RX_CTL is Receive Data Valid, and RXER is Receive Error.  
When both RXER and RXDV are asserted, error symbol is received  
from the cable.  
When RXER is asserted with RXDV is de-asserted, it means false  
carrier or carrier extension symbol is detected on the cable.

RTL8211B(L)  
Datasheet  
6. Function Description  
6.1. Transmitter  
Based on state-of-the-art DSP technology and mixed-mode signal processing technology, the RTL8211B(L)  
is capable of operating at 10/100/1000Mbps link speed over standard CAT.5 UTP cable and CAT.3 UTP  
cable (10Mbps).  
6.1.1. RGMII (1000Mbps) Mode  
The RTL8211B(L)’s PCS layer receives data bytes from the MAC through the RGMII interface and  
performs the generation of continuous code-groups through 4D-PAM5 coding technology. Then, those  
code groups are passed through a waveform-shaping filter to minimize EMI effect, and are transmitted onto  
the 4-pair CAT5 cable at 125MBaud/s through a D/A converter.  
6.1.2. MII (100Mbps) Mode  
The transmitted 4-bit nibbles (TXD[3:0]) from the MAC, clocked at 25Mhz (TXC), are converted into 5B  
symbol code through 4B/5B coding technology, then through scrambling and serializing, are converted to  
125Mhz NRZ and NRZI signals. After that, the NRZI signal are passed to the MLT3 encoder, then to the  
D/A converter and transmitted onto the media.  
6.1.3. MII (10Mbps) Mode  
The transmit 4-bit nibbles (TXD[3:0]) from the MAC, clocked at 2.5Mhz (TXC), are serialized into  
10Mbps serial data. Then, the 10Mbps serial data is converted into a Manchester-encoded data stream and  
is transmitted onto the media by the D/A converter.

RTL8211B(L)  
Datasheet  
6.2. Receiver  
6.2.1. RGMII (1000Mbps) Mode  
Input signals from the media first pass through the on-chip sophisticated hybrid circuit to subtract the  
transmitted signal from the input signal for effective reduction of near-end echo. Afterwards, the received  
signal is processed with state-of-the-art technology, such as adaptive equalization, BLW (Baseline Wander)  
correction, cross-talk cancellation, echo cancellation, timing recovery, error correction, and 4D-PAM5  
decoding. Then, the 8-bit-wide data is recovered and is sent to the RGMII interface at a clock speed of  
125MHz. The Rx MAC retrieves the packet data from the receive MII/RGMII interface and sends it to the  
Rx Buffer Manager.  
6.2.2. MII (100Mbps) Mode  
The MLT3 signal is processed with an ADC, equalizer, BLW (Baseline Wander) correction, timing  
recovery, MLT3 and NRZI decoder, descrambler, 4B/5B decoder, and is then presented to the MII interface  
in 4-bit-wide nibbles at a clock speed of 25MHz.  
6.2.3. MII (10Mbps) Mode  
The received differential signal is converted into a Manchester-encoded stream first. Next, the stream is  
processed with a Manchester decoder, and is de-serialized into 4-bit-wide nibbles. The 4-bit nibbles are  
presented to the MII interface at a clock speed of 2.5MHz.  
6.3. Hardware Configuration  
The operation speed, interface mode, and PHY address can be set by the CONFIG[9:0] pins. The respective  
value mapping of CONFIG[9:0] with the configurable vector is listed in Table 11. To set the CONFIG[9:0]  
pins, the externally pull-high or pull-low by resister are required.

