is asserted (high), all internal circuits are reset. TXC and RXC  
should run continuously even though RESET is active. The 82555 may also be reset through the  
MDI reset bit.  
10.2  
10.3  
10.4  
Loopback  
When the loopback pin is being driven high, the 82555 executes a loopback diagnostics operation.  
This mode can also be accessed through the MDI registers.  
Scrambler Bypass  
When the Scrambler Bypass pin is active, the 82555 bypasses the scrambler/descrambler. This  
mode can also be accessed through the MDI registers.  
Test Port  
When the TESTEN pin is high, the test pins provide a test access port for the 82555. In test mode,  
the 82555 will default to address 1. The 82555 has a simple Test Access Port (TAP) from which all  
the test modes are selected and test instructions are operated. The TAP is controlled by a simple  
mechanism and handshake. Activation of all test modes requires simple hardware. The TAP signals  
connected to the 82555 blocks and periphery control the 82555’s mode of operation to allow simple  
testing and internal built-in self testing.  
The test instruction are shifted into the Test Instruction Shift Register (TISR) through the TIN pin.  
The TIN pin is sampled on the rising edge of the TCK input signal. The instruction is transferred  
from the TISR to the Test Instruction Register (TIR) when TESTEN is sampled high on the rising  
edge of TCK. As a general rule, all the TAP input and output pins are activated by the rising edge of  
TCK. If TCK is a constant clock signal, then TESTEN must be 1 clock pulse width.  
When the TIR receives a new instruction, the instruction is decoded into control signals and  
synchronized to the 10 MHz clock. These control signals set the 82555 blocks into various test  
modes. In order to achieve stable synchronization between the clock signal (X1) and the TCK  
signal, the TCK input signal frequency should be less than or equal to half of the clock input signal  
frequency.

82555 — Networking Silicon  
The TOUT pin is controlled by different sources according to the active test instruction. The TOUT  
signal is activated by the falling edge of TCK. The TAP must be reset during power-up. Otherwise,  
the 82555 can wake-up during high-Z mode or NAND Test, which can be harmful to the board.  
The TAP should be reset only with a hardware reset input pin and not with software reset. The  
TOUT control logic selects the TISR output in all tests, except burn-in test modes.
