100BASE-X Network Operations

During 100BASE-X operation, the LXT971A transmits and receives 5-bit symbols across the

network link. Figure 14 shows the structure of a standard frame packet. When the MAC is not

actively transmitting data, the LXT971A sends out Idle symbols on the line.

In 100BASE-TX mode, the LXT971A scrambles and transmits the data to the network using MLT-

3 line code (Figure 15 on page 37). MLT-3 signals received from the network are de-scrambled,

decoded, and sent across the MII to the MAC.

In 100BASE-FX mode, the LXT971A transmits and receives NRZI signals across the LVPECL

interface. An external 100FX transceiver module is required to complete the fiber connection. To

enable 100BASE-FX operation, auto-negotiation must be disabled and FX selected.
