GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Am7992B Serial Interface Adapter (SIA) is a
Manchester encoder/decoder compatible with IEEE
802.3, Cheapernet, and Ethernet specifications. In an
IEEE 802.3/Ethernet application, the Am7992B inter-
faces the Am7990 Local Area Network Controller for
Ethernet (LANCE) to the Ethernet transceiver device,
acquires clock and data within four bit times, and de-
codes Manchester data with worst case
19 ns phase
jitter at 10 MHz. SIA provides both guaranteed signal
threshold limits and transient noise suppression cir-
cuitry in both data and collision paths to minimize false
start conditions.

PIN DESCRIPTION
CLSN
Collision (Output, TTL Active HIGH)
Signals at the Collision
terminals meeting threshold
and pulse-width requirements will produce a logic
HIGH at CLSN output. When no signal is present at
Collision
, CLSN output will be LOW.
RX
Receive Data (Output)
A MOS/TTL output, recovered data. When there is no
signal at Receive
and TEST is HIGH, RX is HIGH. RX
is actuated with RCLK and remains active until RENA
is deasserted at the end of the message. During recep-
tion, RX is synchronous with RCLK and changes after
the rising edge of RCLK. When TEST is LOW, RX is
enabled.
RENA
Receive Enable (Output, TTL Active HIGH)
When there is no signal at Receive+, RENA is LOW.
Signals meeting threshold and pulse-width "on" re-
quirements will produce a logic HIGH at RENA. When
RENA is HIGH, Receive+ signals meeting threshold
and pulse-width "off" requirements will produce a LOW
at RENA.
RCLK
Receive Clock (Output)
A MOS/TTL output, recovered clock. When there is no
signal at Receive
and TEST is HIGH, RCLK is LOW.
RCLK is activated 1/4 bit time after the second negative
Manchester preamble clock transition at Receive
and
remains active until after an end of message. When
TEST is LOW, RCLK is enabled and meets minimum
pulse-width specifications.
TX
Transmit (Input)
TTL-compatible input. When TENA is HIGH, signals at
TX meeting setup and hold time to TCLK will be
encoded as normal Manchester at Transmit+ and
Transmit.
s
TX HIGH: Transmit+ is negative with respect to
Transmit for first half of data bit cell.
s
TX LOW: Transmit+ is positive with respect to
Transmit for first half of data bit cell.
TENA
Transmit Enable (Input)
TTL-compatible input. Active HIGH data encoder
enable. Signals meeting setup and hold time to TCLK
will allow encoding of Manchester data from TX to
Transmit+ and Transmit.
TCLK
Transmit Clock (Output)
MOS/TTL output. TCLK provides symmetrical HIGH
and LOW clock signals at data rate for reference timing
of data to be encoded. It also provides clock signals for
the controller chip (Am7990--LANCE) and an internal
timing reference for receive path voltage-controlled
oscillators.
Transmit+, Transmit
Transmit (Outputs)
A differential line output. This line pair is intended to op-
erate into terminated transmission lines. For signals
meeting setup and hold time to TCLK at TENA and TX,
Manchester clock and data are outputted at Transmit+/
Transmit. When operating into a 78
terminated
transmission line, signaling meets the required output
levels and skew for both Ethernet and IEEE 802.3 drop
cables.
Receive+, Receive
Receiver (Inputs)
A differential input. A pair of internally biased line re-
ceivers consisting of a carrier detect receiver with offset
threshold and noise filtering to detect the line activity,
and a data recover y receiver with no offset for
