PCnetâ„¢-FAST Enhanced 10/100 Mbps PCI Ethernet Controller with OnNow Support
Description:
The Am79C972 PCnet-FAST+ controller is a highlyintegrated 32-bit full-duplex, 10/100-Megabit per second (Mbps) Ethernet controller solution, designed to address high-performance system application requirements. It is a flexible bus mastering device that can be used in any application, including network-ready PCs and bridge/router designs. The bus master architecture provides high data throughput and low CPU and system bus utilization. The Am79C972 controller is fabricated with advanced low-power 3.3-V CMOS process to provide low operating current for power sensitive applications.
The Am79C972 PCnet-FAST+ controller also has several enhancements over its predecessor, the Am79C971 PCnet-FAST device. In addition to integrating the SRAM on chip, it further reduces system implementation cost by the addition of a new EEPROM programmable pin (PHY_RST), an internal oscillator circuit eliminating the need for an external crystal, and the integration of the PAL function needed for Magic Packet application. The PHY_RST pin is implemented to reset the external PHY without increasing the load to the PCI bus and to block RST to the PHY when PG input is LOW.
The 32-bit multiplexed bus interface unit provides a direct interface to the PCI local bus, simplifying the design of an Ethernet node in a PC system. The
Am79C972 PCnet-FAST+ controller provides the complete interface to an Expansion ROM or Flash device allowing add-on card designs with only a single load per PCI bus interface pin. With its built-in support for both little and big endian byte alignment, this controller also addresses non-PC applications. The Am79C972 controller’s advanced CMOS design allows the bus interface to be connected to either a +5-V or a +3.3-V signaling environment. A compliant IEEE 1149.1 JTAG test interface for board-level testing is also provided, as well as a NAND tree test structure for those systems that cannot support the JTAG interface.
The Am79C972 PCnet-FAST+ controller is also compliant with the PC97, PC98, and Net PC specifications.
It includes the full implementation of the Microsoft On Now and ACPI specifications, which are backward compatible with the Magic Packet technology, and is compliant with the PCI Bus Power Management Interface Specification by supporting the four power management states (D0, D1, D2, and D3), the optional PME pin, and the necessary configuration and data registers.
The Am79C972 PCnet-FAST+ controller is ideally suited for Network PC (Net PC), motherboard, network interface card (NIC), and embedded designs. It is available in a 160-pin Plastic Quad Flat Pack (PQFP) package and also in a 176-pin Thin Quad Flat Pack (TQFP) package for form factor sensitive designs.
The Am79C972 PCnet-FAST+ controller is a complete
Ethernet node integrated into a single VLSI device. It contains a bus interface unit, a Direct Memory Access (DMA) Buffer Management Unit, an ISO/IEC 8802-3(IEEE 802.3)-compliant Media Access Controller
(MAC), a large Transmit FIFO and a large Receive FIFO, and an IEEE 802.3-compliant MII. Both IEEE802.3 compliant full-duplex and half-duplex operations are supported on the MII and GPSI interfaces. 10/100 Mbps operation is supported through the MII.
The Am79C972 PCnet-FAST+ controller is register compatible with the LANCE™ (Am7990) and CLANCE™ (Am79C90) Ethernet controllers, and all Ethernet controllers in the PCnet Family except ILACC™ (Am79C900), including the PCnet-ISA™ controller (Am79C960), PCnet-ISA+™ (Am79C961), PCnet-ISA II™ (Am79C961A), PCnet-32™
(Am79C965), PCnet-PCI™ (Am79C970), PCnet-PCI II™ (Am79C970A), and the PCnet-FAST™
(Am79C971). The Buffer Management Unit supports the LANCE and PCnet descriptor software models.
The Am79C972 PCnet-FAST+ controller supports auto-configuration in the PCI configuration space.
Additional Am79C972 controller configuration parameters, including the unique IEEE physical address, can be read from an external nonvolatile memory (EEPROM) immediately following system reset.
In addition, the device provides programmable on-chip
LED drivers for transmit, receive, collision, link integrity, Magic Packet status, activity, address match, full-duplex, or 100 Mbps status. The Am79C972 controller also provides an EADI to allow external hardware address filtering in internetworking applications and a receive frame tagging feature
