DESCRIPTION

PCI INTERFACE (CONTINUED)

PPERR

24

I/O

PCI parity error. PPERR indicates a data parity error on all PCI transactions except special cycles.

PREQ

134

I/O

PCI bus request. PREQ is asserted by the TNETE100PM to request control of the PCI bus. This is not

a shared signal.

PRST

129

I

PCI reset signal. Power-down-enable configuration.

The PRST pin must be connected to a reset signal (VAUXGOOD) by the auxiliary power supply. This

pin resets the TNETE100PM on initial power up only. When PRST is asserted low, the TNETE100PM

performs the following internal functions:

• Resets all TNETE100PM registers and state machines

• Puts all PCI outputs (and IEEE standard JTAG pins) in high impedance mode

asynchronously

PCI reset signal. Clock-run-enable configuration.

The PRST pin should be connected to the PRST signal for the system. When PRST is asserted low,

the TNETE100PM performs the following internal functions:

• Resets TNETE100PM registers and state machines

• Puts all PCI outputs (and IEEE standard JTAG pins) in high impedance mode

asynchronously

PSERR

25

O/D

PCI system error. PSERR indicates parity errors or special cycle data parity errors.

PSTOP

23

I/O

PCI stop. PSTOP indicates the current target is requesting the master to stop the current transaction.

I/O

EPROM address / data. EAD[7:0] is a multiplexed byte-bus that is used to address and read data from

an external BIOS ROM.

• On the cycle when EXLE is asserted low, EAD[7:0] is driven with the high byte of the

address.

• On the cycle when EALE is asserted low, EAD[7:0] is driven with the low byte of the

address.

• When EOE is asserted, BIOS ROM data should be placed on the bus.

These pins also can be used to drive external-status LEDs. Low-current (2 – 5 mA) LEDs can be

connected directly (through appropriate resistors). High-current LEDs can be driven through buffers

or from the BIOS ROM address latches.

EALE

65

O

EPROM address latch enable. EALE is driven low to latch the low (least significant) byte of the BIOS

ROM address from EAD[0 :7].

EOE

64

O

EPROM output enable. When EOE is active (low), EAD[0 :7] is in the high-impedance mode and the

output of the BIOS ROM should be placed on EAD[0 :7].

EXLE

66

O

EPROM extended address latch enable. EXLE is driven low to latch the high (most significant) byte

of the BIOS ROM address from EAD[0 :7].

CONFIGURATION EEPROM INTERFACE

EDCLK

68

O

EEPROM data clock. EDCLK transfers serial clocked data to the 2K-bit serial EEPROMs (24C02)

(see Note 1). EDCLK requires an external pullup for EEPROM operation.

EDIO

69

I/O

EEPROM data I / O. EDIO is the bidirectional serial data / address line to the 2K-bit serial EEPROM

(24C02). EDIO requires an external pullup for EEPROM operation. Tying EDIO to ground disables the

EEPROM interface and prevents autoconfiguration of the PCI configuration register.

MEDIA-INDEPENDENT INTERFACE (100-Mbps CSMA / CD AND DEMAND PRIORITY)

MCOL

80

I

Collision sense

• In CSMA/CD mode, assertion of MCOL indicates a network collision.

• In demand-priority mode, MCOL (active low) is used to acknowledge a transmission request.

The TNETE100PM begins frame transmission 50 MTCLK cycles after the assertion (low) of

MCOL.