RTL8211B(L)  
Datasheet  
6.4. MAC/PHY Interface  
The RTL8211B(L) supports several industry standards and is suitable for most off-the-shelf MACs with an  
MII/RGMII interface. They are enabled by hardware configuration bit MODE. The MII interface supports  
up to 100Mbps operation, and the RGMII interface supports up to 1000Mbps operation.  
6.4.1. MII  
In 100Base-TX and 10Base-T modes (MII mode is selected), TXC and RXC sources are 25MHz and  
2.5MHz, respectively. TXC will always be generated by the MAC and RXC will always be generated by  
the PHY. TXD[3:0] and RXD[3:0] signals are used for date transitions.  
6.4.2. RGMII  
In 1000Base-T mode (RGMII interface is selected), TXC and RXC sources are 125MHz. TXC will always  
be generated by the MAC and RXC will always be generated by the PHY. TXD[3:0] and RXD[3:0] signals  
are used for date transitions on rising edge and on falling edge of clock.  
6.4.3. Management Interface  
The management interface provides access to the internal registers through the MDC and MDIO pins as  
described in IEEE 802.3u section 22. The MDC signal, provided by the MAC, is the management data  
clock reference to the MDIO signal. The MDIO is the management data input/output and is a bi-directional  
signal that runs synchronously to MDC. The MDIO pin needs a 10k Ohm pull-up resistor to maintain the  
MDIO high during idle and turnaround.  
Preamble suppression (register bit 1.6 = 1) is the default setting of the RTL8211B(L) after power-on.  
However, there still must be at least one idle bit between operations.  
Up to 32 RTL8211B(L)s can share the same MDIO line. In switch/router applications, each port should be  
assigned a unique address during the hardware reset sequence, and it can only be addressed via that unique  
PHY address. For detailed information on the RTL8211B(L) management registers, see section 7. Register  
Descriptions, page 22.

6.4.4. Interrupt  
Whenever there is a status change on the media that the RTL8211B(L) detected, the RTL8211B(L) will  
drive the interrupt pin (INTB) low to issue an interrupt event. The MAC senses the status change and  
accesses the registers through the MDC/MDIO interface in response. Register 18 (Table 31, page 32)  
controls the mask to enable which events will assert the interrupt (INTB) signal, and register 19 (Table 32,  
page 32) is the interrupt status register and reflects which interrupt events have occurred, even though the  
corresponding bits in register 18 are not set.  
The value of register 19 is cleared automatically when register 19 is read through MDC/MDIO, and the  
INTB is de-asserted at the same time. The RTL8211B(L) interrupt function removes the need for  
continuous polling through the MDC/MDIO management interface.

6.5. Auto-Negotiation  
Auto-Negotiation is a mechanism to determine the fastest connection between two link partners. For copper  
media applications, it was introduced in IEEE 802.3u for Ethernet and Fast Ethernet, and then in  
IEEE 802.3ab to address extended functions for Gigabit Ethernet. It performs the following:  
Auto-Negotiation Priority Resolution  
Auto-Negotiation Master/Slave Resolution  
Auto-Negotiation PAUSE/ASYMMETRIC PAUSE Resolution  
Crossover Detection & Auto-Correction Resolution  
Upon de-assertion of a hardware reset, the RTL8211B(L) can be configured to have auto-negotiation  
enabled, or be forced to operate in 10Base-T, 100Base-TX, or 1000Base-T mode via the CONFIG[4:0] pins  
(see section 6.3 Hardware Configuration, page 10). If the RTL8211B(L) is configured to operate only in  
1000Base-T mode, then auto-negotiation is still enabled with only 1000Base-T mode advertised.  
The auto-negotiation process is initiated automatically upon any of the following:  
Power-up  
Hardware reset  
Software reset (register 0.15)  
Restart auto-negotiation (register 0.9)  
Transition from power down to power up (register 0.11)

6.5.1. Auto-Negotiation Priority Resolution  
Upon the start of auto-negotiation, to advertise its capabilities, each station transmits a 16-bit packet called  
a Link Code Word (LCW), within a burst of 17 to 33 Fast Link Pulses (FLP). A device capable of  
auto-negotiation transmits and receives the FLPs. The receiver must identify three identical LCWs before  
the information is authenticated and used in the arbitration process. The devices decode the base LCW and  
select capabilities with the highest common denominator supported by both devices.  
To advertise 1000Base-T capability, both link partners, sharing the same link medium, should engage in  
Next Page (1000Base-T Message Page, Unformatted Page 1, and Unformatted Page 2) exchange.  
Auto-negotiation ensures that the highest priority protocol will be selected as the link speed based on the  
following priority advertised through the Link Code Word (LCW) exchange. Refer to IEEE 802.3 Clause  
28 for detailed information.  
1. 1000Base-T full duplex (highest priority)  
2. 1000Base-T half duplex  
3. 100Base-TX full duplex  
4. 100Base-TX half duplex  
5. 10Base-T full duplex  
6. 10Base-T half duplex (lowest priority)

