Description
Control Bits 0 and 1
The CS4103 uses CTRL[0:1] to signal PHY status transfers and packet recep-
tion transfers to the CS4210. The CS4103 grants control of the interface to the
CS4210 for packet transmission.
Data Bits 0 through 7
DATA[0:1] are used for PHY status data transfers to the CS4210 and packet
transmit and receive. The width of the data bus depends on the speed of data
transfer rate. Packet rate for 100 Mbit/sec transfers use DATA[0:1], 200 Mbit/
sec transfers use DATA[0:3], 400 Mbit/sec transfers use DATA[0:7].
Note: DATA0 is considered the MSB (most significant bit) based upon the
IEEE 1394-1995 specification.
Link Request
The CS4103 receives serial bit stream requests from the CS4210 on this line.
The requests write PHY registers, request PHY register data, request packet
transmission, and control arbitration acceleration.
System Clock
The 49.152 MHz clock output driven by the CS4103’s PLL block synchronized
to the 1394 bus clock. This clock is also used to synchronize the LREQ,
CTRL[0:1], and DATA[0:7] communication protocol between the CS4210 and
CS4103.
Link Power Status
The CS4210 signals the CS4103 to both reset and disable the PHY-Link inter-
face when this input is deaserted and to restore the interface when asserted.
This line is level driven in direct mode and pulsed in isolated mode.
Link-On
The CS4103 uses this output to signal the CS4210 when the Link is inactive.
The Link is inactive when either LPS is deaserted or the PHY-Link_active bit
(Address 04h[0]) is zero. LNKON is a pulsed signal with a frequency from 4 to 8
MHz.
Direct/Isolation Barrier Indicator
Configures the PHY-Link interface to operate in direct/single capacitor bus hold
mode when high or isolated mode when low.
PLL Lock Indicator
An output high on this pin indicates that the PLL is locked. This signal is infor-
mational and is not required for operation. For normal operation, this pin may
be disconnected.
