GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Several ML4642s can be cascaded together to implement a 4 or 8 port MAU or stand-alone device. Logic within the ML4642 detects collisions resulting from multiple DTEs transmitting simultaneously. In addition, collision signals received from a transceiver attached at the MAU port are propagated to both of the DTE ports. Jabbering DTEs are prevented from loading down the network by internal jabber timers which disable babbling ports. s FEATURES
IEEE 802.3 compliant AUI interfaces assure compatibility with any AUI ready devices No crystal or clock input On-chip Jabber logic, Collision Detection, and SQE test with enable/disable option Selectable Loopback, Jabber, and SQE Test allows cascading of multiple chips to increase DTE port s s s BLOCK DIAGRAM +5V 61.9K RRSET VCC VCC CONTROL LOGIC TXIN1P TXIN1N RXOUT1P RXOUT1N CDOUT1P CDOUT1N TXIN2P TXIN2N RXOUT2P RXOUT2N CDOUT2P CDOUT2N LED DRIVERS MAU AUI INTERFACE CI MUX MAU AUI INTERFACE JABBER DO MUX DTE AUI INTERFACE TXOUT...
