Signal Descriptions
Intel recommends that all inputs and multi-function pins be tied to the inactive states and all
outputs be left floating, if unused.

Receive Data Valid.
The LXT971A asserts this signal when it drives
valid data on RXD. This output is synchronous to RX_CLK.
Receive Error.
Signals a receive error condition has occurred.
This output is synchronous to RX_CLK.
Transmit Error.
Signals a transmit error condition. This signal must
be synchronized to TX_CLK.
Receive Clock.
25 MHz for 100 Mbps operation, 2.5 MHz for
10 Mbps operation. Refer to
in
Collision Detected.
The LXT971A asserts this output when a
collision is detected. This output remains High for the duration of the
collision. This signal is asynchronous and is inactive during full-
duplex operation.
Carrier Sense.
During half-duplex operation (Register bit 0.8 = 0),
the LXT971A asserts this output when either transmitting or
receiving data packets. During full-duplex operation (Register bit 0.8
= 1), CRS is asserted only during receive. CRS assertion is
asynchronous with respect to RX_CLK. CRS is de-asserted on loss
of carrier, synchronous to RX_CLK.
O
Receive Data.
RXD is a bundle of parallel signals that transition
synchronously with respect to the RX_CLK. RXD<0> is the least
significant bit.
I
O
Transmit Enable.
The MAC asserts this signal when it drives valid
data on TXD. This signal must be synchronized to TX_CLK.
Transmit Clock.
TX_CLK is sourced by the PHY in both 10 and
100 Mbps operations.
2.5 MHz for 10 Mbps operation, 25 MHz for 100 Mbps operation.
I
Transmit Data.
TXD is a bundle of parallel data signals that are
driven by the MAC. TXD<3:0> transitions synchronously with
respect to the TX_CLK. TXD<0> is the least significant bit.