6.5.2. Auto-Negotiation Master/Slave Resolution  
To establish a valid 1000Base-T link, the Master/Slave mode of both link partners should be resolved  
through the auto-negotiation process:  
Master Priority:  
ƒ Multi-port > Single port  
ƒ Manual > Non-manual  
Determination of Master/Slave configuration from LCW:  
ƒ Manual_MASTER = U0 * U1  
ƒ Manual_SLAVE = U0 * !U1  
ƒ Single-port device = !U0 * !U2  
ƒ Multi-port device = !U0 * U2  
Where:  
U0 is bit 0 of the Unformatted Page 1  
U1 is bit 1 of the Unformatted Page 1  
U2 is bit 2 of the Unformatted Page 1  
Where there are two stations with the same configuration, the one with higher Master-Slave seed  
SB[10:0] in the unformatted page 2 shall become Master.  
Master-Slave configuration process resolution:  
ƒ Successful: Bit 10.15 Master-Slave Configuration Fault is set to logical 0, and bit 10.14 is set to  
logical 1 for Master resolution, or set to logical 0 for Slave resolution.  
ƒ Unsuccessful: Auto-Negotiation restarts.  
ƒ Fault detect: Bit 10.15 is set to logical 1 to indicate that a configuration fault has been detected.  
Auto-Negotiation restarts automatically. This happens when both stations are set to manual  
Master mode or manual Slave mode, or after seven attempts to configure the Master-Slave  
relationship through the seed method has failed.  
6.5.3. Auto-Negotiation PAUSE/ASYMMETRIC PAUSE Resolution  
Auto-negotiation is also used to determine the flow control capability between link partners. Flow control  
is a mechanism that can force a busy transmitting link partner to stop transmitting in a full duplex  
environment by sending special MAC control frames. In IEEE 802.3u, a PAUSE control frame had already  
been defined. However, in IEEE 802.3ab, a new ASY-PAUSE control frame was defined; if the MAC can  
only generate PAUSE frames but is not able to respond to PAUSE frames generated by the link partner,  
then it is called Asymmetric PAUSE.  
PAUSE/ASYMMETRIC PAUSE capability can be configured by setting the ANAR bits 10 and 11 (Table  
21). Link partner PAUSE capabilities can be determined from ANLPAR bits 10 and 11 (Table 22). A PHY  
layer device such as the RTL8211B(L) is not directly involved in PAUSE resolution, but simply advertises  
and reports PAUSE capabilities during the Auto-Negotiation process. The MAC is responsible for final  
PAUSE/ASYMMETRIC PAUSE resolution after a link is established, and is responsible for correct flow  
control actions thereafter.

