DRVR

88
OUT
These pins have no Ethernet function. In Ethernet Mode these pins are placed in their token ring reset
state of DRVR = High, DRVR
= Low.
FRAQ/TXD 85 OUT
Ethernet Transmit Data. This output signal provides the Ethernet physical layer circuitry with bit-rate
from the TMS380C26. Data on this pin is output synchronously to the transmit clock TXC
. It is
normally connected to the TXD pin of an Ethernet Serial Network Interface (SNI) chip.
NSRT/LPBK 86 OUT
Loopback. This enables loopback of Ethernet transmit data through the Ethernet (SNI) device to
recieve data.
H = Wrap through the front end device
L = Normal operation
PXTALIN/TXC 92 IN
Ethernet Transmit Clock. A 10 MHz clock input used to synchronize transmit data from the
TMS380C26 to the Ethernet physical layer circuitry. This is a continuously running clock. It is normally
connected to the TXC output pin of an Ethernet SNI chip (see Note 5).
RCLK/RXC 94 IN
Ethernet Receive Clock. A 10 MHz clock input used to synchronize received data from the Ethernet
physical layer circuitry to the TMS380C26. This clock must be present whenever the CRS signal is
active (although it can be held low for a maximum of 16 clock cycles after the rising edge of CRS).
When the CRS signal is inactive it is permissable to hold this clock in a low phase. It is normally
connected to the RXC output pin of an Ethernet Serial Network Interface (SNI) chip. The TMS380C26
requires this pin to be maintained in the low state when CRS
is not asserted (see Note 5).
RCVR/RXD 95 IN
Ethernet Received Data. This input signal provides the TMS380C26 with bit rate network data from
the Ethernet front end device. Data on this pin must be synchronous with the receive clock RXC. It
is normally connected to the RXD pin of an Ethernet SNI chip (see Note 5).
REDY/CRS 84 IN
Ethernet Carrier Sense. This input signal indicates to the TMS380C26 that the Ethernet physical layer
circuitry has network data present on the RXD pin. This signal is asserted high when the first bit of
the frame is received and is deasserted after the last bit of the frame is received.
H = Receiving data.
L = No data on network.
WFLT/COLL 87 IN
Ethernet Collision Detect. This input signal indicates to the TMS380C26 that the Ethernet physical
layer circuitry has detected a network collision. This signal must be present for at least two TXC clock
cycles to ensure it is accepted by the TMS380C26. It is normally connected to the COLL pin of an
Ethernet SNI chip. This signal can also be an indication of the SQE test signal.
H = COLL detected by the SNI device.
L = Normal operation.
WRAP/TXEN 90 OUT
Ethernet Transmit Enable. This output signal indicates to the Ethernet physical layer circuitry that
bit-rate data is present on the TXD pin. This signal is output synchronously to the transmit clock TXC
.
It is normally connected to the TXE pin of an Ethernet SNI chip.
H = Data line currently contains data to be transmitted.
L = No valid data on TXEN.
NOTE 5: Pin has an expanded input voltage specification.