Manchester data decoding.
Collision+, Collision
Collision (Inputs)
A differential input. An internally biased line receiver
input with offset threshold and noise filtering. Signals at
Collision
have no effect on data-path functions.
TSEL
Transmit Mode Select (Output, Open Collector;
Input, Sense Amplifier)
s
TSEL LOW: Idle transmit state Transmit+ is positive
with respect to Transmit.
s
TSEL HIGH: Idle transmit state Transmit+ and
Transmit are equal, providing "zero" differential to
operate transformer-coupled loads.
When connected with an RC network, TSEL is held
LOW during transmission. At the end of transmission
the open collector output is disabled, allowing TSEL to
rise and provide a smooth transmission from logic
HIGH to "zero" differential idle. Delay and output return
to zero are externally controlled by the RC network at
TSEL and Transmit
load inductance.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The Am7992B serial interface adapter (SIA) has three
basic functions. It is a Manchester encoder/line driver
in the transmit path, a Manchester decoder with noise
filtering and quick lock-on characteristics in the receive
path, and a signal detector/converter (10 MHz differen-
tial to TTL) in the collision path. In addition, the SIA pro-
vides the interface between the TTL logic environment
of the Local Area Network Controller for Ethernet
(LANCE) and the differential signaling environment in
the transceiver cable.
Transmit Path
The transmit section encodes separate clock and NRZ
data input signals meeting the setup and hold time to
TCLK at TENA and TX into a standard Manchester II
serial bit stream. The transmit outputs (Transmit+/
Transmit) are designed to operate into terminated
transmission lines. When operating into a 78
termi-
nated transmission line, signaling meets the required
output levels and skew for IEEE 802.3/Ethernet/
Cheapernet.
Transmitter Timing and Operation
A 20 MHz fundamental mode crystal oscillator provides
the basic timing reference in the SIA. It is divided by two
to create the Transmit Clock reference (TCLK). Both
20 MHz and 10 MHz clocks are fed into the Manchester
Encoder to generate the transitions in the encoded
data stream. The 10 MHz clock, TCLK, is used by the
SIA to internally synchronize Transmit (TX) data and
Transmit Enable (TENA). TCLK is also used as a stable
bit rate clock by the receive section of the SIA and by
other devices in the system (the Am7990 LANCE uses
TCLK to drive its internal state machine). The oscillator
may use an external 0.005% crystal or an external
TTL-level input as a reference, which will achieve a
transmit accuracy of 0.01% (no external adjustments
are required).
Transmission is enabled when TENA is activated. As
long as TENA remains HIGH, signals at TX will be en-
coded as Manchester and will appear at Transmit+ and
Transmit. When TENA goes LOW, the differential
transmit outputs go to one of two idle states determined
by the circuit configuration of TSEL:
TSEL HIGH:
The idle state of Transmit
yields "zero"
differential to operate transformer-coupled loads (see
Figure 2, Transmitter Timing--End of Transmission
waveform diagram and Typical Performance Curve
diagram).
TSEL LOW:
In this idle state, Transmit+ is positive to
Transmit (logical HIGH) (see figures and diagrams as
referenced above).
The End of Transmission--Return to Zero is deter-
mined by the external RX network at TSEL and by the
load at Transmit
.