6.6. Crossover Detection & Auto-Correction  
Ethernet needs a crossover mechanism between both link partners to cross the transmit signal to the  
receiver when the medium is twisted-pair cable (e.g. CAT.3 or CAT.5 UTP). Crossover Detection &  
Auto-Correction Configuration eliminates the need for crossover cables between devices, such as two PC’s  
connected to each other with a CAT.3 or CAT.5 Ethernet cable. The basic concept is to assume the initial  
default setting is MDI mode, and then check the link status. If no link is established after a certain time,  
change to MDI Crossover mode and repeat the process until a link is established. An 11-bit pseudo-random  
timer is applied to decide the mode change time interval.  
Crossover Detection & Auto-Correction is not a part of the Auto-Negotiation process, but it utilizes the  
process to exchange the MDI/MDI Crossover configuration. If the RTL8211B(L) is configured to only  
operate in 100Base-TX or only in 10Base-T mode, then Auto-Negotiation is disabled only if the Crossover  
Detection & Auto-Correction function is also disabled. If Crossover Detection & Auto-Correction are  
enabled, then Auto-Negotiation is enabled and the RTL8211B(L) advertises only 100Base-TX mode or  
10Base-T mode. If the speed of operation is configured manually and Auto-Negotiation is still enabled  
because the Crossover Detection & Auto-Correction function is enabled, then the duplex advertised is as  
follows:  
1. If CONFIG is set to half duplex, then only half duplex is advertised.  
2. If CONFIG is set to full duplex, then both full and half duplex are advertised.  
If the user wishes to advertise only full duplex at a particular speed with the Crossover Detection &  
Auto-Correction function enabled, then Auto-Negotiation should be enabled (register 0.12) with the  
appropriate advertising capabilities set in registers 4 or 9. The Crossover Detection & Auto-Correction  
function may be enabled/disabled by setting (register 16.6) manually.  
After initial configuration following a hardware reset, Auto-Negotiation can be enabled and disabled via  
register 0.12, speed via registers 0.13, 0.6, and duplex via register 0.8. The abilities that are advertised can  
be changed via registers 4 and 9. Changes to registers 0.12, 0.13, 0.6, and 0.8 do not take effect unless at  
least one of the following events occurs:  
Software reset (register 0.15)  
Restart of Auto-Negotiation (register 0.9)  
Transition from power-down to power-up (register 0.11)

RTL8211B(L)  
Datasheet  
Registers 4 and 9 are internally latched once each time Auto-Negotiation enters the ABILITY DETECT  
state in the arbitration state machine (IEEE 802.3). Hence a write into register 4 or 9 has no effect once the  
RTL8211B(L) begins to transmit Fast Link Pulses.  
Register 7 is treated in a similar manner as 4 and 9 during additional Next Page exchanges. Once the  
RTL8211B(L) completes Auto-Negotiation, it updates the various statuses in registers 1, 5, 6, and 10. The  
speed, duplex, page received, and Auto-Negotiation completed statuses are also available in registers 17  
and 19.  
6.7. LED Configuration  
The RTL8211B(L) supports six LED pins, suitable for multiple types of applications, that can directly drive  
the LEDs. These pins are LED10, LED100, LED1000, LEDDUP, LEDRX, and LEDTX. The output of  
these pins is determined by setting the corresponding bits in register 24. The functionality of the LED pins  
is shown in Table 15.

Some of the statuses can be pulse-stretched. Pulse-stretching is necessary because the duration of these  
status events may be too short to be observable on the LEDs. The pulse-stretch duration can be programmed  
via register 24.14:12. The default pulse-stretch duration is 42 to 84ms. The pulse-stretch duration applies to  
all applicable LEDs. Some of the statuses indicate multiple events by blinking LEDs. The blink period can  
be programmed via register 24.10:8. The default blink setting is ‘No blinking’. The blink rate applies to all  
applicable LEDs.

6.8. Polarity Correction  
The RTL8211B(L) automatically corrects polarity errors on the receive pairs in 1000Base-T and 10Base-T  
modes. In 100Base-TX polarity is irrelevant. In 1000Base-T mode, receive polarity errors are automatically  
corrected based on the sequence of idle symbols. Once the descrambler is locked, the polarity is also locked  
on all pairs. The polarity becomes unlocked only when the receiver loses lock. In 10Base-T mode, polarity  
errors are corrected based on the detection of validly spaced link pulses. The detection begins during the  
MDI crossover detection phase and locks when the 10Base-T link is up. The polarity becomes unlocked  
when the link is down.  
6.9. Power  
The RTL8211B(L) implements two voltage regulators to generate operating power. The system vendor  
needs to supply a 3.3V, 1A steady power source. The RTL8211B(L) converts the 3.3V steady power source  
to 1.8V and 1.5V with two separate transistors. The transistor should have a beta value large enough to  
supply sufficient current for internal logic. A transistor with beta value larger than 100 is recommended.  
Another implementation is using three regulators to generate 3.3V, 1.8V, and 1.5V. Note that the regulators  
need to meet the required rate current.  
The RTL8211B(L) implements an option for the DVDD33 power pins. The I/O voltage of the RGMII  
interface=3.3V (2.5V tolerance).
