NOTE:
A bilingual port can only connect to a 1394b-only port that operates at S400b. It
cannot establish a connection to a S200b or S100b port. A port that has been forced
to S400b (B4) can connect to a 1394b-only port at S400b (B4) or S200b (B2) or
S100b (B1). A port that has been forced to S200b can connect to a 1394b-only port at
S200b or S100b. A port that has been forced to S100b can only connect to a
1394b-only port at S100b.
The TESTM, SE, and SM terminals are used to set up various manufacturing test conditions. For normal
operation, the TESTM terminal must be connected to V
DD
through a 1-k Ω resistor. The SE and SM terminals
must be tied to ground through a 1-k Ω resistor.
Three package terminals are used as inputs to set the default value for three configuration status bits in the
self-ID packet. They can be pulled high through a 1-k Ω resistor or hardwired low as a function of the equipment
design. In some speed/mode selections the S2_PC0, S1_PC1, and S0_PC2 terminals indicate the default
power-class status for the node (the need for power from the cable or the ability to supply power to the cable);
see Table 2 . The contender bit in the PHY register set indicates that the node is a contender either for the
isochronous resource manager (IRM) or for the bus manager (BM). On the TSB41BA3D, this bit can only be set
by a write to the PHY register set. If a node is a contender for IRM or BM, then the node software must set this
bit in the PHY register set.
The LPS (link power status) terminal works with the S5_LKON terminal to manage the power usage in the node.
The LPS signal from the LLC is used with the LCtrl bit (see Table 4 and Table 5 in the APPLICATION
INFORMATION section) to indicate the active/power status of the LLC. The LPS signal also resets, disables, and
initializes the PHY-LLC interface (the state of the PHY-LCC interface is controlled solely by the LPS input
regardless of the state of the LCtrl bit).
NOTE:
The TSB41BA3D does not have a cable-not-active (CNA) terminal. To achieve a
similar function, the individual PHY ports can be set up to issue interrupts whenever
the port changes state. If the LPS terminal is low, then this generates a link-on
(LKON) output clock. See register bits PIE, PEI, and WDIE along with the individual
interrupt bits.
The LPS input is considered inactive if it remains low for more than the LPS_RESET time (see the LPS terminal
definition) and is considered active otherwise. When the TSB41BA3D detects that the LPS input is inactive, the
PHY-LLC interface is placed into a low-power reset state in which the CTL and D outputs are held in the logic 0
state and the LREQ input is ignored; however, the PCLK output remains active. If the LPS input remains low for
more than the LPS_DISABLE time (see the LPS terminal definition), then the PHY-LLC interface is put into a
low-power disabled state in which the PCLK output is also held inactive. The TSB41BA3D continues the
necessary repeater functions required for normal network operation regardless of the state of the PHY-LLC
interface. When the interface is in the reset or disabled state and the LPS input is again observed active, the
PHY initializes the interface and returns to normal operation. The PHY-LLC interface is also held in the disabled
state during hardware reset. When the LPS terminal is returned to an active state after being sensed as having
entered the LPS_DISABLE time, the TSB41BA3D issues a bus reset. This broadcasts the node self-ID packet,
which contains the updated L bit state (the PHY LLC now being accessible).
The PHY uses the S5_LKON terminal to notify the LLC to power up and become active. When activated, the
output S5_LKON signal is a square wave. The PHY activates the S5_LKON output when the LLC is inactive and
a wake-up event occurs. The LLC is considered inactive when either the LPS input is inactive, as previously
described, or the LCtrl bit is cleared to 0. A wake-up event occurs when a link-on PHY packet addressed to this
node is received, or conditionally when a PHY interrupt occurs. The PHY deasserts the S5_LKON output when
the LLC becomes active (both LPS sensed as active and the LCtrl bit set to 1). The PHY also deasserts the
S5_LKON output when a bus reset occurs, unless a PHY interrupt condition exists which would otherwise cause
S5_LKON to be active. If the PHY is power-cycled and the power class is 0 through 4, then the PHY asserts
S5_LKON for approximately 167 s or until both the LPS is active and the LCtrl bit is 1.