Specification for External Crystal
When using a crystal to drive the Am7992B oscillator,
the following crystal specification should be used to en-
sure a transmit accuracy of 0.01%:
Some crystal manufacturers have generated crystals
to this specification. One such manufacturer is Reeves-
Hoffman. Their ordering part number for this crystal is
RH#04-20423-312. Another manufacturer is Epson--
Par t #MA 506-200M-50 pF, which is a surface-
mounted crystal.
Specification for External TTL Level
When driving the oscillator from an external clock
source, X
2
must be left floating (unconnected). An
external clock having the following characteristics
must be used to ensure less than +0.5 ns jitter at
Transmit+ (see the X

Receiver Path
The principle functions of the receiver are to signal the
LANCE that there is information on the receive pair and
to separate the incoming Manchester-encoded data
stream into clock and NRZ data.
The receiver section (see Figures 4 and 5) consists of
two parallel paths. The receive data path is a zero
threshold, wide bandwidth line receiver. The carrier
path is an offset threshold bandpass-detecting line re-
ceiver. Both receivers share common bias networks to
allow operation over an input common mode range of
0 V to 5.5V.

Input Signal Conditioning
The Carrier Receiver detects the presence of an in-
coming data packet by discerning and rejecting noise
from expected Manchester data. It also controls the
stop and start of the phase-locked loop during clock ac-
quisition. In the Am7992B, clock acquisition requires a
valid Manchester bit pattern of 1010 to lock on the in-
coming message (see Receive Timing--Start of Re-
ception Clock Acquisition waveform diagram).
Transient noise pulses less than 20 ns wide are re-
jected by the Carrier Receiver as noise and DC inputs
more positive than 175 mV are also suppressed. Car-
rier is detected for input signal wider than 45 ns with
amplitude more negative than 275 mV. When input
amplitude and pulse-width conditions are met at
Receive
, RENA is asserted and a clock acquisition
cycle is initiated.
Clock Acquisition
When there is no activity at Receive
(receiver is idle),
the receive oscillator is phase locked to TCLK. The first
negative clock transition (first valid Manchester "0")
after RENA is asserted interrupts the receive oscillator
and presets the INTRCLK (internal clock) to the HIGH
state. The oscillator is then restarted at the second
Manchester "0" (bit time 4) and is phase locked to it. As
a result, the SIA acquires the clock from the incoming
Manchester bit stream in four bit times with a "1010"
Manchester bit pattern. The 10 MHz INTRCLK and
INTPLLCLK are derived from the internal oscillator,
which runs at four times the data rate (40.0 MHz). The
three clocks generated internally are utilized in the fol-
lowing manner:
s
INTRCLK: After clock acquisition, INTRCLK
strobes the incoming data at 1/4 bit time. Receive
data path sets the input to the data decode register
(Figure 5).
s
INTPLLCLK: At clock acquisition, INTPLLCLK is
phase locked to the incoming Manchester clock
transition at bit cell center (BCC). The transition at
BCC is compared to INTPLLCLK and phase correc-
tion is applied to maintain INTRCLK at 1/4 bit time
in the Manchester cell.
s
INTCARR: From star t to end of a message,
INTCARR is active and establishes RENA turn-off
synchronously with RCLK rising edge. Internal car-
rier goes active when there is a negative transition
that is more negative than 275 mV and has a pulse
width greater or equal to 45 ns. Internal carrier goes
inactive typically 155 ns after the last positive tran-
sition at Receive
.
When TEST is strapped LOW, RCLK and RX are en-
abled 1/4 bit time after clock acquisition in bit cell 5. RX
is at HIGH state when the receiver is idle and TEST is
strapped HIGH (no RLCK). RX, however, is undefined
when clock is acquired and may remain HIGH or
change to LOW state whenever RCLK is enabled. At
the 1/4 bit time of clock transition in bit cell 5, RCLK
makes its first external transition. It also strobes the in-
coming fifth bit Manchester "1." RX may make a transi-
tion after the RCLK rising edge in bit cell 5, but its state
is still undefined. The Manchester "1" at bit 5 is clocked
to RX output at 1/4 bit time in bit cell 6.
PLL Tracking
After clock acquisition, the INTPLLCLK is compared to
the incoming transitions at BCC and the resulting
phase error is applied to a correction circuit. This circuit
ensures that INTPLLCLK remains locked on the re-
ceived signal. Individual bit cell phase corrections of
the V
CO
are limited to 10% of the phase difference be-
tween BCC and INTPLLCLK. Hence, input data jitter is
reduced in RCLK by 10 to 1.
Carrier Tracking and End of Message
The carrier receiver monitors Receive
input after
RENA is asserted for an end of message. INTCARR
deasserts typically 155 ns to 165 ns after the incoming
message transitions positive. This initiates the end of
reception cycle. INTCARR is strobed at 3/4 bit time by
the falling edge of INTRCLK. The time delay from the

last rising edge of the message to INTCARR deassert
allows the last bit to be strobed by RCLK and trans-
ferred by the LANCE without an extra bit at the end of
the message. When RENA deasserts (see Receive
Timing--End of Reception waveform diagrams), a
RENA hold-off timer inhibits RENA assertion for at
least 120 ns.
Data Decoding
The data receiver is a comparator with clocked output
to minimize noise sensitivity to the Receive
inputs.
Input error (VIRD) is less than
35 mV to minimize sen-
sitivity to input rise and fall time. RCLK strobes the data
receiver output at 1/4 bit time to determine the value of
the Manchester bit and clocks the data out at RX on the
following RCLK. The data receiver also generates the
signal used for phase detector comparison to the inter-
nal Am7992B V
CO
.
Differential l/O Terminations
The differential input for the Manchester data
(Receive
) is externally terminated by two 40.2-ohm
1% resistors and one optional common-mode bypass
capacitor. The differential input impedance, Z
lDF
and
the common-mode input, Z
lCM
, are specified so that the
Ethernet specification for cable termination impedance
is met using standard 1% resistor terminators. The Col-
lision
differential inputs are terminated in exactly the
same way as the receive inputs (see Figure 6).
Collision Detection
A transceiver detects collisions on the network and
generates a 10 MHz signal at the Collision
inputs. This
collision signal passes through an input stage that de-
tects signal levels and pulse duration. When the signal
is detected by the Am7992B, it sets the CLSN line
HIGH. This condition continues for approximately
160 ns after the last LOW-to-HlGH transition on
Collision
.

