5.0 DP83850C Applications

5.1 MII Interface Connections

The DP83850C's interface to DP83840A PHY devices is

fully

Application

Note

–

AN1069

"100BASE-TX Unmanaged Repeater Design Recommen-

dations". Designers should be aware that there are signiﬁ-

cant

issues involved in the signal timing, loading and

layout of this interface and they should consult this Applica-

tion Note and/or their National Semiconductor representa-

tive prior to attempting a design. Further system timing

analysis shows that the RXD[3:0], RX_DV and RX_ER sig-

nals should be latched into the DP83850C from the con-

nected DP83840s. Figure 5 shows the recommended

scheme. This ensures system timing can be met for hub

stacks.

5.2 Repeater ID Interface

The repeater ID interface is shown in Figure 6. It consists

of a bank of DIP switches or links to set the RID number for

the DP83850C to use as its IR_VECT[4:0] number.

5.3 Inter Repeater Bus Connections

For a simple stand-alone repeater that cannot be stacked,

no inter repeater bus transceivers/drivers are required and

the inter repeater bus interface is simple. An example of

this is shown in Figure 7.

For a stackable hub design, the DP83850C's Inter

Repeater Bus connections are complex and have many

issues regarding signal timing, loading and layout.

example design for a TTL level inter repeater bus is given

in Figure 8. It should be noted that this is a single example

of possible connections to an inter repeater bus. There are

many other possible ways to design this interface. Design-

ers should be aware that timing, particularly skew between

clock and data, is critical. For this reason, the use of LS, S,

TTL, or CMOS logic drivers is not recommended. The ABT

family of logic is recommended, as well as the FAST® fam-

ily could possibly be made to work too. Also recommended
