Product description  
The AX88873 10/100Mbps Dual Speed repeater Controller is a counterpart of AX88872 without built in 4-ports  
switch. It is design for low cost dual speed dumb HUB application.  
The AX88873 directly supports up-to eight 10/100Mbps automatic links RMII interfaces. Maximum up-to 96  
repeater ports can be constructed by stacking 1 AX88872 and 2 AX88873 chips horizontally and then cascading 4  
horizontal boards vertically.  
With using 128-pin low cost package, accompany with AX88872 to build up low cost dual speed repeater application.  
Not only perform the repeater function but gain additional 2 switch ports. The 2 dual speed switch ports are connected  
to external MII or RMII interfaces PHY for various applications. For example, one port is use for down link and the  
other is used for up link to extend the network topology. The other case is one port for up link and the other port for  
server.  
The AX88873 is designed base on IEEE 802.3u clause 27 “ Repeater for 100Mb/s base-band networks” It is fully  
compatible with IEEE 802.3u standard. Please refer Ax872-11.doc to get more information about AX88872.

1.0 AX88873 Overview  
1.1 General Description  
The AX88873 is a simple dual speed repeater that provides two expansion buses for 10M and 100M  
segments respectively. Accompany with AX88872 (build-in a 4-port switch) can construct high port  
count (16 ports or 24 ports) application and gain 2 additional switch ports. Additional two switch  
ports are also useful for up-link or connection of server.  
The pin count of chip is reduced to 128 when design uses RMII I/F instead of MII. It is not only  
simplify the design but also user can choose low cost RMII Quad PHY.

Description  
SPEED0

103  
Speed Select : SPEED0 is not standard RMII signal. This signal is  
sourced from PHY to inform repeater whether 10M or 100M speed is  
auto-negociated. Active for 10Mbps speed is selected depending on  
power on configuration.  
CRS_DV0  
I
104  
Carrier Sense/Receive Data Valid  
: CRS_DV is asserted  
asynchronously on detection of carrier. CRS_DV is asserted by the PHY  
when receive medium is non-idle. Loss of carrier shall result in the  
desertion of CRS_DV synchronous to the cycle of REF_CLK, which  
presents the first DI-bit of a nibble on to RXD0[1:0].  
RXD0[1:0]

106,105  
Receive Data : RXD0[1:0] is synchronous to REF_CLK  
RXD0[1:0] shall be “00” to indicate idle when CRS_DV is disserted.  
Value other than “00” are reserved for out-of-band signaling shall be  
ignored by MAC Upon assertion of CRS_DV, PHY shall ensure that  
RXD[1:0] = “00” until proper receive decoding takes place  
Transmit Enable : TXEN0 is synchronous to REF_CLK.  
TXEN0 indicates that MAC is presenting DI-bits on TXD[1:0] for  
transmission. TXEN0 shall be negated prior to the 1st REF_CLK rising  
edge following the final DI-bit of a frame  
Transmit Data : TXD0[1:0] shall transition synchronously to  
REF_CLK. TXD0[1:0] shall be “00” to indicate idle when TX_EN is  
disserted. Value other than “00” are reserved for out-of-band signaling  
shall be ignored by PHY. When TX_EN is asserted, TXD[1:0] are  
accepted for transmission by PHY

Repeater Identification Number Daisy-Chain In : When MODE=1,  
This pin is a daisy chain serial input for Repeater ID. A state machine always

This pin is periodically shift out the RID of itself to the next chained chip to  
inform that this ID has already been occupied. The RID is shift out  
periodically every about 200us.

All of the above signals are pull-up for default values.  
Note 1 :  
The calculation formulae of Traffic Utilization between ASIX and NetCom is difference, so you will get different results  
when using SmartBit (SB) testing this item.  
We found the SmartBit calculate the Utilization without include 96 Bit time inter frame gap (IFG). So the utilization  
value can be 100%. As well as we found SB used min packet size (64 byte) and min IFG (96 bit-time) as 100% utilization.  
In theory, when max packet size (1518 byte) and min IFG the utilization will be more than 100%, but SB also treat it as  
100%.  
In our AX88873 design, we use real cable bandwidth as calculation base. We calculate the bit counts of carrier within a  
unit time. Because of the existence of inter frame gap, In our calculation 100% utilization is impossible. So the above two  
cases (64 byte packet size and 1518 byte packet size with min. IFG), we will count as 85.7% and 99.2%.  
If using SB test result to indicate utilization LED the value must be modified. See the following reference table.

PRELIMINARY  
3.0 Functional Description  
3.1 Repeater State Machine  
The repeater state machine is in idle state when there is no carrier presented on any ports . When there is only  
one port has receive activity, the repeater state machine will enter data -forwarding state to ensure correct  
data forwarding to other connected ports. If collision happens anytime, The repeater state machine detects  
collision then send jam pattern to all ports until collision ceases.  
3.2 RXE /TXE Control  
Idle state  
CRS_DV(ALL) = 0, the repeater sends no data to any port.  
RXE(ALL) = 0.  
TXE(ALL) = 0.  
Data Forwarding state  
If CRS_DV(ALL) = 1, N is the only one port that has incoming packet.  
RXE(N) = 1, RXE(ALLXN) = 0.  
TXE(N) = 0, TXE(ALLXN) = 1.  
Collision state  
If CRS_DV(ALL) > 1, the repeater sends jam pattern to all ports.  
RXE(ALL) = 0.  
TXE(ALL) = 1.  
One Port Left state  
When all packets are back off except only one port still has activity, that is CRS_DV(ALL) = 1 again . N is the  
only one left port that has incoming packet. The repeater sends jam pattern to all other port except for the still  
activity ports.  
RXE(ALL) = 0.  
TXE(ALLXN) = 1.  
3.3 Jabber State Machine  
To prevent an illegally long reception of data from reaching the repeater unit, each port has its own jabber  
timer. If a reception exceeds this duration (64K bit times for AX88872A), the jabber condition will be detected.  
In this condition, repeater unit will disable receive and transmit packets for the jabbered port and the other ports  
remain the normal operation.  
When the carrier is no longer detected for the jabbered port or reset the repeater, the jabber state will be existed  
and the port will receive and transmit packets normally.  
3.4 Partition State Machine  
The partition state machine is used to protect network from being upset when a port suffer continuous  
collision, each port uses a partition state machine to detect and prevent this condition. When a port suffers from  
continuous 64 times of collision events, then it goes to Partition State. The partitioned port will be not released  
until a packet without collision be transmitted( more than 512 bit times for AX88872A) or reset the repeater.
