Introduction
physical connection to the Ethernet media. This is done
through two separate media dependent interfaces and a SIA
interface. The media dependent interfaces are the
Attachment Unit Interface(AUI) and the 10BASE–T Twisted
Pair(TP) port. The MC68160B’s SIA interface supports the
Motorola MC68360 only. Chip status is supported on all
versions indicated by the condition of 6 status indicator pins.
All but one are open collector outputs.
transmission. NRZ data from the communications controller
SIA interface is encoded by the MC68160B into Manchester
Code in preparation for transmission on the media. The data
is then applied to either the AUI or TP port. If the data was
transmitted using the 10BASE–T port, this data is also
looped back to the receive data interface SIA pins
connected to the controller. This allows detection of a
collision condition in the event that another station on the
media attempted transmission at the same time. After the
entire data frame has been transmitted, the EEST must
force the media idle signal. The idle signal frees the media
for other stations that have deferred transmission. If no
other transmissions are required the link enters an idle
state. During this idle state the 10BASE–T transmitter
issues idle pulses which communicates to the receiver
connected to the other side that the link is valid. If the

screened for proper sequence and pulse width requirements.
If the preamble of the received frame meets the
requirements, the PLL locks onto the 64–bit preamble and
begins to decode the Manchester Code to NRZ code. This
code is then presented to the communications controller at
the receive data pins at the SIA interface. If data is received
at the AUI port, it is sent directly to the communications
controller via the SIA interface.
Data Transmission
munications controller must be synchronized to TCLK.
Transmission to the 10BASE–T or AUI media occurs when
TENA is asserted and data is applied to the TX pin. Finally, to
signify transmission, the TXLED in will cycle on and off at a
100 ms period. Data transmission for EEST is accomplished
either over the 10BASE–T port or the AUI port. Both
connections to the media are made with industry standard
media interface components. The 10BASE–T interface
requires a filter and transformer, the AUI interface requires
only a transformer. The filter for the 10BASE–T transmit
circuit will have to be chosen for each application.