10 Am7992B
Jitter Tolerance Definition and Test
The Receive Timing--Start of Reception Clock Acqui-
sition waveform diagram shows the internal timing rela-
tionships implemented for decoding Manchester data
in the Am7992B. The Am7992B utilizes a clock capture
circuit to align its internal data strobe with an incoming
bit stream. The clock acquisition circuitry requires four
valid bits with the values 1010. Clock is phase locked to
the negative transition at BCC of the second "0" in
thepattern.
Since data is strobed at 1/4 bit time, Manchester tran-
sitions that shift from their nominal placement through
1/4 bit time will result in improperly decoded data. For
IEEE 802.3/Ethernet, this results in the loss of a mes-
sage. With this as the criterion for an error, a definition
of "jitter handling" is:
That peak deviation from nominal input transition
approaching or crossing 1/4 bit cell position for
which the Am7992B will properly decode data.
Four events of signal are needed to adequately test the
ability of the Am7992B to decode data properly from
the Manchester bit stream. For each of the four events,
two time points within a received message are tested
(See Input Jitter Timing Waveforms):
1. Jitter tolerance at clock acquisition, the measure of
clock capture (case 14).
2. Jitter tolerance within a message after the analogue
PLL has reduced clock acquisition error to a mini-
mum (case 58).
The four events to test are shown in the Input Jitter
Timing Waveform diagram. They are:
1. BCC jitter for a 01-bit pattern
2. BCC jitter for a 10-bit pattern
3. BCB jitter for an 11-bit pattern
4. BCB jitter for an X0-bit pattern
The test signals utilized to jitter the input data are arti-
ficial in that they may not be realizable on networks (ex-
amples are cases 2, 3, and 4 at clock acquisition).
However, each pattern relates to setup and hold time
measurements for the data decode register (Figure 5).
Receive+ and Receive are driven with the inputs
shown to produce the zero crossing distortion at the dif-
ferential inputs for the applicable test. Cases 4 and 8
require only a single zero to implement when tested at
the end of message.
Levels used to test jitter are within the common-mode
and differential-mode ranges of the receive inputs and
also are available from automatic test equipment. It is
assumed that the incoming message is asynchronous
with the local TCLK frequency for the Am7992B. This
ensures that proper clock acquisition has been estab-
lished with random phase and frequency error in in-
coming messages. An additional condition placed on
the jitter tolerance test is that it must meet all test re-
quirements within 10 ms after power is applied. This
forces the Am7992B crystal oscillator to start and lock
the analog PLL to within acceptable limits for receiving
from a cold start.
Case 1 of the test corresponds to the expected
Manchester data at clock acquisition, and average val-
ues for clock leading jitter tolerance are 21.5 ns. For
cases 5 through 8, average values are 24.4 ns. Cases
5 through 8 are jittered at bit times 55 or 56 as applica-
ble. The Am7992B, then, has on average 0.6 ns static
phase error for the noise-free case.

= 50 ns; in production test, all differential input test conditions are done single-ended,
non-V
IRD
levels are forces on DUT for waveform swing (levels chosen are due to tester limitations) and a distortion-free
preamble is applied to Receive
inputs.
Notes:
1. Tested but to values in excess of limits. Test accuracy not sufficient to allow screening guardbands.
2. Correlated to other tested parameter: I
OD
OFF = V
OD
OFF/R
L
.
3. Not tested.
4. Test done by monitoring output functionally.
5. Receive, Collision and Transmit functions are inactive: X1 driven by 20 MHz.
6. Not more than one output should be shorted at a time. Duration of the short circuit test should not exceed one second.
7. TCLK changes state on X1 rising edge, but initial state of TCLK is not defined. When TENA is High, TX data is
Manchester encoded on the falling edge of X1 after the rising edge of TCLK.
8. Assumes 50 pF capacitance loading on RCLK and RX.
9. Test is done only for last BIT = 1, which is worst case.
10. Test done from 0.8 V of falling to 2.0 V of rising edge.
11. Test correlated to T
TCH
.
12. Measured from 50% point of X1 driving the input in production test.
